       Good Book Club meeting tonight. We had a great discussion about our book of the month which was Ann Patchett's The Dutch House and also an unexpected TERF talk.One of the women has a child at nursery and has been told that there is a another child there who is gender fluid. She was told by staff in a "we all need to support this" way but she is not happy. She does not want her 3 year old to have to cope with this and is looking for a new nursery but that is not easy.Another person then started a conversation about the horror of unisex school toilets for teenage girls. Everyone wanted single sex spaces. I said very little at first and then when I started to add a few examples of known problems caused by gender ideology they were horrified.These are not women who spend a lot of time online and are not part of any GC or TERF movement. They are mostly working mums with school age kids and book club is our monthly get together to chat about a good book and drink some wine. It gives me hope that conversations like this are happening and that most people still have some common sense. They just need to be bolder about challenging those spouting nonsense.
