Chatted about make up

See they're a woman! They do those things that all women do!

TellsEveryoneRealFacts · 23/06/2018 16:29

Almost as if they are goading people to have to point things out. Weird.

Melamin · 23/06/2018 16:32

No, never happens.
Total fluke, one off.

daim you don't do sarcasm, do you ?

Randomname234 · 23/06/2018 16:35

No not only daim, also serfisafleur, floralbunting, and positivelyperf. All mentioned self ID. As I stated, I don't see the relevance.

As for men entering women's bathrooms... I wish there was an easy answer and it's alarming. I think harsher prosecutions and more thorough follow ups of theses perverts would help. Go on any mainstream porn site and this kind of bathroom stuff is easy to find, seemingly without prosecution when they actually manage it. It's a shame that it's being 'normalised' that way.

Randomname234 · 23/06/2018 16:36

No kettle pot, she looks lovely. She's a close friend of mine, and yes enjoys wearing make up. I'm happy to chat to her about it.

How do you know this?

She a close friend but then she just left the bathroom?

You didn't walk out together?

Randomname234 · 23/06/2018 16:39

I do cone here to time to time. I spent a large amount of time with trans people. I see posts relevant to my life. Don't often bother posting. I world describe myself as a trans-inclusionary radfem. I am gender critical but disagree with some points made on here.

But you think men filming women in nightclub toilets is cool?

Randomname234 · 23/06/2018 16:42
  1. I know this because sometimes I watch porn.
  1. No we didn't walk out together. We g didn't come to the event together. She just happened to be at the same place I was at for the event that night. We came in at roughly the same time, I did my make up, she didn't have to do hers but we had a quick chat, she went to the toilet then left.
Randomname234 · 23/06/2018 16:42

If you read my PP you would see that I do not think its cool. At what point did I say it was cool please?

Kyanite · 23/06/2018 16:44

The awareness of self ID will increase this happening. At the moment men don't realise that they can just say they are starting to transition and walk brazenly into women's spaces and start covertly filming them. There hasn't been as much publicity before.

TransplantsArePlants · 23/06/2018 16:44

daimbars

Hmm, I wonder what will make it easier for predatory perverts to get access to women and children Hmm

LangCleg · 23/06/2018 16:46

Gender critical, trans inclusionary, porn appreciative radfem - gosh!

FloralBunting · 23/06/2018 16:46

I'm actually insanely busy today, but I noticed my name invoked so I thought I'd point out that my comment was inspired by daim's instant leap to the notion that this was a thread about trans issues rather than women being safe from creepy men.

Daim's normal procedure is to tell us that these things happen and any concern we may have about a laxity of social rules or legal permissions is ridiculous because these things both never happen and happen whatever we do.

We discuss lots of issues with regards to women's rights here, usually in the context of men abusing those rights. The fact that the first leap, without any comment, is to point out that this is nothing to do with trans people, is defensive to the point of extremely revealing about priorities.

Ereshkigal · 23/06/2018 16:47

1. I know this because sometimes I watch porn.

Wow, you're certainly sounding like the raddest of all the radfems.

TellsEveryoneRealFacts · 23/06/2018 16:49

You said you disagree with some points on here. There is only one point in this thread and that is that some men are likely to film women in toilets more if given more access to toilets to film women in.

Are you saying you agree with the OP? In which case, what has your 'friend' in the toilet got to do with anything?

Bowlofbabelfish · 23/06/2018 16:51
  • that's a man not a trans woman. It just proves that if a man wants to be a predatory pervert in women's toilets he just will. He won't bother changing gender first.*

Daim - thats the point

If you open up the women’s loos to anyone, it doesn’t matter if every transwoman on the planet is a living saint. Men like this charmer WILL exploit the loopholes.

nobody is saying all transwomen are a danger. What they’re saying is that men like the guy in this story will use any loophole they can to access victims. Right now we have a degree of protection because of a bloke turns up we can tell him to sling his hook/there’s social pressure for men not to go in the ladies.

If self ID comes in, that layer of protection goes. Men like camera boy here can waltz in, no right of challenge, and spend as long as they like setting up cameras.

this isn’t even about transwomen - it’s about the men who will exploit the loopholes to access women and children.

TellsEveryoneRealFacts · 23/06/2018 16:53

Tut tut tut - you must know by now that EVERYTHING has to be about or centre the trans people. Otherwise you are being trans phobic.

TransplantsArePlants · 23/06/2018 16:54

I'm sorry but I don't see the relevance to trans issues here. They were both men in your links, they were both prosecuted. Transwoman or not, if anyone attacks or harrases women in bathrooms they will be prosecuted

I am always so very reassured by the 'fact' that, should I be the victim of a crime, the perpetrator will be caught and punished. That's worked out so very well for women up 'til now...

Randomname234 · 23/06/2018 16:54

Langcleg I know, contradictory right Grin.
I know you probably think I'm trying to goad people here but I'm really not. I respect peoples views and I get where they're coming from. I'm not sure I'm keen on self ID either, but I'm still a little on the fence. I definitely am NOT cool with men filming women in bathrooms. They should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law, and sites like x hamster should be doing more to ensure that content is not on there. It's sickening.

What I was responding to was people saying that self ID is relevant in this specific case. I just don't see that it is. Didn't mean to step on toes.
