Fragrant, stunning, brave ...

Oh dear.

"Sir" is a problem but 'bitch', 'suck my dick' and all the other language is fine? Okay.

I missed a trick as a young teen with my short hair. Constantly misgendered. I didn't realise I could scream obscenities at people instead of cowering and feeling horrible like I did.

happydappy2 · 24/01/2019 15:29

thought that was a spoof video!

BettyDuMonde · 24/01/2019 15:32

If you are filming it yourself it just comes off as a customer services grift.

It’s like a bad episode of Hustle.

NoTeaNoShadeNoPinkLemonade · 24/01/2019 15:33
Hmm
Badstyley · 24/01/2019 15:49

Doesn’t really come across well that does it, either the abusive language or the filming it maamself. I’m guessing maam is not the brightest.

SkylightAndChandelier · 24/01/2019 15:51

What I don't get is, if I mention to many people how annoying it is to be continually mis-named and mis-titled I'm being precious and should get over myself, and don't I have move important battles to fight - when all I'm doing is politely correcting them (if it's worth it. Not even bothering if it's just in passing), why is no-one saying that this person really is over-reacting when they go ballistic over it?

misscockerspaniel · 24/01/2019 15:54

If the cap fits...

Badstyley · 24/01/2019 16:00

Isn’t maam a noun, rather than a pronoun?

GrungeSponge · 24/01/2019 16:02

Nah, mate.

MrsTerryPratcett · 24/01/2019 16:08

I forgot I got called Miss repeatedly recently (presenting in schools). I should have told all the teachers and students to fuck off. "I'm a fucking Ms. suck my dick!!!".

Poppyred85 · 24/01/2019 16:13

Is that a shy, retiring, timid dick the man is being invited to suck?

Poppyred85 · 24/01/2019 16:15

I have a quite unusual surname, the spelling of which is close to a much more common surname, but pronounced differently thanks to the crucial change of a couple of letters. I am frequently mis-named. It really hurts my name feels. I think I might go batshit crazy and use it as an excuse to swear at everyone next time someone does it.

Grin

Well it couldn’t possibly be a great hairy prong.....

Badstyley · 24/01/2019 16:24

Inviting people to suck your genitals, that’s a very male thing isn’t it? I’ve never heard a woman tell someone to ‘suck my clit,’ or not in that context at least. In fact I’d go so far as to say I’ve almost never heard women bring up their genitals in a confrontation.

LordPickle · 24/01/2019 16:27

One of the first comments on twitter nailed it, "gotta love social engineering".

UnDeadPool · 24/01/2019 16:54

I thought he was saying ‘it’s not sir, it’s man’ which at first confused me.

AspieAndProud · 24/01/2019 16:59

Why is it always ‘Suck my dick’?

Why is it the one thing that makes it most obvious that they are male?

OrchidInTheSun · 24/01/2019 17:03

It's not a very dysphoric thing to shout is it? You'd imagine that someone who is distressed by said dick would prefer not to draw attention to it

Err I wouldn’t have thought ‘bloke’ if they had kept their mouth shut.

But the exaggerated movements and actions, the melodramatic way of speaking and of course the ever-feminine ‘suck my...’ gave it away!

I’m going to just refer to everyone as ‘it’ ‘thing’ and ‘oi’ from now on.

MsTSwift · 24/01/2019 19:06

Mentally unwell but still frightening. The comments funny though

CandleConcerto · 24/01/2019 19:08

Why is it so characteristic of these male-bodied people to draw attention to their own (apparently abhorred) dicks? Don’t they get the inherent contradiction?

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 24/01/2019 19:16

Nope

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 24/01/2019 19:22

Well the good thing is that I pass a bookshop that advertises a feminist book club in the window. I’m going and so or my sister (who wouldn’t thought the lgbTTTTTTTTTT one with a barge pole these days).
