If you like -

  1. fashion
  2. make up
  3. Love Island
  4. going out for coffee in the morning

Then don’t worry about your chromosomes or whether you’ve got a vagina, that’s what it takes to be a typical woman according to IW’s latest X post!

But don’t they claim being a TW isn’t about gender stereotypes?

If India's a woman he should be prepared to be judged on his looks , as all women are.
On that basis,I'd like to point out that India is looking as rough as a badger's arse in that video.
Let that penetrate.

I’m not a woman then. Mind you my brother used say I was the brother he never had (whatever than means) 😂

Dontcallmescarface · 20/07/2025 18:29

Well I've no interest in fashion
Don't wear make-up
Never watched Love Island
Don't go out for coffee in the morning with friends
Still a woman though.

If ever there was proof that it's all about the stereotypes with him then that's it.

17y olds like Love Island. He's a 60y old bloke. Truly pathetic.

I like the coffee bit, only.

Brainworm · 20/07/2025 18:27

‘Nil point’ for me - who cares. Im a woman whether I like it or not, whether others like it or not, and independent of any possible variable considered. Like every woman on earth and unlike IW.

What is wrong with him?!

I can't imagine genuine decent trans people like him? He gives the whole 'movement' a bad name.

Watch love fucking island?! How old is he, 58? Yeah that sounds normal. A late middle aged man sitting in his negligee watch love island. Very feminine.

He's 60 later this year

What do you think makes him not a genuine transperson?

Bigearringsbigsmile · 20/07/2025 18:25

So those of us who absolutely no interest in fashion, make up or love island aren't women? 🤣
Right then.....
As a man, xan anyone explain to me why I have been bleeding every month for 40 bloody years?

Ridicule mostly from what I’ve seen so far.

@KassandraOfSparta we need to start our own movement, apart from coffee I have NO interest in any of the list, worse still I prefer beer. Thank Heavens my poor DM isn't here to see this 😂

A bit like Eleanor Rigby, only in her case it was a face- Eleanor Rigby [a] had a cervix and [b] kept it where it belonged😄

I'm 25% woman then, and I used to be 0% woman until 2023.

There’s nothing more manly than a man sitting around opining as to why & how he’s actually a woman.

Women don’t need a to do list of how to woman properly. I could call myself Keith, wear a bikini top & y-fronts, breastfeed at the same time as watching Andrew Tate videos & punching the air. Whatever guff I believed or said about myself I’d still always be a woman.

Willoughby is a failed man (yet still not a woman).

100% - nothing screams male entitlement more than mansplaining how to be a ‘proper’ woman and claiming to be a better woman for adhering to ludicrous outdated stereotypes.

I have no interest in fashion
I do not own or use makeup
I cannot abide Love Island or any kind of reality show
I dislike coffe (though am happy to meet up with friends for wine or beer)
I do not define womanhood through such lame stereotypes and there are plenty of male people who like these 4 things, as is their right. Doesn't make any of them womanly.

To be a woman you need to
(A) be human
(B) be born female
(C) survive past puberty

There are no requirement for taste in clothes, personal body decoration or hair, appreciation for any kind or art or cultural thing, or any other activity, needed to qualify for being a woman.

No male person can become a woman by any means whatsoever. They are entirely at liberty to perform feminity stereotypes if that's what they enjoy, it's good they have that freedom, that will not make them a woman.

Thing is somedays I wear make up and dresses, other days I chuck on leggings a T-shirt and trainers.

Some mornings I pop out for a coffee with friends, others I can barely be arsed to get dressed and leave the sofa.

Sometimes I watch a chick flick, others I watch football.

Sometimes I like a Pina Colada with sparklers and a paper umbrella, other days I fancy a nice glass of wine now and again I swig lager straight out the bottle.

Because women are not stereotypes who behave in a certain way every single day of our lives.

Regardless of what I wear, what I watch on tv and what I spend my life doing, I am something IW will never be - a biological woman

I scored 3 out of 4, I'm more woman than I thought 😉

Seriously though, IW is one absolutely vile twat of a man 🤢

ArabellaScott · 20/07/2025 18:04

When womanhood can encompass so many expansive and wonderful things, when girls and women are capable of endless possibilities, when we can carry and nurture life, we can be so strong and tenacious and brave, and we can finally live free of so much that has historically held women back - to reduce it to this trite, tedious, petty bullshit is depressing. What a dullard.

I think he should apply to take part in Love Island. It would be water cooler TV.

unsync · 20/07/2025 18:02

Men just can't help mansplaining can they? Talk about conforming to stereotype. 🙄

Ponderingwindow · 20/07/2025 17:57

If I become the kind of woman who enjoys fashion and Love Island I want someone to give me a CT-scan to figure out what has gone wrong. It’s the antithesis of my personality.

I’ll just keep sitting on the sofa with my cramps, passing damn clots, because perimenopause is no fun.

Ha! Snap on the perimenopause and cramps 👊 Can I please identify out of this bit of womanhood?

ChaToilLeam · 20/07/2025 18:00

Another one here who just isn't womaning properly according to IW. Hoever, I'm a woman and he's not, so still ahead despite my lack of interest in Love Island.
