Mumsnet Obsession With Penises

My controversial opinion is that most of the Mums who obsess here over penises, uteruses and chromosomes, would pick more important and interesting topics if their own child was trans.

How do you know you're not trans?

I'm sorry if anyone treats you as a social outcast, the subject of scorn, for being "abnormal". No one deserves that.

I remember them being in sandwiches courtesy of the delight that is coronation chicken! And in the sweet curry sauce at the chippy.

I have encountered curry sauce at the chippy, but I still say the proper Norn Iron version is chips with melted cheese and thousand island.

"Sultanas" in curry was definitely a thing my children think I'm lying because why would anyone do that!

@Keeptoiletssafe over one per day in schools is horrifying.

It truly is isn't it. Slight derail but when they were planning on banning phones from schools completely this stat was the one that came to mind.

How would they call for help? It's not like every girl feels comfortable walking up to a teacher and being like "so, I just got raped by this boy".

Anyway I'm glad it hasn't taken effect.

But let's be real there are plenty of schools that do their utmost to accomodate trans students against parents wishes without considering the increase in risk that they put female students in, all because of feelings and vibes.

So you are going to give us a blow by blow account about the difference between a man's penis and a transwomans penis then?

Prey tell what makes the transwoman penis so much safer than the man penis?

That's like me saying that mums who obsess over trans would pick more important and interesting topics if their child had a difference in chromosomes. Important and interesting is subjective, isn't it, so what's your point?

Show quote history

I'm pretty sure that when the trans trend is over, women on Mumsnet will move on to worrying about whatever new danger their kids have found. God only knows what that will be. Hopefully we won't be looking back wistfully at the days they only wanted to cut their sex organs off.

I don't have stats - I'm not sure they exist - but I do think sec workers can be taken into account, UK or anywhere else.

You don't have any stats because they don't exist, OP.

FFS OP.

My child would be trans if he'd been exposed to trusted adults who pushed gender ideology on him. Instead he was allowed to be non-conforming and is now happy, possibly gay and healthy.

I grew up in the 80's; had my bum fondled on a staircase aged 7; was flashed at, cat called and had 'whore' shouted at me as a frightened teen...by men. I was terrified walking home from the bus stop - I used to take my shoes off and run. I once had a lesbian try to pick me up on the tube (so women can be invasive abusive dicks too but that's another point). You're all directing your vitriol at trans women when since the beginning of time it is men hurting women, not trans women hurting women.

Yeah I know you'll all scream "but trans women are MEN" but even if that's the case, why centre your fury around them and not, er, actual man-identifying MEN. Oh and by the way that rapist who pretended to be trans and raped women in a prison: not trans. A man. A fucking deceitful, violent, perverted sex offending man in a dress. Get it right.

You talk so fondly about your husbands' penises yet if a trans woman has one, it's the enemy. At heart, this is all rage and hatred against people who are not "normal" and don't look or identify how you'd prefer them to look and identify. Did you know that in 19th century South Africa black people were termed "non human?". Substitute "trans" for "black" and "not women" for "not human" and then see how your hatred is working for you.

I'm sorry for all the abuse you've experienced. It's shit.

99% of sexual assault is perpetrated by males. Their 'gender identity' makes absolutely no difference.

Transwomen are men. That's the definition of a transwoman - a man, pretending to be a woman.

Just a PSA for our current wave of visitors from Reddit and/or whatever othef TRA spaces you’ve made for yourselves

we’ve been doing this longer than you have and you’ll get bored long before we do. We’re used to dealing with tantruming toddlers yes even the non mums like me

so you keep on trundling over; you're persuading no one and we’re not going anywhere because every nonsense thread, every foot stamping incoherent ramble generated by AI you post does our job for us

Summer holidays, innit. Brace yourself, Brenda. They'll be coming, thick, and fast.

Keeptoiletssafe · 29/06/2025 22:24

I have stats for girls raped in schools (over 1 per school day) and that’s got to be in places that are private which is limited mostly to cupboards and enclosed toilets I think.
I have recent stats on numbers in certain counties that do state what attacks happen in public toilets. There’s no central database.

However, I have campaigned for stats to show exactly what toilets women are being raped in. From my analysis it appears to be enclosed toilets - unisex designs. Private cubicles/toilet rooms favour the perpetrator as there are no witnesses.
