To feel sickened that this man is being referred to in this way (WARNING UPSETTING CONTENT)

This man raped a three month old baby boy to the point where the baby needed corrective surgery.

He is now in a women’s prison in Canada where he has beaten up a female inmate.

THIS is where self ID leads. Men like this being incarcerated with women and their crimes being counted as female.

Go on, Mumsnet, delete me for deliberately misgendering a male baby rapist.

THIS.IS.A.MAN.

Perhaps this story will illustrate why feminists are so up in arms about self ID.

I would love to see even the staunchest anti-women transactivist tell me that this person is a woman and that they belong in a women’s prison.

aren’t more men in prison partially because they get harsher sentences than women for the same crime?

No. It's because they are massively, hugely more violent than women. An overwhelmingly statistical truth that is under threat from those like Boo who want to say that a male child rapist is female.

IHATEPeppaPig · 18/07/2018 08:30

@Booboobooboo84 I have only just read your update and if you received a message such as that then that is utterly reprehensible- not deserved for disagreeing no matter how offensive an opinion is.

I hope you're okay?

Coconutcreampie · 18/07/2018 08:31

I simply cannot get my head around how there can be any arguments that having a sex change actually makes you a woman. Surely its entirely down to your dna. If your chromosomes are xx you are a woman, if you are xy you are a man. Nothing changes your chromosomes. If a man wants to look like a woman and be reffered to as a woman then fine to an extent I will respect her wishes but they will never be a true woman. Same as if I had horns implanted in my head and told everyone to call me a goat, my dna still makes me a human, I will never be an actual goat.

jainaproudm · 18/07/2018 08:32

This person is a disgusting human being who should rot in jail for the rest of their life. No disagreements there. But they would be a disgusting human being whether they were female or male, surely? 'How dare you refer to this baby rapist as a woman. This is a sick, violent MAN' - there is an odd vibe about this, do you believe that women are above this kind of behaviour? Because they're not.

Daddynosharing · 18/07/2018 08:34

@slightaggrandising I used two different words, in two different contexts. You querying it suggests you don’t understand the difference.

I think ultimately I don’t believe being transgender is easy and undergoing operations isn’t going to be a decision taken lightly so I am simply wondering how many people would actually do it ‘maliciously’. as long as we have processes in place so e.g. a man can’t just self ID to end up in a women’s prison, which isn’t the case here is it? The articles refers to them having had full reassignment surgery following referral by a qualified health professional.

This is obviously not the place for that discussion though so I will leave this thread now.

Rufustheyawningreindeer · 18/07/2018 08:34

Sorry havnt read the whole thread yet, but things are occurring to me as i read

Firstly OP YANBU

The move to calling such crimes female crimes in the statistics is going to end badly, and will fuel the general bullshit claims of 'women are the same' when obviously they are not

Women as a group are weaker than men as a group...whether they are smaller or not

I see that there is also a poster (who shall remain nameless) having a pop at posters for not mentioning the victim of the crime. Interesting to note that their first , obviously hypocritical, post went straight to 'women do it too...'

Obviously most posters thoughts will be with the baby and thir family

WichBitchHarpyTerfThatsMe · 18/07/2018 08:39

Men aren't bigger or stronger than women, women are as bad, male violence is down to childhood, we are bitches . . . well another delightful morning on MN.

Having your penis and testicles removed, having breast implants and taking hormones does not make you a woman. It makes you a surgically and hormonally treated man.

Boo if you have received threats you must inform MN, it isn't right. However, as you feel sufficiently scared by written threats (which you are fully entitled to feel) to call the police can you imagine what it feels like to be locked up with a convicted violent and sexual offender who is probably bigger and stronger than you?

This is being discussed on LBC

BeyondRadicalisationPortal · 18/07/2018 08:41

Taking trans out of it for a sec, doesn't research show that castration (whether chemical or operative) isn't sufficient to stop sex offenders offending? They just find another way to harm people?

Appears there is a bit of a disconnect here that once someone is viewed "as a woman" they are safe if they are post-op. When the facts don't actually agree. Does anyone know the research I'm on about?

Also parallel that with the British prison psychologists who said that men will use self ID to get "an easier ride" in a women's prison.

FermatsTheorem · 18/07/2018 08:55

jaina there are women who commit violent sex offences and murder (incidentally, the man being discussed on this thread also admitted to murder, committed when he was 11 years old) - Myra Hindley and Rosemary West spring to mind.

However, they are so rare that the female estate in the UK at any rate is not equipped to cope with them - so they tend to be held in special wings in men's maximum security prisons. What's at issue here is whether it is right to put violent male sex offenders into women's prisons where the vast majority of the prisoners have not committed violent offences (mostly in for drugs offences, handling stolen goods, and most worryingly, non-payment of fines for e.g. not paying TV licences). These women have a statistically far greater likelihood of having been the victims of child sexual abuse or domestic violence than the population at large. They may have done things society deems deserving of imprisonment, but they are also for the most part very vulnerable individuals. The question is whether it is morally right that they should have to serve their prison time in the company of violent, sexually abusive men.

www.thesun.co.uk/news/6804433/transgender-lag-sexually-abused-four-female-prisoners-days-after-arriving-at-west-yorkshire-jail/ This case has also been in the news - four women prisoners sexually assaulted within a matter of days by a transgender sex offender transferred to the women's estate.

CantankerousCamel · 18/07/2018 08:55

I know from first hand experience than in a prison, women are much more likely to stick with verbal abuse and men are very quick to jump to violence.

Men are VERY different creatures to women, especially when they’re violent criminals. Men should NEVER, castrations or no, be permitted to enter a women’s prison. EVER

Timeisslippingaway · 18/07/2018 08:57

boo
The point is this MAN committed a disgusting, horrendous crime and should have been stripped of his human rights and left to rot in a cell in a MALE prison.
Your posts are ridiculous, people like you have enabled this MAN to get off very lightly.

Prawnofthepatriarchy · 18/07/2018 09:01

You bitches says all I need to know about you, Booboobooboo84. Then we get women blamed for male violence and we're told a baby rapist is a woman on the rapist's say so.

If a man loses his penis in an accident he doesn't become a woman, you know. A woman does not equal a castrated man, FFS.

Oh and your claim women are not smaller and weaker than men. That’s just what we are raised to believe is piffle.

For example, in any sport where sheer physical strength matters (i.e nearly all of them) the top woman in the world would trail hundreds of places behind the male world champion. Only MRAs deny this.

Your use of "raised" and "perp" suggests you're posting from overseas. Curious as to where.

I’m utterly offensive and yet I’m on the to the police reporting 2 posters on this page for am-in me and saying deserves to be raped?

It this is true you need to get on to MNHQ as it would be treated very seriously indeed. But you'll forgive me if I don't set off the fire alarm.

GenderApostate · 18/07/2018 09:02

Boo - why haven’t you named the people on MN who have allegedly sent you rape threats?

Bowlofbabelfish · 18/07/2018 09:03

I’m utterly offensive and yet I’m on the to the police reporting 2 posters on this page for am-in me and saying deserves to be raped?

If that has happened please contact MNHQ - they will take it very seriously.

I’d be grateful if you answered my question - do you believe humans can change sex?

unicornchaser · 18/07/2018 09:04

A rapist is a rapist regardless of what gender/sex they are.

This one is A MAN.
A man Pretending to be a woman but still a man.
Women are just as capable of rape as men but this one is not a woman.

He should have been trialled as a man and shipped off to a private island with all the rest of the disgusting beasts (men and women) who rape children. Or at the very least left to rot in a jail with other men.

Timeisslippingaway · 18/07/2018 09:05

Because it's very likely not true.

NameChangedAgain18 · 18/07/2018 09:08

Would you tell a rape victim that they were raped by a woman if that was how the perp identified?

I’d like to know Boo’s answer to this. Which side are you on, that of the person who knows that they were raped by a man, or of the rapist who says they are a woman? Should the victim have to refer to their rapist as “she” when the case goes to court?

Therewearethen1 · 18/07/2018 09:10

My husband is an officer in a prison for sex offenders/vulnerable people. There's at least 100 in there for raping or abusing young children, and that's in one male prison out of 8 specifically for male sex offenders. Many other male prisons have wings housing hundreds of "vulnerable prisoners" too. Of course fewer women commit these crimes. We are biologically different from men and to suggest otherwise is bullshit.

princesstiasmum · 18/07/2018 09:11

Agree with op, i am sick of hearing about thios trans thing,it seems to have become a trend
