I would argue that she does not need to be so cautious. This kind of threat is no doubt frightening to an artist, but Macy Gray has a net worth of approximately $12 million. Macy is done in the real world - and will absolutely be getting booed and shunned at whatever gigs she has left. We know she is not wrong, and hopefully our voices have reached her ears as loudly as the voices of aggressive trans-identified men like India Willoughby who tweeted: Perhaps she has sensed that women are hugely appreciative of her courageous stance. She had also come under tremendous pressure from trans activists calling her “Terf” and “bigot”. She tweeted that her comments had been “grossly misunderstood”. If Macy Gray needed anyone behind her to encourage her bravery, she could not ask for more than the support of Jo Rowling.īut within 24 hours Macy Gray appeared to be backtracking.
#We hold the line how to#
If anyone knows how to hold the line it is Rowling, who is now in her third year of speaking out about the threat to women’s rights from transgender ideologues. Today feels like a good day to ensure I’ve bought entire back catalogue. Contrary to her worry that everyone would hate her, she was immersed in the gratitude and support of gender critical women not least the author J.K. She was in no doubt about her belief in the immutability of biological sex. Piers Morgan pressed her to clarify and she did. With utter confidence, and attitude to spare, Gray answered:Īs with Bette Midler there was no ambiguity to her statements. I’m gonna say this and everybody’s gonna hate me, but as a woman, just because you go change your parts doesn’t make you a woman. She appeared on Piers Morgan Uncensored to discuss her work and when engaged on the issue of transgender ideology, she said: The singer Macy Gray also became a short-lived heroine for gender critical women this week. There was no intention of anything exclusionary or transphobic in what I said it wasn’t about that.īut it most definitely was about “that”. PEOPLE OF THE WORLD! My tweet about women was a response to this fascinating and well written piece in the NYT on July 3rd. Her embarrassing “ apology ” took roughly 40 hours to elicit. Predictably enough the trans activist bullies piled on the pressure, emotionally manipulating her to “be kind”. She could have stuck by what she said with little penalty, other than people on social media and in sensationalist media headlines calling her a “bigot” or a “terf”. She is universally adored and, more importantly, financially cushioned, as few other women in the world are. There is little in the world that she could say that would see her reduced to poverty. It is a shock to these women that the vitriolic backlash against the truth is so nasty, brutish … and lengthy.īette Midler has an estimated worth of $250 million. When she first utters these words, she assumes that what she says is uncontroversial because it is true.
The famous woman says with confidence what she knows to be true: that men cannot become women and it is unfair to women to say that they can. This has become the way with any woman in the public eye who steps forward on the “woman question”. Great stuff but also looking forward to the inevitable apology in half an hour’s time The user replied to her with sad resignation: When she talks about “owing” she means that every human is born from a woman that women are therefore “owed” respect. Bette Midler was, without any doubt, objecting to the removal of language for biological women. If you look at any of the key arguments of feminists who oppose gender ideology then these words are identical. WOMEN OF THE WORLD! We are being stripped of our rights over our bodies, our lives and even of our name! They don’t call us “women” anymore they call us “birthing people” or “menstruators”, and even “people with vaginas”! Don’t let them erase you! Every human on earth owes you! These women, Bette Midler and Macy Gray, did not hold the line after stating their view that sex is real, and very quickly found themselves on their knees before trans activist bullies.īette Midler, arguably one of the most famous singers and actors in the world, tweeted : This week, two more famous women stepped forward with very similar views and the reaction was extraordinary.
It takes courage and steadfastness to discuss the meaning of the word “woman” in a time of deep woman-hating. She said what she believed to be true and then she held the line. It is a shock that backlash against the truth is so brutishįorstater had refused to back down to critics with opposing views on gender identity. It had already been established that her views were “worthy of respect in a democratic society”. It found that Maya Forstater had been unfairly discriminated against because of her belief that “it is impossible for a male to become female”.
On Wednesday morning judgement was handed down in Forstater v CGD Europe.
