Greens plan to punish male members who correct women
Men who correct women could face disciplinary action under plans being considered by the Green Party.
Party bosses are considering a proposal to broaden the Greens’ definition of misogyny to the point that “any disagreement” between the sexes could lead to the man facing a sanction.
The revelation is included in an internal 53-page report on legal and reputational risk to the party, which has been leaked to the Telegraph.
"I may be guilty in my own eyes...I like being guilty in my own eyes...Kraft, forgive me for talking nonsense. Tell me, surely you don't belong to that circle? That's what I wanted to ask."
"They are no sillier than other people and no wiser; they are mad like every one else..."
"Why, is every one mad?" I asked, turning towards him with involuntary curiosity.
"All the best people are mad nowadays; it's the carnival of mediocrity and ineptitude and nothing else...But it's not worth talking about."
Fyodor Dostoevsky - A Raw Youth (1875)

Golly, does that mean that women will be free to speak out against female impersonators invading their changing rooms?
Or will the female impersonators be classed as women for these purposes?
You'd think that a bio-sensitive party like the Greens might be sound on what a woman is but I wouldn't bet on it.
"legal and reputational risk to the party,"
Other than being a one-trick pony and a laughing stock?
dearieme - I wouldn't bet on it either. They must enjoy tying themselves in knots or they wouldn't be so keen on it.
Jannie - yes, it's like Keir and Rachel talking about honesty when everyone knows they have never tried it.
Which men in which circumstances and where?
Tammly - I suspect it's within the party, but I don't want to read the 53-page report to find out.
