You know those little things in life that people like to morally police and make you feel guilty about but you just can't muster up the shit to give?

This is a confession thread. I'll start.

I don't give a shit that you supposedly shouldn't feed bread to ducks. I don't care. Don't eat it then. People have been feeding them bread for decades and now we're supposed to bring them organic bloody walnuts or something? Or some other crap they don't want that doesn't float?
They can have my slightly mouldy bread and be grateful.

Over to you.

And further to OneLime's claim to have had a trans friend who killed themselves, the most recent research shows that actually trans people are NOT at a higher suicide risk than other people with the same co morbidities.

The suicide claims are just being used to try to guilt women into thinking they are being 'kind' when they put other women and girls at risk by letting male people into female spaces.

Women are more likely to kill their own children esp single mothers - and you think men are violent? Gtfoh

That's because women are the ones looking after their children in vast majority of cases. Im sure if the number of single dads was the same as single mums, the men would soon catch up

Men are more likely to kill their entire family - family destruction. Except they often mess up the last bit and don't kill themselves.

@Tana433

HOW MANY TIMES??????

I have clearly made the distinction between biological women and trans women.

But you are so blinded by your transphobia you can't see past your bigotry!

Trans women are not biological women but they are women!!!

Get past your antiquated notions of gender and get in the 21st century!

YES. HOW MANY FUCKING TIMES?

Transwomen are men!

I think incel is a quite dangerous and probably a bit self fulfilling label. I think there are lots of people who probably attach to it when they're having a fairly typical teenage wobble

Yes it's pretty normal when you're a teenager to struggle to chat up girls or find a girlfriend.... unfortunately thanks to the internet they let this define their whole personality.

Not in the opinion of the Samaritans

edit: in response to the comment that the prevalence of attempts is the key thing

Shesaidseaside · 01/06/2024 15:46

On mn recently. Just an example. We all know the safety / safe guarding issues. Any (Predatory) men in women’s spaces no no no.

And then we have this. Male fckery in mixed toilets. 🤮🤮🤮🤮

Things you're supposed to give a shit about, but you don't.

@Fariha31 I expect you can use Google as well as the next person and are just making a point.

However here is the WHO definition:

Gender refers to the characteristics of women, men, girls and boys that are socially constructed. This includes norms, behaviours and roles associated with being a woman, man, girl or boy, as well as relationships with each other.

The idea of gender as the set of social expectations and norms put on people based on their biological sex is much older than the trans debate.

But I just feel like a woman,

Yeah when I think of some of the kids I was at school with if there'd been some kind of movement at the time I'm pretty sure they'd have attached to it.
