Targeting a Taylor Swift concert is targeting women and girls. Again. The link between terror and male violence has to be made.

- Don't wanna get apocalyptic or anything but what an image.
- Women not just stopped from studying but will die of medical neglect . I don't know how the world sits and watches this happen, I don't know what we can do but how can this go on?Female students at a medical school in Afghanistan’s Kapisa province weep as a man announces that they are no longer allowed to continue their studies. The Taliban’s new order bans women from medical education, closing the last remaining institutions where women can learn.
00:00 - Gisèle Pelicot. Her courage is beyond words. She says she is destroyed and we cannot make that change for her but I hope she can at least feel the admiration and and gratitude of every woman who has been violated for what she is doing.
- Joan of Arc was a woman. Eddie Izzard is not a woman. Clear enough?
- I took some flak for this at the time...from those who should know better. They just don't want to know better. A woman has been punched by a biological male – is this what we now call sport?
- People in The Guardian referring to rape of children as part of a "culture war" shows their priorities. You either believe in the safeguarding of women and girls or you don't.
- The children who survived in the Columbian jungle for 40 days? One was 11 months ! The older ones must have been brilliant. It's all just incredible isn't it?
- Dear Guardian ex 'colleagues'. You pushed puberty blockers, remaining silent as I was pilloried for insisting biology matters, you signed a letter to make it impossible for me to continue there. As evidence mounts Cass, Mermaids and in the States too of harms, where are you now?
- I wish everyone would be honest about what private medicine is and what it isn't. There are no private ambulances, v little intensive care. When you are in trouble/emergency it is the NHS we ALL use.
- The courts have spelled out what our politicians are too scared to say: trans women aren’t women
- Police removing lesbians from Cardiff Pride. Right side of history boys?
- Gender neutral means relegating women and elevating men. And if you don't understand that you really have not been paying attention.
- Sad thing about Izzard is that women of my generation adored him as a funny Gender Non Comforming bloke. V def a bloke in whatever clothes he wore. Now we feel disrespected cos he says those clothes magically make him something no 60 year old can ever be : a girl.
