Do some trans people get correct pronouns and others not?

How does that get decided

I suspect the lunchtime adjournment is over and we shall have to wait until court rises again.

I'm sure you're correct

It couldn't possibly be that some posters get a pass because reasons.

I'm convinced the deletions must actually increase the amount of people who read threads containing a certain person in real time!

You learn you have to read at the time rather than aiming to catch up later!

@SinnerBoy - RMW has indeed had genital surgery, according to the blog written about it.

I was also puzzled about RMW (although I noticed last night that there was no mention of the 'Moira', it was just plain old Robin White) popping up in the north east of England for this event.

Perhaps I'll be charitable and assume Robin had been appearing in court in the area and so just moseyed on along to the TV studio to see what was going on.

Though, come to think of it, Robin did ask a very broad question - why should the LGBTQ+ people vote for the Conservatives. As though the alphabet people all have the same interests and goals in life, which they clearly don't any more than the rest of us. Could it be the influence, yet again, of that pesky 'Umbrella'?

There's a satisfying irony to this.

Transactactivists deliberately hitched their wagon to the LGB train. They hide behind the LGB in order to legitimise their position by using LGB cred.

There's something rather wonderful about Sunak taking them at their word, to the extent where they have to hurriedly unhitch themselves, lest they actually get the obscurity they wanted.

😁

Why so many deletions on this thread?

My comment was asking a valid question.

Well … you know somebody upthread warned about what happens with The Candyman … it possibly just happened.

Waiting for AdamRyan's repeated use of a sex based pronoun to be deleted...

Thanks for the warning @lifeturnsonadime

I'll just have to be content with giggling immaturely about the fact that posts citing material reality get deleted while the comment "bulldog chewing a wasp" stays

I don't think that's true actually. RMW wrote a blog about it.

Ah, my apologies Robin, if you're reading; I've obviously confused you with somebody else.

Gosh are MNetters being harassed for their belief in sex as a material reality? Thought that wasn't legal, as has been decided now by more than one judge. 🤔

Plus RMW has been very open about their lack of GRC so does not have the legal fiction of sex change that applies with said certificate and therefore their Birth Certificate is also unchanged.

Think about who might be watching and reporting.

Being a Barrister, MN will be ultra cautious.

I’m not sure a case could be made?

Perhaps it hasn’t been tested yet as Forstater was slightly different
