Please do not not respond to that thread. TRAs get off on it.

If they do not want a debate then no discussion is necessary.

Peace and love xx

This thread is weirder than the other one.

'Tis indeed.

OvaHere · 04/02/2018 20:38

I'm also a bit confused.

Elendon I hope you are okay. You've always struck me as a measured poster. I know today has been a rough peak trans kind of day Flowers

Please don't anyone go back to lurking we have plenty of threads to go round on here.

I'm confused.

Elendon I think I do get what you mean about not providing wank fodder for an obvious troll who was getting his jollies from winding up women.

But the thing is I actually think the #nodebate thing is so dangerous that I don't care how many boxes of kleenex the pervy fucker is getting through, we can't let this go unchallenged. Ever. Even at the expense of becoming complicit in some perve's wankathon.

But Flowers nonetheless. It has been a tough few weeks - the Rose McGowan incident, last week's Observer article saying "here, let's campaign to put a bloke who likes breaking into houses so he can wank into teenage girls' knickers,that would be the progressive thing to do, amirite?", WA (WA, ffs!) deciding that pandering to men's genderfeelz is more important than supporting women in absolutely desperate straits due to male violence. It just feels like the crap has ramped up to a whole new level of crazy. It is taking a toll on everyone I think, and I totally see why you want to draw a line in the sand and say "no pandering to these abusive men." For you, that line in the sand is letting them wind women up at will, for me that line in the sand is taking part in the #nodebate crap.

I think Elendon is feeling fucked off, as we all are, and misinterpreted Cankles.

Crossed wires.

CertainHalfDesertedStreets · 04/02/2018 23:01

Cankles and schroedingers also.

But yeah, it's been a shitty week.

CakeBrewFlowers to all.

Oh and the pub is >>>>>>>>>>> Wine

Sorry about the meltdown yesterday. I need a bit of a break and have work to do. Thanks for all your help and sorry for being peaky (trans).

Elendon, I understand and I’m sure everyone else does, too. Hope you’re ok Flowers

Beerincomechampagnetastes · 05/02/2018 09:08

For you all Flowers
It has indeed been quite a distressing few days.

ReluctantCamper · 05/02/2018 20:06

Flowers Elendon , just a lurker but I came back to this thread today hoping for an update as you sounded so distressed and you're normally so measured. Hope things are OK for you.

SchrodingersFrilledLizard · 05/02/2018 20:13

Thank you, CertainHalfdDesertedStreets. That is very kind of you.

ReluctantCamper · 05/02/2018 20:18

yes, also Flowers to cankles and SchrodingersFrilledLizard. It sounds like things got pretty heated round here yesterday. I was busy 'living as a woman' (a.k.a looking after the kids while DH did one of his many time consuming activities) so missed it all.

I see the thread has reappeared now so about to settle down for a good read in a bit
