These women are bloody brave, if I was wearing a hat I'd tip it to them

TellsEveryoneRealFacts not strange at all it's why we have mods so we can all discuss things in a polite manner even if we don't like that person or there views. as long as we are not just attacking them. and not there point anyway it's sleep. Time it's. too. hot night night

You know how some people say they are vegetarian but it turns out that while they don't eat meat they do eat seafood. And actual vegetarians have a problem with this as some people then think that vegetarians eat seafood and it all gets confusing for people trying to understand what a vegetarian actually is.

For practical purposes there may be times when a pescatarian finds it easier to say they are vegetarian presentationally because they strongly feel they align to the not eating meat bit.

But saying you are something does not mean you are.

And vegetarians should not be expected to eat seafood because some pescatarian say or think they are vegetarian.

Is that your other sock on the thread discussing it?

Women get killed for saying No, all the time. Violence towards women is not invisible, it happens in plain sight, its reported in the press.
Muck of the way we behave is to placate potential violence before it happens.

There is no excuse for not knowing about this, and making demands on women that goes contrary to their safety.

Well a minute ago bispin you seemed quite keen on a load of people ganging up and calling someone a dick

Or was that just in RL

Anyway bedboes

Have cool night everyone...

thebewilderness bloody hell I do this on. my phone I have enough trouble posting one account never mind a sock lol bless ya it's just me I'm. not playing games

Oh I like the vegetarian analogy A LOT.

Rufustheyawningreindeer thats alwaya the problem. who decides what being a dick is night night I will give ya that one as its bed time lol

genuinely UnWilly good anqlogy often find this when someone asks my sexuity can answer with the correct long winded explication involving pans or just say gay.

Um. If you're pansexual you're not gay.

But if it just involves 'pans' then maybe you are...

I watched part of pride today and wondered where the lesbians were. Of course you were at the front Blythe where you should be!

CertainHalfDesertedStreets that's the thing gay is often used as short hand as poeple understand it if I want to have the full conversion around my. actual sexuality and they will get it then I would identify more specificly

also if its not involving pans you are doing it wrong lol

I'm seeing the 'anti trans' thing on FB.
From women who have been subject to male abuse :(

Your post has chimed with me.

I read a thread a while back in (I think) AIBU about a vegan eating some animal derived food item and the amount of posters coming on to say it was ok and the animal product consumer was indeed a vegan because they said they were a vegan despite the eating of the animal derived food item astounded me and I remember at the time being struck by the parallels to all of this.

I ate some nice salami tonight but I identify as a vegan then I am one, and it's literal violence to say I'm not and why can't you just be nicer and expand the bandwidth of vegans by accepting those who eat salami occasionally and who are you to say who's a vegan and who is not etc etc etc...

This cheered my up SO MUCH. Well done, all you amazing women.

Best thing since man Friday. Great to know lesbians are fighting the cult

Just adding my bloody well done you brave Women. You are not alone.

Full coverage here and the commentary is hilarious. 'This is the front of Pride March'. Those Fucking Lesbians.

I agree it was brilliant.

I don't eat sausage, I'm a vagitarian.

HAHAHA!

I don’t understand Bespin’s bemusement at how we can be so MEAN as to question people’s identities. I know a woman who identified as bisexual. Being bisexual myself, I got to chatting with her. You can imagine my astonishment when she turned round and said “of course... I’d never date a woman or have a relationship with one. And I couldn’t have sex with a woman. But I enjoy kissing them.” Now...come on. She’s clearly not bisexual. It’s not wrong or nasty to inform people like her that, it doesn’t matter how she “identifies”- if she doesn’t find women attractive and would never have a relationship with one then she simply can’t be bisexual. Does Bespin simply believe whatever people tell her, no matter how ludicrous? When she gets an email from a “Nigerian prince” asking for money, does she reply “I’m so sorry you’re in financial difficulties your majesty”? I just can’t fathom taking people’s identities entirely at face value when their actions and their very words say otherwise.

@Reluctant Camper, there were five Lesbian groups on the march, out of 471. Most other lesbians are part of LGBT groups.

Amazingly five others were listed as Lesbian and Gay, or Lesbian, Gay and Bisexual. Dunno how they got away with that.
.

Oops of course I meant parade, not march.

This was the worst choice they could have made. Pride is an inclusive environment and this stunt defeats the entire purpose of Pride.

Well done, amazing women.
