I want you to scream TERF at the top of your voice. I want you to inflect it with all the anger and vitriol you have imbued it with and spit it out, loud. I want you to be clear you have christened every single stakeholders in a debate about equality framewors and safeguarding, people classified by law as vulnerable, as your oppressors. I want you to be clear that you have demanded a conversation about where gender recognition sits in a wider safeguarding and equality framework, and now you want all the vulnerable stakeholders having the conversation you demanded threatened, abused, coerced, doxxed. I want you to report their tweets and tell everyone you did it because they were a terf and they were discussing the wider context of safeguarding and equality frameworks and you decided everyone in those frameworks needed to be intimidated. Report tweets, tell everyone how fragile those people make you by existing and you only feel safe if you can pretend they don’t.

I want you to tell everyone that a lesbian should be abused as a terf for not doing dick, that you identifying as a woman means that lesbians are now your permanent target until they recant their sexuality and accept your identity means women no longer have sexual boundaries. I want you to shout this loud.

Here is what happened with the word TERF, you were encouraged by activists and academics to construct an object onto which you projected all the things you didnt like about yourself, your antipathy to women and more importantly you were encouraged to scream the word terf to tell us which institutions did not know about the baseline rule of law, power dynamics, safeguarding responsibilities so that we would know you, and the institution you represent was not aware of these duties.

TERF means ‘woman covered by equality or safeguarding legislation who won’t prioritise me’. I want you to continue to tell everyone this is your response to trans rihts being awarded and this is your contribution to the process of those gender recognition frameworks being embedded further into law. I want you to explain that you felt the word terf mean that one group were given dominion over all other groups and had the right to start abusing, threatenening, demonstrating male pattern abusive behaviour. I want you to explain that trans identities can only feel valid if entire safeguarding structures and women’s rights gained over a century were liquidated. Explain that mothers existing makes you feel invalid and they must not be allowed to speak without your supervision and the systems and laws which underpin their obligation to identify male pattern abusive behaviour are a threat to you just by existing. I want you to explain after eight years of austerity systems targeted that dealt with child abuse, male violence and female inequality are a threat to you by existing because you are a woman now. I want you to explain why you being a woman means disorder and male pattern abuse and the riht to harm women and kids must be yours…cos that’s how this works right?

I want you to explain how trans identity meant that women were no longer allowed boundaries, sexual boundaries, and systems protecting kids from predatory and abusive behaviour are a threat to your identity. I want you to tell people that sex offenders are women if they say they are and you will punch any woman for suggesting this isnt the case.

I want you to explain that this is what TERF means and you and everyone else shouting it are just giving us a clear picture of who needed to be made aware of these systems, and I want you to screech it as confidently as you have. Report tweets of women reminding you your reality is false, demonstrate in a chatroom what you would do to women given real power, and I just need you to keep going just a bit longer.

TERF. We are the context you can’t see or imagine, and you telling people how much you hate us, and how you feel about these systems is the best thing you could do for us at this point in time. Screech Terf as you tell people the things you hate about yourself and we will let your demonstration do the work for us. I want you to highlight every institution which did not know about this baseline in the rule of law and I want you to scream TERF to let us know. While you wonder why we are winning.

I want you to use the mirror you have created to serve all women and demonstrate precisely why the penis doesn’t intersect with feminism and what those systems dealing with male pattern abuse actually deal with.

Demonstrate what Crenshaw said about the erasure of female experience, and distilliation of it to atomised identity facets reproduces gendered power relations and tat this is the framework which shaped all the systems you are pushing yourself against and I want you to scream terf at the voice although it may make you feel stupid very soon when you realise you are demanding this and don’t care who hears you…

Here’s hoping you havent’ sacrificed trans rights for good but I think that ship may have sailed because of you…
