School describes lesbians as non-men attracted to non-men

As if being a lesbian in 2021 wasn't hard enough now I'm a non-man 🙄 how many more labels are communities going to give me...between cis-woman and non-man I think I'm ready to give up 😂 and turn a trans-woman down my god you swear you'd killed their cat on the kitchen table whilst the kids watched....

I'm a lesbian woman, I am attracted to women. It's pretty simple really....

cold= non hot
tall = non short
light= non dark

I'm a non tall non slim non unmarried non man
peachy

And this is what happens when you start queering language, you come up with meaningless word salads like this, which help no one.

It is ridiculous, this kind of thing just fuels controversy and doesn't do anyone any favours

But why do they say either of them at all?

If non man means transwoman, I don't think that's a thing. I don't think I've ever seen or heard of a transwoman in a relationship with another transwoman. It's either a woman or a transman.

And transwoman loving women aren't lesbians, however much they'd like to think they are.

This is an ugly, badly written, ill informed piece of junk and it doesn't belong in a school.

Did you actually look at the link ?

They use the word " women"

Also they do say " non women" with reference to gay men !

Can I pop round and measure for curtains?

It does refer to gay as meaning non-women attracted to non-women, NeonDreams.

It's still word salad though!

I just questioned my cat Annabelle. Annabelle doesn't recognise dogs as 'animals', she says they're pests like insects, so she considers being called a non-dog offensive. She said she is a CAT. End of story.

They are so, so, so, so, SO desperate not to use the w.o.m.e.n word, aren't they?

I'd bet my house they wouldn't describe gays as 'non-women'.

Btw, at Father's Day just past, were there any Prostate Havers' Day cards?

Can only assume It’s a wishy washy attempt to ‘widen the concept of being gay’ to include heterosexual people, while maintaining sexist Pink brain/blue brain stereotypes.

Yes.

As a woman I feel very 'non' lots of things. Why are they focusing on non-men? I am also non-chicken, non-robin, non-deer, non-giraffe etc. I think perhaps it's much easier to say what something IS rather than what is ISN'T.

It is all nonsense.

We have satisfactory words. WOMEN and MEN.

The intersex flag is just plain wrong. People pay for an education from this school? The flags may have been produced by pupils, but presumably an adult has control of the Twitter account?

@Defaultname.

That is a huge relief. Thank you.

NON-MAN???? Why not just call us Offred and be done with it.

We can discuss the rights and wrongs of a school promoting ideas like non men etc. However, what I find really appalling is that this school is deliberating demeaning in front of the whole school and its community all of the students who have DSD. How dare they!

The intersex description is very insulting and inaccurate. I was born with what is known as ambiguous genitalia and I don’t have a mix of male or female genitalia or chromosomes.
I’m a adult human female with xx chromosomes.
Stonewall et al should never have co-opted those with DSDs to try and make a legitimate argument

This👋

So woman = non-man
But man = (non-woman)

So a woman is
Non-(non-woman)

But woman =( non-man)
So-
Woman = non-non-(non-man)
Man = non-woman

So woman = = non-non-non-non-woman

And so on ad infinitum-

Eventually you're just left non-non-non...
Repeating forever.

But it clearly says "women loving women" first, I guess they are including transmen by using the "non men" as well.
It's diversity week, they are being diverse !

Why did they need any explanation? 'Women loving women' and 'men loving men' is enough, surely?

So I guess if you are a woman exclusively attracted to FTM trans people, non binary females and women you are bisexual. When in fact you are same sex attracted.
