'cute and tiny and flirty and frilly' - aka female

'I get to be cute and tiny and flirty and frilly and delicate and cry' says a Tweeter.

  1. How does transitioning make one 'tiny and delicate'? Matter can't suddenly vanish. Science rapidly disappearing into a black hole.

  2. And why does 'female' magically equal physically diminished, helpless AND infantilised?

Losing both adult physical mass and brain development?

I don't know where to start.

This is joining 'letting out a squeal because wearing pink' on my 'WTF this is an insult' list.

70sWitch Exactly - I've learned so many words and read about so many practices I'd no idea about a year ago.

What was everyone else's WTF moment?

Since my first #stickerwoman hashtag sighting on Twitter last summer caused me to take a look around me, I've accidently seen some images I can't unsee, screamed 'aaaarrrg wtf' SO many times, realised how far feminism and gay rights and children's rights are under real threat etc etc.

Ugh. Since all this transgender stuff became a main focus I (and many others ) have learned more about men's varied and revolting fetishes than I ever wanted to know. That stuff can't be unlearned.

I think the day will come when they will wish they hadn't let that genie out of the bottle.

Wow, there's an actual term for it.

Autopedophilia is a word.

journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0956797616677082

'Men sexually aroused by the idea or fantasy of being the kinds of individuals to whom they are sexually attracted have an erotic-target identity inversion (ETII). We conducted an online survey to investigate the prevalence and phenomenology of ETIIs among 475 men sexually attracted to children. Autopedophilia, or sexual arousal by the idea of being a child, was common. Furthermore, autopedophilic men tended to be sexually aroused by imagining themselves as the kinds of children (with respect to gender and age) to whom they are sexually attracted'.

Nice screenshot Hamster just in time for Easter too....

Just wanted to say you are all brilliant. I'm loving #busy.

The case is also reminding me of the Challenor business www.mumsnet.com/Talk/womens_rights/3346800-Andrew-Gilligan-Sunday-Times-Challenor-Green-Party

This is a child fetishist. Is autogynaepaedophilia a word yet?

It's missing the point talking about the different ways to be a woman. This person doesn't want to be a woman, they want to talk about being a girl.

Today I wore skirt and summer top and sandals then changed into boots, jeans and sweatshirt to clean the oven and dig some plants. Then changed back and drank rose wine. Where am I on the gender spectrum? Oh yes. #BusyXX

Cunty - I think you're on the 'busy' part of the spectrum! That's it. Just 'busy' compared to a lot of us!

(Imagining you shovelling the soil onto a strange 'lamb bake' pit, with the lamb encased in a lavender bag. Whilst wearing...clothes!)

pombear · 21/04/2019 22:43

Hamster nails it.

You really only need a couple of minutes scrolling on many of these profiles.

On one hand, this should be the reason why we shouldn't even need to be talking about this here. Women don't need to be justifying what is and isn't a woman with regards to this person who is up on twitter chattering about 'frilly' stuff but also about their dick's sensitivity and being an anal slut.

But on the other hand, these are the people that the woke-tribe think they are defending, the most vulnerable, most unsafe people in the world. (I only hope it's just ignorance, and they're not thinking WhoDis really is the most vulnerable group of women in the world?)

Cuntysnark · 21/04/2019 22:03

Today I wore a mans t shirt & mans shorts and work boots with a steel toecap. I shovelled a ton of soil and cooked 8 hour lamb & cut out a felt shape for a lavender bag. Where am I on the gender spectrum?

Erythronium · 21/04/2019 21:35

No they're not. But there are certain types of people who do think little girls "flirt". Possibly the same type of person who would imagine they were a little girl themselves.

ErrolTheDragon · 21/04/2019 21:19

Sounds like the description of a toddler girl in a pink dress. They literally are cute, tiny and delicate and they do cry.

They're not 'flirty' though...

What is going on in the heads of these people?

...???

StealthPolarBear · 21/04/2019 21:11

One thing I have noticed since all this crap is how many different shapes and sizes women do come in. How different we all look. And yet we're all instantly recognisable as women.
As far as I can tlll though all trans women are caked in make up and wear revealing clothes (I know some biological women do this too). So little variation.

BareBelliedSneetch · 21/04/2019 21:05

I’m 5’2” and totally un tiny, cute or frilly 🙄

I look like a pig in a doily if I try wearing anything frilly.

That’s not my femininity.

boatyardblues · 21/04/2019 21:02

This reductive gender essentialist crap breaks my tiny, cute heart.

Arf!

boatyardblues · 21/04/2019 21:01

Frills on clothing are something I actively avoid - too much volume and more faff to iron. Gravy catchers (frilly/fluted sleeves) are the worst.

Julietee · 21/04/2019 21:01

I’m a 5”8 bodybuilder and I would look ludicrous in fucking frills.

This person could be all these things with a functional feminist system. This reductive gender essentialist crap breaks my tiny, cute heart.

Well clearly I can't be a woman. Comes as a surprise after all these years but can't recall a time when I could be described as cute or tiny and sure as hell not got frills in the wardrobe. It sounds like some weird fantasy far removed from the lived experience of any woman I have ever known.

The children of friends have displayed so much imagination in who they choose to be on any given day and your hope is that that freedom continues for their whole lives. I would hate to think that as young women they would be stunted by trying to be cutesy and girly or that the boys would be unable to show emotion in some stupid macho stereotype
