Over the past two years I gave been increasingly concerned that the NFWI are sidelining the membership and using the name of the organisation to further the agendas of a small, exclusive minority. There are no longer members letters in the WI Life, resolutions for the AGM no longer have names of proposers, some articles in the magazine are published with no attribution and the content is increasingly detached from the reality of the average WI branch.

Women fought a long time for their rights and they should not be taken away under the guise of diversity.

Were we consulted? Was it debated? Were we given a vote? No! Why? Because they know we would have voted against men in our womens space.

Including males who identify as women is misogyny. Women are imprisoned with men, women are competing against men. A man should have no right to make a decision as to whether male to females are included with women. It is misogyny to call women pregnant persons. To ignore the 100,000 years of the abuse women have suffered for being weaker and female to satisfy males who have gender dysmorphia is wrong. It’s an attack on every that makes a woman a woman. No surgery or drugs will make a man a woman. I am not anti trans I know lots of trans male to females because I am a therapist for them. So I fully support the trans population and care for them. I do not want women to bear the burden of men being forced on them where they do not belong. Also know most males who want j be female are not passable, they are not feminine they are big hulking males in Europe and the USA. These are not small feminine men from Thailand who really seem they should have been born female. There is a big difference for women. Women deserve spaces, many women have been raped and don’t want to share their female only space with me dressed as women.

WI HQ is run by woke activists who think they should tell the rest of the members what to think and do. No consultation and no debate.

Females need privacy to meet and talk together. Men obsessed with things that they perceive to be feminine are men - no women has that experience.

Stop trying to erase us women. Men are men and women are women and no matter how many times you tell your lie the real women know the difference and so do real men.
