I can see how you would come to that calculation!

LillianBland · 03/08/2020 15:58

@DialSquare

Exactly Lillian. And we can call then Batophobic if they try to argue!
Well, since bats are mammals and humans are mammals, it stands to reason that bat’s rights are....erm...human rights. 🤔

I’m not on Twitter but would love to see this on LOJ’s feed. I think he might explode with outrage.

If I was on Twitter, "OK Batman" would become my new retort to any ideologist who crossed my path.
Yup. That’s the perfect answer, plus curiosity about the response will get that artist plenty of clicks, so it’s all good.

Darn! *Transgenerationalphobic

LillianBland · 03/08/2020 15:38

I wanted to quote a really funny line from it, but there were so many. 🤣

Thanks OP, I’ve saved that link as no doubt the toys soon be flung at the wall, never mind out of the pram and it will be deemed transgenerationahobic 😉 and taken down.

I'm cutting bats out of black felt as we speak Grin

ScrimpshawTheSecond · 03/08/2020 15:15

NOBODY MENTION THE PENGUINS.

DialSquare · 03/08/2020 14:57

I'm a bit worried that this thread may expand to Penguin and we know what happened last time!

ScrimpshawTheSecond · 03/08/2020 14:43

The Batman bit made me proper lol

‘Batman is not a bat
He is a man
Dressed as a bat’

DialSquare · 03/08/2020 14:38

Thanks Errol. That was my understanding. Just wasn't sure if that had now been appropriated too! Wouldn't be surprised if so as many of them don't seem to know their arse from their elbow.

Muttonindistress · 03/08/2020 14:29

I love the idea of a bat signal too. It could be a sort of GC logo to put on t-shirts, badges etc. I already have a pair of bat earrings. 🦇

PurpleCrowbarWhereIsLangCleg · 03/08/2020 14:15

Bat signal! 🦇 !

Excellent.

sex is a mere construct.

I was sneeringly told how idiotic I was by a prominent Australian academic and one of her followers for failing to understand this very thing. They informed me that the language describing it was a mere construct, of course.

It was a surreal conversation that I am sure they believed was highly intelligent but it was arrogant, elitist, and completely detached from reality.

ErrolTheDragon · 03/08/2020 13:36

@DialSquare

Loved it! Although I think they have got confused on Gender is a social construct. They make it sound like that is said by the TRAs but I thought it was a feminist concept.
Yes - "gender" is a social construct, but one which the genderists try to claim is reality and pretend (I doubt honestly believe) that sex is a mere construct.

Excellent! Thank you!

This is a rap song about transgenderism and how a man cannot become a woman anymore than a man can become a bat.

The point: individuals are free to live their lives however they so desire – but biology cannot be overthrown.

@BlackeyedSusan

Wouldn't it be funny if a bat is a bat started to appear on the back of loo doors....
Maybe a silhouette of a bat with the slogan "cricket bats are bats."
