Erasing Women and Women’s Safe Spaces
07/04/2022 - The secrecy of Stonewall is finally breaking down - The Post
The organization Sex Matters is working to uncover the influence that Stonewall has in workplaces in the UK. In another small sign of the changing tides, the Information Commissioner’s Office, a non-departmental public body that monitors transparency of public offices and data privacy of individuals, has warned government offices that Stonewall is a charity and therefore not a politically-neutral body with authority to direct policies that government adopts. This comes after it has become clear that these agencies are enacting policies supporting gender ideology in deference to Stonewall.
07/04/22 - Lesbians Assaulted By Trans Activists at Dyke March in Cologne
Women are told again and again they need to make room to protect the safety of transgender-identifying people. Yet it is always women who are targets of rape and death threats, and actual physical assaults by trans activists.
Equalities Minister Kemi Badenoch is making the push for all new non-residential constructions to have single-sex bathrooms rather than the “universal” bathrooms that have become increasingly common. Badenoch emphasizes the need for everyone to feel safe and have privacy. This follows multiple incidents of backlash over the last couple of years as parents in particular objected to school policies promoting gender neutral bathrooms, resulting in girls avoiding using the bathroom altogether due to discomfort encountering male peers there.
07/01/2022 - Halifax pro-noun name badge row sees mass closing of accounts in ‘worst PR disaster in British history’
The bank told people to take their money and leave, and the people listened: In attempt to show their value for “inclusivity,” Halifax tweeted a picture of a nametag that includes pronouns and said employees could now elect to wear such badges. This received an eyeroll response from many who saw the tweet, inspiring the bank’s social media coordinator to reply that those customers who were unhappy about the practice could close their accounts. The result? At least £450,000 in assets taken out the bank by customers.

Though the state is itself likely to see restrictions on abortion come into law in the near future, Indiana for now is seeing a huge uptick in the number of patients coming to abortion clinics from out-of-state. Women from neighboring states Kentucky and Ohio, including a 10-year-old girl whose pregnancy is the result of abuse, are going to Indiana for reproductive care at as much as four times the rate as in the past.

The Labour party is denying claims that it banned six of its parliamentarians and the Labour Women’s Declaration group from setting up a stand at the Labour conference in Liverpool that is set to take place later this year. The women promote the belief that idea of gender identity cannot supplant the reality of sex when it comes to policy. Labour denies that they turned down the women for their gender critical views, saying that the group was one of many stands that could not be accommodated due to the high number of applications for a stand.

After nearly two weeks without pushback from Twitter, an account has finally been banned after encouraging that people send a pipe bomb to the home of JK Rowling and her family. Had Rowling not herself shared a screenshot of the threat with her own thousands of followers, who is to say that anything would have been done when Twitter always silences gender critical voices over trans activist ones?

07/02/22 - Newsom pardons Sara Kruzan, imprisoned as a teen for killing man who trafficked her
Sara Kruzan spent almost 20 years in prison for killing a man who had begun abusing her at age 11. In 1995 the presiding judge made the harsh decision that then-17-year-old Kruzan should be tried as an adult, resulting in a life sentence. Kruzan’s story has been used as an example of the cruelty of the justice system, as advocates condemned how the justice system treated a juvenile and Kruzan today condemns how the justice system does not take into account the trauma affecting those who find themselves involved in the system. For more about Kruzan’s story, check out her memoir I Cried to Dream Again.

Entertainment
Macy Gray, Bette Midler, and the World Going Mad
It’s been a whirling week of seeing icons Macy Gray and Bette Midler first publicly saying what we all know, that women are a biological sex with sex-based interests, only to watch them beaten back into silence. Poor Macy especially. She rocked back and forth, utterly confused and seemingly unaware of the cesspool of today’s unreality she had stepped into, and ultimately being gaslit into submission.
Here, we’ve tried to chronicled how everything unfolded:
