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.

^^ see. This is why I hide them.

I’m thankful that you do.

"For the other hard of thinking, women don’t won’t males in their female spaces and sports because they are male, not because they are trans. Wash, rinse, repeat."

Except the women who are fine with it. The approach that anybody who disagrees with you can be ignored, therefore everybody agrees with you, is part of the reason people hide the forum.

Mysterian · 15/04/2025 22:35

I don't hide any topic, but there are plenty I just don't bother going into.

Why would I want to venture into a forum where I'm called 'hard of thinking' because I have a differing opinion?

The women of FWR. That is their stance.

Of course there are women who are happy for males to be in such spaces. There are women who will always prioritise male feelings over women.

What they can’t appear to expand on is the why, when logic, stats, studies etc are presented as to why males should be excluded and how detrimental it can be having them there, no matter how they identify. It’s the plopper posters. Have a different opinion by all means, but at least try and back it up. If one could also explain how humans could change sex that would be great too.

The “but what you’re saying is….” <followed by something I have not said> or the refusal to accept that their view of something is not everybody’s view of something becomes tedious.

I have no issue with different views but people incapable of following the logic of a discussion do my head in! Hiding brings me peace 😊

OMG this.^^ The refusal to engage in what's actually been said. The accusations. Anti-Trump and what he's doing to women? You're a TRA.🤯

You keep repeating this over threads when no one has actually said anyone who’s anti-trump is a TRA. Just like if you are a sex realist you must be right wing or how did you phrase it - a trumpette? So much nonsense.

And why we need the ability to hide posters too.

I was called a TRA for exactly that.😆

These sorts of posts often make me reflect on the great wisdom of the theories of Dunning-Kruger

Mylegishangingoff · 16/04/2025 00:24

Trans threads here too. I would actually consider myself to be gender critical but it started to be making fun of how people look in really cruel ways, guessing if women were men because they didn't feel the women looked feminine enough, Trump supporters, just what feels to me like quite extreme vitriol and tunnel vision. It's just way too much for me.

Run along anti trans people

What you see as being the meaning and value behind the endless repetition of that platitudinous mantra is an endless source of fascination.

Anyway, the subject of this thread is content that people hide and why…

CryingAtTheDiscotheque · 16/04/2025 07:33

God yes - the anti trans threads. Awful.

I don't think most women want fully intact males in our spaces where women are vulnerable, nor males cheating women and girls out of sports scholarships, placings or awards. That is is not normal. Unless that woman goes her sex.

Or the you agree with Trump on one thing? You're a Trumper and a MAGA accusation.
