Well they frequently threaten to rape people on twitter with them, so er ...

Also the official surgery numbers don't add up

@robin1984

Have a look at this.

It was also discussed here (lots more links).

The minute Harry, Ron, Hermione and SK have a trans partner I’ll believe them that that’s what they think, that TWAW or that TWAM.
The same goes for the posters on here that trying to get us to believe that they actually think trans women/men are biological women/men.

AbsintheFriends · 29/06/2020 20:43

Also, why the obsession with the genitals of trans people?

Women are raped by penises.

Yes Rufus, 'trans crowd' vs 'I'll rape your corpse' are not even in the same universe of gross. And yet delicate Katy is only put out by one. Hmm.

So why are they called transwomen?

RufustheRowlingReindeer · 29/06/2020 20:36

I have to say

I’ll rape your corpse is much grosser than anything exlteve could say

You could sing that if you put an air to it. But we don't have to believe it...

I have been trying to educate myself about this issue, I came across this. What are the counter arguments?

How are transwomen women?

Also, JK got King's tweet all wrong and when she posted her tweet going all 'fandom' on him, he posted back with 'Yes, Trans women are women.' She then deleted her comment and stopped following him.

@MilleniumHallsWalledGarden Unless you spend your life looking in the underwear of TW, you cannot say that is true at all. Also, why the obsession with the genitals of trans people?

MilleniumHallsWalledGarden · 29/06/2020 20:10

Sorry, that's not what Hyperbolay said at all!!

MilleniumHallsWalledGarden · 29/06/2020 20:09

Thanks sorry to hear that.

Unfortunately TW are almost all intact men, as Highperbolay said.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 29/06/2020 20:07

Also, MTF trans people don't want a "people who produce sperm" language shift, because then they'll have to confront their malebodiedness and will be in a category with all other males. It's fine to write FTMs off as "menstruators". Who cares about them?

jeffgoldblumlovespenguins · 29/06/2020 20:06

Also after past trauma, I'm less frightened of a person without a penis than a fully intact male!

Ereshkigalangcleg · 29/06/2020 20:05

Slightly off topic, but always wondered why it's always trans women that the big fuss is about. I presume there are trans men but never hear of them demanding things or insisting non-trans men are called " people who produce sperm" or such like.

They don't have the power. Men would laugh them out of the room.

jeffgoldblumlovespenguins · 29/06/2020 20:02

@MilleniumHallsWalledGarden

Okay, it refers to our respective reproductive sex roles, I agree. Why do you think we should call women 'vaginas' and what about that would stop TRAs from demanding TW to be called 'vaginas' too? How would it make any difference?
I don't not really , but if we cannot be called women , then neither should tw , why should men always keep their identity? Let them be reduced to their body parts for once !
Gibbonsgibbonsgibbons · 29/06/2020 19:59

Benny10 currently when my 11 yr old daughter is getting changed after swimming (not currently I suppose but normal times!) in the large comunal women’s changing room if a male person walks in the girls would I hope be able to scream & their coaches sure as hell would chuck out any male they spotted going into the girls changing, management would help them.
Under self ID that male just says (beard, erect penis & all) I’m a woman you bigots. And my daughter & her team mates are; watched by a male without their consent & he can expose himself to them OR they lose out on the sport they love.

That’s the tip of the iceberg. Vulnerable women in prison locked up with abusive males - it’s all ready happening Sad
