Looks like Jane Fae is on to explain why it's not the same as transgender...

Oh bugger... Transage, not translate.

Thanks Floral - watching with interest.

littlbrowndog · 12/11/2018 10:41

Lols fae was pissed at that but couldn’t explain why

FloralBunting · 12/11/2018 10:43

Hahahaha. He's clearly a nutbar, but it was really quite funny seeing Fae getting huffy about it all.

I particularly enjoying Fae's assertion that transgender people don't 'compare' their oppression to 'black people's oppression' and that there was a biological basis for transgender.

Oh, and the admission that Fae also lies on Tinder. Classy.

Fae said ppl were being hurt and upset by the guy on the transage
Fae said there were 50 years of trans I think and dsyphoria was a valid thingie
The guy said I respect you feel like a woman you should respect I feel like a 49 year

Pythagonal · 12/11/2018 10:45

I thoroughly enjoyed that. Interesting juxtaposition of topics this morning, coercive control and trans age.

littlbrowndog · 12/11/2018 10:48

Oh yeah fae tried to bring the biology bit in for being transgender
Feck fae did get huffy. I was thinking fae was going to start shouting at the guy
Bet fae stomps out the bbc in a fizzing mood

FloralBunting · 12/11/2018 10:48

It's more than a feeling, it's an identity.

Enjoyed that debate. Particularly liked Jane Fae's comment to Emile Ratelband "you do not need to go down this route".

littlbrowndog · 12/11/2018 10:50

But then I hate watching this show as I hate the sad music and Victoria special sad face
I sacrificed myself 😂😂💪😉

littlbrowndog · 12/11/2018 10:51

Yeah don’t take the special away from me fae

LangCleg · 12/11/2018 10:54

I sacrificed myself

Someone has to do it, darling, and rather you than me. I can bear Fae et al - it's Victoria's special sad face that does for me too. I become enraged and throw things.

FloralCup · 12/11/2018 10:57

I thought transpeople were just wanting to be their 'true selves' - so why would you lie about your age on tinder then - that ain't being truthful!

FloralBunting · 12/11/2018 11:00

Oh, the Dutch bloke didn't make an awful lot of sense, which I put down to the language barrier. But I did also note with some satisfaction that at one point Victoria Derbyshire had to interrupt him to let Fae get a word in. Hilarious to see poor Fae not be able to dominate the conversation.

sounds like something I want to see on catch up. i quite like to see a bit of Fae's misogyny in action. it reminds me who shelters under the trans umbrella

more Jane Fae on TV I say
with some sub titles explaining their interest in extreme pornography obvs
and explaining that they 'came out' to their daughter during her a-levels (yay Dad!)

BernardBlacksWineIcelolly · 12/11/2018 11:02

obviously at the point Fae came out, Fae was Fae's daughters father, so I don't think that comment should be problematic

FloralBunting · 12/11/2018 11:02

"Why can't you just lie on Tinder, everyone does. I know I do!"

The transage chap has as much of a biological claim to his belief as those who are transgender, imo. He's been told his body is in the condition of a 49 year old, according to the reports I heard about this.

ABitCrapper · 12/11/2018 11:19

At least the transage bloke once was genuinely 49.....

AssassinatedBeauty · 12/11/2018 11:23

Yes, he has lived experience of being 49 which surely must be respected.

Budgieinaberet · 12/11/2018 11:26

Floral thanks for taking one for the team.

LangCleg · 12/11/2018 11:54

Imagine going on Tinder and getting Fae as a match up!

Callmejudith · 12/11/2018 12:02

I've just watched it purely to see Jane Fae struggle - brilliant

I was queuing at the bank and this was on the TV while I was waiting, luckily with subtitles. For once I was praying that the cashier wouldn't call me over until I'd seen Jane Fae getting put on the spot Grin

I have to say it was exquisite to see JF frothing at the mouth trying to argue that the 'physiological' reality nullified the transage guy's case. Er.......pot - kettle - black!

What planet are these people on, seriously?
