I saw (via twitter) that a spokesperson for audible has made some unpleasant remarks about MN users and they have pulled their MN advertising after complaints from "trans activists" that MN is a hive of "transphobic bigots" so I have cancelled my audible subscription because I find MN enormously supportive and I don't want to support a company that vows so readily to the "born in the wrong body- men are women if they say so" cult.
No clear response has come from Amazon itself in this matter. Does anyone know what their position is? TIa

That’s a laugh considering how lesbians were described back in the day.

That sounds awfully like policing what women should and shouldn't be wearing.
What on earth is wrong with wearing a skirt suit?
You should be able to wear what you bloody well like, unless there was a dress code of only jeans type clothing.

Of course, although the dress code was the same as it had always been, scruff order; he didn't turn up in a white linen suit when he was still he.

But a white linen skirted suit at a bbq is (a) bloody silly and (b) your own bloody fault if it gets filthy, so at that point complaining about having got it filthy is evidence of being bloody silly.

I do hope no woman would be so stupid as to wear a completely unsuitable costume for an occasion she knew very well it would be utterly and absurdly inappropriate for -- and if she did, well, she gets to launder it, not complain to the host that their venue didn't suit her fashion choice.

It's called "I don't wear my Gucci to the adventure playground, dahling."
