Shon Fay smearing mumsnet on twitter.

The Kurt Cobain batsignal went off

Yy to Annie Lennox & Pink.

AsAProfessionalFekko got there first but Vin is definitely wearing a Kilt

Actually I wonder if anyone has done research into perceptions of skirted/kilted men in different regions. I love a man in a kilt (tries to stay calm remembering the charity climbing done in just kilts) & as a teenager my male mates knew they had a better chance of a lumber in a kilt (in general not with me!).

Vin is wearing a kilt - doesn't count as a frock (as 5 million Scots will tell you)!

I did see man skirts in selfridges yesterday though.

yes why are they all fay and gals?

No actual woman calls themeselves a gal.

Adam Ant was my first crush. I styled myself after Boy George when I was 16. I always had a preference for men in make up.

I'm not a Vin Diesel fan but he does look rather attractive in a skirt... so thanks for that, MagneticMan.

And, I hate to say it, but I actually quite like the way Shon looks in that 2014 article.

How did our gender stereotypes become so, so narrow that any man who doesn't fall within the narrow parameters is not a real man and must be a woman? It's such a shame. Those beautiful, beautiful gender bending men of the 1980s/90s - just what happened?

And then I remember that some of this is not about accepting people who do not fit narrow gender stereotypes, it's about eradicating women.

Just such a shame.

What's with all this fay stuff? Jane Fae, Shon Fay?
I know it's various versions of fairy but why?

Shon wants to erase women but is sad that nasty people on the internet don't agree with her? Just about sums up the batshitness.

Dry your eyes, Shon. Or, to be blunt, woman up!

Loving the work on this thread!

I never can quite get over how woefully ignorant your average woke millenial is of the fantastic parade of masculine non-conformity that was the 70s 80s and 90s.

Woke Millenial: You just can't handle people who don't look like what you expect, Grandma because you're so out of touch and crap and old! Gross! Wrong side of history! You don't understand gender expression!

Posse of gimmers on this thread: hold my beer.

I too had my nascent sexuality shaped by Adam Ant pouting in make up and frills. It was glorious.

You still with us, Shon, love? Peck peck peck.

"I am so bloody sick of being accused of being transphobic when I'm really fucking not "

But why? I really couldn't give a toss anymore if someone calls me "transphobic" or "bigot" or "terf". Those words have lost all meaning in (online) discourse. It's basically just a "I disagree with you but have no actual argument so I will resort to name calling instead".

The only problem with this is, it's actually libel. Imagine someone doxxing you and repeatedly outing you as a supposed "transphobe" to your employer.

No Twitter won't tell someone who reported them.

Can I ask what happens when you report a tweet? Does it link back to you? Do they find out? What’s the deal.

Vin Diesel wearing a leather skirt back in 2003

Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g Love those pictures! I think the middle one is actually a Bowie mannequin. I would hug it and love It...l
I saw DB as Ziggy, didnt matter In the 70's what you wore or who you did it to.

What the fuck happened to us!

That The Cure video is a little slice of perfection.

The David Bowie clip is wondrous.

The Lennox/Franklin video made me cry. I may have been hanging out here too much.

So I see @Terfblock on twitter is deliberately targeting accounts.

Can I suggest that those of us on twitter start reporting back this account on the basis of targeted harassment.

Just press report, select "it's abusive or harmful", then "includes targeted harassment".

You can then add a number of tweets in the complaint.

There's plenty of tweets to select on that basis as you can see from the screenshot.

For info, terfblock is now blocking over 20k accounts - that's the size of the bubble folks.

Agree with everybody else saying the internet and ubiquitous porn have a lot to answer for. I go back further than most of you and these are the kind of images that I grew up with.

OMG I’m twitter famous!! Cheers darth :)

Shocking isn't it? I'm out too. I could be a good girl and delete a tweet but I'm not going to. Going to leave twitter to its echoes.

I wonder how many downloads it would take to get one of these songs by a gender non-conforming artist back in the charts?
