I literally cannot even begin to imagine the level of cognitive dissonance the writer of this article had to employ.

Sorry if this is a repost.

And sorry for not really offering a point of view or starting point for discussion.... but.... just look...

The world has gone mad - "The 48-year-old could possibly still be living as a man."
What does the transgender thought police say we should call man identifying as a woman identifying as a man should be called? Is it possibly the only time it is okay to refer to a "real" man?

Just found this - after I just posted link to Telegraph article - about appeal on Crimewatch tonight - on the other thread 'They're watching us'.

Even a man who is on the run after committing 2 rapes has to be referred to as 'she' in case someone gets offended.

I read it with an explanation of context and my mind was too blown by the what-the-fuckishness of it all to process the smaller bullshit.

Yes, when you Google his real name there are news stories from today about Crimewatch who are going to cover this.

The story I posted does rather look like they are concerned for his safety.... which... bangs head against desk

I can't get that other link to work. The first didn't mention his criminal past. So are they worried about the safety of the public?

He was sentenced to 14 years in prison for two rapes and a number of sexual assaults, described as "truly horrendous crimes".

It didn't mention in the article you posted that he's a convicted rapist either.

Fucking hell I didn't even notice that. Also notice how it doesn't mention the gender of his victims. That he violently attacked. With his penis.

He's a man, dressed in clothes. What a ridiculous state of affairs the world has got itself into.

I just saw this on twitter. It's unbelievable the lengths they go to not to misgender them. It didn't mention in the article you posted that he's a convicted rapist either.

How heinous a crime does he have to commit before they can refer to him as a man and not his preferred pro noun?
