"Brighton’s FETISH March & Trans Pride.

Gendered Intelligence is crowdfunding to send children on a march alongside adult sexual fettishists, including masked pup play.

#Pride2019 WE SAY NO

"@Localgiving are you aware that your platform is being used to fund children to attend an adult fetish march?
One that encourages the children at an adult event attended by masked sexual fetishists? #puppyplay here is a range of images from the timeline of attendees #safeguarding t.co/bGetW0GD4n "

I wonder if that Owen guy from the Guardian has a view on this he'll write about...

Expect a rant bout terfs and swerfs. Or something.

Ugh its all just obviously so wrong, yet its alwso horrific to say it out loud, so much so that noone in authority dare say that its fucking wrong. I don't understand how we have got to this stage without more speaking up, I really don't.

The Nazis made what they did more and more obvious to ordinary Germans. They didn’t say anything at the start and by the time they realised they should, it was too late and too dangerous.

FredaFrogspawn · 06/07/2019 05:11

The complex field of sexual fetish has absolutely nothing to do with the important arena of lesbian and gay rights.

SophoclesTheFox · 06/07/2019 06:46

I’m curious as to why the fetish March is billed as a protest march.

What are they protesting?

I’m not clear on the linkages here. Does it go: Gendered intelligence are fundraising to send people, including children, to Pride, and a grab bag of assorted fetishists are marching in solidarity with the gendered intelligence trans representation? Just want to check that I get what’s happening.

We urgently need to sort out what pride is for these days. On the one hand, it seems to be for corporates to paint themselves with rainbows and virtue signal about inclusivity, and on the other, it now seems to be about opening up the umbrella for every fetishist to drag an unconsenting joe public into their cosplay in wildly inappropriate ways.

Actual lesbians, though, are not welcome.

TheBigBallOfOil · 06/07/2019 06:49

In a nutshell it’s been taken over by straight men. Those with fetishes at one end of the spectrum, those running big corporations at the other.

SophoclesTheFox · 06/07/2019 06:58

I think you’re right, bigball.

NonExistentFox · 06/07/2019 08:33

I am at a complete loss to understand why fetishistic activities need public acceptance. It's a private matter between consenting ADULTS surely.

This is why.

Have you even heard of the lesbian sex wars?

Am I allowed to throw the giant hissy fit that I get from this board whenever I make this point to you?

FredaFrogspawn · 06/07/2019 08:41

No, please explain to me the lesbian sex wars, NonExistentFox and why they give reason for fetish - which I understand to be cross homo/heterosexual sexual paraphilias- to be brought into the specific field of lesbian and gay rights campaigning.

NonExistentFox · 06/07/2019 08:58

Nope. Today is London Pride. Give the straight entitlement a rest and put the lavenderwashing project on hold for the day.

Cazziebo · 06/07/2019 08:58

why are gay men not objecting, and objecting to the open targeting of children, and abuse of lesbians?

The gay men I know are very outspoken about this. We do need someone that people will take notice of to stand up and say that PRIDE's days are over. So many brands are right now sporting rainbow logos "PrideProud". Sleepwalking right into a very dangerous place....

LangCleg · 06/07/2019 09:00

This is why.

Are you saying that kink marches at Pride with the political purpose of overturning the Spanner judgement? For the right to consent to GBH? Is it just Spanner they want to overturn or Emmett too? Just want to be clear on the sexual orientation aspect of this campaign I hadn't heard about.

And what does this - or Spanner or Emmett - have to do with children? Why are campaigners who want to overturn judgements on risky adult sex linking up with child transition lobbyists? Unsure of the connection there. It's not obvious to me.

Datun · 06/07/2019 09:18

If there is precedent to say you can't consent to GBH, how come men are saying women consent to acts leading to their actual death during 'sex games gone wrong'?

MoltenLasagne · 06/07/2019 09:21

It seems that judges believe (gay) men can’t consent to GBH but obviously women want it.

Juells · 06/07/2019 09:26

Misogyny, abuse of lesbians, and fetish. It's going to cause a backlash against gay men that will undo all the gains that have been made.

BernardBlacksWineIcelolly · 06/07/2019 09:31

please explain to me the lesbian sex wars, NonExistentFox and why they give reason for fetish

I too have never heard of this and am reading with interest

LangCleg · 06/07/2019 09:36

I'm really, really interested in the implication that kink marches at Pride with the political purpose of overturning Spanner. Will there be banners to this effect? How does this campaign to extend consent to harm during sex link to forging fundraising connections with child transition lobby groups?

This is all news to me. Very interested in the specifics.

NeurotrashWarrior · 06/07/2019 09:54

Wtf if lavender washing?

NeurotrashWarrior · 06/07/2019 09:55

WelshMoth · 06/07/2019 09:58

NonExistantFox wtf are you on about?

BogglesGoggles · 06/07/2019 10:00

This is homophobia.

Christ Almighty I feel sick.

We CANNOT be the only ones talking about this, surely?

Justhadathought · 06/07/2019 10:04

I don’t understand why sexual fetish groups are trying to muscle in on pride events. The world is losing the plot 😡

Because fetish is such a large part of the gay male scene, in particular.
That translates to, " No criticism or reflective thinking at all, when it comes to gay culture. It's all wonderful!"

AlunWynsKnee · 06/07/2019 10:05

Why is there a separate Trans Pride a couple of weeks before Brighton Pride? The main event is LGBT+ surely?
