Transphobic DD.

Bugger! The links won't work from a screenshot. There are quite a few too.

I have copied that excellent post by wellbehavedwomen just to be on the safe side.

And I have collected all but 2 of the links (they are broken)

... are you implying that all trans women grow up to be rapists?..

Trans women are already grown up. The word "woman" means adult human female. God knows it's on T-shirts and stickers everywhere - you'd think people would've twigged by now.

Also, is it just me but the posts written by gender affirmative people do often seem to be written by someone whose first language is not English? Not a criticism just an observation. But I do notice it a lot. There are some belting examples just on this thread alone. I notice it so much that I sometimes find myself wondering if it's the same person using different aliases. I believe that sort of thing happens on some sites but not here surely?

Excellent post @wellbehavedwoman. One which I will be sharing with my dd.

Not overreacting at all. Speak to HOY.

Well done to your DD, it must take a lot of bravery for a teenager to go against the groupthink.

Brilliant post wellbehavedwoman. I am waiting for the counterargument from the posters suggesting we need to be educated. I think I will be waiting a long time.

are you implying that all trans women grow up to be rapists? What an utterly stupid thing to say. Oh do behave! Nobody reading Datun's post will recognise your wilful misinterpretation of it!

You're back, Cani! Have you got your evidence yet?

She's pointing out the issues. Have you actually read the OP? That's what the original point was about.

are you implying that all trans women grow up to be rapists?

Of course Datun has done no such thing

What an utterly stupid thing to say.

#NAMALT
'Not all males are like that'

She isn't implying anything of the sort.

@datun

What a ridiculous statement of course I am offended my the rape of girls, are you implying that all trans women grow up to be rapists? What an utterly stupid thing to say.

Stop getting your knickers in a twist and let people be themselves.

You really don't have a clue about any of this.

@Zoecarter I guess you would be keen to implement re-education camps for all thought crimes. I'm also guessing you have no idea what book that reference comes from, as you're far more educated than me.

Your daughter is amazing. It would be interesting to hear what they are teaching in science!

They are also not exactly teaching the kids not to bully. I would have snapped too as I get very frustrated when people don’t debate but just repeat unoriginal (and often meaningless) meme-worthy mantras over and over again.

I’d definitely go in and see the Head of Year to find out exactly why your daughter got a detention. If it’s for being transphobic then I would tell them she’s not doing the detention as it’s not transphobic to state biology. 🤷🏻‍♀️ But maybe it’s more to do with how she conducted herself, swearing and maybe there was more? As with all school incidents, get the schools version as well as your child’s and go from there. If they’re going to leave kids to basically debate what they want with no structure, I imagine they have lots of problems arising. I’m also amazed they have time on their GCSE timetable to do a subject apart from PE that’s not an actual GCSE.

I feel you need to educate yourself as it seams your daughter is being very uneducated I think the apple hasn’t fell far from the tree

Am I bad, I smirked

I certainly snorted, i was going to comment on the irony...but loads of people got there before me

OP your DD is doing a great job fighting against this madness. Mine is the same and won't just quietly sit by and let people talk utter nonsense without challenging it. Tell her she's awesome

Stop getting your knickers in a twist and let people be themselves.

We're more than happy for people to be themselves.

Its the ones advocating surgery and medication for small children to make sure they are NOT themselves ever again that we mainly have an issue with.

Oh and the rapey ones who pretend to be someone else to get their joliies.

But yes, anyone who wants to actually BE THEMSELVES, go for it.

Will people never learn that plopping into a thread to shout “transphobia!” then running away just doesn’t cut it as a riposte to posts such as the wonderful one by wellbehavedwomen?

Cis girl my arse.

Your daughter is brilliant, OP.

Evidence - alway counter with evidence. Why is that so hard for people to understand.

‘Because I said so - and then I said it again - and then I yelled it and threw in a few insults’ - is not a structured argument. It’s the debate of Twittwersphere.

The reason I am sceptical is because this girl is basically voicing all of the offensive transphobic posts on Mumsnet.

But you're fine with rapists of girls like this been put in prison with other young women?

I mean, misogyny is one thing, but the utter incoherence of being offended about a girl's detention, but not about a rapist of girls?
