Another Female Sex Offender

I'm not saying this person with an Adams apple, high hair line and conviction for a crime 99% of the time is committed by a person with an XY chromosome is not female (and yes, I know females can be deviant and evil to).

But, how can I be sure they are female, how can I know that what is reported is factually correct if we are not allowed to state biological facts.

Could be worse, Rufus. I was eating when I scrolled down as far as that photo.

There's a small part of me that wonders if we should actually have a trigger warning before such photos, for the sake of us agp-survivors. But the larger part of me is distracted by a strengthening of my aversion to feminine-sexy coded stuff.

Could be they've described this individual as female because there's a GRC. If there isn't, it's a straight-up lie.

Trying to redefine "adult" too.

QuentinWinters · 13/10/2020 09:50

bore thanks for posting those 🤮
Seriously. Calling transwomen "female" is a new layer of obfuscation. Maybe this is the response to pushback on redefining woman. If we insist woman = adult human female, they will try to redefine female. Hmm

Its the female bit that gets me as well

Person A ...Can we all share the word woman?

Majority of the population...of course, we want to be nice and kind And we can still use male and female to differentiate when absolutely necessary

Person A....lovely, thank you...oh I’m taking female as well

Majority of the population....oh that’s no problem, means the same thing anyway

I did think the mail was a bit more in the ball with this

They don't care, and they couldn't resist the "female sex offender with 50 previous convictions" angle.

And they've had training from Mermaids.

If anyone sees those photos and don’t say “well it’s obvious that’s a fucking man” I would assume they were blind.

I mean good god!

And bore there’s a special place in hell reserved for you with those photos Envy

Personally I think this is a wilful mis-reading of the IPSO guidelines, which are fine with you printing a person's sex, but should only print other info if it's relevant.

This is just blatant false reporting, that person's sex is not female, and is therefore, in my opinion, against the guidelines.

BowlerHatPowerHat · 13/10/2020 09:26

I don't understand why editors who want to make it clear it's a man have the words woman and female in articles. Why not write: person, aged 56, ...
Most people would picture the correct sex of the perpetrator given the crimes listed. Surely that wouldn't break some publishing code of practice.

The comments are always full of ‘ugly woman’ ‘women are just as bad’ posts and i sit there thinking ‘how are you unable to put two and two together’

BoreOfWhabylon · 13/10/2020 08:53

I know! I get The DailyGlinner email and just had exactly the same reaction!

RufustheSniggeringReindeer · 13/10/2020 08:52

Oh shit on a stick bore

Im sat having a nice coffee and you do that!

BoreOfWhabylon · 13/10/2020 08:49

Thes pics are freely available on Rachel's Facebook, according to @Glinner (Don't do Facebook myself)

SusannaSpider · 10/10/2020 19:27

I tried to post a comment several times. They were all rejected.
AhSad, I asked because it seemed strange that no one had pointed out the obvious in the comments.

RoyalCorgi · 10/10/2020 12:37

They seem to have stopped publishing comments yesterday - the last one is 21 hours ago, about lunchtime on Friday. Probably they were inundated with comments and decided they didn't have the time to moderate them all so just didn't bother to publish any more.

Apollo440 · 10/10/2020 12:22

I tried to post a comment several times. They were all rejected. So women can continue to get the blame for this crime, which is exactly what TRAs want. The only fly in the ointment is that to rape someone in the Uk you need a penis and those crimes are harder to hide

willloman · 10/10/2020 12:21

Yes, I did wonder at this too. Doesn't sit right somehow.

corlan · 10/10/2020 12:19

I think Rachel may be identifying as 56 - either that or Rachel had a very hard paper round.

Melroses · 10/10/2020 12:15

Those comments must be heavily censored. The picture looks like my local butcher with long hair (his was still short yesterday - phew!)

StrangeLookingParasite · 10/10/2020 12:06

@SusannaSpiderHands

What would happen if someone was to say, "Erm, I think that woman might be a man" in the DM comments section?
It would be unlikely to be published.
Apollo440 · 10/10/2020 12:02

They won't allow you to post a comment pointing out the obvious. To add further insult to injury they have said 'female' rather than 'woman'. Another word loses it's meaning. Apparently their sex is totally irrelevant to this type of crime.

justanotherneighinparadise · 10/10/2020 12:00

This is becoming confusing isn’t it!!!

Suffrajester · 10/10/2020 11:54

@DryHeave

The comments are depressing.
The comments are heavily moderated. I wonder if there were a few pointing out the elephant in the room and then deleted.

It's so depressing that biological facts are being ignored.
The comments seem to be along the lines of "women" get an easier ride because of their sex and men have a harder more discriminatory time in terms of sentencing, because of their maleness.

But the reality is that some men who think women get an easier time are very wrong. Women don't tend to commit sex crimes, unless with a male accomplise, therefore some mitigating circumstances, ie coercion, mental capacity, etc.
But most infuriating is that the real fact based stats on crime must be wildly inaccurate, which will lead to policies and future guidelines/law being unfair to women and trans people and, dare I say it, men as well.
