Trans women are not allowed to use Giggle

It claims to enforce this by requiring users to "verify they are a female" by submitting an image to be analysed by AI

Giggle has a community called 'Gender Identity' for women who are de-transitioning only

The CEO/Founder of this flaming pile of garbage is a notorious TERF that made a name for herself after having a hissy fit about swimming pools

She's currently trying to get a journalist fired (for calling her a TERF)

There are many more examples of why this is a terrible thing run by a terrible person, but I'm sure you all get the point.

EDIT: Just found an article where she doubles down on EVERYTHING

      They aren't even feminists.

      "No I won't think about gender being socially constructed or the implications of the patriarchy on excepted social norms. The more badder you think men are, the more feminister you are."

      Pretty sure the core logic comes down to:

      CW transphobic logic guestimation
      1. "Men are bad. Trans women are tainted by the essence of man and are therefore also bad."
      2. "Men are so bad that they'll do anything to harass us, including claim to be women just to harass us on our home terf."

      Then they build up an identity around it because it helps identify other people who are sufficiently anti-man. They must then protect this identity from "invaders". Feels like an analogue to the alt-right pipeline, but masquerading as feminism.

      ...and I wish I could say I didn't get it, men do some pretty shitty things, pretty fucking consistently, but don't take it out on trans folks. 😡

      Edit: Added CW
