Australian-born academic and writer Germaine Greer has said that in her opinion, transgender women are "not women".

She also claims that "a great many women" who are not transgender think transgender women - who she refers to as "male to female transgender people" - do not "look like, sound like or behave like women".

Feminist Greer has spoken the truth on this matter, and Western media is having a heart attack right now over it.

HERESY!!

Chromosomes never lie!

Trans gender= a lib word for mentally ill

Still, she will be shouted down.

[livius]

Gads, this is the first time I’ve ever agreed with Germaine Greer.

[rovenstinez]

Oh my GOODNESS, she broke the rules. We are going to make her BAKE THE CAKE, and walk the line.

[Dr. Sivana]

Sorry Germaine Honey,

The Revolution has passed you by. Gender constructs of any kind are so 20th Century.

[dp0622]

it’s too silly to discuss. that’s why we are probably done as a nation if the nonsense doesn’t change in 2017.

men using women’s bathrooms. removing privates for prisoners or anybody when the same disease is not treated for people who think their arms and legs dont belong to them it’s called body dysmorphic disorder, i believe.

and a judge ruled that a prisoner had it and the only fix was to remove his privates

if that’s the only fix then remove the arms and legs too

[E. Pluribus Unum]

In a time of universal deceit...

[Leaning Right]

I wonder how many hours it will be before Greer “clarifies” (walks back) her statement.

Germaine Greer Anyone with half a brain: Transgender women are 'not women'

[DaxtonBrown]

“male to female transgender people” - do not “look like, sound like or behave like women”.

Gee, what was her first clue? They are abnormal mentally messed up freaks.

[Mrs. Don-o]

Way, way, WAY back in about 1970, in her "Female Eunuch," Greer said the offensive thing is not that faggots are expected to talk, dress, act, etc. like women, it's that women are expected to talk, dress, act, etc. like faggots.

Those are, approximately, the words she used.

And I have always thought that cross-dressers, transvestites, trannies, whatever, don't look like "women," they look like parodies of women, i.e. drag queens.

The more things change....

Oh, and BTW: why isn't the male parody of femininity castigated by the PC crowd for being "cultural appropriation"?

[setha]

If one were to be strict about it, it’s both heresy and obstinacy for the left. To them, it’s heresy to speak the truth, obstinacy for said truth to remain unsilenced.

It is so evil that this mental illness is being enabled and encouraged.

[Dr. Sivana]

I wonder how many hours it will be before Greer “clarifies” (walks back) her statement.

She's an academic. She doesn't have to walk stuff back any more than Camille Paglia does. She will sit in the cheap seats obn the bus, but is still a revolutionary comrade-in-arms of from old school feminism days. In her circles, this argument has been going on for thirty years, and her side has lost big time.

I met a new hire at my place of employment. The cute (though overweight) young obviously-a-woman told me she was a transgender male. She wore a sign indicating she preferred to be addressed in male pronouns. She said she wore the sign because she appears female.

Pure mental illness.

Male cross-dressing, homosexuals that mutilate their genitals are not women.
