38 yrs ago.... from when on? this article seems to need quite some work. - --145.107.11.220 (talk) 12:53, 30 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sun newspaper quoted her age as 38 http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/features/2947611/Man-who-makes-science-cool-signs-as-Sun-science-professor.html , but she says that they are wrong, http://twitter.com/giagia/status/12873292340 , http://twitter.com/giagia/status/12873402190 , http://twitter.com/giagia/status/12873466852 , http://twitter.com/giagia/status/12875104505 . i'll remove it until someone finds a source. --194.36.2.60 (talk) 11:07, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I suspect the Sun used this page as its source... Khcf6971 (talk) 11:11, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Gia Milinovich and Radical Feminists . Controversy ?

[edit]

She writes under the twitter name GiaGia. She is a Rad Fem or TERF. Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminist. Her set goal is to have "penis free " spaces from men. What is it that makes this person notable ? 24.24.142.155 (talk) 16:02, 14 May 2015 (UTC) https://storify.com/giagia/no-unexpected-penises[reply]

I've read the storify article a couple of times now and it genuinely reads like a misunderstanding and not worthy of appearing in wikipedia, particularly in it's original form. The original version that appeared in this article was IMHO very one side but I am not capable of producing a version that is both interesting and neutral.
As an aside I notice that you have reverted 3 peoples deletes of this section which means you are wandering into 3RR territory,

There is no misunderstanding. It has been up a full 2 years without correction or alteration. You saying it was a "misunderstanding" is merely making excuses. Gia posted it publicly, it has created a controversy and should be included in the most neutral manner. If you can find a more neutral way to present it please do but until then you are reverting it for reasons that have nothing to do with wiki. The editors you claim I reverted are on my talk page ended up understanding it was her public blog and finally agreed to not revert it any more. I left it for a good long time waiting for a response and consensus. This section was posted a year ago so don't try and say I was in a rush or did not give other editors time to reach a consensus. 24.24.142.155 (talk) 05:45, 3 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]


Gia Milinovich Controversy

[edit]

Milinovich authored a storify project based on her past experiences with being flashed by men. She used this as a basis to exclude transgender women from "women only spaces". Claiming that as some of them still had a "penis" they were potential flashers. She stated "Cos, you know, I should be able to somehow magically see into the minds of the penis-bearers and, you know, determine their intent and, I mean, you know, #NotAllPenises!!!!!" [1]

As me and other editors have said on your talk page, you have to prove that including this information would be appropriately balanced in her biography and not "disproportionate to their overall significance to the article topic." You have to show this by linking to reliable sources that show that this story received significant reception and then it must be made sure that we are giving due weight to the viewpoints present. Why are we including this specific story and not her recent tweet that spotted orange pants clash with black upperware? or her tweet saying "American ex-pats, don't forget to register to vote and request a ballot if you haven't already:"? You have to first show that this story received significant coverage. Opencooper (talk) 06:10, 3 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
