Supreme Court ruling.

I don’t particularly care if this gets deleted and I get banned, if you are openly happy about the Supreme Court decision then you are the problem with society today.

Trans men and women are not the problem, they are not the reason for violence against women. However for whatever insane reason you have made them the subject of your ire and will stop at nothing to see them suffer for these perceived slights you think they have committed.

do you idiots not realise this implications this ruling has? Putting hundreds of thousands of people’s lives at risk, severely increasing the mental struggle trans people face before transitioning and increasing any shame they may already be experiencing.

Do you think these rules stop with trans people? They don’t. We aren’t living in the medieval ages where only white men had rights, this is 2025 so why don’t we start acting like it.

I actually cannot express the anger this brings me, to treat a fellow HUMAN BEING this way is beyond me.

Consider that what trans men and women label themselves as and what bathrooms they use is a) not really as deep a subject as you think and b) frankly none of your business.

Perhaps consider going outside and touching some grass.

Um... Ok.

Putting hundreds of thousands of people’s lives at risk

Without hyperbole - can you give info on how this is the case?

Overtheatlantic · 25/04/2025 23:04

Yes you are a human being. But you are not a woman.

Tell it to the judge

BatFeminist · 25/04/2025 23:04

Idiots you say?

friendsonly · 25/04/2025 23:06

I agree that transwomen are not the reason for violence against women.
Men are, but how do we differentiate between a man and a transwoman?

BuffetTheDietSlayer · 25/04/2025 23:07

Get over it.

Maybe it would help if you didn't keep convincing each other that you are in some kind of mortal peril every time you step out the door 🙄

Perhaps consider touching reality

Kardamyli2 · 25/04/2025 23:08

Get over yourself. All the SC said was that transwomen are not women. Unless you are very dim you knew that already.

A man using a toilet for women IS my business

A man using a changing room for women IS my business

Only a man would say otherwise.

GoldenGail · 25/04/2025 23:09

How can you be so deluded? I don’t even find your insults offensive. I’m just sad at how you miss the whole point and see protecting women as being hatred for other human beings

GretaGip · 25/04/2025 23:10

How are hundreds of thousands of peoples lives in danger? Confused

Lifeisapeach · 25/04/2025 23:15

It’s about time the tide turned on all this nonsense. Letting some minority ideology tell us a man isn’t a man !! Just lunacy.

Perhaps it's the way the majority of you speak about transpeople which gives the rest of us that idea. Just a thought. Perhaps try not constantly being rude, condescending, patronising, and trying to moderate what strangers do or don't do with their own bodies, and we won't think this way about you 👌🏻

Pinkrabbitt · 25/04/2025 23:23

@Dobetterplease how does the judgment put trans lives at risk? Do you mean because transwomen have to use the men's toilets and they're worried about male violence? Just like women are worried about male violence and privacy/dignity in their toilets?

But then you also say that toilets aren't a "deep subject" so I'm not sure what you mean or where the threat to trans people is?

And if you're suggesting that trans lives are at risk because hundreds and thousands are going to kill themselves because of the judgment then that's deeply irresponsible as well as untrue.

LovelySG · 25/04/2025 23:24

‘You idiots’.

Women and girls don’t want men in their loos, wards, prisons, refuges and sports - or taking their seats on the board.

We’re concerned with the safety, dignity and rights and women and girls. Not the preferences of a tiny minority of men.

If you don’t like it or understand it, that’s fine. But know it. It’s a fact - biologically and in law - that men are not women. EVEN if they put a dress on, tilt their heads, cart tampax around with them to lend to women (because all women do that, don’t they) and call themselves Sandra.

Only an idiot thinks otherwise.

You are right. Women have rights now too.

Strange that you are so desperate to invade women’s spaces if women are so awful.

@Dobetterplease
Not just the Supreme Court, the European Court of Human Rights know their facts too:

I find it absolutely fascinating that you can't see it from another perspective. I would say the majority of posters are respectful but also, this isn't about what someone does or doesn't do to their own body. It's about women and their rights.

Not quite. This is from the Equality and Human Rights Commission (a British organisation), not the European Court of Human Rights.
