The whole active thread list is always taken up by tons of trans bashing threads. How is it acceptable? Anything relating to anyone transgender is bashed. If this was against another minority of people, race, sexuality, religion it would be taken down and reported as hate crime. I don’t understand how the feminism board makes it acceptable?

Now I'm humming The Wonderstuff

Why?

Did they do a song about wanking cats?

”...Cats are always jerks...”

Sometimes they are bastards too.

On an entirely unconnected note, my cat’s nickname is CatBastard. Grin

And i agree with bigchoc

Siamese cats can be trained to walk on a lead and rabbits can be housetrained and walked

I once saw two cats being taken for a walk on the lead around a National Trust water mill in Cheshire.

Rufus it's perfectly safe. It's about cows. Grin

Holy crap that’s a massive rabbit.

Captain good job on not making the joke. There’s definitely one in there.

CaptainKirksSpookyghost · 16/11/2018 22:11

A big rabbit could probably fit into child reins.

SmileEachDay · 16/11/2018 22:12

I also now have an ear worm.

My cat has always been the most imperious madam in the world, then we got a dog, and she has realized that the only way we will remember to feed her and keep the dog out of the kitchen is if she is extraordinarily nice. It's quite an amusing transformation.

No, it wouldn't.

So someone saying just as an example "Muslim people want to.... insert whatever word here.... Westerners.....
wouldn't get taken down? I can bet you it would. Or at least I bloody well hope it would!
Doing the same to all trans is just as not acceptable.

wheresmyhairytoe · 16/11/2018 22:13

I'm wit you OP.

I'm aghast at the hatred on here for trans people.

wheresmyhairytoe · 16/11/2018 22:14

CaptainKirksSpookyghost · 16/11/2018 22:14

Muslim people want to hug westerners..... Who may also be Muslim because it's a religion.

SmileEachDay · 16/11/2018 22:15

Could you be more specific Hairy

I love the sound of your transformed cat Floral! Is she all snuggly now?

FloralBunting · 16/11/2018 22:16

Verbeena, have you honestly seen posts saying 'All trans people are rapists and murderers' though? Ones that get roundly agreed with and are allowed to stand?

Rufusthebewilderedreindeer · 16/11/2018 22:16

rufus it's perfectly safe. It's about cows

Oh god the relief

FloralBunting · 16/11/2018 22:17

Smile, oh yes. She used to look at us like we were scum if we tried to stroke her, and now the manipulative mare actually strokes us.

VotingFox · 16/11/2018 22:18

And more bizzarely rabbits, why would you need to walk a rabbit?

My SIL does. I have photos to prove it.

EarlyWalker · 16/11/2018 22:18

I’ve seen plenty calling all trans woman a ‘man with a fetish’

Doesn't it chew the harness to bits?

Rufusthebewilderedreindeer · 16/11/2018 22:20

early

I haven't

Im not going to say there has never been one but I certainly havnt seen plenty saying that ALL transwomen are ....

VerbeenaBeeks · 16/11/2018 22:21

Hug wasn't the word I was going for, yes, I agree with hug works for everyone lol Smile
Other less nice words which some do think Muslims want to do to us and so tar under the same brush is the same kind of behaviour though.

EarlyWalker · 16/11/2018 22:22

blue Peter voice here’s one I shared earlier...

Although I know you may not be able to see it as it is a screenshot.
