The district council have shared a post about pride at the weekend but it seems Malvern has a resident terf 🤣 If you're on here "Jenny" well done for speaking up (I'm too much of a wuss)

She says she has a wife.
I don’t know if it helps on these threads to jump to all these conclusions or seize on any unflattering suggestion, there’s no obvious reason why another poster on the thread decided she has a husband and they might have just made it up.
James on the other hand is straight up awesome.

It's someone called Natalie who says she is a queer woman married to a straight man.

as for the queer woman who has been married to her straight husband for 15 years 🙄

Liz is certainly getting her arse served up to her. Her replies really are about 10 years too late aren’t they 😄

I think James might be a woman too. In fairness to the “queer” woman, she might be bisexual and just chose to marry a man. I don’t like the term “queer” though, still think of it as a slur.

I doubt she’s bi. She just jumped on the bandwagon and then went for the obligatory grade 1 length blue hair as evidence 🙄

It's very revealing to see which posts are getting likes, and which are getting laughed at, isn't it?

OneGreyScroller · 30/07/2025 12:45

I worked in a very captured company before retirement. Unfortunately all this would do would be used as evidence 'why we still need pride' and they'd double down on it next year

#teamJenny #teamJames 👍

Liz has been programmed and is referring to the manual for arguing TWAW. People have had enough of the ‘you’re unpleasant/uneducated/insert phobia or ist insult here to not let the men in with the women’. It’s so predictable.

Jenny and James, people of East Kent need your help

I’m embarrassed for them after SP in the news this week

another hospital creating a toxic environment. If you don’t sign then you will be labelled transphobic and a witch hunt started.

I have a lesbian friend called Dot, who around this time last year retired to a town on the Welsh border. Her new neighbour on the right was a man who, with her gaydar, she immediately recognised as a camp gay man.

He seemed to spend a lot of time with a woman who lived down the street. This woman walked her dogs on rainbow leads and wore a rainbow lapel badge. Dot assumed they were LGB friends. Bumping into the woman wearing her rainbow badge one day, Dot came out with it and said 'Would I be right in assuming you're a lesbian? I am too.'

'No,' said the neighbour, 'but I'm an ally of the LGBTQ+ community.' A few months after that, the apparently LGB neighbours announced they were going to get married and this spring they tied the knot and moved in together.

On the weekend of the local Pride event (which Dot had no intention of attending because she's a proud terf) there was a knock at the door. Her newly-married neighbours were on the doorstep, both dressed in rainbow-patterned items, including rainbow socks, a rainbow waistcoat and a rainbow kimono. They'd called round to ask if she, as a lesbian, owned a Pride flag or a Progress flag they could borrow because they were marching in the Pride parade. Dot explained that she didn't. They were very surprised that she didn't own anything rainbow-patterned.

'But what are you doing walking in the Pride parade?' Dot asked. 'You're straight. Pride is supposed to be for LGB people.'

'We love Pride and we support LGBTQ+ people,' they said. 'Surely there's nothing wrong with that? Most of the people who turn out for Pride are straight people. It would be a very small parade if it was only you lot.'

And people wonder why the LGB community feels so colonised.

I identify her as an attention seeking heterosexual.

People keep getting confused (of course deliberately) and thinking we are against transmen in women's spaces. I see it all the time and it frustrates me so much! How many people do not get what we fight for simply because they don't know what the jargon means!

Liz does come across as a woman. Quite respectful albeit wrong on the facts. Jenny and James are very well informed. I know an ex Wren ie Women's Royal Naval Service , who is GC. I wonder....but fair play for keeping an opaque profile if it is her.

notevencharging · 30/07/2025 11:35

I reckon James is definitely a MNer.

Pretty sure Liz is a woman.

JulesJules · 30/07/2025 11:21

Oh dear, I'm embarrassed for Liz. Perhaps she could do a bit more googling. Go Jenny and James!

I think you might have called it!

Lesbian is "just a word" says Liz. Who identifies as a lesbian.
Words have meanings, Liz!

notevencharging · 30/07/2025 11:01

I’m hoping some more people will join in. Wish I had the guts (although to be fair I don’t think Jenny is identifiable and James has a very non descript profile)
