Backlash against Trans women

306 replies

ITVeveningnewsclip · 18/09/2025 19:24

(Story on ITV news about drag performer who died after taking drug ketamine, not suicide, just a regular user it seems who took more than usual.) Thus post isn't about him.

Anyway, bloke during story moaned that 'we are currently seeing a backlash against trans at the moment, particularly trans women' (men), and 'that's not a world I want to live in'.

I mean seriously, the TRA has been abusive to women for years for even mentioning any concerns, yet now trans women are victims (again). Perpetual victims it seems. These men are frankly ridiculous. I get fed up of the men in dresses and their victimhood.

I'm fed up of the whinging from them. I don't dislike them as individuals. They come over as tone deaf to the struggles of real women.

Okaay. The trans population of the UK is 0.5% of the whole population. How much actual whinging are you on about? I feel it's more the transgender haters in the last 15 years or so have been the ones do the majority of moaning.

Particularly on Mumsnet - the whinge in never bloody ending.

They’re quite a loud, demanding, entitled minority of the population though. And what they are demanding is misogynistic, unreasonable and absurd.

@GargoylesofBeelzebub

Goodness me, that’s a real puzzler isn’t it?

I can only assume that if, for example, you are a six foot plus former hockey player with a tendency to burst into tears when thwarted by a five foot nothing in her socks middle aged menopausal woman, then it illustrates how superior your heightened emotional sensitivity is compared to us poor creatures who are only women because we were born women, and haven’t tossed and turned for probably weeks and weeks of sleepless nights in a quandary about our true identity.

Just another example of how much better men are at being women than women are at being women, you’d think we would have recognised and accepted this phenomenon of nature by now.

Well this back lash against trans women is worrying isn't it? Biological women doxing them, threatening them with rape and violence, even death threats, you can't blame them being scared and upset, oh no wait.......

They are a very noisy bunch of men. The news story I referred to was main news ITV and someone managed to shoehorn in poor trans identified men! No pushback when he boo hoo hooed from the reporter.

They might not be the same in many ways, but they do have the following in common. They are men who have stolen from women, starting, but not ending , with our word “woman”.

Which is why I don’t use the dishonest transwoman word any more. I call them what they are TIM. Trans identifying men. Doesn’t stop them dressing and living as they want, but puts some reality back in the equation.

I'll use TIM in future too. Men shouldn't steal the word women.

As a previous poster has said Sandie Peggie is the latest example. The trans identifying male even made notes on the times she waited until he was done before entering the changing rooms.

There are many other examples. https://reduxx.info/civil-rights-complaint-filed-after-illinois-school-reportedly-forced-girls-to-change-in-front-of-trans-identified-male-student/

Wow.

That's disgusting. The school basically allowed and enabled a pervert to watch girls undress and forced them to undress in front of a male. What were the school thinking. Why do people bend over backwards and allow girls and women to be perved at by TIMs?

"Only a few days later, “the situation went from bad to worse,” as according to Georgas, the male student was then present in the girls’ locker rooms for their Physical Education (PE) class. The girls, unwilling to have their privacy violated even further, collectively refused to undress in front of him. The following day, Assistant Principal Cathy Van Treese hauled the girls into her office and questioned them, before escorting them to their locker room and forcing them to change into their uniforms with the boy present. Van Treese was accompanied by Assistant Superintendent Joanna Ford and Director for Student Services Ginger Logemann. The monitoring to ensure compliance allegedly happened “all week,” Georgas explained to the district."

Complete madness

"One speaker Charlie Friedman, who serves as a director for the Trans Upfront organization, accused Georgas of “bullying” trans-identified children just for being concerned about her daughter. Another argued it was a “deliberate misrepresentation” to claim that girls were forced to change in front of a boy, because “who they’re talking about is a girl, a transgender girl,” comparing their concerns to racism, while a third suggested the school would have to perform “genital checks” on students, because “a lot of transgender people pass.”

The final speaker, Tina Nelson, who wore a shirt reading “Protect Trans Kids” alongside a knife, directly confronted Georgas, staring her down and accusing her of using a “white supremacist religion to push the agenda of their cis white husbands… targeting a middle school student because of your white God.”"

Vast majority of trans women do not want to disadvantage women. You live in fear because of a tiny majority that is being blown our of proportion (on places like Mumsnet too). How many trans women do you actually know and how many of them tried to harm you in any way? I guess the number is zero, but you still feel the need to rant and be 'fed up with them'. Get out from your cave, go and talk to trans people, they dont bite.

So are the reasonable trans people criticising the loud unreasonable trans people? Where?

Oh 'look over there! 'look over there!' Lets change the subject! It is not 'nuts' to not want men watching girls undress. Only a predator would think stopping that is a 'nuts agenda'.

So 0.5% of the population.

How many Trans people does it take to have a massive knock on affect on women's services?

Ans 1

And they can affect hundreds on women.

Why shouldn't women be allowed to be loud about this?

ITVeveningnewsclip · 21/09/2025 05:41

Protecting women and girls is never a 'nuts agenda', only people supporting predators would think that.

SoMuchLego · 21/09/2025 09:34

Also I don’t believe that trans people make up as much as 0.5% of the population. That would mean there’d be about 300 in the smallish town where I live. Nah, I’m not buying it.

Also there’s nothing that trans people can’t do that anyone else can’t do… they can be housed, marry, have children, adopt, be employed, wear whatever they like, receive education, healthcare and benefits, be in relationships with whoever they want, just the same as well, everyone else.

What they can’t do is impose on opposite-sex-only spaces/provision/services, control other people’s thoughts/beliefs/knowledge of facts/language, or engage in objectively morally-questionable and criminal acts (grooming, sexual assault, voyeurism, exposure, verbal abuse, raising vexatious complaints etc. etc.).

I know that society has grey areas and nuance to it but I just can’t see where the problem is, other than that a very small number of men (mainly) get very upset that a lot of people say no to their (often sexualised) wants and desires.

LoftyRobin · 19/09/2025 08:34

Yes and it is so unhealthy here that members see a picture of a female sex abuser and imagine that they are really a man. I think it is all going way too far at this point. Mumsnet had to remove the thread so as not to start rumours that could jeopardise the trial!

Edited

What has gone too far is that major news outlets are constantly describing male rapists and sex offenders as women just because these men say they are. What’s gone too far is that statistics for sexual crimes is being skewed to pretend that more women are enacting these crimes than they are. What’s gone too far is that women who are affected by this have been told to refer to their rapists as “She”.
What’s gone too far is men in women’s prisons raping inmates.

And doubling down on the lies. Of course we question what they print, when we know they have a habit of lying to us.

This is abuse. I hope the parents of those girls sue the school into ashes for the trauma they have put those girls through.

Women are disadvantaged in certain ways and trans women (or men who present as feminine even if they don’t call themselves trans women) are disadvantaged in other ways. There is a genuine conflict of rights in some cases. But I don’t think this combative discourse between the two sides, of which this post is a perfect example, is helping resolve anything.

I mean this person is right isn’t he? Lots of people strongly dislike trans women. As evidenced by the fact you’re on here complaining you’re “fed up” of them. That doesn’t mean women don’t also have plenty of problems.

I don't believe women are disadvantaged in the slightest, I largely see the trans issue as a 'non-issue'. I don't agree that trans identified people should be getting any of this recent attention, people are the sex they are born. Wear what you want and call yourself what you want. That's the beauty of freedom we all enjoy.
