What threads do you always hide?

[Acc0untant]

If any!

If I scroll through and see anyone ask about accountancy help, HMRC advice, tax return, accounts etc I just hide them. I can't stand seeing 90% of the "advice" on those threads being absolute bollocks.

I used to hide the divorce ones when I was going through mine, I didn't want extra headspace going into it.

I went down that rabbit hole myself, so understand it, but it is not good for your mental health

Yup, and the posters doing that, are the reason so many of us hide the Feminism board.

Floods of tears, crying and shaking. Instantly hidden.

Derailment of the thread is impolite and unfair to the OP. The thread title states which threads do you hide so nothing about trans this that or the other.
Going back to the original OP I also hide threads that ask how much I earn or how much I have in savings, as I'm not telling the internet and I suspect a lot of replies would be bollocks anyway

I don't hide them,I just don't bother looking at them. I never look at parking or driving ones,because as a non-driver,I find them boring. But I think I'm in the minority as many Mumsnetters seem to find them fascinating! 😂

I find the parking ones hilarious.

Because they are still male. And 97% from medical data of transwoman retain their penis and testicles for life. Almost none actually physically 'transition'. And how do you suppose we know who still has their genitals intact? How do we find out?

The problem is the male will still look male (have the male height, look, strength etc) and we'll know he's a male. He doesn't have the lived experience of being a girl into a woman. We won't feel comfortable fleeing there to escape a man when a male is there. We won't feel comfortable crying to our friend over a man. We won't feel comfortable rinsing out blood-stained underwear or mooncups at the sink. Adjust our clothes, bras. Or seek help from other women around if we're miscarrying.
See, we will know a male is there. Whether he has the dangly thing down there or not, we will know a male is there. And his lived experience as a male is not the same as ours as females. And we will not feel comfortable talking or being our female selves in front of him. He will make us feel uncomfortable and threatened and frightened, scared that he is there.

No one directs 'hate' to you. Giving arguments in a discussion is not 'hate'. You're just after an excuse to side with the misogynists and run away from critical thinking and discourse.

Women don't get workable penises. They never 'fully transition'. And we know they're female.

Perhaps with the latest decision, people will 'detransition' if it's made harder for them. And then get psychological help. It can be a good thing to end this dangerous social contagion. One that is deeply homophobic, not just misogynistic. And women will realise they don't have to run away from womanhood, but accept it.

Ummm.... they're women.

HTH

Yep. Imagine being on a site for women, and then attacking feminists. Like, wtf are you doing on Mumsnet then if you hate women and feminists so much. Go post on a Mens Rights Activist site then.

So we give up, throw our hands up, say 'men will attack us anyway' and remove all safeguards and protections for women then? Or should we strengthen safeguards and give women and girls safe spaces - that our foremother feminists fought hard for? Why take a shit on their headstones?

Transwomen, as males, have enormous advantage over females. They are physically male and puberty gives them enormous advantage. Why do you think calling a post-pubertal male 'transwoman' means he loses the larger heart and lung size and capacity?

Um, no. You cannot change sex. You can change gender identity but you cannot change your DNA or chromosomes. That's not physically possible. Even transwomen themselves say they know they haven't actually changed sex. A de-nutted male dog is still a male dog. It's the same with humans.

Why do you suppose we have male sports and female sports, then? For fun? Why don't we have brick shithouse men smashing into women on the football field?

Here we go again! It's not about 'trans'. It never has been. It's about men. But since you see everything is about trans, the 'trans obsessive' is you. I wonder if you dream about 'trans'.

No, we will post where we want, how about you anti-women go post elsewhere. Why even be on Mumsnet if you hate females so much? Perhaps find a nice Mens Rights Activist site where you can bang on about how even the female sex are and how we hurt men in the courts.

As has been explained to you ad nauseam, biology is VERY BASIC, straightforward, and unmoveable and unchangeable. If you care to actually educate yourself and listen to actual Biologists. You have had this explained to you over and over again, so why you persist in lying, only you know. But you're making a fool of yourself and I am cringing in secondhand embarrassment for you.

• one poster comes on late in the piece and decides to take issue with everything that's been said so far by spamming the thread with new quote posts

^^I posted that (in response to the OP) a couple of days ago and look where we are now

• Parking threads - I'm terrible at reading diagrams, and they're never as dramatic as I hope they'll be 😅
• Transvestigation/Single sex spaces/Any threads about transgender topics in general, due to them inevitably spiraling into unpleasantness.
• Threads about competitive under/overeating
• Stepchild/Stepparent fallout threads

I don't think there's any shame in admitting that ❤It's important to curate your feed for the betterment of your mental health, it does no good to anyone to transport yourself back to such a tragic time whilst reading through those threads. I'm so sorry for your loss 💐

Ok.

You have a Donald-Trump-like posting style. It's like reading one of his 'truths', the random capitalisation, the breathlessness, the accusations, the scare quotes, the bolding. Not difficult to understand why so many of us are naming these threads.

@whatwaytoturn I'm sorry. I think that's very understandable. Please don't feel bad.

Can we take the trans and feminism stuff elsewhere?

Just because you can technically post wherever and whatever you want doesn't mean you should.
