Just saw this - apparently he was given a sympathetic interview but it sparked backlash from disabled people (rightly so, wtf??!!!)

I have heard about people identifying as animals, children, another ethnicity to their own, now disabled… why has identifying as the opposite sex become socially acceptable but not these other identities? Surely it is equally as offensive/ bizarre?
If you believe that self ID is fine for men to ‘become women’ and vice versa doesn’t it follow you think you can self ID as anything? If everyone is simply whatever they say they are, why is the line drawn at ‘gender’?

Woke wake up. Your road leads to changing adult nappies and you can’t say no to it.

In the name of God why would he insist on university staff changing a nappy?!

Does he... does he think university students aren't potty trained?

Actually don't tell me. We all know what this is about.

I'm afraid my oh hell no moment was seeing an adult man dressed in a nappy and bonnet 'playing' on the climbing frame of a local country park.

I genuinely felt rather sorry for him, and that my inadvertent response caused him pain, but I have very young children who play in that park and it is not his space and I was not happy that he wanted to claim it.

There was a case in Canada a few years ago when a student identified as an 'adult baby' and demanded that female staff changed his nappy.

Vancouver Island University is at the centre of a human rights complaint alleging that female staff were not protected from a student who brought a diaper-related sexual fetish to the B.C. school.

The student in his 40s asked to be treated as an infant, demanding children's books be read to him, speaking in a baby voice, wearing a soother, and even submitting a selfie of himself in a diaper to one instructor

he presented himself to female staff at different campuses — in several cases asking them to change his soiled diapers.

The selfishness is staggering. It makes me want to do violence to his shins and make his dream come true.

Ugh, what a creep.

'Transagers' call themselves 'Littles'

www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Little

They often claim to be regressing to a childhood they never had, due to unspecified 'trauma'

They are often unhappy with therapists who refuse to call them by their 'Little' name, often refuse to engage with therapists who wish to help them overcome their 'trauma' and often wear nappies and inappropriately 'young' clothing.

There is crossover to the trans and furry worlds.

Needless to say, challenge them over their trauma, their fetish, their inappropriate cartoons (tracing over photos of real babies to create their fetish art, sound familiar), their unsuitability to be carers for children and there is a self pitying tsunami of DIE TERF!

I identify as a supermodel by the way.

Daleksatemyshed · 04/11/2022 18:28

I read but don't comment usually on this board but this is too much. Yes, there could be a MH issue here but really? I'm so tired of all the me,me,me of these people. Have none of them heard the words "common decency"- the idea that there are some things which are just wrong and you don't go there?

Holdonwharaboutthewaffles · 04/11/2022 18:22

It’s telling that I don’t know who is being satirical and who is being serious in reply now Shock

TheOtherWoman2 · 04/11/2022 17:57

no different to any of them identifying as an animal. it exploits the innocent animals so not sure why its taken this to kick off.

TheKeatingFive · 04/11/2022 17:49

It's great when stories like this get out, the peaking potential is marvellous

Can't we start the decent treatment of actual disabled folk before the imaginary? Confused

Don't be daft. Trans disabled are much more oppressed and discriminated against than cis disabled people. They cannot even claim disability benefits because people do not accept their right to exist. They are also refused disability affirming medical treatments. No other minority are refused the medical care they need to allow them to live as their true selves. It's tragic.

Signalbox · 04/11/2022 17:38

It's completely idiotic, but if one protected characteristic is up for grabs I think they should all be. Personally I would like to identify as 67 and claim my pension.

This stupid shit is totally restricted to rich countries. Can you imagine anyone in poor rural areas I third world countries pulling a stunt like this?

Well let's face it, if basic resources are any kind of an issue, you don't have the luxury of being able to enact being a superbrave athletic paraplegic of the opposite sex up mountains.

Jo Rowling touched on this madness in one of her earlier Strike books. As usual, she was right.

Keep watching. Transaged will sooner or later come as a serious attempt, as soon as some fool opened the door to it being possible to claim a legal fiction of being something you are objectively in reality not, this was always just a matter of time. We'll hear the cries of bigot and it being discriminatory to deny a 50 year old bloke in a nappy access to his local nursery, and to have access to all the spaces and resources for children with No Exceptions.

And at that point I shall be getting out a lot of popcorn and saying to politicians 'We told you so bloody years ago'.

This has already happened in the Netherlands. I'm on my phone so cant post the link but Google Emile Ratelband and it's on the BBC website from December 2018. 69 yo wants to be 20 years younger to avoid discrimination.
"We live in a time when you can change your name and change your gender. Why can't I decide my own age?" He said.
The court disagreed.

Probably won't put this very well, but it's something to do with wanting to be noticed for doing something they can actually do easily. Pretending to be disadvantaged so they can "overcome" the supposed disadvantage.

It's interesting because that sounds a bit like a description of Munchausen Syndrome, which I didn't think was fetish driven, but I just looked it up and apparently there are "two types" when it comes to Munchausen ( www.nhs.uk/mental-health/conditions/munchausen-syndrome/overview/ )

-women who are 20 to 40 years of age, often with a background in healthcare

-unmarried white men who are 30 to 50 years of age

So maybe it's sometimes a fetish, and sometimes something else.

I suppose the big difference between the trans-disabled thing and Munchausen is that the trans-abled people are honest that their condition is fake. I think it probably takes some social privilege to obtain real sympathy for an openly fake condition.

It was only a matter of time. Once people start believing you can magically be something you're categorically not, just by feeling like you are, anything goes.

Holdonwharaboutthewaffles · 03/11/2022 16:07

Starting to get bored of people's detishes being 'news' now. I really didn't want to know. No offence to you op.

Surely if he is paralysed from the waist down his sexual arousal must be a pretty pathetic event. Unless, oh miracle of miracles, his penis has remained unaffected by the paralysis!

Surely seeing something as extremely ridiculous as this mans pervy sexuality must make people realise that by accepting these men with their being women fantasies we are all being made complicit in their wet dreams.

Too many surely , sorry.
