Such a disgusting and vile situation that sick sick depraved pervert created for the truly vulnerable women and girls. It is situations like this that make me see how much men truly hate women and DO NOT want to see us be safe. Women who supported him are as bad as the perverts.
Nope, sorry. Not by the standard biological definitions for the sexes -- ones that pretty much everyone is playing fast and loose with. Rather clueless bunch, scientific illiterates at best.
You might actually try picking up a dictionary and reading what even the popular ones are saying it takes to qualify as male and female: no gonads, no sex. For example, see the one for:
"male: Of or denoting the sex that produces gametes, especially spermatozoa, with which a female may be fertilized or inseminated to produce offspring."
He's still male. Look inside the nucleus of a cell where sex chromatin is located (DNA) and the sex of the person can be determined. This can be done w/ light microscopy and H and E tissue staining using a buccal sample.
Nope. The DNA -- the X & Y chromosomes in particular -- is NOT what it takes to qualify as male or female.
Here's a "real" woman -- one who's given birth to several kids of her own so her reproductive machinery was fully functional -- who has XY chromosomes. You think that is maybe evidence that males can have babies? 🙄
“Patients: A 46,XY mother who developed as a normal woman underwent spontaneous puberty, reached menarche, menstruated regularly, experienced two unassisted pregnancies, and gave birth to a 46,XY daughter with complete gonadal dysgenesis.”
"XX male syndrome, also known as de la Chapelle syndrome, is a rare intersex condition in which an individual with a 46,XX karyotype develops a male phenotype."
You maybe "think" that means that some females have penises? How dare you deny Wadhwa's claim to being female? 🙄 Though that "fellow", the "XX male", is in fact sexless -- his testicles are non-functional.
XY chromosomes are TYPICAL of human males. And XX chromosomes are TYPICAL of human females. But neither XY nor XX are the essential and defining traits for human males and human females, respectively. Biologically speaking, it is ONLY the presence of working testicles or working ovaries that qualifies people as male or female, respectively.
Mr. Wadhwa is an amputee, a male amputee; a sexually deviant, sexist, misogynistic, entitled male amputee. He retains all the other characteristics of being a male: in his case not only the physical size and strength, etc, but also the male sense of entitlement to dictate to women that HIS proclamations are the rule of law.
What the F does this have to do with Wadwha/ Wadwha is not XXY, Does not have Klinefelter Syndrome or any other DSD and even if he did would not believe himself to be female. People with Gender Identity Disorder DO NOT believe themselves to be the opposite sex! They have issues with what they are.
So you would accuse a man you accidently lost his testicles in an accident or in a war or whatever or has some other testicular disorder is not a man? Or that women who pass menopause or have some disfunction are not women? I can assure you that you are wrong.
Both these types of person have the design for the right equipment coded in their genes. It is that that defines the sex of a person not some transient superficial aspect or the failing of said equipment.
🙄 You've looked? Pictures or it didn't happen ....
You too might want to take a look at my last response, an interview with her that strongly suggests "she" has had her "gender affirmation surgery":
MW: " And, and they had, in fact, the psychiatrists who did the psychiatric evaluation, which was needed to be able to have the surgery, had asked to speak to my parents, and they were very clear to me that it wasn’t because they needed to double check or, or verify my story as it happened in a previous experience with a psychiatrist. .... It wasn’t I still didn’t know till the day before my site, or two days before my surgery, where my parents actually stood, whether they were going to be with me, I knew that they loved me. And I knew that they worried about me, but you know, at some point, actions matter more than your words and your feelings. At that time, I was living with my grandmother, who was extremely supportive. .... because, you know, as, as my body transformed with transition, as I went from cute boy to hot chick and how the world perceive me ...."
But it is not the Y chromosome that makes someone a male. For example, here's a "real" woman -- one who's given birth to several kids of her own so her reproductive machinery was fully functional -- who has XY chromosomes. You think that is maybe evidence that males can have babies? 🙄
“Patients: A 46,XY mother who developed as a normal woman underwent spontaneous puberty, reached menarche, menstruated regularly, experienced two unassisted pregnancies, and gave birth to a 46,XY daughter with complete gonadal dysgenesis.”
What's your definition for "woman"? "vagina-haver"? If so then sure. But if that's all you mean by it then why can't "Ms." Tickle qualify? Bruce Jenner?
If it's the standard "adult human female" then what's your definition for "female"? An Australian "judge" was quite willing to accept "vagina-haver" as the essential criterion for that category.
But the standard biological definitions for the sexes will say that menopausees have had their "female" membership cards revoked. Likewise with "men" -- transwomen in particular -- who have their testicles removed for one reason or another. Suck it up buttercups.
The issue is what are the criteria to qualify as members of the sex categories, particularly in law. If you want to go by the Kindergarten Cop definitions -- boys (males) have penises and girls (females) have vaginas -- then fine by me. And I'm sure Ms. Tickle and her tribe will be happy with your choice. But those "definitions" are NOT what is stipulated as part and parcel of mainstream biology.
You might note what US "biologist" PZ Myers has to say on the topic:
But searching on "her" name and "transition" yields this article, apparently just two years ago, which seems to justify the argument that "she" had "gender affirmation surgery":
MW: " And, and they had, in fact, the psychiatrists who did the psychiatric evaluation, which was needed to be able to have the surgery, had asked to speak to my parents, and they were very clear to me that it wasn’t because they needed to double check or, or verify my story as it happened in a previous experience with a psychiatrist. ....

Rape victims not wanting to be around men is a perfectly normal and healthy reaction to being traumatized by a man. It is basic self-protection, which the trans movement wants to strip from women and girls. Wadhwa deserves to be the first resident of Ilha da Quiemada Grande, Snake Island in Brazil, that is so infested in venomous snakes the public are not allowed to go there.
Wow, this guy is the ultimate Trojan Horse for violating women's spaces and furthering the trans-cult's ideology. That the media uses feminine pronouns in reference to him is continued evidence the tenets of this cult are to be adhered to at all costs. Rape victims be damned. Feelings of the trans-cultists is what's really important, even when reporting on an outrageous story such as this.
To hell with the needs of rape victims as long as it's politically expedient. The women who STILL support this trash must be doing so either for financial or political rewards.
I'm sure they did. He looks like a man with moobs, he sounds like a man.
To give them the benefit of the doubt, maybe they were trying to 'be kind' and didn't want to 'see' an Indian woman as masculine because 'woke reasons', 'women of color' and stuff. Or, they believe that men who say they're women should be considered women and who are they to judge. Amazing, isn't it, that people forget what women look like when some obviously male troon shows up claiming to be a woman.
Oh, they could see that he was a man alright - the powers that be (Maggie Chapman and Nicola Sturgeon MSP to name but two) defended him to the hilt when his lies were initially found out and ensured that he remained in the position, presumably as some kind of consolation prize for missing out on a plum spot in their political party.
The three of them deserve long sentences for having the upshot of causing further unnecessary trauma to those who have already been deeply traumatised IMO.
That's right. Isn't he married to some big-deal rich guy who's highly placed in the Scottish government? Wasn't this tied to Scottish independence somehow or other?
I read that he'd applied online and was hired based on his lie-filled application in which he checked the F for female box, and claimed prior rape crisis center employment--to apply for the top position, obvi, he had to claim prior experience! So, even though it was rubber-stamped by unseen forces promoting the gender industry, that was the explanation for how he could have been hired 'as a woman' when he clearly wasn't in the first place. And got other men posing as women hired as intake persons, i.e., those who asked questions of the assaulted women and wrote down all the details, and no doubt using that very private terror as his own porn supply.
How many women would have lost out on places in the shelter due to the presence of this AGP, rape apologist creep? I really hope a class action lawsuit can be taken out against the shelter and this man as well. The only way these places learn is if there are financial consequences, it is clear they do not view women as human.
Quite a few, actually. I read on Twitter that women weren't going there because they didn't want to deal with perverted men like Wadhwa. Can you imagine? Trying to manage rape trauma and not being able to use a nearby facility because it's riddled with porn sick bastards like Wadhwa. It's absolutely criminal.
Thank the Lord for Beira's Place set up by Joanne Rowling where women could find refuge away from men. My hope is that Edinburgh Rape Crisis can now link with Beira's Place and serve women better. BUT, what's the bet they will not shake off their woke ideology? Even for the sake of abused women.
When they let women know "Edinburgh rape crisis centre isn't for you, bigot", to traumatised women requesting female only care... at the "female only" rape crisis centre... Mridul even went one further by having all staff under instruction to deliberately neglect to refer those women seeking *actual* female only rape crisis service, to Beira's Place. He refused to even let them know it existed. Just refused service and made out like they were on their own because they were bigoted human garbage. I wish I was surprised at how sadistic some men and their pathetic handmaidens can be toward raped women. I think it's because theres just so damn many of us, we're proof that the comfortable notion "men are nice guys by default'' is clearly untrue. How dare we bring the superior character of our overlords into disrepute! We must be punished. Again. Disgusting.
11:45 Yes. He confessed to enjoying the "customer service" aspect of the role, whilst acknowledging that it was unusual for the CEO of an NGO - calling it "A way to help keep things FUN in the workplace" in at least two different longform interviews.
Fun. In a rape crisis center. These men are so lacking in self-awareness and even minimal displays of empathy it would be funny if it weren't so harmful.
One doesn't have 'fun' in a rape crisis center. The boss/admins might want to lighten the mood among staff to keep their morale and motivation up, there might be birthday parties for staff, admins might spring for everyone's lunch once a week, go out of their way to make staff feel appreciated, offer counselling to staff, but...fun? No.
I once featured in a play by Libbe Halevy in Hollywood, entered into an ARTS Festival contest of some kind, I forget now, called, "Hotline." The setting was a phone room for a sexual abuse hotline and the interrelationships of the operators. It was a very serious subject, but the play had many comedic moments. I got the biggest laugh in one of my scenes.
They need the airy-fairy language because they might have a cognitive dissonance ouchy if they admitted they chose to utilise their resources (rape victims) in order to uplift the feminine cocque
You look beautifully in shape Karen. Do you exercise daily? Or is it better to take days off? I‘m not sure. Some say daily is fine as long as you‘re not doing excessive work out, others say it‘s better to exercise every other or 2-3days/w. What do you think? Sorry off topic, I‘m too sick of these men in our spaces…although this is something to celebrate that one has resigned!! Doesn‘t solve the underlying issue overall though.
I've been riding about 100 miles per week and cut WAY back on snacking.
Definitely take days off. I generally ride 4 - 5 days per week, depending on weather, ride intensity and mileage. This week, I did a 16, a 20, a 30. The 16 was slow and flat - because I was tired. The 20 was fast and flat. The 30 was hilly and not only the fastest 30 I've done in years, but the fastest hill ride I've done since I was in my early 40s. I have 34 miles to go to finish out the 100, so I'll do 23 - 25 today and finish up with a mellow 10 either Sunday or Monday.
Yes, these men are so freakin' tiresome.
It's also good to have rest days so you don't get burnt out. Doing endurance cycling can get boring, so taking days off lets the desire to ride return.
I’m glad he’s gone but he got way Scot free imo. What a disgusting thing to do and you are 100% right Karen. He did all this in order to feed his narcissism. Him and his handmaidens sicken me. The only silver lining here is that this will hopefully start a precedent that women only spaces are just that. For women only.
I don't like Harris because of her stance on gender woo, but...she did hand Trump his ass, which was good to see. Finally, someone has stood up to him. Did my heart good.
I have not been a big Trump fan but objectively speaking that debate was unfair as both moderators we biased toward Harris. They let Harris weasel out of answering questions and fact-checked Trump left and right but never did so w/ Harris even though she told some lies that they surely knew or should have known were lies.
The thing with trump is, that his common misogyny is common to all those at the top. No difference. Biden, Clinton, even JFK. Carter? I liked what he had to say here.
Karen firstly love the hair I hope you are going out somewhere special. x.
I would like to say I didn't know what motivates AGP's like Whadwa but sadly I cannot. It is just fucking sad that they let him resign rather than fire his arse.
The UK has a real problem in calling out anyone who doesn't have white skin! For instance. Today in the UK 7 Pakistani men were convicted and sentenced to a total of 107 years for raping girls as young as 11. The media barely mentioned it for fear of stoking racial prejudice! Who the fuck care what colour or race they are? 11 year old grirls for fuck sake !
Everybody feared calling out Wadwha because he is Indian not just a Troon, double whammy as far as Scottish government and the Labour party is concerned.
that reminds me of how when yasmine mohammed tried to speak up ahout her abuse she was pretty much told that it was okay for her family to beat & abuse her because "its their culture!" and they probably justified not helping her by telling themselves that it would be "prejudiced" for them to put a stop to it & get her out of that household (as if it was somehow not prejudiced to allow her to keep being abused & to use her racial/cultural background as a justification for why she didnt really need or deserve the help she tried to ask for)
Such a disgusting and vile situation that sick sick depraved pervert created for the truly vulnerable women and girls. It is situations like this that make me see how much men truly hate women and DO NOT want to see us be safe. Women who supported him are as bad as the perverts.
I'll be talking about some of the handmaidens who supported and STILL support this creep. It's really quite something.
The transmaidens really are a disgrace, There's a special place in hell for women who betray women.
#NotAllMen ... 😉🙂
Though if he cut his dick off then he's not really a male either, just a sexless eunuch.
He's a man with no dick. Still a man.
Nope, sorry. Not by the standard biological definitions for the sexes -- ones that pretty much everyone is playing fast and loose with. Rather clueless bunch, scientific illiterates at best.

https://web.archive.org/web/20190608135422/https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/male
People who once had testicles but don't have them anymore can't very well be producing much in the way of sperm -- ergo, sexless.
He's still male. Look inside the nucleus of a cell where sex chromatin is located (DNA) and the sex of the person can be determined. This can be done w/ light microscopy and H and E tissue staining using a buccal sample.
I think this person is a troll, they've tried to pull similar nonsense on other videos
🙄 “troll” seems to be the go-to replacement for the so-called “race card” these days:
“A tool of the intellectually weak and lazy when they cannot counter a logical argument or factual data."
https://twitter.com/adamcarolla/status/1421138069026074628
You have any sort of a rebuttal? Or just some more butthurt? 🙄
Nope. The DNA -- the X & Y chromosomes in particular -- is NOT what it takes to qualify as male or female.
Here's a "real" woman -- one who's given birth to several kids of her own so her reproductive machinery was fully functional -- who has XY chromosomes. You think that is maybe evidence that males can have babies? 🙄

On the other side of the coin, see:
"XX male syndrome, also known as de la Chapelle syndrome, is a rare intersex condition in which an individual with a 46,XX karyotype develops a male phenotype."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XX_male_syndrome

You're talking about DSDs-anomalies- exceptions that prove the rule. Do you have citations for what you've asserted?
So you would accuse a man you accidently lost his testicles in an accident or in a war or whatever or has some other testicular disorder is not a man? Or that women who pass menopause or have some disfunction are not women? I can assure you that you are wrong.

He still has his dick and his Y chromosome. He's a man - all his ID says so too...
I hope Child Protection Services looks into the lives of the CHILDREN he and his 'husband' are fostering!

That Wadhwa has apparently had "her" dick and nuts removed makes her into a sexless eunuch. No longer a male.
So you are claiming that all post menopausal women are not women.
You do talk a lot but are totally full of shit.
What's your definition for "woman"? "vagina-haver"? If so then sure. But if that's all you mean by it then why can't "Ms." Tickle qualify? Bruce Jenner?

The snakes are hungry, let them eat troon

It's sick beyond all belief.

Thank you so much for your hard work. A happy day indeed.
You're welcome.
We've all waited a long time for this. I'm so glad it's finally happened.
I'm doubt we have heard the last of him. He will surely land on his feet in some other exalted position.
I think he's already gotten some other big-time job having something to do with computers.
These f*ckwits always seem to land on their feet.
You look beautifully in shape Karen. Do you exercise daily? Or is it better to take days off? I‘m not sure. Some say daily is fine as long as you‘re not doing excessive work out, others say it‘s better to exercise every other or 2-3days/w. What do you think?

The 20 was fast and flat. The 30 was hilly and not only the fastest 30 I've done in years, but the fastest hill ride I've done since I was in my early 40s. I have 34 miles to go to finish out the 100, so I'll do 23 - 25 today and finish up with a mellow 10 either Sunday or Monday.
Yes, these men are so freakin' tiresome.
It's also good to have rest days so you don't get burnt out. Doing endurance cycling can get boring, so taking days off lets the desire to ride return.
I’m glad he’s gone but he got way Scot free imo. What a disgusting thing to do and you are 100% right Karen. He did all this in order to feed his narcissism. Him and his handmaidens sicken me. The only silver lining here is that this will hopefully start a precedent that women only spaces are just that. For women only.
I also love what you said. Some women hate us more than men do. We wouldn’t be in this situation if that wasn’t true.
That's the best news I've heard all week. (OK, second-best after Kamala Harris's victory over the orange slime in this week's debate.)
I don't like Harris because of her stance on gender woo, but...she did hand Trump his ass, which was good to see. Finally, someone has stood up to him. Did my heart good.
I have not been a big Trump fan but objectively speaking that debate was unfair as both moderators we biased toward Harris. They let Harris weasel out of answering questions and fact-checked Trump left and right but never did so w/ Harris even though she told some lies that they surely knew or should have known were lies.
The thing with trump is, that his common misogyny is common to all those at the top. No difference. Biden, Clinton, even JFK. Carter? I liked what he had to say here.

LoL. Still some reason to think that Trump is the proverbial, lesser of two weevils.
Karen firstly love the hair I hope you are going out somewhere special. x.
I would like to say I didn't know what motivates AGP's like Whadwa but sadly I cannot. It is just fucking sad that they let him resign rather than fire his arse.
The UK has a real problem in calling out anyone who doesn't have white skin! For instance. Today in the UK 7 Pakistani men were convicted and sentenced to a total of 107 years for raping girls as young as 11. The media barely mentioned it for fear of stoking racial prejudice! Who the fuck care what colour or race they are? 11 year old grirls for fuck sake !
Everybody feared calling out Wadwha because he is Indian not just a Troon, double whammy as far as Scottish government and the Labour party is concerned.
that reminds me of how when yasmine mohammed tried to speak up ahout her abuse she was pretty much told that it was okay for her family to beat & abuse her because "its their culture!" and they probably justified not helping her by telling themselves that it would be "prejudiced" for them to put a stop to it & get her out of that household (as if it was somehow not prejudiced to allow her to keep being abused & to use her racial/cultural background as a justification for why she didnt really need or deserve the help she tried to ask for)
