How do you speak up without being called transphobic

And the word transphobic has become so overused (and ludicrously used for things which are quite clearly not transphobic) that it's become just white noise.

So, eh. (shrug).

If I see people using cis, I assume they are both credulous and misogynistic.

Yes roaring!

check the post under your original one for one reason.
As for its original meaning in science and in geography it means this side of.

In transgender terms (if you believe in the ideology) its means either 'not trans' which would make trans the starting point or that you identify with the gender that you were identified as at birth.
This again assumes that you agree with gender ideology and not sex as the major factor of your body.

I find the appalling Katie Dolatowski situation very useful in explaining why trans-identifying males must be kept out of female only spaces.

KD is a 6’5” male convicted sex offender who attacked 10yo and 12yo girls in the women’s toilets of a supermarket. KD hid his true identity and was placed in a Leeds Women’s refuge with women and children there. Upon discovery, KD was returned to Scotland and sent to prison. Having beaten up a fellow male prisoner, they are now in a women’s prison.

KD illustrates so many situations where males should be separated from women, and what happens when they aren’t. Any sane, reasonable can see how awful this is.

It’s absolutely disgusting that vulnerable women and children are at risk because of political or religious views that TWAW.

I would respect you more if you didn't use "cisgender".
It implies that everyone believe in your ideology.
I respect trans women (and trans men) as trans people.
Until they mis gender me with the term "cis", using the terms of your ideology is literal violence.

You don't.

Transphobic has lost all meaning, and serves only as an attempt to smear.

Ha ha yes of course this can work really well. Make them fully explain their misogynistic position whilst you stare back intently with a look of complete incredulity.

spike = spoke. Bloody phone.

Yes.

"You see? By thought, by word, by deed, you will be judged a sinner OP. No way to avoid it, so you might as well not bother worrying about it. Any more than anyone else telling you you're damned according to their religious faith."

Exactly. When everyone wakes up to this madness, the ones that spike out can hold their heads high. The ones that collaborated....can't.

I don't know how to voice my opinion without accusations
Simple: don't voice opinions. Just ask them questions. For best effect, use a concerned and caring head tilt.
See if you can get the other side to explain their opinion. They usually can't.

No kidding.

The bloke from Jane Eyre, dear Mr Brocklehurst, would slide into this attitude towards women without the faintest ripple. Soulmates in all directions.

It's just shut up sit down and do what the nice man tells you. Just dressed up !! Differently. Different generation, different words, same shit and same effect though.

You can't. So just embrace it.

I first came across the three letter word that cant be used here at a work meeting to support a 'transitioning' person. I have even forgotten what it was supposed to mean.
I could google it, but can I trust the source?
Could someone who knows kindly explain the origin or why it was invented.? I get that it is considered offensive but dont know why.

I'm not sure which three letter word you mean? Usually so long as you're not applying an offensive word to or at someone it's okay, could you miss out some letters and type it out?

Short answer: you can't. It's a very effective silencing tactic. I expressed concern about troubled teenagers losing their fertility and was told I wanted all trans people to die. You just need to ignore it and keep speaking out.

Yep. Even looking at local issues alone I am left with some truly weird options, none of which I can bring myself to endorse.

@SamphirethePogoingStickerist ooh political homeless twins

This whole thread will disappear soon, just like all the others.

Big Brother is watching. There is no free speech allowed on MN unless is the right (pro-trans) kind of speech.

In fact, the whole concept of MN being for 'Mums' i.e. women is a joke. MN does not care about the rights of females.

Because if i was a homophobic bigot like gets suggested about us "GC"folk i may have gone to it grudingly, family and all, but I wouldn't have put in one iota of additional effort.

I put myself out of my comfort zone, i presented myself to the world not as my true authentic self but how many sister wanted me look to the world on her wedding day. that made feel very vulnerable and, very wrong, to use another ideologies words.

But I did it to show someone else that they mattered.

Now do any of those actions warrant me getting accused of homophobia.

Was what I did a sign of raging rampant hated of a marginalised othered (not my word these have been used to insult me before) group veering to the more conservative thought processes im being accused of or someone who's kind and tolerant and believes EVERYONE should be able to live as however they choose.

Because if this shows im a bigot well, then there's no hope is there. Were doomed.

I am about 3mm above you. Odd isn't it? That we are all such rabid and consistent liars, maybe clones or socks... or maybe just not at all right wing.

Let me think...

Thankyou for the correction Justme, and good to hear 💐
