'“I saw he didn’t accept my gender because in the workplace we have different cultures, different religions, and he is standing there with two other drivers in the middle, and looking at me in a very serious way, because he didn’t like what he could see in front of him.'

Apparently the complainant is a mind reader Hmm

I wonder if there was some projection going on too.

The compelling of people’s language continues a pace.

Near Miss Incident

Giggles wildly at the double entendre.

Makes it sound like a “Little Miss” character…

🤣😂🤣

I love the sound of Twanky and Twanker as a trans friendly insult 😂

I have added both these to my repertoire.

Jill Scott famously call a german opponent "you f@cking prick" during an international football match.

It is so delicious I wonder if someone was 'avin a larf.

A mile off at the very least 😁

I've been called a wanker many times.

Here's the complainant

Use female specific slurs against trans women to avoid being discriminatory, says tribunal
Needmoresleep · 26/08/2023 19:58

It was Bournemouth vs Spurs today and the crowd were soon chanting "The referee's a wanker", soon followed by "the linesman's a cunt". Decisions really were not going our way, nor was the scoreline.

Could they have arrested the crowd for using a female specific insult to insult a man? Could the linesman have taken the FA to an employment tribunal? Or is it only TW who are entitled to be sensitive.

Sex is a protected characteristic, who can we sue for discrimination for implying 'wanker' is a gendered insult and that women can't wank?

And when are totally legless cases like this going to stop cluttering up the judicial system so other people can actually access justice in a timely fashion?

Wanker is completely gender neutral where I'm from 🤷🏻‍♀️ Also, why have the tribunal even weighed in on gender-appropriate insults when their conclusion was that the 'wanker incident' never happened?

Sounds like totally inappropriate overreach, including the overreach of arbitrarily deciding from on high that 'wanker' is gendered when it clearly is not. Women can wank too. When are judges / tribunals going to be held to account if they do biased crap like this?

Is there anyone we can complain to?

CriticalCondition · 25/08/2023 16:42

I'm only on the first page of that judgment but it's looking like a promising read. A bus was allegedly driven too close to the claimant and it is flagged up in bold to be referred to thereafter as the Near Miss Incident. Grin

😁👏

WANKTRESS might be acceptable for those who wish to girlify the insult thrown at them.

Or we could also use (T)wanktrix or (T)wankette 😁

ArabeIIaScott · 24/08/2023 16:54

Oh, what if the insult that was never given had a silent 'h'?

All this time! And the Paddington Hard Stare that was due to cultural differences might have just been blepharitis or something.

ArabeIIaScott · 24/08/2023 16:53

Chunderface. Arsewipe. Fuckhead. Bawface. Madhawk. Boaby. Fud. Walloper. Walt. Jobby. Glaikit Fanny.

Wankstress. Wankshe. Wankher.

"..he is standing there with two other drivers in the middle, and looking at me in a very serious way, because he didn’t like what he could see in front of him."

Isn't that just a verbose version of "He looked at me funny"?

It is.

But it can be lethal, to be stared at the wrong way.
Sorry, I got that wrong, it can be lethal if you stare the wrong way.
wait, sorry, it’s something to do with the staring and the unspeakable thoughts that are being thought - and not spoken.
and… well, yeah.

I always thought wanker was an equal opportunities kind of insult, but then I’m a forriner.

I think TWs deserve their own words. How about twanker?

After all, I'm sure Widow Twanky must fall under the great trans umbrella.

Person who is living their life pretending to be something they’re not turns out to be an unreliable witness. Heavens!
