Are we allowed biscuits? I feel like we're not allowed biscuits. But why?

Oh no, what to........

A boy is conforming to the "norm" and wishes to express himself in a creative way

Therefore MNetters must MUST (I TELL YOU) kick off and blast anybody that disagrees with what they say!!

Drag is not about men/young boys performing in something other than trousers and wearing makeup (men have been wearing makeup since the 16th century and heals, in fact, heals were worn by men to ensure grip while riding horses), it is also about women wearing/performing as men! These are known as drag kings, they're not so heard of because it looks like the norm to most and is not questioned (because they just look androgynous) just accepted.

Just look at Annie Lennox for example

It's funny isn't it? "I am not just a boy in a dress."

I suppose they aren't "just" that, in the same way that I am not "just" a mother. But a boy in a dress is exactly what they are. Note that I am not saying this in a hateful way, I think it's lovely that he enjoys wearing dresses, he is free to express himself how he wants. It doesn't change his sex though.

My dd was watching that the other night. We had a very interesting conversation.

I felt very sorry for that poor boy. He had loads going on. Too much for a kid. He needs some proper support. I hope he gets it.

Well the BBC is a bit crap for that though. Has been for a while.

It’s like saville never happened.

I think they fell a while ago.

This just confirms it in case there was any question.

When Hey Duggee comes out as trans let me know.

They fell a long time ago. Look up I am Leo.

Yay! What's wrong with that?

Sadly, the new normal for BBC. Sad
