I could not even bear to finish reading it, so appalling to me is this subject matter, but fwiw, if anyone cares...

Initially i was going to critique several issues in this article, but i'm feeling extra lazy, so shall restrict myself to a single whinge [for now...].

But of concern, this increase has not extended to ... religious institutions

Why the fuck in the name of all that is shitty & fucked should any decent rational non-delusional human ever feel "concerned" about the inexorable decline of skyfairydelusionism?

This has made me weep a bit... thank goodness... thank you, 10K non-TERF cis-women!!!

https://www.thepinknews.com/2025/05/29/cis-women-trans/

Published on Monday (26 May) Not in Our Name has already attracted signatures from more than 9,600 cis women who support the message that all women should be “united by a shared truth” that “cisgender men who abuse their power are the real threat”.

The petition goes on to say: “Throughout our lives, we have endured harassment, discrimination, violence and abuse in countless forms: from childhood catcalls to workplaces discrimination, from domestic violence to sexual assault, from being silenced in boardrooms to be being blamed for crimes committed against us.

“We know intimately what the real threat to women looks like.”

and

“Enough scapegoating of trans women by politicians who refuse to confront male violence,” the petition demanded. “Enough media sensationalism that profits from hatred while women of all backgrounds suffer real harm. Enough false feminism that abandons the most-vulnerable women, leaving all women at greater risk.

“We will speak for ourselves. We stand with our trans siblings. We demand better.”

and

“The real threat to women has never been trans women seeking to live their lives with dignity. The real threat remains what it has always been: a culture that enables male violence and blames everyone except the men who perpetrate it.”

Am reading #TheBeautifulAndDamned, F Scott Fitzgerald. I'm only part-way thru it, just beginning Book Two this morn. My early pleasure at FSF's clever language has been marred many times by my shock at his overtly misogynistic prolly, sexist defo, tones. Women are constantly "stupid", "dull", "fat", "breeders", otherwise objects of lust & for conquest, but never as respectful equals.

There's been many earlier times i was tempted to toot quotes illustrating my preceding critique, but this morning i found a new low.

The man had had the hardest blow of his life. He knew at last what he wanted, but in finding it out it seemed that he had put it forever beyond his grasp. He reached home in misery, dropped into an armchair without even removing his overcoat, and sat there for over an hour, his mind racing the paths of fruitless and wretched self-absorption. She had sent him away! That was the reiterated burden of his despair. Instead of seizing the girl and holding her by sheer strength until she became passive to his desire, instead of beating down her will by the force of his own, he had walked, defeated and powerless, from her door, with the corners of his mouth drooping and what force there might have been in his grief and rage hidden behind the manner of a whipped schoolboy. At one minute she had liked him tremendously—ah, she had nearly loved him. In the next he had become a thing of indifference to her, an insolent and efficiently humiliated man.

He had no great self-reproach—some, of course, but there were other things dominant in him now, far more urgent. He was not so much in love with Gloria as mad for her. Unless he could have her near him again, kiss her, hold her close and acquiescent, he wanted nothing more from life. By her three minutes of utter unwavering indifference the girl had lifted herself from a high but somehow casual position in his mind, to be instead his complete preoccupation. However much his wild thoughts varied between a passionate desire for her kisses and an equally passionate craving to hurt and mar her, the residue of his mind craved in finer fashion to possess the triumphant soul that had shone through those three minutes. She was beautiful—but especially she was without mercy. He must own that strength that could send him away.

This was written in 1922. Today we have epidemics of entitled dickswingers believing women are their property do do with as they wish, including rape, beat, murder. It seems that popular culture has been normalising this for far longer than i'd realised.

Repugnant.

Now wondering if i should finish this book, & indeed whether to read the other FSF's on my tablet.

Worst of all, how can i continue to hold Gatsby in such high regard?

Queensland’s puberty blockers ban has potential to cause harm, sex discrimination commissioner says

https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2025/jan/30/queenslands-puberty-blockers-ban-has-potential-to-cause-harm-sex-discrimination-commissioner-says

Potential? Potential? JFC, it is a certainty that much harm will come from this. Not necessarily only, but at least:

• all these trans kids will now be forced to undergo puberty into a locked-in wrong body
• some of those kids won't survive it, they will suicide to avoid the GD pain
• many will thence be condemned to lives of misery & shame, trying to endure existence in a body alien to them
• some of them as adults might somehow eventually find the financial means for all the expensive painful surgical procedures necessary, cognisant of the fact that for many, their hated physiology locked-in by the wrong puberty cannot be fully surgically corrected

I learned in fedi-posts/toots that yesterday/today [timezone crap] is apparently the annual Trans Day of Remembrance. I didn't know that, i didn't know there was such a thing [maybe it's a Merkan thing?]. Other times i read that it's annual Pride Day again, but similarly [though in this case yes i have heard of it] i never know it's coming, til i begin reading of it again. I live under my rock, keeping myself alone at home, participating in no LGBTQI community of any kind, not being activist in any way, just trying to be motivated enough to bother getting outta bed each morning. I wonder if more trans peeps are public & active, or solitary & inactive like me. I admire those with the courage, determination, fortitude, & self-confidence. I know how to spell those words, but that's all. Onya, fellow trans peeps.

ABC 7pm News did another inevitable #USPol #election report. Referred to "Trump's hyper-masculine campaign / appeal" [also fscken said Gen Zee, ffs]. Wtf? How is trump some avatar for masculinity? How in any way is he some inspiration for young males?

He's bombastic, bonkers, deceitful, dishonest, incompetent, a poor businesspeep, fat as fuck, pathetic with makeup, & a rapist. OK, Merkan men, pls tell me which of those attributes are attractive to you.

Annika Wells lying about housing policy to kick Greens.

I hoped you were better than that AW
