Oh nice one, Bespin 😂
'It's people's right to do that as long as they don't hurt other peopoe while doing so*
So, what's the problem then? How does carrying a banner stating the dictionary definition of lesbianism hurt anyone?

sackrifice · 30/06/2019 10:10

Bespin, can you clarify that you think 'fake' lesbians are ones born with vaginas, and 'real' ones are ones born with penises please.

Thanks.

Didn't you read their post sackrifice?

Bespin doesn't think they need to justify or back up their views.

Bespin · 30/06/2019 10:16

I have no issue with someone standing there expressing their beliefs, as much as i might disagree with them. There right does not trump others right to stand in front of them with other banners showing the opposite view. if the number of people with the opposite view is much larger than theirs, then maybe there view is not the one that is prevailing in society. we could use other equality issues to demonstrate this point. Were the group often starts out small then builds if that is the prevailing view of society. I am hoping your view is not that, but i'm fully aware it could be and that trans people will continue to be a marginalised section of society. What i hope is that you are not and that society on the whole is moving towards acceptance.

I once stood outside of Tesco's and asked everyone who came out where they shop...

Turns out q00% of the population shop at Tesco.

What i said is that i was not answering your question as the right to free speech also gives me the right not to answer. Please be accepting of peoples rights not to engage. As people keep saying on this forum you don't have to engage in topics you don't want too.

CaptainKirksSpookyghost · 30/06/2019 10:19

100%

birdsdestiny · 30/06/2019 10:19

Thanks for that explanation about the double post.

Eaudear · 30/06/2019 10:20

Acceptance of what?

Acceptance of penis by lesbians?

CaptainKirksSpookyghost · 30/06/2019 10:21

You are engaging, that is what you are doing on this thread.

So taller men get to stand in front of shorter 'fake' lesbian women?

And you can't see this as a problem with women and their rights to demonstrate?

And can you clarify that you think 'fake' lesbians were ones born with vaginas, whereas 'real' ones were born with penises please. It was you that called them fake so explain yourself.

I'd really like you to explain why trans people will be marginalised by Lesbians refusing to have sex with men. Lesbians are female homosexuals so they have sex with other women.

sackrifice · 30/06/2019 10:23

You can stop engaging at any point, but if you do engage you need to explain why you think 'fake' lesbians are ones born with vaginas, but 'real' ones are ones born with penises and how that works exactly.

Eaudear · 30/06/2019 10:23

Please be accepting of peoples rights not to engage.

Nope sorry. You don't get to say that a bunch of women have 'bigoted views' and then when asked to expand on that tell me that it's your right 'not to engage'.

Heres the thing about protest you get to protest but you do not get to do it how you want to always. Like in london the state limit it as you dont get to stand in certain places. So the people could have brought a set of steps to be above the people stood in front of them. They didn't, that is not the fault of the people standing in front of them next time bring steps or bigger poles for banners just an idea.

NeurotrashWarrior · 30/06/2019 10:27

I was pointing out it's all a matter of perception.

Except that if there's only 8-10 lesbians, you know, the L in LGBT, they're clearly being oppressed and ignored.

Pride should be well proud of itself.

Bespin · 30/06/2019 10:28

Your really not understanding the idea of free speech are you. That is exactly what i have the right to do, because i hope a point of view and i do not have to justify that point of view. Im sorry you dont want to accept the concept of free speech.

Bespin · 30/06/2019 10:29

sorry that was alsort of messy spelling lol

So women now need extra equipment to be brought along, to be higher than the tall men that will stand in front of them in order to even have the right to protest.

What happens when the men kick their steps out from underneath them, or put balaclavas on and harass them, or let off smoke bombs to disperse them? Should they have also brought along security, and gas masks? Is it their fault for not being properly equipped to protest their own rights?

sackrifice · 30/06/2019 10:33

And you haven't cleared up the belief that these lesbianis are 'fake' whereas the taller, more muscley, beardy ones standing in front of them are the 'real' ones.

LangCleg · 30/06/2019 10:34

Yes, let's have it.

Bespin · 30/06/2019 10:35

Eaudear

Exactly, you are getting it now though i would watch your language as this forum as rules so there are limits on the levels of free speech here and i would not want you over stepping them.

SpitefulBreasts · 30/06/2019 10:36

Bespin
You still haven't explained how Lesbians are marginalising trans people by refusing to have sex with men.

Bespin · 30/06/2019 10:36

What happens when the men kick their steps out from underneath them

then they have committed a criminal offence.
