Israel 7 October: Appeal for recognition as mass feminicide

The women victims of the Hamas attack were not killed like all other civilians: they were exposed naked, raped, brutalised, humiliated, decapitated, their bodies burnt and torn to pieces. "We wanted to dirty them," say the terrorists. The violence against these women meets the definition of mass feminicide: from France a petition to international NGOs

British academics against cancel culture

On 20 November, the London Universities Council for Academic Freedom will be unveiled, a body that brings together a hundred or so professors from the major British universities with the intention of fighting against the censorship and single-mindedness that in recent years have impeded academic debate and freedom, compromising the education of thousands of students. In the crosshairs especially Lgbtq+ realities such as Stonewall that have heavily influenced university and higher education. About time, and go on!

As reported by The Telegraph, more than a hundred academics from the UK's top universities have joined forces to tackle the growing threat of cancel culture through the creation of a new body dedicated to academic freedom. In a pioneering initiative, the scholars have formed the 'London Universities Council for Academic Freedom', involving all academic institutions in the capital including University College London (UCL), King's College London, [...]

13 November in The Hague against surrogacy

The Private International Law Conference is pushing for transnational recognition of gestation per se contracts with the intention of forcing national legislation to benefit biomarket profits. The Icams coalition against GPA organised a demonstration in defence of women's dignity and against the market in girls and children

The International Coalition to Abolish Surrogacy (ICASM) organised an international demonstration in front of the Hague Conference on Private International Law (HCCH) on 13 November to oppose the regulation of cross-border 'surrogacy'. Indeed, attempts are being made to impose international regulation of so-called 'surrogacy': as of 13 November, the HCCH will set up a working group with the task of drafting a convention to allow cross-border recognition of contracts. This is to meet the growing demand in the biomarket [...]

Canada: gender critical nurse risks her job

Amy Hamm works in a psychiatric ward and is under investigation for promoting women's rights based on sex and child protection online. The BCCNM, the body that regulates the nursing profession, intends to suspend her unless she participates in a re-education programme but Amy opposes this: the hearing is underway. US journalist Megyn Kelly interviewed her

Canadian nurse Amy Hamm - one of the founders of the non-profit coalition Canadian Women Sex Based Rights (caWsbar) - works in an acute psychiatric ward specialising in mental health and substance use. Amy risks losing her nursing licence and her job because she allegedly promoted women's sex-based rights and child protection online. In recent years, Amy has been the subject of an investigation by the British Columbia College of Nurses & Midwives [...]

No more drugs for children with gender dysphoria!

For many years a pioneer of puberty blocker and hormone-based treatments for 'gender non-conforming' minors, Finnish psychiatrist Riittakerttu Kaltiala now denounces these 'therapies' as dangerous, useless and lacking in scientific evidence. And she calls on doctors around the world to find the courage to break the silence imposed by activist censorship and the media's rubber wall

In Italy there persists an obstinate silence on pharmacological treatments for minors with gender dysphoria (puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, 'gender reassignment' surgery) according to the protocol of so-called gender affirmative therapy. It is not possible to know how many minors have been treated or are undergoing treatment, in how many and which centres they are treated and with what 'success' (or failure) rates. While throughout the Western world the debate has been open for some time and in some countries [...]

This History must end

War is not an invention of women. War reduces us to prey and makes us dumb things. Positioning ourselves -on this side or that side- does not give us peace. Peace is not the interval between one war and another. Peace is not helplessness but an active force that regulates relationships and settles conflicts. We demand that rebellious children recognise their mother's authority and shirk the obligation of acts of domination and overpowering

'War has always been the specific activity of the male and his model of virile behaviour'. Carla Lonzi, Manifesto of Women's Revolt, 1970 War is not our invention, nor is that desperate form of war that is terrorism. Positioning ourselves -on this side or that side- does not give us peace, it disorients and divides us, but we are not allowed any other movement than to seek refuge in an impossible extraneousness. We recognise ourselves with pain in the 'enemy'. [...]

AUDI TO BE OPENED TO MALES: EMILIA REGION GRANTS (!) AN EXTENSION

At the urgent request of PPOO Minister Eugenia Roccella, the deadline set for the UDI to adapt its statute to allow men to join as well slips by 180 days. In the meantime, the powerful Schlienian Igor Taruffi, transfeminist councillor for Welfare and head of organisation of the national PD, will have to explain which passage of the circular on the reform of the Third Sector justifies his attack on female separatism

At the insistent request of PPOO Minister Eugenia Roccella, the Emilia Romagna region has granted an extension of 180 days to the UDI associations of Modena, Ferrara and Ravenna to adapt their statutes to allow men to register (we have told you about this here), statutes that UDI Bologna has in fact already modified for some time (2020) The deadline for modifying its statutes, under penalty of being expelled from the register of Third Sector Associations (RUNTS), has therefore been extended from [...].

Only women? Can no longer be

In 10 days' time -on 21 October- the UDI Emilia Romagna could be deleted from the Third Sector register unless it agrees to register men as well. This is how the left attacks women's political spaces - starting with the historical association linked to the Resistance - in the name of the trans-feminist 'inclusiveness' promoted by the PD. A huge risk for all feminism. They cannot win

Women's spaces under attack. Not only the physical ones - changing rooms, sports, shelter homes, hospital wards, prisons - but also the symbolic and political ones. If you don't admit men, close down and disappear. Incredible and exemplary is what is happening to UDI, Unione Donne in Italia, an association that has been active for almost 80 years historically linked to the left. Many of the UDIs in Emilia-Romagna are at risk of imminent cancellation from RUNTS, the single national register of the Third Sector, simply for the fact [...]

Meeting ContraBorrado: LEY TRANS & DDL ZAN
ContraBorrado and RadFem Italia jointly analyse the similarities between the "Ley Trans" in Spain and the Zan bill in Italy.
Live with Ángeles Álvaréz, referent of ContraBorrado and one of the most important representatives of Spanish radical feminism. Together with Marina Terragni and Sara Punzo as interpreter from Spanish to Italian, we analyse the similarities between the so-called "ley trans" and the Zan bill. We explain how pro "gender identity" laws harm minors, statistics and women's rights and protection laws. We look with critical feminist perspective at the position of the Italian left and right political parties [...]

Turkey withdraws from the Istanbul Convention against male violence. For women, a huge blow
Turkey is abandoning the Council of Europe Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and domestic violence, known as the Istanbul Convention and first ratified (2011) in that country. This was a huge blow for Turkish citizens: almost every day in 2020 a woman died at the hands of a man, not counting the 170 suspicious deaths. The same pace in the first 65 days of 2021, around 70 feminicides. According to [...]

Spain: left-wing women rebel -finally- against the Podemos transcult and break with the party and Ley Trans
While the Italian left, women included, silently suffers Cirinnismo and Boldrinismo and its transcult (just in these days the news of an appeal by the International House of Women in Rome in support of Monica Cirinnà as mayor, see here), the militants of the Spanish left, Podemos and Izquierda Unida, are revolting en masse against the Ley Trans (see here) proposed by the Minister of Igualdad of their own party, Irene Montero, the local Cirinnà (Psoe has always opposed the law), denouncing the "imposition" of [...]

A word of advice - if you will - to our LGBT friends. About the lawsuit I suffered
I am only mentioning this now, after the judge has ordered the case to be filed. I was sued by Alexander Schuster, a well-known exponent of the Lenford Network - Advocacy for Gay and Lesbian Rights. The subject of the lawsuit was a Facebook post in which I merely quoted (in inverted commas) the statements of a member of Arcilesbica, Giovanna Camertoni, regarding a stormy evening on the uterus for rent organised in Trento by Arcigay and Famiglie Arcobaleno. Here is the post: TRENTO, UTERUS FOR RENT: GIOVANNA CAMERTONI OF ARCILESBICA CENSORSED BY ARCIGAY AND FAMILIES Arcobaleno [...]

Sign up now, in time for 8 March! From women around the world to the US Senate: Don't pass the Equality Act! Gender identity' erases us
A letter to be signed immediately! (In the United States, the Equality Act, which has already passed the House of Representatives, is about to be approved in the Senate. As Feminist Post has repeatedly reported, the Equality Act, strongly supported by the Biden administration, effectively replaces the concept of "sex" with that of "gender identity", erasing women, girls and children and making being a woman a "choice" available to men. Declaration on Women's Sex-Based Rights, which has a network of 15,000 adherents [...]

Changing gender in Malta: Mediterranean self-id against women
Few people will be aware of this, but since 2015 in Malta it is possible to change gender (from male to female or from female to male) with a simple self-declaration, i.e. without diagnosis, expertise, drug therapies or surgery. Among the countries where self-id is in force, Malta is the one geographically and culturally closest to Italy (assuming Spain does not soon approve the Ley Trans). Gender identity is the cornerstone of Zan's law on homobi-transphobia, already approved by the House: the [...]

Women against women: Spanish minister Irene Montero and her Ley Trans. Feminist protests ignored
For Irene Montero, Spanish Minister of Equal Opportunities (Podemos), the so-called Ley Trans, which allows the free and totally self-determined choice of one's own "gender identity" (self-id), is an absolute emergency and must be approved as soon as possible: the plan is to get it through within the first two weeks of February. Spanish feminism has been mobilising against the Trans Ley for months, but Montero does not consider women's objections even though she claims to want to find mediation. She says that the "gender identity [...]

Why Italian feminism does not support the Zan law against homotransfobia
We feminists note that we have succeeded in making it clear that the expression "gender identity" is not admissible, as is also shown by the request of the Committee for Legislation made to the House Committee on Justice (and ignored). We now expect the debate in the Senate to go in the direction we have indicated: to replace the concept of "gender identity" with a clearer and more unequivocal "transsexuality".NO TO "GENDER IDENTITY "All over the world "gender identity" is brandished as a weapon against women. Gender identity [...]
