Did any UK radfems catch "Gender Wars" on Channel 4?
Non-UK link here (I just found the link on twitter, no idea who this person is or what their politics are)
It was a pretty surface level look at the gender ideology debate, primarily focusing on Dr. Kathleen Stock's experience within the academic world, and on those who have disagreed with or protested against her. There was talk of male violence, "trans women are women", single-sex spaces (limited mostly to bathroom chat and a brief mention of rape/domestic violence shelters, which was frustrating) and freedom of speech, but no mention of statistics, women's sports, Mermaids/Tavistock/ROGD, the "cotton ceiling", same sex healthcare provision, and a whole other host of things I'm forgetting. I understand that the documentary had to limit the issues discussed, but I think they overlooked some of the higher priority conflicting needs/interests in favour of the flashier or more digestible conversations.
I'm glad that Dr. Stock, Julie Bindel and Linda Bellos* were the high-profile "TERFs" featured in the documentary. It's nice seeing the focus taken away from demagogues like Kellie-Jay Keen (aka Posie Parker). Homophobia is at the heart of gender identity ideology, so it makes sense to centre parts of the gender critical discussion around the lesbian perspective.
Some of the trans participants (Dr. Finn Mackay and Stephen Whittle afaik) in the documentary have claimed to have been misled regarding the context of their interviews. The former tweeted about not being informed that the documentary would focus on Dr. Kathleen Stock, and said that had this been made clear, the invitation to appear would not have been accepted. I won't defend Channel 4 for using deceptive journalistic practices, but I was glad to hear their perspectives as two female trans people - the documentary was otherwise very male-centric on the trans side.
There was a very painful moment to watch in the documentary, as a debate about the right to cause offence, held at Cambridge Union, was used by one of the participants to make personal attacks on Dr. Stock's character. She was visibly affected by this, but made it clear that she would defend any opponent's right to argue against her. I think she came off very admirably here, showing herself to be consistent in her principles (belief in free speech) but also not hiding her emotional response to baseless insults.
A final noteworthy observation is that all of the trans interviewees made constant reference to the belief that Dr. Stock's views (or any gender critical views) are putting trans people's lives at risk. In their eyes, it's the inherent and apparently lethal danger that gender criticism poses, which justifies all manner of tactics used in the name of trans rights. This isn't new to me, or to radblr, but I think it will shock some of the offline crowd, considering Dr. Stock made multiple references to trans people absolutely needing ongoing legal protection.
Overall, I think Channel 4 have created a very balanced, very superficial introduction to gender identity ideology and its feminist critiques. Drawing a clear line in the sand between gender critical feminism and conservative transphobia will likely anger both conservatives themselves and those who conflate the two groups. But I found it really refreshing.
*Linda Bellos only featured very briefly at the end, and I absolutely wish we could've heard more from her.

Quid ergo dicemus, cum et silentii et orationis magna utilitas sit? *
- Sallust
What then should we say, considering that there is great utility in both silence and in speaking? *
Prof Kathleen Stock, a university professor of philosophy was hounded out of her post by trans activists for her gender critical views. In her work she tackled the relation between sex and gender identity, arguing among other things that: womanhood and manhood reflect biological sex, not gender or gender identity; the claim βtranswomen are womenβ is a fiction, not literally true; sexual orientation (being gay, being lesbian) is determined by same-sex attraction, not attraction to gender identity; spaces where women undress and sleep should remain genuinely single-sex, in order to protect them; and children with gender identity disorders should not be given puberty blockers as minors. For holding such views she was subject to torrential abuse and subsequently hounded out of her academic position by a vocal minority of student trans right activists for holding such βtransphobicβ views.
Stock was invited first by the Cambridge Union and later the Oxford Union to debate her views. At Oxford, trans activists tried to get her invitation rescinded on the basis that her views constituted βhate speechβ. The Oxford Union was threatened by the Student Union to deny her a platform. To their credit, the Oxford Union held fast to their free speech principles while a petition signed by many Oxford academics, including Richard Dawkins and Nigel Biggar, came out in support for Prof. Stock.
Trans activists did their best to disrupt the event outside with a march while also offering βsafe spacesβ for triggered Oxford students in a nearby college room complete with energy bars, ear plugs, and bottled water.
Inside the chamber, one activist, Riz Possnett, glued her hand to the chamber floor, in an attempt to disrupt Stockβs talk, until she was removed by police. The privately educated Possnett (Β£41,000 year private school in Hong Kong) reading PPE at Wadham College, Oxford, is no stranger to controversy asΒ βtheyβ was known to be an Extension Rebellion activist and Republican agitator, having previously broken into Windsor Castle to frolic on King Charlesβ bed with βtheirβ partner.
Prof Stock told the Union that some universities were βbecoming propaganda machines for a particular point of viewβ. She said she did not find it βtraumaticβ to have protesters outside the event and said that students in her generation staged similar protests. βGenerally what I find more worrying is when institutions listen to protesters and take that voice through into the institution and basically become propaganda machines for a particular point of view and then everyone else in that institution feels that they canβt say what they want to say,β she said. She said that had happened in some universities. She told the Union said it would βtake courageβ for people to realise that βthe world does not endβ when you have disagreements.

The most stupid thing that exists is the genderwar.
Men are not better than women.
Women are not better than men.
Every person is unique and shouldn't be rated because of their gender.

Why do i keep seeing ppl dissing gen z in the gen z tag :/ like ok. We get it. We're a bad generation and we're most likely to fail in life but can you not categorize us all to be like that? Also the generation wars are so fucking stupid, we all have bad qualities in each generation and we are all different people. Just because you met a bad person or a bad group who just so happens to be in the same generation as us doesn't mean that we're all the same? This also applies to those zodiac sign people. "oH nO iTs A sCorPiO, ThEy'Re ProBabLY a MeAn PerSon." bitch shut the fuck up, the only mean person here is you for assuming and judging a person based on the month they were born in. Do you know how immature that is? How fucking dumb you sound for having gender wars, generation wars, zodiac wars, etc etc? Damn, we know how frustrated you are but can you not bring other people into your problems just because some people are assholes (or annoying)? Even if it's jUst A jOKE, it's really not that funny. Go find another group to tell that joke to and maybe you guys can actually coexist with one another instead of going around telling people that this type of person or generation is better then the other. I'm probably gonna get attacked for this but hey, fuck it right? Ya'll did the same anyways.
Sincerely, a teenager <3

I think there's a sociological tendency that is underdiscussed because it makes people feel like only a gross person would point it out or talk about it cavalierly, and it touches on a lot of people's sour spots / its emotionally unpleasant to think about for everyone:
