please explain what your intended tone was?
Tone policing whilst taking offence at the tone you perceived my post to take....
You couldn't make it up.

Your deflections are not working. Those only show you up as dishonest now.

Since you cannot explain, I think all readers can see quite clearly that you jumped in with what you thought was a great line that fell rather flat and showed your ignorance.

You were wrong. You cannot admit it. You couldn't make that up!

scolded women
Oh give over 😂

So this:

"Is this the "GC" version of " you can't even wish someone Merry Christmas anymore?!" 🙄😁"

Was NOT meant to shame women by making out that they were... what... exaggerating, hyperbolic, hysterical??? What? If I have mistaken it and the tone, please explain what your intended tone was?

Glad that you didn't deny that you were wrong though. That is a step forward.

Oh, I'm not worried but thanks for your concern 👍

Froodwithatowel · 16/08/2023 19:12

Please don't worry, I shan't bother engaging with your posts again.

But good to hear if announcements reflecting biological reality are back.

Going back to where we were before the derail.

No.

My argument is in the post, not what you are translating it as.

Righto!

Either way, you came on and scolded women when you were wrong. Own that at least.

SuperNewMe · 16/08/2023 18:27

Not even sure what you're talking about now, sorry.

Helleofabore · 16/08/2023 18:18

I think everyone saw the way you jumped in there. No need to hide it. You couldn't even be bothered to read what you were commenting on.

We expect it by now. Newyou is not really new at all.

SuperNewMe · 16/08/2023 18:10

The bit you didn’t read in the hurry to berate women

Nice to see the TRAnslato-tron 2000 in action though.

Are you seriously arguing that 'no longer acceptable to do' is in some way different from 'you are not allowed to do it'?

Seriously?

No.

So a London company deciding to use "more inclusive language" ( which is their right to) means you're "not allowed to say it anymore".
🙄
Yes, you still are.

Did someone say "not allowed to say it"?

I saw the post where it was said "no longer acceptable to make an announcement along the lines of..." on public transport but I've not seen anyone say that no one is allowed to say it. Could you please link the post?

Please be very specific. What part of the organisations saying their staff should not be saying it, means they are ‘allowed’ to say it still with no repercussions.

Please be very specific and detail it for all of us reading along. Either you didn’t bother reading the articles or you didn’t comprehend the ‘our staff should not be saying that’ bit. Either way, please clarify as we obviously are missing some inside or extra knowledge that you have.

What a load of rubbish,.I regularly get trains and have recently heard "ladies and gentlemen."
Is this the "GC" version of " you can't even wish someone Merry Christmas anymore?!" 🙄😁

You have been on this board long enough to have heard this before, I am surprised at your pretense to make this out to be ‘fake’. How dismissive of the needs of trans people are you!

London rail firm apologises for 'ladies and gentlemen' welcome after angry LGBT backlash | UK | News | Express.co.uk

LONDON North Eastern Railway (LNER) has been forced to apologise after the conductor greeted customers by saying 'ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls' following a complaint by a non-binary person.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 15/08/2023 15:58

believe it is no longer acceptable to make an announcement that would be along the lines of 'good morning ladies and gentlemen'. Because this will trigger someone
