She has neither said nor done anything reprehensible, immoral or illegal. Twitter is not the real world.

No-one should be vilified for speaking the truth.

We must not eradicate the female sex. Sex is not gender.

Jess de Wahls is compassionate and rational - unlike the RA.

Jess’ views are not transphobic. They reflect reality and truth. Sex is real. Men cannot become women through surgical intervention and hormone treatment. Being a woman is not a feeling. It is a fact.

They may be coming for the artists now, but don't think they won't come for you next.

Her work is beautiful. Her opinions are valid and protected by law. Grow up and stop bowing to McCarthyest views on who to support and who to cancel. You’re embarrassing yourselves.

So sad that women are penalised for expressing a personal view about their human rights which is wrongfully perceived by some as discriminatory. The arts are about freedom of expression. Removing De Wahl’s work is both oppressive and discriminatory.

I will call for a boycott of RA, and that members cancel their subscriptions, if Jess’s work isn’t reinstated for sale in the RA shop. Stop this Maoist madness.

I have been a Friend for many years.I was furious that the RA has bowed to the trans mob and banned the work of Jess de Wahl.I can assure you that unless her work is reinstated and is available in your shop I will cancel my membership and encourage my friends and family who are also friends to do the same.
