I was at the meeting. This was indeed said by one of the audience members who was discussing how transgenderism relates to big pharma and the environment in general.

I'm not a scientist, do I can't comment on whether is true or not. However, I do believe that many fish are capable of literally changing sex.

I cannot watch the actual video at the moment, but given this is in Prick News, I expect what was actually said to be distorted beyond belief. Kind of like when it was claimed that one of the speakers had said all trans people were parasites, which was untrue also.

I have actually heard of this transfish stuff before though, on another site, months and months ago. Apparently (though this may have been clickbaity also) its because of how carelessly some dispose of medications, mainly the pill. And its 'changing the sex' of some fish. Or something. Vaguely remember it. Not sure if its possible or not though.

On a scale of 1-10 this is a 10 for bullshit

TerfsUp · 15/06/2018 22:47

Does that mean that John Dory are being mis-gendered?

SupermatchGame · 15/06/2018 22:45

so why blame Trans people

Why blame trans people? Why indeed MsJones.

A question you will have to put to the erudite sole who proclaimed to do so at the event. My own view is there may have been some people at the event who are so biased against trans people that they seek to blame them for many things and cast them in a bad light at every opportunity.

Perhaps you might like to watch the video? You should be able to catch what she says - just turn the volume up if you are a little hard of herring.

Dont normally stick up for Pink, but this was a woman at the meeting, she really has not helped the cause and made a mockery and played into the Trans Hands,

Rudd-y cheek, blaming the rainbowfish

TerfsUp · 15/06/2018 22:43

It's just another plank(ton) in the TRA platform.

TerfsUp · 15/06/2018 22:41

The article (un)fairly warms the cockles of my heart.

Was the research pier-reviewed?

TerfsUp · 15/06/2018 22:41

This is the result of TRAs trying to mussel into women's private spaces.

TerfsUp · 15/06/2018 22:40

How shellfish of Prick News to single out transpeople.

TallulahWaitingInTheRain · 15/06/2018 22:39

PN is floundering a bit there

Kettlepotblackagain · 15/06/2018 22:39

Was this by the Women’s Plaice group?
