Just that really.... inspired by the recent sticker campaign.... "Women can't have penises" and "Some women have penises"....

Simple question - simple answer.

Me - Yes, I believe women can't have penises.

No ladycock at all, their all men dressed as women. Don't hear things such as mangina do you or gentleminge.

Aeroflotgirl · 29/08/2018 14:36

doh they are not their.

AnEPleaseBob · 29/08/2018 14:37

I speak for myself AnEPleaseBob and I was offended by the first part. As for You will one day though it's threatening. Think seriously about your comments and the effects it may have on others

in what way is it threatening? Go, on explain it, if you're so sure.

It was the ones with breasts and penises posting porno images of themselves that most bothered me.

Aeroflotgirl · 29/08/2018 14:45

Oh god that is disgusting YetAnother, I don't think you see many Transmen posting pictures of their manginas, or gentleclits. Its coming from the men.

YetAnotherSpartacus · 29/08/2018 15:00

Yes. I'm actually most disgusted at the medical profession that must know ths is happening and yet facilitates it.

tillytop · 29/08/2018 15:05

AnEPleaseBob, You explain what you meant by You will one day though. You said it!

I ghost write erotica. Ladycock, girlidick etc are common requests. Worryingly, a common trope of this genre is 'tricking' unwitting men and women into interacting with ladydicks. No-one has ever asked me to write erotica about transmen.

What baffles me about the medical profession is why this is allowed? I have deep sympathy for the handful of people suffering genuine gender dysphoria but I don't understand why medical transitioning is seen as the cure above therapy. The dysphoric man who genuinely believed his leg was not his and he should have been born with only one leg wasn't allowed to chop his leg off. People with dysphoria around their image aren't given cosmetic surgery on the NHS, ditto anorexics, who often suffer from body dysmorphia, we don't refer them for liposuction and agree they are indeed fat. Why is gender dysphoria treated differently?

AnEPleaseBob, You explain what you meant by You will one day though. You said it!

No. You decided what it meant and ranted on at me rather offensively. So you tell us all what was so threatening about it. I guarantee you got it wrong but go on, share. You must very sure of yourself to have been so fucking rude to me based on your interpretation of what it meant. You called me as threatening and obnoxious as TRA's, so either explain why you think so or apologise for your comments.

tillytop · 29/08/2018 15:20

AnEPleaseBob you are an embarrassment. Go away!

AnEPleaseBob · 29/08/2018 15:27

No, I won't.
Are you saying you have no idea what that comment meant and were vile and offensive for no reason? Or can you not explain what you thought it said? You were very vocal and rude about a comment you can't explain.

RatRolyPoly · 29/08/2018 15:34

To be fair to tilly, AnE, I did read that as a bit threatening too. Like, "if you don't know how bad it is for a cock to be shoved somewhere it isn't wanted, you will one day!" Like you're going to make sure they know what that's like... I mean, perhaps that isn't what you meant... but it is an understandable interpretation.

Now I'm sure that wasn't what you meant from how defensive you're being about it, as you would be if that was totally not your intention, but tilly's not being nuts for her reading of it. It totally could be read that way.

RatRolyPoly · 29/08/2018 15:35

Aaaaand I'm out, hopefully on the back of having tried to smooth things out and not having lobbed a grenade into a warzone!

AnEPleaseBob · 29/08/2018 15:38

Well it wasn't, and she is too embarrassed to realise how wrong she got it and apologise.

You will one day means that everyone will care about this shit one day because its only going to get worse and affect more and more people. Anyone confused by that could have asked rather than be offensive in response.

AnEPleaseBob · 29/08/2018 15:39

but tilly's not being nuts for her reading of it. It totally could be read that way

She is for being so vile about it, when she read it wrong Hmm

tillytop · 29/08/2018 15:39

AnEPleasebob, You appear to have something like an oppositional disorder. I empathise but refuse to engage further.

Aaand my bingo card is completed by someone diagnosing a psychological disorder in someone they've never met, based on a few online comments.

tillytop · 29/08/2018 15:53

Thank-you Rat

Women don't have penises.

Woman is an adult female human.

Like sow is an adult female pig and mare is an adult female horse.

No, I appear to have confused you and now like a child you are hitting out in your own embarassment at having been both wrong and rude.
You'd feel better if you apologised. Or left the talking to the grown ups.

SandraTheBee · 29/08/2018 16:46

Tilly I have re read the comment and I think you have completely misunderstood it.

Rufustheyawningreindeer · 29/08/2018 16:48

I agree sandra

I am struggling to see that AnE is making any sort of threat

SandraTheBee · 29/08/2018 16:50

no, there was no threat.

BertrandRussell · 29/08/2018 16:50

Yes, Tilly has completely misunderstood the comment. However, I assume that will not stop it being used elsewhere as.......evidence.
