Are equality laws clear on sex and gender expression at work? Kids Toy Shop AGP

I'm not suggesting that sexual fetishes don't exist rather you can't assume someone has one by just looking at them & if you are that's about self reflection.

You must be new around these parts, that word doesn’t work on here.

Utter bollocks. A man wearing fake plastic tits to work in a children’s toy shop is not something that should be swept under the carpet. It’s wrong and pretending it’s just a bit weird like fictional aunty Jane is also wrong. Pretending that sexualised behaviour is not sexual is the reason that some children end up being the victims of abuse.

It wouldn't matter if they did wear it work. The point is its not necessarily a fetish but rather an expression of inner masculinity that they want to embrace.

People who interpret everything as a sexual fetish often struggle with hyper-sexualization and projection. In other words this might be more about your own inner 'demons' that what the facts are.

As Em likes context, here is Kayla Lemieux (Canadian teacher) pictured in school with his rubber boobs and about town without them. I personally think the photo in the school shows unprofessional attire.

They’re not wearing strap on dildos at work though.

I don’t think the issue is that children will view it as sexual. It’s the motivation of that person to wear enormous fake breasts.

Oh and if a butch woman went to work in a children’s toy shop with a pair of socks shoved down the front of her trousers to mimic a dick that would also be weird and wildly inappropriate.

Yes, some women may use padding or other aids, but most aren’t aiming for enormous breasts like the ‘trans woman’ shop worker.

Why would that person need boobs that big? What’s wrong with a bit of modesty and not shocking people?

Sorry, Boys don't Cry. And lots of lesbians use strap on dildos so don't pretend this is a male centric thing.

What's creepy is the assumption that children will view such an image as sexual when the truth is they might just find it 'weird' just like aunty jane is for wearing a three piece suit & tie to work 'like daddy'.

And if they do find it weird how hard is to to explain that people like animals differ? That diversity is part of nature? Parents modelling sexualising the world with their 'fetishist' policing is part of the reason children are sexualised too early.

Big Boys Don’t Cry or Boys Don’t Cry?

BTW, butch women are not transmen and don’t tend to want to pretend they have a dick.

Again though, the mental gymnastics on display (on a parenting site no less) to justify why there’s nothing out of the ordinary for a bloke to wear fake plastic tits at work in a children’s toy shop is a sight to behold.

There's this thing called 'chicken fillets' also know as 'false advertising' many women are fond of.

In any case, implants are 'fake'.

Lots of butch women sneak a rolled sock in their undies. Ever seen the movie 'Big Boys Don't Cry' thats a true story?

Not your name. The name of the shop worker in the original post.

There is a significant difference between implants and removable fake breasts. Do you really think a biological woman would wear fake breasts to work?

No. She's just concerned that a kid's toy shop employee is displaying his sexual fetish at work. Where there are children.

Lots of women get 'huge' implants as an expression of their feminine inclinations. No different.

edit: the name alone is a huge red flag

As in a play on Emily In Paris? You may need to step away from the keyboard for a break.

Seriously, when have you ever seen or heard of a woman wearing 'enormous fake breasts'? Yes, women get surgical breast enlargements, but it is not a 'red flag' and is in no way equivalent to a biological male wearing enormous fake plastic boobs as a sexual fetish.

Every woman I know with naturally huge breasts hates them. Several have had reductions.

if he were wearing normal sized fakes I could see it as a part of a genuine struggle with gender identity. But huge falsies? Fetish

A woman with enormous fake breasts would beva red flag, too.

Huge fake breasts is not trans expression

edit: the name alone is a huge red flag

FFS …..I’ve seen it all. Comparing short hair, jeans and t-shirts with fake plastic tits.

Probably….no doubt the reply would involve hand wringing and bollocks about the most marginalised minority.

But how do you know whether it's a fetish or not? Seems that you are making the false assumption that trans expression = fetish.

Is it a 'fetish' for butch women to express 'man face'?

What's inconsistent & frankly sexist about gender critical views is they assert expressing gender non conformity is perfectly acceptable within one's sex so trans identities are illegitimate ….except when it comes to men.

Assuming this is true, it sounds inappropriate and creepy, and is giving transsexuals a bad reputation. If it would be inappropriate for a biological woman to wear, it’s not appropriate for that person, especially around children.

Dont be so ridiculous. A woman having large breasts is not the same as a transvestite man bringing his fetish to work in a toy shop.

So what?
