Slightly off topic. Kept the TV on after Piers to hear Lorraine discussing autumn fashion. Apparently colourful balaclavas are going to be in this season's must have. Great for hiding the Adams apple, stubble and manly jaw. Grin

Ha! I remember posting somewhere on here that it would be GG that would bring the whole nonsensical trans edifice tumbling down. Hopefully that's the case.

Pretty sure 'Doctor Who is a woman now' is going to be used as 'evidence' humans can change sex too.

GulagMilkMonitor · 25/09/2018 08:36

will interest girls and women who've been raped or sexually assaulted by boys of 16 and under, won't it? yep! I was sexually assaulted by boys in my teens and a girl I who went to school with was raped by a boy in her form at a “unisex sleepover” in about 1997. She became pregnant and a teen mother because another child raped her.

Name change. Posted link on twitter. Smile

@MNHQ - why can't we do paragraphs any more?

MIdgebabe · 25/09/2018 08:30

Some one really needs to explain to mermaids that children commmit sexual abuse and upnto 20% of men have commmitted acts of sexual abuse and NOT ONE of them put a sign on their forehead to make the women aware before the event. We have no way to distinguish the good guy from the bad guy because they bad guys lie.that is why we have segregation. Sex segregation treats trans exactly the same as another other child. Letting a transgril in with th girls is treating them differently

Guiding leader here. Aghast at Girlguiding. Will not be leaving though. I might be very misguided but the more that leave, the more room for people who might have disturbing intentions to work their way in.

VickyEadie · 25/09/2018 08:29

This mantra 'It doesn't matter because they're children' will interest girls and women who've been raped or sexually assaulted by boys of 16 and under, won't it? And girls and women who ever had sexual relationships with boys of 16 and under? The notion that no trans person could ever do anything unpleasant is as stupid as it is untruthful.

WasabiSpring · 25/09/2018 08:28

Someone on Twitter has made a very good point that there are rules (when it comes to social housing at least) regarding boys and girls sharing bedrooms at home. Quick google shows NSPCC recommends that children 10 and over of different sex should not share a room.

Bowlofbabelfish · 25/09/2018 08:27

Gosh. Never thought I’d be applauding piers Morgan, but we live in interesting times. Caroline excellent. SG still pushing incorrect info unchallenged- but looked very weak.

hasopinionswilltravel · 25/09/2018 08:26

Right. So on risk of pregnancy for the girls, Susie Green is asking us to believe that trans girls are so lovely and fluffy and harmless that they don't have sex, ever? Pull the other one Susie, this is teenagers we're talking about.

derxa · 25/09/2018 08:24

Meanwhile, BBC breakfast are running news reports about doctor who, Scrabble and hedgehogs. It really is crap

derxa · 25/09/2018 08:23

Watched this. Trans guide leaders???

finnmcool · 25/09/2018 08:23

Sorry, every article/ thread that is discussing women's rights/ safeguarding etc.

FlippinFumin · 25/09/2018 08:22

I just asked my 14 yo granddaughter if on a school trip she would happy sharing sleeping and showering spaces with a boy identifying as a girl. Her answer was 'No they are still a boy, and boys are horrible'.

Gileswithachainsaw · 25/09/2018 08:22

Ooh when poss cab we have a catch up link please

TheFairyCaravan · 25/09/2018 08:22

Piers Morgan was brilliant. I really wasn’t expecting that.

GulagMilkMonitor · 25/09/2018 08:22

Lots of people in the comments saying they want to know who is around their children. Can anyone on Twitter share the link to the FPFW consultation page on that thread?

Juells · 25/09/2018 08:22

“you are picking on them...you are othering them” Ummm...boys are 'other' as far as girls are concerned. Calling them transgirls doesn't change the fact that they're boys.

finnmcool · 25/09/2018 08:21

I'm not on twitter, but would it be worth posting a link to the consultation? I have been shocked at how few people are aware of it. I just feel it would be worth posting the link onto every twitter thread and newspaper comments section.

Wrathofjurgenklop · 25/09/2018 08:20

Thankyou Piers.

DriftingLeaves · 25/09/2018 08:19

That's brightened my morning. TRAs have been forcing through their nonsense for too long. Time to push back.

vivariumvivariumsvivaria · 25/09/2018 08:19

I hope we can watch it on catchup. I've heard Caroline speak before, she's brilliant. She very politely gives zero fucks.
