Get ready for some "incredibly important images" of topless men with their fake boobs blacked out. Laura Pollock is a reporter for The National and filled us in on the "impactful topless protest" outside Scottish Parliament Saturday, protesting the Supreme Court's ruling that a woman is an adult human female. "It was an incredibly powerful statement," she reported with no apparent bias.
I was at today's rally against the Supreme Court ruling where a group of trans women staged an impactful topless protest outside Holyrood 🚨

Multimedia journalist Pollock reports:
A GROUP of trans women have staged a topless protest outside the Scottish Parliament to denounce the recent UK Supreme Court ruling and confront what they see as the Scottish Government’s failure to respond with strength and solidarity.
The photo caption reads, "Protesters carried white roses, mourning what they describe as the death of transgender rights in the UK."
Males getting their moobs out isn’t impactful. If they were brave and wanted impact they should have gone for a bottomless protest to show us what they want females to see and bend the knee to.

Didn't see that one coming.
We can't believe they went to the trouble to black out or blur all of these male chests.
So men protested then.

It was very impactful.
It showed those passing by how ridiculous you all are.
And it showed the desperation of men who aren't allowed in women's spaces.
So dudes took their shirts off?

So stunning. So brave. Humanity has never seen such bravery, comrade.

I simply cannot understand why women don’t want these people in their single-sex spaces. It’s a complete mystery.

Grassroots journalist lol

"Grassroots reporter." You propagandize for a multi-trillion-dollar trans-pharma industry that targets the unwell and unhinged, getting them to sacrifice their health, bodies, sexual function, and organs at the altar of profit. Fraud. Homophobe. Misogynist. pic.twitter.com/mSLVtbBGpc

What was the powerful statement and just how are the images ‘important’?

Images so important that they were censored. 🤔

Some noted that there were no arrests for indecent exposure, because it's not illegal for men to go shirtless.
Did you get round to asking what rights the middle-class white men are lacking?
— Arsey Noel (@sparerickypanda) May 17, 2025
Did she ask what rights middle-class white men have that trans women don't?
