Well, we could just sit back and let them get on with it. In 5/10 years we’ll see those young people (with their ‘adapted’ bodies, huge education debts and Brexit) and say ‘I told you so but you thought you were so woke and didn’t listen to the middle aged women who have lived experience’ and shrug.

But like so many of you, I’m not prepared to go down without a fight. I’m just not prepared to let young people down like that.

Thank GOD for women with brains and hearts.

Identify as a man

I reckon that might do it....

Sadly

I’m not a god believer. I don’t know why I emphasised it. Grin

spannablue · 10/11/2018 18:51

More transphobia.

Idontbelieveinthemoon · 10/11/2018 18:52

I think the thing that scares me most is that crime statistics will be altered if the GRA goes ahead simply because people with penises who declare themselves women can claim to be women, be housed in women's prisons and have their crimes noted as women's crimes. In what world is that acceptable?

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 10/11/2018 18:53

So we should just be Oak with people with penises who rape women yet claim to be women? Or people with penises trying to guilt trip lesbians into PIV sex, @spannablue?

Sorry - not going to happen.

The penis is a male sex organ. Biological fact.

AtrociousCircumstance · 10/11/2018 18:53

YANBU.

Fuck this shit.

People with penises are male. There are no female penises.

It is Orwellian unthink to say you can choose your gender.

We all have to right to be authentic about who we are, our histories, how we want to express ourselves and our identity, how we want to look and behave...being male or female shouldn’t inhibit or oppress any of that - but that can never include forcing others to lie and collude for you, support whatever bit of make-believe you want at a given time.

There is a biological reality to the oppression of women.

Sometime I feel like the trans trend is a backlash against #metoo.

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 10/11/2018 18:54

Oh - and I am not phobic about this issue - I am fucking furious at trans activists trying to erase women!

Prawnofthepatriarchy · 10/11/2018 18:54

It's telling that to give examples of female sex killers, JAPAB had to hark back to Rose West (convicted 1995) and Myra Hindley (convicted 1966). Women like this are vanishingly rare. Men who rape and murder are sadly not rare enough.

I can think of quite a number off the top of my head. And of course Hindley and West were not alone. They offended in tandem with their male partners.

Male and female criminals offend in dramatically different ways. Very few women commit violent offences. There are only 120 women in prison for sex offences, compared to 14,000 men. That's fewer than one women for every hundred men.

Men are very much more dangerous as a group than women, and transition doesn't change that, as demonstrated by the number of transwomen in prison for sex and violent crime.

Of course women aren't men. Of course women don't have penises. YADNBU, OP.

lassupthebrew · 10/11/2018 18:55

But the 5000 was predicted by doctors and has proven correct, as established by the numbers over 15 years who have applied.

The only reason there is such a huge push to change the law is because the others who are excluded above that level cannot or will not go through the gatekeeping in place to try to qualify under the rules set up. Because they would fail the assessment process.

Whatever we do the answer surely is not to say that the law is failing because the gatekeeping is apparently doing too good a job.

So scrap all the gatekeeping and let anyone in.

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 10/11/2018 18:55

spannablue care to explain? Oh no, you can’t.

MIdgebabe · 10/11/2018 18:55

Hi spannablu,

As ever please report any transphobia.

As ever, if possible take the time to explain exactly what you feel is transphobic, and why.

AGHHHH · 10/11/2018 18:57

Of course it's not transphobic to state facts. Fucking hell.

Females do not have penises.

AGHHHH · 10/11/2018 18:58

@spannablue More SJW bullshit.

I'm a lesbian. I have lots of trans friends. I don't feel pressured or threatened.

Anyone pressuring for sex is wrong. I've been pressured by many people, none of whom were trans.

Boring rehash of transphobia. Boring boring boring. All these 'arguments' have been had.

JacquesHammer · 10/11/2018 19:00

More transphobia

Please do report any posts which exhibit transphobia.

It’s a bit of a tired old trope though, designed to shut down reasonable conversation.

JacquesHammer · 10/11/2018 19:01

You do know it isn’t compulsory to read every thread? The title was clear.

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 10/11/2018 19:02

I have seen tweets/posts quoted online, where someone is telling lesbians that they should stop being so focussed on genitalia, when they say they don’t want PIV sex. I am glad you are not being pressured, but some lesbians are.

Why is it boring to say that someone who uses their penis to rape a woman is committing a male crime?

How can the penis be a female sex organ?

spannablue · 10/11/2018 19:02

No thanks. I'm not going to say it all again. Click on my username and read my posts and references and links if you want reasons for my viewpoint.

I posted so people know there are other opinions. I'm leaving the thread now.

There is never a correct opinion that states a penis can be female. HTH

lassupthebrew · 10/11/2018 19:04

How can anyone argue it is transphobic to say that a penis is a male not female sex organ?

I am trans and know perfectly well that statement is true.

Surely the world has not completely lost its senses?

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 10/11/2018 19:05

Again - I am not scared of trans activism (phobia/phobic means scared) - I am fucking furious about the attempted erasure of women, and the denial of scientific facts.

AGHHHH · 10/11/2018 19:05

Anyone with a single working braincell: "Women don't have penises"

Deluded SJW, obsessed with accepting things without basis: YOU'RE BEING TRANSPHOBIC. I'VE REPORTED YOUR POST AS YOU MUST AGREE WITH ME. STARBUCKS IS BETTER THAN COSTA.

Nicknamesalltaken · 10/11/2018 19:07

Ahh there’s loads of shouts of ‘transphobia’ and ‘I have to leave now because you’ve hurt my feelings/I’m upset’ when it’s not going your way - and it’s because the argument simply can’t be won.

Bollocks to it. I’m not transphobic. I care A LOT that people with GD, mental health issues, wanting to erase themselves, not wanting to conform, rejecting masculinity/feminist - whatever it is that makes them want to change their body in the belief of makes them happy. I want them to have all the support, access to heath care, community. 100%, no doubt in the individuals mind. I don’t want TRAs/middle aged men with a fetish grooming young people to validate themselves. And you don’t have to scrape far below the surface of Twitter to find misogyny and porn drives some of it. There’s a fuck of a ‘spectrum’ there, and a lot of what we see is harmful.
