Māori Woman Facing Jail Time After Being Reported To Police By Trans Activist For ‘Offensive’ Social Media Posts – Reduxx

Rex Landy, a member of Mana Wāhine Kōrero, was arrested in December of 2024 after being targeted by a trans activist who took issue with her online commentary.

The source of the complaints against Landy is a fantasy author named Daniel Johnston, a man who identifies as “female” and refers to himself by the name “Caitlin Spice.”

Landy says that Johnston’s rhetoric, specifically that about using women’s intimate spaces, was triggering for her as a survivor of sexual abuse.

“I’ve never once spoken to him, e-mailed him, interacted with any of his accounts online, or wished him harm. Never,” Landy clarifies, acknowledging she often uses “offensive” language to get her point across. “I do not use the language they want me to use. I just laugh at these men. I tell other people to laugh at them. We need to laugh at these people – the naked emperor and his swinging balls.”

In September of 2024, Landy received a court order instructing her to remove all posts she had made directly or indirectly referencing Johnston. At the time, Landy was in the midst of a family tragedy and felt unable to put up a fight against the order.

“I went and I removed them all, or so I thought. I deleted my entire Gettr profile, and I searched my other accounts for wherever I had mentioned his name and deleted them. But I missed two by accident,” Landy says.

On December 18, 2024, police raided Landy’s home and arrested her.

“They said I had failed to comply with the order because I had missed those two posts. They took my laptops, cellphones, everything,” Landy recalls. She was taken to the station and formally charged with failing to obey a Harmful Digital Communications Act order.

On September 18, just one day before she was ordered to appear in court, Landy was hit with yet another count of failing to obey a Harmful Digital Communications Act order after Johnston told police that she had subtly referenced him during a past Facebook livestream – something she says is untrue.

While in court last week, Landy was told the prosecution was not willing to entertain diversion or discharge without conviction because of her beliefs.

She is next expected to appear in court on December 16, and faces three months in jail or a $50,000 fine. Her current bail conditions include a ban on directly or indirectly contacting Johnston.

“In our culture, women are te whare tangata, which means the house of the ancestors. Only women give birth. Only women can do the karanga, only women can call out to the spirits. Māori know what a woman is.”

On the outcome of the case, Landy makes no predictions but expresses optimism.

“Win, lose, or draw – he’ll never be a woman,” Landy says with a laugh. “I’ve already won. I’m a woman, he isn’t.”

If Harriet Harman strips me of my free speech, I’ll give up my job as a barrister | The Telegraph | UK

Baroness Harman’s independent review of bullying, harassment and sexual harassment at the Bar, published earlier this month, sent ripples across the barrister community for its potential to lead to censorship and the repression of free speech.

Speech should only be a criminal or regulatory matter if a very high bar of offence is crossed. Certainly I don’t think I’ve ever crossed it. Yet, in our culture now, mere disagreement is seen as violence, and not having a prevailing view about issues such as sexuality or transgenderism is seen inherently to be bigoted.

The thing that really worries me from Lady Harman’s new report is recommendation number 24, which reads: “Regulatory enforcement action must be taken against online bullying and harassment,” particularly if it’s motivated by misogyny or racism.

But who is deciding an unknown individual’s motivations for a tweet? Somebody who is upset enough to get the whole apparatus of either the criminal law or a regulatory offence moving? It’s very dangerous.

Of course, there should be fetters on my speech. I’m a member of a regulated profession. That carries with it privilege, and I respect that. However, having a view about Brokeback Mountain does not bring my profession into disrepute. Neither does upsetting people through the lawful exercise of my Article 10 rights [to freedom of expression, according to the European Convention on Human Rights].

I think we all agree the line needs to be drawn somewhere. It’s about where we draw it.

Another facet of the report also caused me deep concern: “Micro aggressions such as… sarcastic remarks… may also meet the threshold of bullying, harassment or sexual harassment” it says.

Barristers are aggressive by nature because we have to be. We’re in an adversarial profession. The problem is when it tips over into unacceptable bullying and harassment, which does happen. I was a victim of it, and my profession did nothing to help me or to stop it. If the Harman report is designed to end that sort of behaviour, then it gets my vote, but I’m worried it’s going to sweep up a lot of casualties in its wake, and one will be Article 10.

For example, you’re not allowed to discuss immigration because then you’re a racist, and you’re not allowed to discuss gender identity because then you’re a transphobe.

In my daily life, I work in public law care proceedings, in cases where local authorities are looking to take children into adoption. It’s getting less rewarding, because resources are being cut and there is less help available for parents and children.

This is why reports and recommendations like Lady Harman’s make me so angry: they risk being performative and a distraction from the bigger, more significant problems in society.

Statistics Show That HALF of Trans-Identified Men in Prison Are Sex Offenders | Eva’s Newsletter (from Sept 2024)

Many Western countries are transferring men into women’s prisons and calling this violation of women’s human rights “progress.” Yes, this is really happening, and it’s been happening for a while. Actually, in some places, it’s been happening for decades. There did used to be some semblance of safeguards in place, mainly that the man in question was required to get “bottom surgery” before such a transfer could take place. While a castrated man is not a woman and has no more claim to womanhood than an uncastrated one, this at least created a barrier to entry and kept the transfers few and far between. With the introduction of sex self-identification, this is no longer the case.

How long before UK Jobcentres move from encouraging unemployed women into OnlyFans to mandating it? | Nordic Model Now!

UK job centres are encouraging OnlyFans as self-employment for unemployed women, while stories emerge of male job coaches seeking free access to their ‘content’.

OnlyFans is seen as a bit of a joke and no big deal, partly because, unlike Pornhub, the name allows us to gloss over the true nature of the site’s content. In the Jobcentre, as in life, there is profound lack of understanding of what these sites truly entail, the dynamics involved in making money from them, who drives the profits and who pays the price. For clarity, OnlyFans is a site of primarily pornographic content. Not exclusively but, as its doomed 2021 attempt to shut down sexualised content demonstrated, it is young naked female bodies that keep the site profitable.

[N]ot only does an OnlyFans creator have to pay subscriptions for her own potential exploitation, and possibly fees to a third party acting as a pimp or procurer, she is then required to pay tax on her income for no discernible benefits. That’s a lot of people making money from a so-called employment situation that can’t and won’t protect creators from exploitation that occurs within it.

What is most outrageous is the fact that the DWP regards prostitution as a legitimate career path. In society, the narrative being pushed is that OnlyFans is sexy, fun and empowering. In the DWP, the narrative is that it’s authentic self-employment.

If a Work Coach mandates a claimant to apply for a job and the claimant fails to do so, it is very much within the Work Coach’s purview to nominate that claimant for a sanction on their monthly benefit payment. This sanction is very often a reduction to zero, meaning that the claimant is left with no money to cover essential expenses for the month. So, what becomes of the woman who struggles to find a job but won’t accept sexual exploitation as an alternative? Her benefit will be reduced and she’ll be edged further into poverty. What if she encounters a vindictive Work Coach who seeks to make an example of her for not providing him with ongoing free content? Likely the same.

Right now, in the DWP, sexual exploitation is being reframed as an employment issue. People should know about this and we should fight against it.

‘Girls need to carry things too!’: How women’s pockets became so controversial | BBC

Why do men’s clothes have so many pockets, and women’s so few? For centuries, the humble pocket has been a flashpoint in the gender divide of fashion. Now, with a #WeWantPockets hashtag gaining momentum on social media, is that finally set to change?

When pockets do exist, they’re usually shorter and narrower than those on men’s clothes. Or, at their most maddening, nothing more than sheer illusion. Earlier this year an eight-year-old schoolgirl wrote to UK supermarket Sainsbury’s asking why their girls’ school trousers had fake pockets and the boys had real ones. “Girls need to carry things too!” she said. A representative from the retailer promised to look into the issue.

At the autumn/winter 2025-26 fashion shows earlier this year, which set the trends for what we’ll be wearing in the coming months, there were signs that the industry is taking note. Many models swaggered down the catwalks with their hands pushed firmly into deep pockets – carrying an extra dose of confidence compared to those with their arms flailing freely.

All the things that might go in pockets – money, keys, notes – symbolised things that weren’t meant to concern women, like property, power and privacy. Some women started carrying small bags instead. “That was another thing that made you more vulnerable because it meant you couldn’t really use your hands,” says Stevenson.

While a lack of pockets was no doubt as frustrating to women then as it is now, it didn’t really emerge as a political issue until the early 20th Century. “The suffragettes demanded votes for women, but also pockets,” says Stevenson.

This is still a factor today. “The fashion industry is invested in women having handbags, so it makes sense for them to push this idea that women should be carrying their belongings in something that’s very separate from their garments,” says Stevenson.

“Protect the Dolls”: The Porn to Trans Pipeline – Fairer Disputations | Jo Bartosch

Pornography is not only, as Andrea Dworkin observed, where the Left went to die. It’s also where the trans-identified generation was born—and where their ghoulish cheerleaders reside. From girls binding and cutting their way out of womanhood to boys who find arousal and solace in cross-dressing, the architects of pornography’s mega-platforms program both its viewers’ desires and their very identities.

The idea that pornography is a tool to help people uncover their true sexuality is an inversion. Armies of developers like Rice are paid to sustain users’ attention, to keep them online, and thus to pull them away from who they are, locking them into niche fetishes that can never be realized with a real person.

Our society has utterly failed to protect the first generation to have come of age under the pornocracy. Though it may be uncomfortable, we must listen to their stories—and then take steps to make sure today’s children and adolescents aren’t lured down the same path.

Efforts to engineer tastes have been phenomenally successful; the market for trans porn is booming. Pornhub’s 2024 Year in Review reports that interest in the “Transgender” category is rising worldwide: “Trans” was the sixth most-searched category among men and the ninth among women. Many users of this content are now attesting that it changed them—and not for the better.

Ascribing trans identities to children is in itself a sexual fetish. So-called “egg chasers,” often older, predatory men, give advice to “crack the shells” of youngsters they consider latently trans, encouraging them to come out as the opposite sex. Details from the trial of queer activist Stephen Ireland revealed that the convicted child rapist—sentenced to thirty years—shared grotesque fantasies with his boyfriend about dosing boys with estrogen and using suction cups on their chests to mimic breast growth.

Investigative journalist Genevieve Gluck, co-founder of Reduxx, has documented pornographic subcultures in which men share these dark desires. She has uncovered forums devoted to the castration of children—some advocating chemical means, others orchidectomy—and traced links between figures in these circles and policy-work that has influenced global clinical guidelines for trans-identifying patients. In Gluck’s view, transgenderism and pornography are aspects of the sex industry—the former sells sex as an act; the latter sells sex as a product.

Today’s newest “dolls” have been failed by older generations too timid to take a moral stance on pornography. They have been preyed on by pornographers and exploited by a minority of men pursuing their twisted fantasies about “trans” children. If there is a duty of care, it is first to the children being targeted and then—reluctantly—to the men already captured by this machinery, to stop them doing further harm to themselves and others. That means saying no to policies that turn womanhood into a fetish and rejecting the idea that men who perform fragility are in any way vulnerable.

Protect the dolls, yes—but from themselves. And protect our kids, full stop.

Guidance Document The Concept of consent in relation to violence against women and girls | The Special Rapporteur on violence against women and girls, its causes and consequences* Reem Alsalem

Conclusions and recommendations

77. Disregarding the critical role of circumstances surrounding women’s and girls’ consent can result in justifying various and continued forms of violence against them. When consent is decontextualized and treated merely as a formalistic “yes/no” checkbox, particularly in exploitative contexts such as pornography, prostitution, and surrogacy, it obscures the realities of power imbalances, psychological and economic pressures, and exploitation, contributing to the objectification of women and girls. It also creates false justification for state inaction and results in impunity, which encourages further violations. As the situations and practices described in this report relate to the most fundamental and intimate aspects of one’s life, the suffering and harm experienced will be life-changing and often irreversible.

78. There is evidence that the incorporation of an affirmative consent-based definition has, to some extent, enhanced the criminal justice response to some forms of violence against women and girls, particularly sexual violence. However, it failed to fully reach its goal. Consent, as currently framed, is an inadequate tool because it fails to account for how gendered power structures shape women’s subordination to men and places an undue burden on victims to prove violence.

79. In view of the above, the Special Rapporteur recommends the adoption and implementation of the “contextualized consent” model, which offers the most comprehensive framework for assessing all relevant circumstances and factors that must inform the interpretation of consent under international human rights law. This model is aimed at providing clear standards for establishing consent and investigating coercive circumstances, thereby promoting both fair trials for the accused and improved access to justice for victims, including through shifting the focus to the perpetrator’s actions rather than the victim’s behavior.

LGB International splits from ‘legacy gay organisations’ over gender politics | The Australian

A prominent gay and lesbian group has announced it is divorcing itself from legacy LGBTQ+ organisations, claiming the institutions have sidelined those they were established to protect by focusing on trans activism.

A bias towards gender ideology has distracted from the fight for rights afforded to same-sex attracted communities, LGB International said.

The movement is driven largely by a belief that those who are attracted to the same sex are being “coerced” into being attracted to those of a sex biologically opposite, namely transgender men and women, LGB Alliance Australia spokesman Michael David said.

Last year, Australia’s Federal Court heard a discrimination dispute between transgender woman Roxanne Tickle and social media platform Giggle for Girls, the latter described as a “women-only safe space”.

Giggle app founder Sally Grover had argued Ms Tickle was an adult male and chose to describe her according to her sex at birth, as grounds for removal from the platform.

The Lesbian Action Group was granted intervener status in the case, arguing that biological women should have the right to their own spaces and that because of its special interest in creating female-only spaces and that parliament could not have intended that men would attend lesbian parties when it introduced changes to the Sex Discrimination Act.

Ms Grover ultimately lost the case, with the court determining Ms Tickle had been “indirectly discriminated” against under the Sex Discrimination Act. An appeal has been heard, but no decision has yet been announced.

Decisions such as these undermined the rights of same-sex attracted communities, whose “rights are predicated in sex”, Mr David said.

“For too long, lesbian, gay and bisexual people have been sidelined by legacy organisations who no longer represent us,” Mr David said.

Demand Removal of Rapist Sent to Women’s Prison in Victoria | Campaign Club

96% of pedophiles are men. Therefore, his crime is exactly something a man would do.

Judge Nola Karapanagiotidis similarly highlighted Harper’s “gender dysphoria” and experiences with “transphobia” as mitigating factors, and appeared to accept the defense’s argument that he only committed the abuse to be “validated … as a woman and a sexual person.”

THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE.

Sall Grover has paved the way for us to do something to uphold justice and protect women. Link here.
