Some of you who aren't total haters come across as sheep who are yourselves repressed trans individuals worried about coming out and being liberated.

You say you don't conform to Gendered stereotypes but you are also afraid to discard them and truly be free of 'sex' altogether, it makes no sense.
It's funny and confusing to see you go around in circles with your wrong and confusing logic, "I'm a woman but i don't like pink and have short hair", sorry to break it to you but this isn't the words of a woman, you are a repressed transgender person, you are a man!

Woman wouldn't say half the stuff that is said here, look at yourselves, most, if not all of you are probably male brained.

It's nothing to be scared of, you are special and brave to admit it rather than constantly assume it's bad and to try.

Ask yourselves this, would actual women plot the destruction of a small minority group like you people are?

I think this has been a fun thread! I'm still giggling at the idea that PROGRESS is the reason the pink/blue nonsense is so prevalent these days.

It's made me rethink the situation I saw the other day at my daughter's nursery, when a father steered his son away from the pink bike, saying "no, that one's for girls, this is the boys' bike" and helped him onto the black one. I thought he was old-fashioned and sexist, but actually he just understands more about brains than me! I've got a lot to learn.

OP, I play rugby and love baking. I on't like pink, but neither do I like blue. My favourite colour is green.

I can change tyres and check the spark plugs on my car, but I also sew my own clothes.

What should I do? Am I a man or a woman?

Pythagonal · 13/02/2019 10:03

A vuvla?!? Is that a new Swedish car make? 😆

I came here prepared to get annoyed, but this is actually enormously entertaining Grin

ask any lesbian approached by a transwoman!

is this really an issue?
Everyone has the right to refuse sex, it's what consent is about.

C’mon everyone this is so OBVIOUSLY someone winding us up. Probably a GC feminist exposing the ridiculousness of some transgender thinking. Very funny!

Ribbonsonabox · 13/02/2019 10:01

More in common with men.... because you have short hair...... hahahahahaha....... no.

This is exactly the same as saying 'I dont see colour' why would you want to 'play the victim'
Not helpful, just a silencing of peoples experience of oppression.
It doesn't matter whether you pretend biological sex exists or not you will still be oppressed on the basis of it.... you will still have physical impacts related to it .... this is what 'being a woman' is.... not some random grouping of likes and dislikes or the way you've cut your hair ffs

Titania McGrath, is that you? Its very good, but I think it probably works better on Twitter. On FWR the illusion of wokeness isn't quite so convincing. But as far as attempts go, I'd say it was extremely impressive.

Onlyinanemergency · 13/02/2019 10:00

"Vuvla"!

CuriousaboutSamphire · 13/02/2019 10:00

Right now it's sexual intercourse, but this has nothing to do with gender. Good grief! A true statement. Gender is indeed irrelevant... ask any lesbian approached by a transwoman!

littlbrowndog · 13/02/2019 09:59

Maybe should be at holiday sports camp being as how it’s half term or doing some revision

CuriousaboutSamphire · 13/02/2019 09:58

I want a Vuvla!

At last, someone whose fingers are as fat as mine Smile

gamerchick · 13/02/2019 09:58

How do humans reproduce? How does evolution occur?

Right now it's sexual intercourse, but this has nothing to do with gender.
A person who has a penis fertalize an egg held by one who has a Vuvla.

Ah well. Off to work I go.

Thanks Jax Terry

Honestly @Terrycotta , it's like you're not even trying. If you want to stir everyone up, you really need to raise your game!

Pythagonal · 13/02/2019 09:55

Sex is not important anymore, humans are evolving beyond the need for things to be classed by sex.

How do humans reproduce? How does evolution occur?

RomanticFatigue · 13/02/2019 09:53

I'm a man?
Fantastic. When do I get my pay rise?

CuriousaboutSamphire · 13/02/2019 09:53

Sex is not important anymore, humans are evolving Not without sex they aren't! Grin

My understanding seems to be above yours, if you think it's just a binary choice. You see, you are now talking to a number of women who were young in the 70s and 80s. We have always known that presentation of self doesn't have to be either/or according to gender stereotypes. We have always played around with those! We have never meekly accepted the polar opposites of GI Joe and Barbie!

You have utterly misunderstood your audience there! It is us who fuck around with feminsim and masculinism and we don't care! We just present as we see fit. You can't squash us back into geder stereotypes, we simply won't go!

Tolleshunt · 13/02/2019 09:52

Who said satire was dead?

More please, OP!

GerdaLovesLiIi · 13/02/2019 09:51

Even I think the OP is being a bit illogical here...

You do realise that not so long ago (60s/70s/80s) there wasn't this massive influx of pink in a "girls'" section? There were just children's clothes.

Yes, and why do you think this has changed, it's because our understanding of brains has changed.
