Alert the TRAs! Transphobia against transwomen!

The tweet:
Straight men: would you date a trans person (m to f) if they’re hotter than regular women

The responses are a bunch of straight 'cis' men displaying obvious transphobia. I wonder if the TRAs will tell them to DIAF, or threat to rape them? Given lesbians are ordered to 'love the ladystick', or suffer the consequences, I am very curious to see what consequences befall straight men.

Answers on a postcard.

Consequences.....fuck all

(I hope thats ok as I don't want to waste the postcard)

The silence on this thread must be because the TRAs are responding to your bat signal... Wonder whether these straight guys will be blocked from Twitter for saying worse things than feminists do? Hmm

Fascinating that a major reaction is that it would then be a gay relationship.

TERFragetteCity · 06/06/2018 09:00

I saw this earlier - some totally expected responses from men there. Just they don't get told to die CIS scum. Weird.

Highlights the double standard nicely...

IJustHadToNameChange · 06/06/2018 09:50

Because women are the easier target.....

LangCleg · 06/06/2018 09:55

Well, colour me surprised.

Opheliah · 06/06/2018 09:58

Isn't it the case that most (80%? Correct me if wrong thought) TW fancy women? So not interested in whether men fancy them.

A better question would be to ask TW who fancy women if they would sleep with a TW.

I remember when James O'brien pushing someone on the radio about where they draw the line as to a 'genuine' transwoman who should be let into the women's toilets etc.

I think a good line would be whether he would have a sexual relationship with them. I imagine he is one of the 'I see them as women except for relationship purposes' types.

BeUpStanding · 06/06/2018 10:05

Actually seeing the double-standard so transparently is quite shocking... Breath-taking really. How the hell can the Trans Twitter Army now possibly say that they aren't targeting and bullying women only? (Real women that is... Natal born women... Females... Old fashioned cunty women. Just to be clear)

Although I'm a stuck record, yet again I point you to the ultimate woke lefty dude bro tweet on this:

Moonkissedlegs · 06/06/2018 10:18

nauticant that tweet is still one of my favourites of all time!

nauticant · 06/06/2018 10:20

Whenever I post it, another poster will come along and pat me on the head and it makes me feel special and clever.

Rufustheyawningreindeer · 06/06/2018 10:22

You are very special and clever nauticant

And it is a funny tweet...what a twat

LaSqrrl · 06/06/2018 10:25

Oh come on TRAs (including the MN regulars), you can surely do better than this? Ensure that the Cotton Ceiling is not just for lesbian knickers, but for het-dude jocks!

And surely the Degenderettes should be all over this afront to their 'authenticness'?

Current case in USA re Women's homeless project reported here:
abc30.com/3514544/
'Shelter forced women to shower with person who identified as a transgender woman and sexually harassed them, lawsuit says'

(Extracts)
"A prominent Fresno charity, homeless women, and the transgender community all say they're experiencing a nightmare come true.

Nine women homeless women signed on to a lawsuit against Naomi's House and its parent company, the Poverello House, saying the last place they could go to feel safe is now dangerous because they're forced to shower with a transgender woman.

The Naomi House bills itself as a gentle haven of healing and a safe haven for single, homeless women, but a new lawsuit says it put a lot of women in harm's way in a very vulnerable spot -- the shower.

It says the shelter requires them to shower in groups, and it opened its doors to a person who identified themself as a transgender woman who made lewd and sexually inappropriate comments, and leered at them while they were naked.

"This is the biggest fear they bring up, that you're going to have people who may not even be transgender in bathrooms and settings where people are naked and their privacy rights are being violated," said Peter Kapetan, who filed the lawsuit on behalf of the women.

Poverello House administrators tell Action News federal law says they have to treat a person identifying as a woman as a woman -- and there's no way to test whether it's true.... continues

Adell Scot, a local transgender advocate, even offered to train Naomi's House employees on how to recognize people just pretending to identify as the opposite gender."

the easy way to stop your blood boiling about other people’s opinions, is to stop seeking them out in order to be offended.

Which is why I feel sorry for the homosexual young people who are encouraged to transition in the expectation that they will find themselves happy in their modified body and then able to get the partner of their dreams. What they'll be doing is removing a very large part of their potential dating pool.

Waddlelikeapenguin · 06/06/2018 10:32

Wow they arent being attacked for being bigots at all! I liked #YFrontCeiling Grin

Stoops to pat nauticant

This is one of the most ironic posts I've seen on MN.
