It's on Twitter.

Thankfully the police in the location they have described their friend with the details of this assault are looking into it

Debbie Hayton getting flack for speaking the truth in their reply (saw it from following Debbie)

Debbie says don't blame women for male violence

And report to the police not Twitter

100% agree!

The idea of women being able to get away from violent men by showing their vagina leaves me speechless and a teeny bid giggly.

Hands up how many women here would consider that a good idea...

selfidentifyinggiraffe · 24/10/2018 12:58

I won't go as far as saying it didn't happen

I will go as far as saying I strongly have doubts that this actually happened

Yes Juells, I am not entirely sure how that is supposed to have worked.

KatVonGulag · 24/10/2018 13:01

The police were very speedy in looking into a transphobic hate crime in an area near me. In fact the guilty party (according to the victim) received a fine within days, which is great.
Clearly this is a very scary MAN.
Needs to be off the street full stop.

AbsintheFriends · 24/10/2018 13:01

Yes, not seeing how feminists are responsible for the behaviour of violent, drunk misogynists.

Also surprised by 'showing your vagina' as a method of self defence. Better to shout loudly or run, in my experience.

hackmum · 24/10/2018 13:05

I had to read that three times to understand what was being implied. Just to make sure I've got this right: a man threatens a woman with a knife and then asks if she is a man or a woman. She shows her vagina and he decides not to attack because she's a biological woman, not trans. And this is the fault of "Terfs" for spreading hatred against trans people?

In a long litany of batshit statements from TRAs, that's probably the batshittest. At least try to make your lies convincing, people.

Weezol · 24/10/2018 13:05

Confronted by a man with a knife your main line of defence is dropping your drawers?

Juells · 24/10/2018 13:06

😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅

"Show me your vagina" "Oh alright then, just to calm you down"

😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅

Since the vagina is the passage from the cervix to the outside world, anyone displaying it would have to be lying down or the viewer getting down on the floor, or some other contortion. Not that a TW would actually have a cervix, but never mind. Do they mean whatever would be a surgically constructed vulva? Anyway, that was a drunk man with a knife - what has that got to do with radical feminism, trans exclusive or otherwise? But then we women are responsible for all the ills of the world aren't we?

rightreckoner · 24/10/2018 13:09

No woman has ever complied with such a request unless from a gynaecologist.

No woman thinks this would keep you safe from an aggressive man.

This lacks, shall we say, the ring of truth.

Juells · 24/10/2018 13:09

Thinking about the logistics, it wouldn't be that easy to show someone your vagina, would it? How would you go about it? Would you take your knickers off and stand with one leg propped up on a wall, while bending backwards? Or just pull your knickers down and bend over frontwards, presenting a nice target to a violent man with a knife?

FFS, only a man would tweet that kind of FUCKING NONSENSE and think any woman would believe it.

TransposersArePosers · 24/10/2018 13:10

I must remember to take a speculum out with me in future, in case I have to prove that I am actually a masculine female, not a feminine male.

Deathgrip · 24/10/2018 13:11

I’ll take things that didn’t happen for $200...

Juells · 24/10/2018 13:12

Methinks that Neil has never seen a vagina, and doesn't realise that it's located between the legs, that it's not in the same position as a penis.

Budgieinaberet · 24/10/2018 13:14

OMG.
Flash my vagina
Why oh why have I not thought of that ?

Well we can all stop worrying about sexual assaults.
Phew I can rest easy tonight

DancelikeEmmaGoldman · 24/10/2018 13:16

The logistics do seem complicated Juells. Perhaps an expertly executed cartwheel? Or a headstand?

Or perhaps it never bloody happened because it’s too stupid to be true.

And in the unlikely event that it did happen, it’s pretty much proves the point that TW are not W. No woman ever, willingly flashed her fanny at an aggressive man with a knife.

AspieAndProud · 24/10/2018 13:16

I hope this alleged incident is investigated fully - and if it’s horseshit then the police should prosecute for wasting their time.

AspieAndProud · 24/10/2018 13:18

It seems like the sort of story which could only be believed by people with a vague grasp of female anatomy and even less of female psychology.

Badgerthebodger · 24/10/2018 13:19

One assumes that the TRA uses "vagina" to refer to the general pubic area. It's still nuts, of course, because there is no woman on the face of this planet who, when confronted by a man wielding a knife, would remove her underwear so he could see her genitals. It does illustrate how little these men understand about women.

KatVonGulag · 24/10/2018 13:21

I felt bad
But I did think it was odd

MagicMix · 24/10/2018 13:21

I'd believe that a violent man would force a woman to undress at knife point.

I would find it very hard to believe that he had done so because he had been so influenced by radical feminists.

I wouldn't believe for a second that a woman would spontaneously undress in front of a knife wielding drunk man as some kind of defence tactic.

JaneJeffer · 24/10/2018 13:21

I don't understand any of that Confused

Hands up how many women here would consider that a good idea...

It would certainly go against my instincts...
