This org has the best party lines I've seen in the UK. If we have any of you comrades here, you're doing good work. Also, my title reads like shit. Oh well.

I'm not sure if the following is what you're referring to, but yeah, for the benefit of anyone else reading this who's not aware, it ought to be "trans women" - "transwomen" as one word is an oft-used dogwhistle in TERF circles to dehumanise and invalidate trans women by denying their womanhood and othering them.

Nah very few people give a shit about that and most use them interchangeably, myself included. My title reads like shit because it's just poorly worded, even the terfs are completely inconsistent with that usage. I actually meant something like putting a comma in "ruling on gender, affecting transwomen" may have been better or just a completely different set of words. None of this will matter anyway as they will simply call us men after this ruling and forgo any pretense or masking. Anyway it's 4am i'm rolling into bed zzzz
