To be a bit cheesed off by this window display?

[Utterlybananas333]

Saw this on the high road today. My daughter asked what it meant bless her. The rest of the display on the other side included cross dressing obscene mannequins who had large breasts and moustaches etc. This was a charity shop that supports homelessness.

That's grim.

Who cares 😩

Theres crackheads in the town centre, noones whinging about them

I think high streets have more problems to be honest.

What an excellent opportunity to teach your daughter about the world and inclusivity and how we are all different etc, I can only assume you didn’t take this opportunity given your post.

I have large breasts and at times it could be said I have a mustache.

be gender critical if you want, but channel it into making change instead of being weird and petty things that mean nothing.

Yet another captured charity/organisation.
It will be interesting to see if this declaration of support for cross dressing men has any effect on footfall or amount of donations or purchases.
They should stick to their original mission statement (supporting homeless people) and not drag in such a divisive issue as the current trans cult.

I'd have gone in and asked them if they had any JK Rowling books.

Virtue signalling nonsense - I'd not bother donating things there but other than an eye roll it wouldn't bother me.

Trans people are much more likely to expereince homelessness so its relevant to the charity.

I don’t agree with them and it sounds all a bit grim, but it’s a free country and they can express their odd views if they wish. I wouldn’t let it bother me; I just wouldn’t shop there.

Love this response!

What a professional display, it really showcases the lovely items one could buy from the shop.

It's sure to increase trade.

You can be as cheesed off as you like, but it isn’t anyone else’s problem.

You don’t like something in a shop window. That’s fine; you don’t have to like it. But the fact that you don’t agree with it doesn’t mean the shop can’t/shouldn’t continue to display it.

Biology doesn’t seem to know this about itself…

I don’t agree with the sentiment. But I like living in a country that allows freedom of expression of views and speech. So I wouldn’t care about this at all. It’s ok to not think the same as the next person and beneficial when we can express our views. I am assuming this is a privately owned shop.

Biological reality exists. I sincerely doubt that sorry display would have the ability to change hearts and minds. I mean look at the state of it.

Many charities have been ideologically captured for quite some time now.

Is there anything that they are not more likely to experience at this point? For such a small percentage of the population they sure do experience a lot

I only see a really shit window display. The rest of it would have passed me by.

I’d just say that some people believe everyone has some Yin and Yang inside them… masculine and feminine traits combined.
I have breasts and a vagina. But very hairy legs, broad shoulders and big hairy feet!
And I wouldn’t go into it further with a child.

I'd vote with my feet and never shop there, much less donate to the charity.

Whst Is it that the protesters of this display up in arms about? The non binary bit? I’m always so confused about this, is it because your frightened you or your child might follow suit?
Would having a simple, calm and neutral conversation at an early age help them understand better? Do you really think it would corrupt them?

Why on earth would you not shop there? It’s a few plastic dolls and a cardboard sign?

I didn't realise this. I wonder if it's connected to mental health issues, would be good to see the research behind this statement.

I’d just assume they had someone in on work experience who wanted to do something a a bit quirky.

Good learning opportunity. Some people feel they are a different sex to the one they are born and that's absolutly fine. They will "feel " it but never really become that opp sex.

What’s ‘obscene’ about a mannequin with breasts and facial hair? Quite aside with their being nothing obscene about being transgender or non-binary, there are many many cis women for whom that is their reality, are you calling them obscene?

It’s a private business who are perfectly entitled to their opinion on this subject, so I don’t see why you are ‘cheesed off’ how does it affect you?
