I have had enough of this utter tosh, have you?

Yes

Yes

YES

Yes I’m particularly fed up of privileged tossers using it to bully working people.

I suspect many MN posters agree with you about the Daily Mail being utter tosh.

You lost me at the Daily Mail.

People need to stop pretending no one here reads Daily Mail since every second article shared in is from there🙄🙄

Yanbu

Yanbu I've seen this on another site as well. Absolute rubbish. This nonsense is just out of control now.

totally

The Daily Mail’s done a few of these stories recently haven’t they? Not overtly expressing a view, but picking out examples that highlight how weird it’s all got? Subtly bringing this to the attention of people (ie DM readers) who don’t move in woke or feminist circles and might otherwise might have no clue this is going on.

Never thought I’d be glad of anything the DM wrote, but...

Well seeming Laurence sees fit to use the expression himself, I'd say there is some kind of agenda going on here.

Utterly ridiculous. I sound like my mother but the world has gone mad.

YABU for giving the Daily Mail extra views.

I haven't read the article because I think DM is misogynistic and loves to fuel hate.

Quite.

I'm not entirely convinced it comes from a good place though. The DM probably would like to keep women where they like them to be, up the sidebar of shame, preferably with their tits out as click bait.

Laurence sounds like a snowflakey little twat.

What a narcissist.

To be fair, this is a thread off twitter. The daily mail have just picked up on it.

The correct response should have been, “well he obviously wasn’t talking to you then, Laurence!’.

I am so disappointed when these companies bow down to bullying from ridiculous little narcissists.

YES had enough. Sick of it.

This person had better not ever go to a Christmas pantomime where a bloke (probably Biggins) dressed up as a woman shouts "hello boys and girls". He'd probably explode.

The world has went officially batshit crazy I've had enough

YES had enough. Sick of it

Me too

This, in spades.

Like the Daily Mail or not

It’s far more influential than The Guardian or The Times

I’m hoping they start reporting more on the nonsense of women having a penis and trans women are women

Then we may actually halt the changes being made Twitter isn’t making any difference
