My elderly parents peak transed today

I was having a lively debate with my parents (both in their 80s and incredibly with it and intelligent) and the subject of womens only safe spaces came up. I decided to tell them about the proposed issues involving TIMs.

And they peak transed.

So begins the spread of this information among their friends, and the ripples will spread.

Around 80% as I understand it.

Should this charmer's crimes be recorded as being by a man or a woman?

Are there any issues about having sexual offences being committed by a trans identifying man recorded as being done by a woman?

phoenixtherabbit · 20/02/2018 20:19

Where are your stats for that?

GinAndSonic · 20/02/2018 20:18

The majority do keep their male genitals, yes

phoenixtherabbit · 20/02/2018 20:17

gin the majority? Really?

phoenixtherabbit · 20/02/2018 20:17

Danielle Muscato is quite clearly part of the minority i mentioned who are spoiling it for those who genuinely are transitioning.

Hating one person isn't enough reason to make life hard for a whole group of people imo.

If peak transed is ok, is peak (insert religion or race here)? No? Why not?

GinAndSonic · 20/02/2018 20:16

Phoenix- define "transition completely" because evidence suggests that the majority of TIM retain their male genitals and, from what I've seen online, tell women whose opinions they don't like, to "suck my dick"

Patodp · 20/02/2018 20:16

I agree that women should have rights obviously but trans people are women and for the most part genuinely feel that way and will transition completely

OK three things in that paragraph alone are the opposite of a fact.

My elderly Mum is peak transed too.

Oh i have no issue whatsoever with those who are true trans. They do not beat the demand drum as the TRAs do.

I do, however, have massive issues with those using trans for their own agenda.

It takes no persuading, believe.

Just talking openly about it is enough to peak most people.

rememberthetime · 20/02/2018 20:14

I think I managed to open my 16 year old daughter eyes a little. Essentially we felt the same on the issue - but she was surprised at some of the things I was able to tell her. However some things she did roll her eyes at and say I was scaremongering...
Her age group is the most misled in this whole thing.

TheXXFactor · 20/02/2018 20:14

Define 'woman' Phoenix, then Google Danielle Muscato and explain how she fits your definition

phoenixtherabbit · 20/02/2018 20:13

Trans activists who spread hate are just as bad as people who spread hate about trans people aren't they?

TheXXFactor · 20/02/2018 20:13

I peak trans-ed my DM in about 10 seconds. That's all it took her to work out the implications of letting men decide to call themselves women, and she was immediately worried and outraged. I'd love to set her on Maria Miller Grin

phoenixtherabbit · 20/02/2018 20:12

Because persuading people to "peak trans" or get to that point is and be proud of it is not nice is it.

You're basically saying here's x y and z reason why you shouldn't like trans people. And you can dress it up with "It's not about trans hatred it's about women's rights" but its still hatred.

I agree that women should have rights obviously but trans people are women and for the most part genuinely feel that way and will transition completely.

It's a shame that a small minority who are clearly not serious are spoiling that but also causing people to try and spread hate.

My mother who is 92 and doesn't consider herself elderly, thinks they are men in dresses and always has done.

Melamin · 20/02/2018 20:10

Peak trans is when you have listened and heard about the various issues around transgender and accommodated and taken it all on board, and really tried to understand then you come across something that is so ridiculous, makes you realise that you are being sold a pup. From that moment onwards, nothing is the same.

Ok I see thanks for explanations!

Patodp · 20/02/2018 20:09

It's great you have the relationship with your parents to talk about this sort of thing, and your right. Once you've peaked one person it sort of ripples out and more people become aware what is happening.

I peaked my dad.

Patodp · 20/02/2018 20:07

*1Strawberry

It goes

Prior to peak:
Transgender people are fine. What's the problem?

After peak:
What. The. Fuck.

Ouchbirthhurted · 20/02/2018 20:07

What hatred do you think is being spread Phoenix? People are explaining the impact of proposed law to other people who would be affected by it. What is hateful about it?

Thank you datun.

My parents and i have always discussed curremt affairs. They are amazing for their age and i love them for their willingness to listen and debate.

Peak trans is the point most ordinary tolerant nice people reach once they actual realise what is happening because of transgender ideology.

Not really Phoenix. I am very worried about men who decide they are women within a short period of time, have no body modifications and continue to live as 'men' gaining unrestricted access to women's refuges, womens wards, womens prisons and bathrooms. I have a REAL issue with it, in fact.
