MNHQ Deletion Policy

and no picking me off Rufustheconstantreindeer. Is this the bit where the tastiest looking person gets eaten?

An atrocious ciscunt!

miscrecunt? I'm one of those

Nah i reckon cunt is still fine

Or woo as we say in my house

I think the problem is that your definition of transphobic and mine vary wildly IWillReportAllTransphobicPosts.

I've gone a got my Oxford dictionary down from the shelf (you made me get off my arse, I hope you're all pleased with yourselves).

Woman: noun, adult human female
Female: adjective, of the offspring bearing sex

So that gives us

Woman = adult human of the offspring bearing sex.

Now as long as I don't yawn, hopefully this post can stand.

Or must I say ciscunt now?

An atrocious ciscunt!

I am unsure if the mods understand that these people came to hurt Mumsnet, not the women who comment here.

What I'm getting from the mod comments in this thread is a. no, they don't understand that, and b. they don't care if the non-TRA women who comment here are hurt.

I reported the odd PM I received a couple of hours ago, and have been asking for clarification on what user data mods currently have access to for about as long. Response? Nothing.

Hygge says that she's been asking to have her history deleted even since the data breach and she's being ignored too.

The definition of Woman according to the Oxford English Dictionary - both the hard copy I hold in my hand, and the 'google' online definition is "Adult human female."

Words have meanings. Language has established definitions - otherwise none of us know where we are.

I just got deleted for posting dictionary definitions of the words Female and Woman
Well that’s ridiculous, if we can’t even post the definition of words then debate is truly dead on mn, how can discussion of feminist issues, happen if we’re not even allowed to define what we’re talking about, dictionaries are banned content now?

female
ADJECTIVE

1Of or denoting the sex that can bear offspring or produce eggs, distinguished biologically by the production of gametes (ova) which can be fertilized by male gametes.

woman
NOUN

--yawn
VERB

1no object Involuntarily open one's mouth wide and inhale deeply due to tiredness or boredom.
‘he began yawning and looking at his watch’--

Surprised MNHQ haven't got a splinter in their arse from sitting on the fence.

"Really cote. Was it a literal definition"

Yes. It went something like ^Your DD may be womanly ("feminine") but is not a woman as per dictionary definitions Woman = Adult human female, where Female = Of the sex that can bear young or make eggs.

@MNHQ - I would really like to understand why that post was deleted. Are we now considered too sensitive to deal with dictionary definitions now?

Are we going to have to start screen shotting all our posts now in order to know what was deleted and stand any chance of following a thread?

Cunt.

Can I still say cunt?

Or must I say ciscunt now?

For the record - authoritarianism is not a progressive position. Forcing other people to do what you want by threatening them is coercive and controlling and if you do it you do not in any sense have the moral high ground.

And that's just IWill. Super explicitly tied their attempt at coercive control in with an implied threat of legal action against anyone who won't obey them.

You know what, you two? You're the baddies.

Actually it is a problem

Censorship (and reporting) relies on how you define transphobia.

What one person thinks is transphobic another might disagree with.

I also believe strongly that in processing and understanding you NEED to have tolerance in that. Policing how things are phrased does not allow people to explore issues on their own terms.

AND YES it has to be on their own terms not the terms of someone else.

This is why I never could.

I never could do things well enough or to the right standard.

It left me more resentful than over the actual concept. It was THIS not being trans that ultimately was the bigger hurdle.

I ask you to reflect on that.

When you 'defend' your child you do so in a way that feels aggressive to others. That feeds this monster of a cycle of frustration, lack of ability to communicate and utter resentment.

You become part of the problem rather than the solution you think you are imposing.

LET IT GO.

Give some leway. I know what this does and how it destroys.

Penis/testicles/prostate/XY= Male
Vulva/ovaries/womb/XX = female

Is that transphobic?

Will it get deleted?

I wonder if we are being harassed/modded by the rogue intern's friend?

I'm bored of it already Rufus

Cote posted a dictionary definition of the word Woman.

MNHQ - wtf is going on?

Oh its like one of those scary movies where people get picked off one by one

I dont like it

"If you discuss things using transphobic language I will report you."

What would non-transphobic language look like then, if even dictionary definitions are deemed "transphobic"?

I would like an answer to TheUterati's questions, MNHQ.

I would also like to ask if stating biological facts, as supported by evidence-based, widely accepted science - is going to be deleted in future?

An example - A penis is not a female organ, it is a male sex organ. I'm assuming this factual statement would be allowed to stand on a women's feminism forum?
