This is so much bullshit that I CBA to even comment on it. I’ll leave it to you to make your own minds up on it...

Someone's just had their T jab, clearly

numptynuts · 09/10/2018 21:43

The narcissism rages with this one. Erasure of women is the ultimate goal. Or is it womxn now?

Melamin · 09/10/2018 21:43

Only 100 Hmm

Rufusthebewilderedreindeer · 09/10/2018 21:48

I got bored, i made it to 21

Do the rest sum up to 'be nice'?

Particularly enjoyed number 5. Transwomen are women so dont even try and debate it....erm ok

And whats with the womxn bit?? At least womyn makes sense!!

PerspicaciaTick · 09/10/2018 21:49

When everything is already about you, but you feel you deserve more.

BiologyIsReal · 09/10/2018 21:52

Let’s cut the shit – there’s no positive way a cis person can dictate or speak on a life that you do not live and a world you do not have to navigate as a trans person.

Let’s cut the shit – there’s no positive way a trans person can dictate or speak on a life that you do not live and a world you do not have to navigate as a natal woman.

There - fixed it for you Stonewall.

CottonTailRabbit · 09/10/2018 21:53

Me me me me me.

Shall I think about other people. Yes. I will tell them what to do with me me me me. No debate.

Do some people stick at 3 years of age?

Turph · 09/10/2018 21:54

The sad thing is some vice readers will try to do some or all of this but be trapped in the bullshit. Defend us all, but don't tar us with the same brush, respect my triggers but don't ask what they are, buy our stuff and give us money, we are the fucking victims, if we have to explain something to you pay us via PayPal, don't challenge religious hypocrites, trans issues are not for profit but buy our stuff/book us, but not just for trans stuff, don't ask what gender dysphoria feels like because it’s a stupid question and there’s no way you can try to understand it and also then I'd have to justify myself, hug us at the hospital but don't touch us because it's triggering, don't ever speak to a TERF, give money and shelter, tell them they look great and follow them around if they feel "uneasy", Yoruba is genderless (so obviously this shit would fly in Nigeria, no sweat), sex work is a service, don't touch us, come to the toilet with us, trans only groups are our space and you can clear off.
But send us money

LangCleg · 09/10/2018 21:55

I particularly enjoyed the GIVE US STUFF AND GIVE IT TO US NOW thread running through the whole thing.

Grifters gonna grift.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 09/10/2018 21:55

These two really pissed me off (though I didn't read much further):

  1. Do not enter queer or trans safe spaces without a queer person asking you to be there or without making sure that allies are welcome.

  2. When you are in queer spaces, repeat: “This is not my space, I will not fill it” and actually do what you say.

NothingOnTellyAgain · 09/10/2018 21:56

Lost the meaning about 2 lines in.

According to stone wall, and genderist ideas, pretty much everyone is trans.

So the opening but about cis people shut up, who are they taking to? Hardly anyone.

The fact that they assume anyone not openly in their gang is a squaro normski is so teenage I don't even know where to put it :D

Mrscaindingle · 09/10/2018 21:56

Jeez Hmm no one, no matter how much of a hand maiden or how woke they are could possibly think that was reasonable... could they??

hugoagogo · 09/10/2018 21:58

Jesus Christ a 100!

TerfedOff · 09/10/2018 21:58

Does anyone have an easy day tomorrow and can draw up a similar list for women that we can tweet the fuck out of?

ThinkOfAWittyNameLater · 09/10/2018 21:59

This gives me the rage.

I too got to 14 & 15 and nearly choked at the ducking hypocrisy. I couldn't read any further.

If trans women are women (no debate? Fuck of!) then why the fuck do we need a list of 100 ways to make trans people more comfortable.

Incidentally why is it my bloody job to make you more comfortable?

Arrrrgggghhhh Angry

hugoagogo · 09/10/2018 21:59

I particularly enjoyed 41. Do not attend panels that address gender and/or trans identity if everyone on the panel is cis.

Turph · 09/10/2018 22:00

Just write "woman: adult human female" a hundred times. I don't think anyone would agree on a hundred things that were important to us all.

NothingOnTellyAgain · 09/10/2018 22:00

Itsallgoingtobefine just ID as queer yourself, job done.

Given this can now include anything from people who sometimes engage in a bit of kinky sex, women who have short hair and/ or blue hair, men who sometimes wear nail varnish and etc you won't even be lying.

Queer is the new ID for straight people with standard lives who want a piece of the rainbow special glow. People who never have been and never will be discriminated against for their invisible/ mainstream preferences.

Destinysdaughter · 09/10/2018 22:05

I so hope either James Kirkup or the Daily Mail is reading this as they will gave a fucking field day with it...😀

MIdgebabe · 09/10/2018 22:06

Nonsense. This is great. If we could just stop denying that we are all none binary transgender ( sex female and sexuality whatever) then we could see this as a basic list of what we can demand.

Random stranger touches your bump? Report a transphobic hate crime

Man tells you to stop being hysterical? Report it as transphobic hate crime.

Disrupt the gender stereotyping ...brilliant.

We need to be proud of who we are. No more denying our trans identity , sing it from the roof tops. Get attention simply because we are trans

And then mention that sex still matters

FermatsTheorem · 09/10/2018 22:06

God what a fucking pile of shite.

I always used to laugh about the student rad fems talking about wombyn back when I was a wee nipper, but I'm now beginning to think they had a point.

Cyw2018 · 09/10/2018 22:07

I got as far a number 15, and once I had lifted my jaw back up off the floor didn't read any further.

kalinkafoxtrot45 · 09/10/2018 22:08

It’s just a stupid list of contradictory demands. We don’t need saving - oh, but we need you to protect us from this and that. And buy us stuff. Oh yes, and we are the only ones allowed opinions. No debate.

I imagine this might peak a few people...

HamiltonCork · 09/10/2018 22:08

Dear God. How utterly tiresome.
