Had it not been for the <strong>three burly security guards<\/strong> surrounding me, I would have been punched.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So here is this woman who has made a career declaring men obsolete and declaring women the equal of men in every way, hiding behind a phalanx of &#8220;burly&#8221; men to escape a beating by another denier of sexual reality.\u00a0 \u00a0It&#8217;s too rich.<\/p>\n<p>After reading her entire article I found it amazing that she somehow concludes that the bullying of radical feminists by trans-normalizers\u00a0 is the fault of the Patriarchy!\u00a0 So, apparently, Stanley Kowalski has put down his beer bottle and bowling ball and after belting Stella and Blanche around he puts on a little black dress and heels and goes after Ms. Bindel for heresy against the trannies.\u00a0 It&#8217;s so thick, you can cut it with a knife.<\/p>\n<p>Afterwards I looked at the comments section and you can only imagine.\u00a0 Guys from our side were there laughing their butts off.\u00a0 The lesbians and the trannies were there yelling at and past each other.\u00a0 It was a three ring circus.<\/p>\n<p>So what&#8217;s the moral of this story?\u00a0 Well I&#8217;ve always heard that when your enemy is digging himself into a hole you lend him a bigger shovel.\u00a0 My instinct says sell ammunition to both sides.\u00a0 Do everything possible to keep the pot boiling.\u00a0 There&#8217;s nothing like an Antifa sucker punch to begin a life long grudge against your ideological adversary.<\/p>\n<p>Lately the lesbians have been openly talking about bolting from the LGBTQ alphabet soup.\u00a0 \u00a0Then I guess we&#8217;d have to adapt to the GBTQ everywhere.\u00a0 I don&#8217;t know.\u00a0 It sounds like the call letters of some kind of public television channel.<\/p>\n<p>Well, anyway, if nothing else, the trannies rampaging through girls&#8217; and women&#8217;s sports is opening the eyes of mothers and daughters all over America and should produce a bumper crop of biological realists in the next few years.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>After you&#8217;ve read enough sexbot articles on Drudge maybe switch to something interesting<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.whatfinger.com\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.whatfinger.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/whatfingernewslogo.png\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is the latest in a string of posts I&#8217;ve seen where radical feminists decry the unfairness of trans-women and their allies calling them TERFs.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,245,237],"tags":[1932,1933,1934,1163,1931],"class_list":["post-7307","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-current-events","category-review-of-article","category-reviews","tag-punch-terfs","tag-radical-feminists","tag-radical-feminists-vs-trans-women","tag-schadenfreude","tag-terf"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.4 -
