The authors are entitled to withdraw their own books from being considered for the prize. This wasn't enough though. They then produced a letter calling for Boyne to be kicked off the list. Just another example of trans activist bullying. It shames the organisers of the Polari Prize that they caved in to it.

In your opinion.

No?

Turns out the trans community call their own pretty TiMs, 'Dolls' and the ugly ones, 'Bricks'



What more odd is that they are trying to claim the Bricks can't have access to female toilets because their not feminine enough 🤔

Tell me you don't know sh!t about the trans community without telling me you don't know sh!t about the trans community...

I didn't know they were calling themselves dolls and bricks- it's rather funny

As with 'fish' being a term for male drag performers who perform femininity (because actual women's vaginas are detogatorily said to smell like fish...), these terms - dolls and brick - just show what sexist ideas and stereotypes underlie the whole movement.

Caricatures of mobster's molls as portrayed by actual women in a 1950's musical is hardly the same as men who aren't women calling themselves 'dolls' in 2025.
