I don't care what your motivation is Robin. You are not the topic of the thread.

The fact that you have chosen to use a thread about rapists in women's prison as a platform to talk about what you want to talk about says a lot about you, but that's your look out.

Any further comment about protecting women, in case you fancy digging yourself out of the reprehensible hole you've dug for yourself here?

OldCrone · 17/02/2020 16:02

Do you think Lisa Nandy really believes that?

If she doesn't, why did she say it? It makes her sound insane.

There's a significant difference between 'identifying as' & 'identifying with'.

That’s not the definition of transsexual though is it, identifies ‘with’ the opposite physical sex.

Men can identify with women, without being transgender.

I dont use them for any form of validation

If you put me in a mens prison. I'd still be a woman. So why cant these prisoners be who they are in a mens prison?

Rape is the most Male crime possible. What changes when they wake up 12 hours after going to bed as a man and decide they are a woman?

Floisme · 17/02/2020 15:58

You've made that point already Robin, maybe you missed the response?

3rdNamechange · 17/02/2020 15:58

She's a fucking idiot. This could cost her the leadership though RLB no better.

Kit19 · 17/02/2020 15:57

You know all the effort that has been expended here on a single person is a microcosm of how much effort & energy is being expended by women just to justify their right to exist as a sex class

I think of all the things we could be doing instead of this but no we have to fight for our right to define ourselves & protect our spaces

Like so many things in this rabbit hole of a country, if you had me 10 years ago this is where women would be I’d have laughed at you...

Fieldofgreycorn · 17/02/2020 15:56

Do you think Lisa Nandy really believes that? It’s like she’s trolling this forum.

Michelleoftheresistance · 17/02/2020 15:56

I'll also point out the total lack of engagement with any points made, any effort to express why female people here are so angry with your posts, just the occasional goady and condescending post about some minor detail to keep stirring the pot.

And the complete ignoring of female people's stakes or interests.

And the complete lack of empathy with females.

And the complete lack of acknowledgement that the only reason for posting here at all is to continually discourage and invalidate females for caring about other females instead of focusing on the needs of males.

There's no interest in any kind of reciprocal conversation, so the reasons for posting at all on this thread become blindingly obvious.

RobinMoiraWhite · 17/02/2020 15:48

Women's services are not designed for your inner validation robin.

I dont use them for any form of validation. It is remarkable how folk here know my motivation better than I do.

SarahTancredi · 17/02/2020 15:41

Looking at who someone empathises with tells us a lot about how they see themselves

Thing is they arent anything like eachother. We have people who have been through the long difficult process sympathising with people who wome up one day saw the loophole and went for it.

Theres no common ground at all. Well besides entitlement.....

Goosefoot · 17/02/2020 15:30

So asking an MP three reasonable questions is an attack if the answers reveal her ideas to be unpopular or problematic?

I guess that's one way to frame things.

It shows a complete lack of empathy towards a sex that they believe they are, and should be identified as, with their comments.

There's a significant difference between 'identifying as' & 'identifying with'.

Apparent absence of empathy should always be taken seriously.

I'm sure any sex person who had raped a a child wouldn't last long in a prison full of women. Proper justice would be served, sounds like a great idea!

And yet when that does happen 'proper justice' is NOT served - more women are raped.

Coatandhat · 17/02/2020 15:17

@RobinMoiraWhite
Thanks also for this. Arguments must run forwards and backwards.

When women say they don't want men in their spaces - #nodebate

Winesalot · 17/02/2020 15:14

Robin does not seem interested at all in understanding another point of view it seems. Just validation. And continues to not answer any of the questions about their arguments for transwomen sex offenders being placed in alongside women. Just minimisation - 1 child rapist in a community of 12-20000.

It shows a complete lack of empathy towards a sex that they believe they are, and should be identified as, with their comments.

BatShite · 17/02/2020 15:11

Had a longer reply in mind, but everything I would have said has been said, so just..fucking hell, what are Labour playing at, really?!

LangClegsInSpace · 17/02/2020 15:08

TBF she was sitting on a chair while lesbian again. She has form.

NeurotrashWarrior · 17/02/2020 15:08

It's really strange but at least two people on twitter have said that Transmen are not housed in male prisons and never will be.

I don't know if this is definitely the case but they seem pretty sure it is.

  1. why is that? 🤔 (I know why, Nandy clearly doesn't.)

  2. why, therefore, are TW put in female prisons?

R0wantrees · 17/02/2020 15:06

Thank you for de-bunking Julia Long's fallacious attack on Lisa Nandy.

Dr Julia Long asked Lisa Nandy the following important questions:

Should male child rapists be housed in female or male estate prison?

Should male sex offenders who identify as women have their crimes be recorded as committed by women?

Should women in the Labour party be described as being in a 'hate group' if we ask questions like this?

This was clearly neither an attack nor based on a mistaken belief.
To make such blatent false allegations is quite remarkable.

FloralBunting · 17/02/2020 15:05

Astounding that Robin comes on to a thread about women at risk, and absolutely only sees it as an opportunity to protect Robin's current privileges about what toilet Robin wants to use.

It never fails to elicit a small gasp of disbelief from me when someone is so invested that they cannot see what kind of person they are announcing themselves to be.

OldCrone · 17/02/2020 15:03

The Prison Service's need to keep all inmates safe is, of course, very different from appropriate measures to deal with any real problems between law abiding private citzens going about their business.

Thank you for de-bunking Julia Long's fallacious attack on Lisa Nandy.

Julia Long asked Lisa Nandy about placing men in women's prisons. What has that to do with law abiding private citizens?

SarahTancredi · 17/02/2020 15:03

There are a number of reasons why people who identify as transgender seek to use facilities/spaces for the opposite sex. Its obviously not just (in the case of transwomen) about seeking refuge from potentially dangerous men

Oh dont worry I am.well aware of the deal. Its just that as far as the tras go safety is their number one concern apparently. So when its pointed out that the same men they fear can follow them there or that a third space would do the same thing or that its unfair that women can't also be allowed to feel safe, they dint have an.answer.
And as has just been revealed it's about validation.

You cant keep up the pretence if appearing reasonable when you arent being truthful.

As far as prisons go these prisoners are not content with being allowed make up clothing etc or being kept safe from the men who seek to do them harm.

What they want is women to validate them even if that's against their will.

The arguments will now get ever more defensive and I'm.sure the insults will commence soon however point proven...
