Verbeena it speaks volumes that you won't answer questions, and constantly say that you answered them earlier in the thread or on another thread so there is 'no point' in repeating it.

I will answer the same questions over and over on this subject. I have no problem with doing that. Do you know why? Because I have a coherent argument that I can back up when subjected to further questioning. I don't need to tell people that I 'answered the question on another thread' or 'at the beginning of the thread'. I will answer those questions again and again. Because I can.

You can't.

VerbeenaBeeks · 10/12/2018 20:57

You derailed this thread with your going round and round
Very disrespectful

Nope, you lot did that by your constant asking of the same questions over and over and demanding I answer them over and over again.

For clarity - Self ID bad, never should be allowed.
Huntley - doesn't deserve breath never mind anything else.

People - all transwomen, NO go away. Even the fully transitioned ones.

Others - we don't say get lost to them all regardless whereas some do.
Which is what you want us to do. Accept none of them, ever.

Ereshkigal · 10/12/2018 20:58

You didn't answer the question. Don't tell us what we think, tell us what you do.

littlbrowndog · 10/12/2018 20:59

There you go
Round and round yet again derailing the thread

Ereshkigal · 10/12/2018 20:59

What is "fully transitioned"? Do you mean bottom surgery?

VerbeenaBeeks · 10/12/2018 21:01

I have LITERALLY just answered the "where did you say extreme? Say it again as it's not there" a few posts ago and got the predictable lols and ha banging on posts.
A couple of posts ago. Surely you can see that at least? That I have answered?

Avegemitesandwich · 10/12/2018 21:02

I'm not just talking about that question, I am talking about all the questions you have been asked countless times on these threads

Eg. At what point does a transwoman become a woman, not a man?

littlbrowndog · 10/12/2018 21:02

Nopes it’s relentless.

Verbeena - You have said, repeatedly, that you don't exclude all transwomen.

And that's IT.

You can't explain which ones, or why. You can't explain what fully transitioned means. You can't explain how it's implemented.

It's meaningless drivel.

Ereshkigal · 10/12/2018 21:06

What Datun said.

Bowlofbabelfish · 10/12/2018 21:07

I wonder what would happen if a notorious prisoner tried to use this loophole? Not talking about anyone specific but one of the ‘household names’ ones? Someone everyone has heard of.,

On the one hand, I can’t see it being allowed because public opinion would be so strong. But on the other hand, am I to believe that it’s just the degree of notoriety that’s stopping it? Because it’s certainly not the safety of women prisoners stopping it/not stopping it. The White case showed us that.

And if self ID goes through, would there be any legal recourse to stop it?

VerbeenaBeeks · 10/12/2018 21:08

I don't want to exclude all transwomen regardless. I don't see how genuine, transitioned, transwomen going about their business are harming anyone/
You eresh clearly do. You even said so.
You don't want any of them about near you in your spaces. As to you, they're never biological women, and they're the only ones you'll ever accept.

Bowlofbabelfish · 10/12/2018 21:09

I didn’t ask where you said extreme. I asked WHY you think it’s extreme.

Why is not wanting mixed sex prisons extreme? Surely the exact opposite is true?

Ereshkigal · 10/12/2018 21:09

And if self ID goes through, would there be any legal recourse to stop it?

This is the thing. No I don't think so.

Ereshkigal · 10/12/2018 21:09

Unless they could introduce some form of conditionality which TRAs wouldn't accept as self ID.

Knicknackpaddyflak · 10/12/2018 21:10

Since the poster this thread has been commandeered by started work at a quarter to 3pm yesterday, was flat out on it until 2am and was back in action at 7am, and hasn't taken a break since, I'm guessing this tango isn't going to stop until the thread is full. Or people quit taking the bait, whichever comes first.

You're right, the whole thing is a shite mess.
Thank trans extremist side for that one, self IDing themselves on any given day.

Datun · 10/12/2018 21:11

There would have to be. Public outcry would surely force it.

But it's a massive can of worms.

Ereshkigal · 10/12/2018 21:12

Good for you. Which do you want to include? What is the criteria?

Don't worry about what I think as it has nothing to do with your view, say what you think.

R0wantrees · 10/12/2018 21:12

So that’s the aim ?
Derail thread ?

Its reasonable to question why a single poster would be so committed to controlling a thread such as this. About something so serious and sensitive.

How many posts?

littlbrowndog · 10/12/2018 21:12

Round and round and round. Just statements

You happ6 you derailed thread ?

Bowlofbabelfish · 10/12/2018 21:12

If that’s the case ereshkigal then surely the prison service realise that the system will be abused - and abused in high volume. Any man can transfer on a say so.

There arent that many places in women’s jails - because women commit less crime. There may not even be space to accoodate all these men.

Surely the prison service have this on their radar?

Datun · 10/12/2018 21:12

I don't see how genuine, transitioned, transwomen

Definition of genuine and transitioned?
