Then on what authority did you make your assertion that women should not be traumatised by a male exposing his penis in a hitherto exclusively female space? I remind you that in the UK 97% of women between 18 and 24 have been the victim of sexual harassment or assault.

And yet, Jones, I’ve been asked to write several articles, papers, chapters for journals, newspapers, periodicals and books precisely because I AM an authority on ‘trans’ issues. Now, I trust the opinions of my peers rather than the spleen ventings of the random incognoscenti.

Mate, I’ve been the victim of rape on two occasions. The second incident, in September 2006, led to a trial in Luton Crown court in March 2008 and precipitated several years of self-harm, depression and PTSD. In the light of that, I suggest you delete your Tweet.

Not all women are ‘gender critical’, Jones, but, crucially, they are all women. And you’re not.

Jones, you accused me, twice a victim of rape, of ‘making a mockery’ of sexual assault. I suggest, once again, that you delete that Tweet.

You know nothing of my extensive academic research, Jones, which extends to Mexico and Central America and which informs my social media feed. I’m sufficiently old, successful and financially secure to not have to pander to anyone, certainly not patronising small fry like you!

‘Penises are not that devastating. Most people cope with them …’ It’s not the penises, Jones, it’s the men to which they’re attached.

Unfortunately, Jones, the vast majority of ‘trans’ identifying males remain in permanent possession of their meat and two veg. They’ll spend thousands on facial ‘feminisation’ (sic) and breast implants, but their love guns remain firmly girded to their loins.

She’s a woman, Jones. That IS her authority.

How on earth are women supposed to discern the intention of any be-penised male who enters their spaces? Do you have a checklist? A set of simple yes/no questions that distinguish the good guys from the bad? In my experience attack is the best form of defence.

So in your opinion, Jones, women who object to the presence of male genitalia in their spaces, for whatever reason (rape, sexual assault, indecent exposure) are, by definition, ‘immature’.

Not much ‘made up’ about these ‘scenarios’, Jones. And let’s not forget, the vast majority of sexual offences go unreported.

Jones, women defending themselves against rape, sexual assault or indecent exposure is not ‘vigilantism’. The criminal process is quite straightforward, citizens have a right to use reasonable force to protect themselves. Mate, it’s basic A level law!

Jones, I’ve been quote tweeting you all day because you’re a godsend to the ‘gender critical’ cause. I’m so glad blokes like you weren’t around when I ‘transitioned’ 35 years ago, you’d have made my life, and my relationships with women, an absolute misery.

If only they were, Jones. If only they were …

A pistol in its holster is relatively safe, but when you whip it out and wave it around in people’s personal spaces, it soon becomes an assault weapon.

I was going to call out BBC World Service on a similar issue earlier today when they reported that 97% of the people of Timor Leste ‘identify’ as Catholic. In their day to day expression and practice of faith they clearly ARE Catholic, one can’t identify as what one already is.

Bona tarda! I’ve negotiated a 36 hour #SlowPyrenees pass. Sadly, no Fiat 500 today but, knowing how much I dislike Hyundais, the lovely people at the Lleida office of Alamo Rent A Car have sourced me a Seat, which doesn’t tell how to drive. Blue skies, nice route planned for tomorrow.

Some unexpected acción ferrocarril! The summer weekends Tren dels Llacs ready to depart La Pobla de Segur for the stunning 90km journey through canyons and ravines back to Lleida. Those locomotives built in 1968 and 1969, are spotless! #SlowPyrenees

As I’m no rush to arrive at my overnight destination, dinner isn’t served until at least 20:30, I made a PrePyrenean detour, following a mountain road that twisted and turned through semi-deserted villages. A short hike brought this reward. #SlowPyrenees
