Delightful.

There is an article in the Times about Larry the Cat and his inability to catch mice. I don't suppose anyone has a sharetoken .

ElfrideSwancourt · 04/02/2018 11:21

Such a well-written article- if I share it on fb will people be able to read all of it?
I hate that I'm scared to share it but I feel so strongly about this issue.

Is it me or is that a bit bloody obvious in how totally trivialised the 'rights of transmen' bit is? Transwomen get Everything. Transmen with shh! vaginas well we'll stuff a tampon machine in the loo, that's our single objective for you and as big as the vision gets where you're concerned. And we just haven't got around to it anyway because the transwomen are so much more important. How interesting is it anyway that Bex pretty much says here the transwomen will decide what the transmen need, get, and when, and where they fit on the priority list?

Exactly this, and the likes of Bex Stinson aren't self aware enough to realise how they are doing this.

I have some small hope that the TIFs will eventually play a large part in bringing this shit down. The biggest jump in referrals to gender clinics in recent years has been young girls and I think the majority of them will desist at some point (and probably peak trans).

Sadly not before a lot of irreversible damage has been done to female bodies but I can see that collectively their voices may form an important part of a future backlash.

Elfride, if you share a link with a sharetoken in it, like this one www.thetimes.co.uk/article/labour-s-purge-of-the-trans-rights-heretics-p32khgn36?shareToken=e724162e3ce8e2821f897c734dd2f7e2 then anyone can read it.

YetAnotherSpartacus · 04/02/2018 11:45

Thank you, Empress! Naughty Larry! There was a photo and lots of bad puns and everything :)

ElfrideSwancourt · 04/02/2018 11:47

Thanks @EmpressOfJurisfiction I think I'll be brave and share it.

EmpressOfJurisfiction · 04/02/2018 12:00

Good on you, Elfride.

Justabunchofcunts · 04/02/2018 12:22

Empress I think this and the other tweets about this have got a bit lost in this thread. Am going to copy and paste and put in a new thread suggesting people show support.

OlennasWimple · 04/02/2018 13:38

I shared the article on my FB and have got no responses whatsoever. I can't tell if that's a good or bad thing, but at least I haven't been accused of being a bigot

HerFemaleness · 04/02/2018 13:48

Re. tampon machines in the mens loo's.

I'm thinking out loud here.

We are told transwomen can't use the men's loo's because they're at risk from violent men will be viciously attack them soon as look at them.

Tampon machines in men's loos' will make said vicious violent men very aware that not all who are in there are biologically male

Wouldn't this put transmen at risk as well as small effeminate looking men?

Or are we expected to believe that these violent brutish men who are lurking in toilets waiting for transwomen so they can beat the stuffing out of them would give a transman a free pass?

hackmum · 04/02/2018 13:55

"Or are we expected to believe that these violent brutish men who are lurking in toilets waiting for transwomen so they can beat the stuffing out of them would give a transman a free pass?"

Who knows? None of it is very logical, is it? See also the fact that transwomen don't want to use men's toilets because they're frightened of violent men, but when women say they want to protect women-only spaces because they're frightened of violent men, they're told not to be so silly and women are just as violent as men.

BeyondWitchbitchterf · 04/02/2018 14:13

I had the same olenna. Im beginning to wonder if people have hidden my posts Grin

DixieFlatline · 04/02/2018 15:25

Also shared on my FB, no response either!

thebewilderness · 04/02/2018 19:25

I suspect the issue of being incarcerated based on gender identity in Canada may be the point at which trans identified females say wait just one effing minute.

EmpressOfJurisfiction · 04/02/2018 19:28

There's also the argument that if a woman is attacked in a toilet, that's already illegal so she can report it.

But the counter that TIMs can equally well report being attacked in men's toilets doesn't go down very well.

Justabunchofcunts · 04/02/2018 19:28

Interesting re: sharing on Facebook. It is entirely possible they are not showing up, given facebook's form for censoring posts on feminism, and the criteria they use for community standards.

MyOwnShed · 04/02/2018 19:53

Out of interest, is there much being done to make make loos safer for TIMs?

ALittleBitOfButter · 04/02/2018 21:05

There isn't a single mention of agp or sexual fetishising on the comments in the women's aid article. Would they have been deleted? There are plenty of suggestions of dodgy motives though.

rowdywoman1 · 04/02/2018 21:08

The Times do allow mention of agp and an explanation of it as a sexual fetish in their comments - I've seen it several times. Their moderation has been fairly relaxed as long as people are careful I think.

ALittleBitOfButter · 04/02/2018 22:16

Probably because there's so many angles to consider, nobody's got around to mentioning it.

What I'm waiting for is the explosive mainstream expose of the trans rights movement as fetishists and people with dubious motives using those with gender dysphoria as a human shield.

The coopting of liberal feminism is breathtakingly magnificent. Macchiavelli amd Goebbels would be proud. To be able to get those who lose out to virulently defend you, to the point where when the paedophilia/sex offender mask slips, you can still do no wrong. It really is impressive.

ALittleBitOfButter · 04/02/2018 22:18

It also shows clearly, i think, who on the left is a critical thinker, and who is a sheep.

ALittleBitOfButter · 04/02/2018 22:19

Mind you, we're all masquerading as sheep at the moment aren't we? Out of fear. Wolves in sheep's clothing.
