Replying to @TitaniaMcGrath
"defying her family's traditions".
As always, the key is to identify an aspect of nature or long-standing tradition and re-describe it as an oppressive social construct to be overcome.

- Replying to @ZezeRants"You ain't gotta put no 'cis' in front of my shit". Ahem. Quite.
- Replying to @GadSaadThe Gregorian calendar is Eurocentric. This kind of dangerous bigotry lends oxygen to the rhetoric of hate and division. What a shameful example of marginalisation of the other and of virulent zerophobia.
- Replying to @charlescwcooke and @EPoe187Sometimes I think the only people who really appreciate America are the bloody foreigners. Lol. Not really though. But their expression of love is surely the loudest.
- Jessica Whitaker's life mattered.
- Women in their twenties lack the ability to consent to sexual activity with men in their thirties. It can't be genuinely consensual because men in their thirties, and especially their forties, have all the power. It is therefore a highly dubious almost pedophilic relationship.
- Replying to @_KenziepuffI, for one, think men are to blame for no longer being men and not knowing how to treat women. Please, men, listen to this woman tell you how to be a man. The most important thing about a man is that he serves women. I've just about had it with men who only want to be happy.
- Stunning and brave. In other news, man finally reveals he is actually a woman. Audience goes wild with rapture.
- If gender is a social construct without any basis in sex, what precisely is one proposing to transition between?
- I denounce the A Gay as a bourgeois defender of capitalist privilege and the cisnormative binary patriarchy whose instincts are to preserve essentialist hierarchical dominance structures against marginalised and oppressed transwomen.
- Replying to @PaulBurston and @MatthewGreenf11To an epidemiologist, jogging is far more capable of transmitting due to the heavy breathing. It seems this split-second decision-making action hero upon whom we depend, whose job we couldn't do and mustn't criticise, got it wrong again. But that hardly ever happens. /s
- Replying to @FondOfBeetles and @GrogsGamutBecause they stop producing one size gamete and... Wait. No. We don't know. We have to ask them... Wait. This is a trick question. I am not obliged to answer. I will call you names. #QuestionsTheyCantAnswer
- Replying to @Sfrediin and @jburnmurdochThank you for this helpful visualisation of exponential increase.
- Replying to @tibby17 @OsborneInk and @ACLUIt's a tautological trick. Assert the conclusion in the subject and then reassert it in the predicate to create the illusion of a valid implication. Same thing with "trans women are women". Nothing new had been said. Just a verbal sleight of hand, repeated ad nauseam.
