I'm thinking Owl should stick to Owl's day job (is there one?)

I’m endlessly baffled at how TW always seem to think they pass as women. They never, ever do. Not even a bit.

It takes a certain weird self obsession to make a fictional film, that you write yourself, where you make the characters go through the pantomime of believing you're the opposite sex.

It's like the unpopular kid making a film where everyone in the class is clamouring to come to their birthday party.

Gosh, that was like the cast of Crossroads decided to cross dress and act even more badly than usual.

What's it up for? The Acorn Antiques homage prize?

The bloke is a transman called Lewis hancox. Lewis doesn't really pass if you see more of Lewis.
That film was perplexingly odd. I genuinely don't understand the point they were making.

I missed the rowing. But transwomen are keen on women's sports, so we could work it in.

I'm telling you, Van Damme as the cat sitter. But I think there should be a lobster in there too. Because you really should get emojis into film as much as possible. [Painty Nails] [Crown] [That Holding An Invisible Tray At Head Height Sass Pose]

Has anyone worked out why two transwomen are rowing yet?

LemonJello · 13/10/2018 23:03

Action!

It looked like 2 transwomen having a tiff over a cat and eavesdropping on an unclear phone conversation with a random drunk bloke in the middle. If the bloke is a transmen he's the only one who passes

I’m #teamcat. Burn me at the stake if you have to. I ain’t for turning.

KeiTeNgeNge · 13/10/2018 23:00

So, they link to trans....? It was thinking of a more vulgar link myself Grin

Husband is reading a book about Salem witch trials. Apparently cats were viewed with suspicion because they are independent, unpredictable, can't be controlled, come and go as they please and don't do as they are told. They were animals with a mind of their own.

KeiTeNgeNge · 13/10/2018 22:17

What is the cat thing?

R0wantrees · 13/10/2018 16:16

I've been reading quite a lot about the 'cat thing' its not always good reading.

DisrespectfulAdultFemale · 13/10/2018 15:56

I think the cat was there because women like cats and men like dogs.

True fact.

I once used to "accidentally" text a crush I had, as if I'd mistakenly included him on some (fake) exciting weekend plans and not realised.

Looking back, I properly cringe when I think how naff it was, and how glad I was that he never replied or mentioned these "slips" of my texting fingers.

That's how this feels. I am cringing for their future selves when they look back on this whole episode in their lives.

Isn't this Stalinism, I'm not massively read on Stalin but my basic knowledge draws comparisons?

I haven’t watched yet, but Owl’s film sounds like the Home Bargain version of The Lives of Others. Stalinist indeed.

The non-binary identity and push for rights associated with this is serious.
If Non-binary identity is legislated then anyone can access anything and everything if they identify as non-binary since it means both neither sex and both sexes.

LizzieSiddal · 13/10/2018 14:27

This “non binary” stuff, I’m very confused. Isn’t it just “people”?

CaptainKirkssparetupee · 13/10/2018 14:25

This is what Non-Binary Looks Like

Looks a lot like a trans man and woman doesn't it?

LizzieSiddal · 13/10/2018 14:24

The quality of acting/script/direction reminded me of my Dd and her friends’ films, when they were in Y6 😂.

R0wantrees · 13/10/2018 14:20

Fox and Owl, 'This is what Non-Binary Looks Like'

Cocolepew · 13/10/2018 14:16

Maybe Fox was playing the cat?
If so , bravo Flowers

TheCbeebiesYellowBlobs · 13/10/2018 13:48

WHAT! Owl was not born a woman?? I'm sure everyone is shocked when they find out. Within seconds of meeting Owl in person or speaking to Owl on the phone. Or even interacting with Owl online.
