Transman kicked out of gay sauna

[Badstyley]

[ www.gaystarnews.com/article/trans-man-sauna/ ]

Seems a transman was asked to leave a male only sauna because he didn’t have a penis.

The sauna said they would have to approach the council to find out if their license would allow them to admit transmen.

Hope the clicky works. If it doesn’t I’ll post the link below.

Waiting for Harrop, Owen Jones, pink news and Peter tatchell to condemn the bigotry

Could someone tweet this to Owen Jones for comment pleeeze!!!

Many respondents pointed to squeamishness or curiosity around vaginas as one of the main sources of cis confusion.

"Cis gay culture is so phallocentric, everybody's expecting a penis," Jack said. "And, you know, some of us don't have that."

On a more serious note, the chances that this transman would sexually assault one of the other customers is zero.

That’s pretty much the same chance the sight of their naked vagina would trigger memories of a previous sexual assault by a woman.

The proprietors were correct asking him to leave but there were no safety concerns here, just the right to free associate with people of your own sex and sexual orientation.

Sorry this was the party

It was a 'sex on site' party and they got banned from Gay Pride for not wanting a vagina.

So essentially gay men were told they were no longer welcome at Pride.

That's a good point, Aspie
Men are allowed boundaries just because they want them.
Women cannot be allowed any boundaries, despite mountains of evidence, facts, and very real threats to their actual safety.

"I understand that the gentleman was male however his physical gender was different and as a customer had already stated that a female was using the venue, I explained that I would need to clarify with the council"

Or?

"I understand that the gentleman was legally male however his physical sex was different and as a customer had already stated that a female was using the venue, I explained that I would need to clarify with the council"

I think I fixed that

This was the Christchurch Pride that had previously boasted 'nothing's too gay for Christchurch pride week' www.scoop.co.nz/stories/AK0705/S00009/nothings-too-gay-for-christchurch-pride-week.htm

Nothing that is, apart from not believing that penis-in-vagina sex is gay.

If you are ever asked to leave a gay sauna because you don’t have a penis the best response is ‘Wait, what? I’m sure I had one when I came in...’

That sauna needs to be no-platformed and rage-tweeted at from here to eternity for their hateful transphobic exclusion! How dare they misgender that trans man and reject his mangina? I hope our trusty TRA folk are onto them and working to get that sauna put out of business. Transmen are men!

Or maybe we could accept that a gay sauna has the right to discretion with regard to the clientele they welcome, given the battles gay men have fought to find spaces where they can get together in peace without worrying about homophobes, voyeurs or the police?

They are gay men GAY GAYGAYGAY

There are quite a few female transmen who identify as gay.

Its quite common, especially with younger transmen.

Its a big thing for Rob Noon (NUS officer) who has a close relationship with Jess Bradley.

This has the potential to take Man Friday to the next level... :-)

Oh please let the next stunt be at a 'full service' gay sauna, lecturing the fellas that the 'spandex ceiling' is transphobic.

Sorry correction, in the end the gay men in Christchurch were cured of their transphobic hatred of vagina.

If Pink News don't publish an article hectoring the sauna for their transphobia, they will be showing their utter hypocrisy on this. Stonewall too.

I* really hope this sort of thing continues. The tide will turn once it starts affecting men.*

I'm so so sad at how true this is.

I have to say, I’m intrigued by the concept of a transman attracted to men. I figured most transmen were lesbians prior to transitioning

The only trans person I know in real life is exclusively attracted to men. He doesn't remotely fit the MN profile of a girl not being allowed the freedom to be a lesbian/ liking boy things.

The bit that makes me giggle is he says he’s ‘very passable’. Sure. The last place a gay man is going to look is between your legs.

The comments on the article are hilarious. Some people have well and truly drunk the kool aid.

So a female heterosexual goes into a male homosexual place and is stunned that nobody wants to get off with her because she doesn’t have the right equipment .

Agree that once gay men become more widely affected by this type of TRA encroachment and boundary-pushing then there will be more understanding (and a swift, male-socialised rejection!) of what lesbians and women in general are being forced to put up with and be silent about.

It your gay male sex-on-premises club doesn't include people with vaginas then it isn't a gay male sex-on-premises club.

That's fo sho.

There is a significant and growing number of young females who are heterosexual and who identify as transboys and gay.

What a cheeky fucker tha5 person was
Ffs expecting other people to accept your delusion.
It’s realy so arrogant to spoil other people spaces
Feck we will be driven into secret spaces where them cheeky fuckers can’t access
Imagine sitting there with your female stuff out and not expecting a guy to say something
This was done on purpose
Very provocative

Some men have vaginas.

Get over it.
