It was me that asked. And yes it was wrong and it has been deleted. Quite happy about that it was a flippant comment.

But in all seriousness most TW don't have genital surgery, and the reason Ava hasn't been challenged in the ladies is that most women know that and are too fucking scared to challenge TW in their spaces. Having endured a lifetime of assault at the hands of those born male they know the risks are too high.

I have one and so has my wife.

Haha!!

VickyEadieofThigh · 15/06/2020 17:23

In any case, we have no control over who wanders on to Mumsnet and starts flinging anatomy-related insults at people or asking them about their anatomy.

Have we?

PurpleCrowbarWhereIsLangCleg · 15/06/2020 17:23

So, cocks erased but cunts allowed to stay?

Job's a good 'un.

AvaMonroe · 15/06/2020 17:23

Thank heavens the majority of society doesn't think like this, You can kid yourself and believe they do but you'd only have to post half the shite that has been posted here on social media and you'd have your ass handed to you, The attempts at throwing shade I really have to laugh.

FloralBunting · 15/06/2020 17:23

Beer we can't discuss someone's genitals. I think that's a fair rule, tbh.

But I DEMAND you all acknowledge my ravishing beauty.

Datun · 15/06/2020 17:23

This is gender ideology to a T, isn't it?

Male privilege coming smack up against the complete destruction of their fondly held idea that women are subservient.

We're not doing What we're told, and we don't need the fainting couch when someone says cunt. Or cock for that matter.

LastRoloIsMine · 15/06/2020 17:22

It was asked on here.

Well I would think it was deleted then which is good.

FTMF30 · 15/06/2020 17:21

@nauticant I think that's actually true. I ended up down a rabbit hole once after fact checking an arguement about Dennis Rodman. Anyway, I ended up watching a documentary, I think on YouTube, about Marsha P Johnson. I ended up watching the whole thing. I think she was a pioneer for trans rights.

Beerincomechampagnetastes · 15/06/2020 17:21

Why are we all allowed to say cunt but we can’t talk about cock????

Just asking..

OvaHere · 15/06/2020 17:21

@FloralBunting

Cunts in ALL CAPS too. Madame, with this high tantrum, you're really spoiling us.
Do we have a Ferrero Roche emoji? We really should have one for moment like this Grin
Ihopeyourcakeisshit · 15/06/2020 17:21

Absolute cunts Indeed we are.
Jealous?

VickyEadieofThigh · 15/06/2020 17:20

Definitely. I'm a cunt & sos my wife.

I have one and so has my wife.

AvaMonroe · 15/06/2020 17:20

@LastRoloIsMine

I have gone back the last few pages and cannot see a post asking if you have a cock Ava . Did you mean on here or in real life?

MonsteraCheeseplant · 15/06/2020 17:20

Yes it's been the most entertaining bun fight I've seen in a while.

Dummies definitively thrown out of the pram.

SarahTancredi · 15/06/2020 17:20

No last they were asked and I think it was deleted and rightly so.

But women aren't doing as we are told so it was never going to go well anyway

FloralBunting · 15/06/2020 17:19

Cunts in ALL CAPS too. Madame, with this high tantrum, you're really spoiling us.

PurpleCrowbarWhereIsLangCleg · 15/06/2020 17:19

I think the cock was deleted.

The one on here. Don't know about the IRL one.

Michelleoftheresistance · 15/06/2020 17:19

I am female,

You've explained that you are a TW, so unless you weren't being honest about that, you can't be can you? Female is a biological fact, not a choice of label. It's also deeply appropriative. I doubt you'd appreciate me as a biological female insisting I was a TW after all - I could not possibly be, and it would be deeply disrespectful to people for whom this is their reality, and appropriative of their identity, language and lived experience.

the way the world is going now gender specific bathrooms will probably be a thing of the past.

There's no such thing as a gender specific bathroom, they're not generally separated by gender choice. There will for the foreseeable future need to be sex specific toilets (bathrooms is a very American word, is that your homeland?) although I'm very much in favour of additional mixed sex toilets and spaces for those not happy to use those of their birth sex.

In the event that there was not sex specific toilets of course - what would you do with the large numbers of female people who no longer had access to any toilets? Often because of issues of race, culture, disability, trauma as well as those who just want and need basic privacy from biological males when undressed and vulnerable?

Those females are also tax payers, entitled to have their needs met, and of course it would hardly be just to deprive many female humans of any provision in order to ensure male humans had access to all the provisions for their better happiness and inclusion. There's this whole problem in that biological females are a thing too , in fact they're 51% of the human race, and they're not just an afterthought in the primary aim of ensuring male humans however they define are supplied with everything they need.

OvaHere · 15/06/2020 17:19

@LastRoloIsMine

I was asked if I still have my cock?

Who asked that?

I think that's a personal question and not one I would ever ask anyone especially a stranger.

I dunno.

It could have been phrased politer but it's not irrelevant if someone male is going to pitch up on a board for women and demand subservience and access to our spaces. Then yell at us when we take issue with it.

titchy · 15/06/2020 17:19

I was asked if I still have my cock? Whoever said that is a cunt and I don't care if I get banned for saying that, AN ABSOLUTE CUNT.

That was me. Rightfully deleted. But you won't get banned for saying cunt. We swear quite lot here. And I'm happy to be one, and happy to have one.

Datun · 15/06/2020 17:18

Definitely. I'm a cunt & sos my wife.

🤣😁🤣

Oh, we're a right set of c*nts, without doubt Grin First truthful word you've spoken!

DickKerrLadies · 15/06/2020 17:18

@Beerincomechampagnetastes

I can't actually believe that people are allowed get away with talking like this

I know, shocking isn’t it? We just won’t do what we’re fucking told will we?
