    More fun at parliament yesterday by the looks of things.

    Wellington - LIVE

    Wellington - LIVE

    We're here at parliament where the Trans Rights rally is taking place, run by The Anti-Fascist Coalition. 🌈 On the other side of parliament groups from Speak Up For Women are arriving to protest.

    Certainly nothing more grown up and a way to create a sensible argument than a sign saying ‘Fuck off facist’

    I’m also curious what “rights” they supposedly don’t have compared to others ?

    Clever little trick that - calling yourself "anti-fascist".
    Like you have already won the argument without making any.

    Wonder what happens if a group against some of these trans-rights also called themselves "anti-facist" - as in anti left wing fascism.

    Instead of making up new words I think some of them need to look up well known words like ‘hypocrite’ and ‘irony’ in the dictionary

    That chick in pink was hot til she opened her mouth.

    Piers speaks so much sense here.

    Old mate in the US was great too.

    When they spoke to the Aussie PM and he correctly identified what a woman is I had a horrible feeling they were going to move on to our sorry leaders explanation right after. Thank fuck they didn’t.

    Jesus H Christ

    Who the fuck is in charge?

    From 3:40

    TalkTV’s Julia Hartley-Brewer accuses Adidas of “mocking women” by using a male model to advertise their 2023 Pride women's swimsuit.

    “Does the price of this WOMEN'S swimsuit include the cost of the sock to shove down my crotch? Unlike the model, I don’t have a penis and testicles!”

    The whole thing is completely mad isn’t it? I’m 99% on her side but she doesn’t help her own argument by trying to lay it all on men. FFS the vast majority of us guys are with you this one, don’t bloody alienate us.

    Could go in a number of places ... but illustrative of the emotions in the trans debate AND the idiocy of Twitter.

    I'd usually have picked Jordan Peterson to be reasonably measured and logical but he's gone off here seemingly without watching the video. Would fit right in on TSF.

    Most of the comments following his have obviously done, or not done, the same.

    Video makes the case that sex remains binary despite atypical chromosome combinations. (Have seen a couple of similar vids from that dude before.)

    So it’s no longer just elite sport. This could suck the life out of women’s sport at all levels and more worryingly age groups.

    @MiketheSnow I used to think this, but I think they’ve got it all wrong.

    Men’s sport needs to ensure it’s welcoming for men dressed up as woman. If the argument is transitioning takes away some of your men advantages, well whose problem is that?

    The whole worlds? Or yours?

    You have women's sport or you don't.

    Simple.
