The thing that never happens!!!

This is so fucking grim. That poor, poor child.

Prosecutors charged her Monday under the name William Kelso Flournoy IV, accusing her of first-degree rape of a child and sexual exploitation of a minor.

Yeah, that typical women's crime.

So the victim of this monster was the child of a friend who asked the couple to move in to help provide childcare.

The monster also worked at a facility for transient children. It hasn't been established that there were victims at their place of work.

So we can't really say that they used their gender identity to access their victim from what we know about their known crimes. We don't even know that they got the job after they started to identify as a woman. We can speculate that if they did abuse children at work, their identity as a woman may have made them appear safer.

His. Not they or their. His. He. A man.

These are not women's crimes.

Trusted by who? The friends/parents?

Again, not sure why my reply was hidden. I just said I am using "they/them" more because I don't want to acknowledge their personhood than any respect for gender identity.

I was taught about Myra Hindley from a young age, and not to believe that the presence of a woman meant you were any safer, and it's important to teach our children that stranger danger doesn't just mean men.

You shouldn’t teach stranger danger, you should teach about tricky adults

Not a stranger though, was he?
IMO it's harmful to teach children to be frightened of all adults - and needlessly so.

What they need to learn are to recognise patterns of behaviour, not to be wrongly told that all adults are equally likely to harm them.

And while they are too young to be able to recognise such patterns themselves, or to act on them, the adults around them need to do it for them - without risking losing their jobs for what until recently was basic safeguarding. Men pretending to be women used to be a red flag in sex crime investigations - it probably needs to become so again.

It's critical for child safeguarding and facilitating child reporting that we don't use terms like 'monster' or use obfuscating language. Stick to plain English. Safe adults model safe behaviours.

Are there children here?

Thanks Lady, that poor baby and that evil man. And will he now be sent to a women’s prison?

AI says that Florida puts men in men's prisons, he may also find his access to clothing is restricted.

Oooh have we got a new gender? I mean, NS coined “rapist gender” when she was desperate not to concede the male rapist she’d put in a female prison was in fair not the stunning and brave woman he claimed to be, and you seem to be trying for “monster gender”. Just own it. This person was a TIM.

But that’s putting him in the same gender category as NB people. Slightly harsh towards NB people.

What? You replied to my post yesterday admitting that you don't actually know if their idnetity as a trans woman had any bearing on the friend trusting them and then now you appear to have forgotten that entire interaction.

Do you give a shit about NB people?

This was your reply yesterday.

That's a different poster, no?

Yes. I have quite a few NB friends. You said you were calling someone they=them as you didn’t want to acknowledge his personhood. So if by calling someone they/them you are saying you refuse to acknowledge he is a person, you would be saying all NB people are also not people. That’s not on

Ummm, that wasn’t me. Sorry buddy. No wonder you were saying I was following you and harassing you. If you’re getting me mixed up with other posters that would explain it.

I also call dogs and rabbits and rhinos "they".

Who said anything about harassment..are you making things up?
