"Stay away from Ireland," British anti-trans feminists told
Irish Central ^ | January 23, 2018 02:02 PM | James Wilson

Irish feminists have hit out at a group of British trans-exclusionary radical feminists (TERFs) who have organized a meeting in Ireland as part of their campaign to oppose Britain’s proposed Gender Recognition Act (GRA).

The proposed GRA would end the requirement that trans people obtain a doctor’s diagnosis before they can officially change their gender. In 2015, Ireland passed a similar act that allows self-identification — namely, gives an individual the right to change their gender and apply for a new birth certificate without medical treatment.

At the time, Ireland was hailed by Human Rights Watch as a “global transgender leader”, but as the British Government considers whether to pass similar legislation, TERFs have decried what they view as the abolition of gender.

The We Need To Talk tour has organized meetings opposing the GRA in four British cities, and a further event next month in Dublin is being publicized where “guest speakers will discuss abortion, gender and other feminist issues.”

A number of Irish feminists have penned an open letter to the group which touches on trans rights and Ireland’s experience of colonialism. …

Ireland and England disputes used to be about Catholic and Protestant differences

Now they argue over their new religion, post-modernism.

How did Ireland go from one of the most conservative catholic country to a cesspool in such a short time?

I've always said there is a heirarchy of victims in the left with Muslims at the very top as the super numero uno victim group and way down at the bottom, the very very bottom under illegals and gays and blacks and american indians and narcoleptics is where you'll find women. Any of the higher groups can crap on women and it's okay because they're on the bottom, just there to pay some lip service too and scare into voting for the left but not someone they actually care about.

Now we have proof that fake women > real women in their pyramid of victims.

The Catholic didn’t do itself any favours covering up all that child abuse that their priests and nuns are now known to have perpetrated. Its cost them a lot of respect that people used to hold for it.
