Trans Fact Checker

Long time lurker, first time poster. This link was shared on one of my networks today and it’s very useful - unpicking various claims by trans activists including that half of trans children attempt suicide or that sex attacks by ‘never happen’.

Also, generally speaking (and I know no one person can speak for everyone) are people on these threads as opposed to transgender men (women to men transitioners) as they are to transgender women?

I not opposed to either of them. They can dress how they like and call themselves what they like. It’s a free country.

I’m very happy that they have the same rights as everyone else, as long as they don’t remove mine.

I just don’t want biological males in women’s safe spaces, getting women’s awards, redefining the word “women” , speaking for women, removing women’s legal protections and playing women’s sport.

It’s quite simple really.

Yes, agree that's slightly confusing. They should have kept to the same term for both figures.

nellieellie · 13/12/2018 09:11

Just a query, on the fact checker, the bit about number of attacks on women, there is a reference to “transgender males” which the fact checker “debunker” ingenuously pretends to be confused about. But this means trans women doesn’t it?

As predicted, here is the attempted 'de-bunking' of the transfacts.

That's completely hilarious Grin is it a parody?

I know it isn't

I especially enjoyed their response 'no, our brains are not plastic, they are made of human tissue'! Wonderfully ignorant.

Surely it is a parody. Like the picture of an Apollo rocket on the launch pad with the moon in the frame offered as proof of a hoax because 'the rocket wasn't even pointing at the moon'.
It's just too stupid.

There’s an apt quote from Chris Morris in Jam.

“Stupid people are great at winning arguments because they’re too stupid to realise they’ve lost.”

Deliriumoftheendless · 12/12/2018 20:16

That comment about brains not being plastic... how the help do people tell what’s a spoof and what’s not?

stillathing · 12/12/2018 19:54

You said, "No our brains are not plastic they are made of human tissue.

ROFL. I think you need to look up the concept of plasticity in brains.

This has made my evening!

Gileswithachainsaw · 12/12/2018 19:42

That's weird cos they always manage to dig up exampleslies to post on threads about women. Are are supposed to believe they can't Russell up a few cases of suicide now?

People aren't opposed to transwomen; people are opposed to the erosion of women's rights in favour of people born biologically male. This erosion, it's worth noting, is not In the name of what were traditionally called 'transexuals' but by and for people who retain the male biology from which women's spaces are intended to separate us.

DisrespectfulAdultFemale · 12/12/2018 08:00

Excellent article. Thank you for sharing it, OP.

RiverTam · 12/12/2018 07:45

Thanks for this, OP. Maybe one of us should send this to West Yorkshire Police...

Gileswithachainsaw · 12/12/2018 07:01

Brilliant.

Now we watch it be pulled apart but the tras whilst being accused of murdering trans people and denying existences Hmm

NameChangerAmI · 12/12/2018 06:25

Can someone explain the law in this country? I think I'm already supposed to know this but I don't, and UK wasn't on the list. TIA

Also, generally speaking (and I know no one person can speak for everyone) are people on these threads as opposed to transgender men (women to men transitioners) as they are to transgender women?

Sorry for my ignorance on transgender issues - but I'm keen to learn!

VovoBickie · 12/12/2018 06:03

Thank you

OldCrone · 12/12/2018 00:19
