Will there be a day that a trans article appears in the press and doesnt get posted in aibu?

Should we STFU araiwa, like good girls?

Please

Its not even an aibu

CallYourDadYoureInACult · 14/02/2018 09:59

Maybe when someone who is male has not stepped on women’s rights and opportunities?

Don't open it then, let alone reply, if you are so offended.

But thanks for the bump Grin

When it isn't an article about how a man has taken something designed and reserved for a woman, then maybe it won't appear in AIBU araiwa.

araiwa · 14/02/2018 10:02

It would be hard to win a jail competition if she wasnt in jail.

Hont1986 · 14/02/2018 10:06

YABVU to post yet another trans thread about an issue that will affect literally no-one on this site.

fgs who CARES? Were you really interested and invested in the fucking results of Greenock Jail's Miss Fitness 2018 until you found out that a transwoman won it?

MrPan · 14/02/2018 10:09

Quite the opposite Hont - it's an issue that will/does affect everyone on this site, and in any place in the UK covered by the gender recognition bill as proposed currently, where any man can legally claim to be a woman and take anything designed and reserved for women.

BaldricksTrousers · 14/02/2018 10:11

OP, were you runner up?

Hont1986 · 14/02/2018 10:12

Nope, the results of one Scottish jail's fitness competition affects literally no-one here. If anyone can PM me proof that they have been directly affected by this 'result' then I'll send them a fiver.

I male murderer in a female jail is of no consequence, mrpan?

QueenLaBeefah · 14/02/2018 10:16

He shouldn't be in a women's wing in the first place. He is also fully intact and should definitely not be sharing showers.

TeasndToast · 14/02/2018 10:16

This is ridiculous. While there may be an argument for men who have fully transitioned and have been weakened by hormones, this is a full man!! He has had no treatment whatsoever.
He shouldn’t even be in a female prison, showering cock and balls with naked women because of ‘feelz’.

PositivelyPERF · 14/02/2018 10:16

I wouldn’t have been interested in who won a women’s fitness prize, if it hadn’t been a FUCKING MAN who won it, so thank you for posting this APAB.

So I take it, those that say it doesn’t affect them, don’t give to any charities, other than those campaigning for something that directly affects you. So you don’t give to charities that try to help alleviate hunger, child abuse, animal welfare, etc. After all, these things don’t directly affect you?

I’m actually disgusted that you feel that women in jail should have no rights, but a man can do what’s the fuck he likes.

Bejazzled · 14/02/2018 10:17

Yanbu at all op.
The 29-year-old, who has repeatedly complained about her treatment behind bars, triumphed in disciplines including rowing, weights, sit-ups and press-ups

A source said: “The rest of them shouldn’t have bothered even entering “It was surreal. Everybody knew it wasn’t very fair, but nobody was allowed to say it

A male murderer in a women's prison having a great time seems to me

MrPan · 14/02/2018 10:18

Well, then this is repeated across every discipline and facility available - sports/education/anything publically funded at all/political representation/even the WI, girl guides etc/ hospital care arrangements.

You will need lots of those fivers to secure private arrangements with any sex-based division of services.

BigDeskBob · 14/02/2018 10:18

Sorry mr pan, I don't know why I challenged you, Blush

MrPan · 14/02/2018 10:19

BigDesk - ?? Not seeing where I said it's of no consequence - quite the opposite.

MrPan · 14/02/2018 10:19

H'okay!

noeffingidea · 14/02/2018 10:28

It's not even an AIBU
Everythings an AIBU if it's got AIBU in front of it. Kind of like Jeopardy where you have to put 'what is' in front of the answer.
Yes, of course we're supposed to STFU like good little girls, and move over and let the men take all the prizes whenever they feel like it. Oh and see women's naked bodies whenever they ferl like it of course.

LondonHereICome · 14/02/2018 10:31

I'm sure the women in the prison will be vocal enough about it!

MrPan · 14/02/2018 10:33

It's also graphically illustrative of the madnesses that self i-d would bring.

MasterWu · 14/02/2018 10:35

How do you know who this affects? The rights of women in prison are important to me - why wouldn’t they be - they are one of the most vulnerable groups in society

Yep, they're in prison for their safety right? Such a lovely misunderstood group? How many women prisoners have you actually met?
