If you’re non binary, why do you chose the girls changing area?

@Thewindwhispers

Because being ‘non binary’ is all about exerting power over others, policing their speech, and making them uncomfortable, while claiming the moral high ground, and all that doesn’t work out so well in adult male spaces.

It’s bullying, basically, and bullies pick on the weak.

what it should be about (if anything) is rejecting stereotypes. If men took that view then the conversation would be about accepting rejection of male toxicity - and doing so in male spaces not imposing on women.

You're right. Distracted by talking to my own 15yo and thinking about how this ideology is harmful to them.

I believe JellySaurus that these were young 9 - 10 year old girls - 5th graders as they're called in the United States?

@fuckoffImcounting

Why speak of 'girls' and men? It indicates a disrespectful view.
It's relevant and not disrespectful, as I think this thread refers to a recent case where an adult human male chose to sleep in the girls' dormitory with 15 year old human female children.

@FlibbertyGiblets

should have said if you were incorrectly assigned female at birth but actually have no gender.

Hiya just so I can understand what you are intending me to understand - this means an infant observed to be female at birth who was subsequently found to be a male infant (not sure how, genetic testing or something?) and in later life decided they had no gender, yes? I am quite happy to be corrected. Thank you!

I meant female who later decided they had no gender. Not saying there is any sense in it.

Sorry, that was to elferian.

@SunniDelite

"Non-binary" is a joke. There is no way that I would ever accept that someone is neither-male-nor-female. The absolute conceit of people who want to force everyone to deny the evidence of their eyes. I'd love one of our lurkers of the TR persuasion to explain to us what it actually is....
Absolutely agree it is a joke, how can you not be male or female? And please don't bring DSD into this.

Because for a lot of men "non-binary" actually means "not the default sex" - which is male. So you are either male or "other". See also The Greens referring to women as "non-men". They just can't get their heads around men not being at the centre of the universe.

@ShortnStout

because you are a non binary woman

I think you’ve just misgendered the non-binary individual there…

Non binary is not male or female so they should use the unisex changing room!
By girls do you mean young female humans or adult human females?

elferian · 21/02/2022 13:47

because you are predatory
because you are a voyeur
because you are scared of other men
because you are a non binary woman (you did not specify :))
because you seek out validation from fawning women

will let you work out what % apply to each of these
