Everyone who disagrees with you isn't a misogynist.

No.Another misogynist heard from?
Hey I am pretty conservative AND a Roman Catholic, two strikes against me! But I do not think I am a misogynist.No.
Everyone who disagrees with you isn't a misogynist.
I believe that both sources provided in this thread use the phrase "constructive dismissal".
And the workmen (who all look like men) are tearing up my house so I just sort of have to sit here and watch them re-assemble it. I'm not going to ask to look at their genitals, by the way.
I totally agree.No.

I don't know much of anything about this whole situation, but after taking 2 seconds to look up Mridul Wadhwa, I found out she's a woman. So, calling her a man is indeed transphobic.It's gobsmacking to me that Edinburgh's Rape Crisis Centre's CEO is a man.
It's gobsmacking to me that I even have to explain why this is a huge problem.
Go ahead, call me "trans-phobic", but if a girl or woman I loved (or any female for that matter), was raped by a man, and went to a rape crisis center for support, I would demand that the victim not be "counseled" by a man.
But it appears that Mridul Wadhwa, the CEO man in question, prioritizes his gender ideology over the care of the females in his center:
The “heresy hunt” at the Edinburgh Rape Crisis Centre
Despite all that, I've not seen you say anything misogynistic.Hey I am pretty conservative AND a Roman Catholic, two strikes against me! But I do not think I am a misogynist.
It's sort of amazing, isn't it? I also really hate Trump but that's a topic for another thread.Despite all that, I've not seen you say anything misogynistic.
Cool.I totally agree.
Disagree. You've not shown this to be true.But I think everyone who is in lockstep with gender ideology is - even if unwittingly - is supporting homophobia and misogyny.
I don't see any reason to believe that, other than you just branding everyone that you think follows "gender ideology" as those things without demonstration of such.Bottom line, gender ideology has aspects that are homophobic and misogynistic. Your ignorance of that doesn't make it magically go away.
It certainly is and I do too.It's sort of amazing, isn't it? I also really hate Trump but that's a topic for another thread.
Mridul is a trans woman, a biological male.I don't know much of anything about this whole situation, but after taking 2 seconds to look up Mridul Wadhwa, I found out she's a woman. So, calling her a man is indeed transphobic.
I've repeatedly shown you evidence. Everyone reading this thread can see that. And they can see that you've refused to look at it.Cool.
Disagree. You've not shown this to be true.
In fact, I think you've revealed much more about yourself than you have others, on these particular threads.
I don't see any reason to believe that, other than you just branding everyone that you think follows "gender ideology" as those things without demonstration of such.
So, she is a woman, not a man. Referring to her as a man or with male pronouns is wrong. Saying she is a biological male might or might not be correct, but it's still a transphobic thing to say, unless in a very specific context.Mridul is a trans woman, a biological male.
What I can see is that you've bought into the TERF narrative. Just the term "gender ideology" itself is a red flag, as it's one used only by transphobic activists.I've repeatedly shown you evidence. Everyone reading this thread can see that. And they can see that you've refused to look at it.
Everybody in this thread and your other threads can certainly see for themselves.I've repeatedly shown you evidence. Everyone reading this thread can see that. And they can see that you've refused to look at it.
Too bad you didn't start a thread or poll asking females 'if you were raped by a man, would you want a female or male therapist/counsler afterwords"I've repeatedly shown you evidence. Everyone reading this thread can see that. And they can see that you've refused to look at it.
You seem to be saying that trans people are unlikely to be able to do the job because this particular trans person is CEO. She might be terrible at the job (or great at it) but this doesn't say anything about the suitability of a trans person in general.The CEO in question is putting gender ideology before patient care. The fact that they are trans doesn't necessary link the two, but it's more than plausible.
You called her a man. Not a trans woman.I hear this a lot, and I ask the same question:
How does calling a trans woman a trans woman deny their existence?
We don't have a a legal definition of well-being but it doesn't hurt anyone to use the term or more importantly, to look after their well-being. I think that you're clutching at straws given that girls and women are generally fine with people having gender identities.Second, a parallel thread has been active discussing the phrase "gender identity". So far, no good definition of "gender identity" has been agreed to, and what's been shown is that this poorly defined phrase is actually hurting girls and women. I think that to deny this is the real cruelty.
I'm surprised that you can't see the issues here. Firstly, trans men get raped too.I'm not erasing trans men, but this case was about the care of women patients.
Mridul is a trans woman, a biological male.So, she is a woman, not a man. Referring to her as a man or with male pronouns is wrong. Saying she is a biological male might or might not be correct, but it's still a transphobic thing to say, unless in a very specific context.

She is a woman, a trans woman if you must specify. Whether she is a biological male is not a matter that needs to be brought up here, and so it's bad form.Mridul is a trans woman, a biological male.
It's clear we disagree on the correct words here.
1) No one said calling her a trans woman was transphobic.Now please demonstrate how saying he's a trans woman is transphobic? Oh sure we hear this accusation all the time, but explain it to me if you can?
No, it's a vague term used by transphobic people. It's an indication that you're following transphobic people's views on the subject. Kind of like when someone talks about "wokeness".Not true. It's called "gender ideology" because it is one. You don't need any sort of affiliation to agree with that.
The people who use "gender ideology"? Yes, I know. That's why I'm saying it's a red flag when you use the term.For one, it's loaded with unfalsifiable, shall we say "faith" claims, just like religious ideologies.
