Stephen Fry has spent years snuggling up to trans ideology while sneering at the women who refuse to play along. He recently decided JK Rowling, a woman who has done nothing more than stand up for women's rights and single sex spaces, is a "lost cause" who got "radicalised by TERFs." The contempt is thick, isn't it? A self appointed intellectual looking down his nose at a woman for saying biological sex is real and that girls deserve boundaries. There are so, so many of these smug old men it's ridiculous. This is the same man who, back in 2013 on QI, thought it was funny to recite a limerick about a chaplain whose "real desire was a boy in the choir with a bottom like jelly on springs", which was broadcast minutes before Newsnight ran a report on Jimmy Savile!! How many red flags are needed, exactly? The BBC Trust later called the timing "unfortunate." Unfortunate. 🙄 Then, in 2016 he sat there and told sexual abuse survivors that their self pity got none of his sympathy and that they should "just grow up," casually throwing in the example of an uncle who "touched you in that nasty place." He apologised later, of course. They always do once the outrage arrives. This is the same old pattern. The same voices who minimise, joke about, or laugh away the reality of abuse against children are the ones who treat safeguarding and the age of consent as old fashioned inconveniences that can be rewritten when it suits them. Many of us have been saying for years that this erosion was coming. Trans ideology didn't invent it, but it's opened the door wide and given cover to people who want to blur the lines around children, consent and boundaries. And the loudest advocates are often the same ones busy belittling women, dismissing our concerns and tearing down the sex based protections the suffragettes fought for in the first place. It's not complicated. If you're happy to mock or minimise what happened to children and you're also pushing an ideology that treats sex as optional and safeguarding as bigotry, you don't get to pretend you're on the side of the vulnerable. 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩
