I'm not annoyed because I might be a man. I'm most definitely not. I'm actually just finding it quite funny how often I'm being accused of being a man.

Define man. You can't keep writing sentences with ambiguous words.

DtPeabodysLoosePants · 12/07/2019 09:59

@GirlRaisedInTheSouth I'm open to suggestions and I'm sure others would be too so please share any you think would be good.

HandsOffMyRights · 12/07/2019 09:59

Thanks for the reminder.

I have a feeling I may see some of these en route to holiday this year.

And knowledgeable face- did you know there is a very long tradition of defacing money for political ends - there were a lot of old pennies about with ‘votes for women’ stamped on them 100 years ago. I’d love to find one. Here’s one from the British Museum

Women don't have penises
Justhadathought · 12/07/2019 10:02

Transwomen should be treated like women in all circumstances because they are not men. Is that clear enough?

Is this one of those automated trolling accounts. It is certainly like a spoof.

JessicaWakefieldSV · 12/07/2019 10:04

A man is an adult human male. Transwomen are male, so by definition, men.

GirlRaisedInTheSouth · 12/07/2019 10:04

@DtPeabodysLoosePants I am having a think...

Keep penises OUT of women-only spaces!

With a link to somewhere that coherently sets out the arguments against self-ID.

By the way, loving the penny idea. Is there a way that we could do that?

littlbrowndog · 12/07/2019 10:04

Welllllll some of them circumstances might be a wee bit of a problem

Thinking of smears and that sort of stuff

littlbrowndog · 12/07/2019 10:04

Just saying

Justhadathought · 12/07/2019 10:05

I don't hate women. I just don't hate transwomen. Sorry that I can't be in your cool kids gang as a result

Love/hate; Right/wrong; Left/right.....if only life was so simple instead of so damn nuanced.

JessicaWakefieldSV · 12/07/2019 10:07

Not wanting men getting changed next to you is not hate. What a terrible misogynistic thing to say.

BernardBlacksWineIcelolly · 12/07/2019 10:10

well if rapists with penises are women, then how do you know you're not a man?

I'm not sure if I'm a man or a woman either. I did ask last night for some help figuring it out but you ignored me PetrolBastard Sad

NotBadConsidering · 12/07/2019 10:10

Just catching up on this thread but

don’t misfeminist me made me 🤣🤣🤣

Great thread. People like PetrolBastard arguing about being called a man, when they can’t even define it! LOL.

BernardBlacksWineIcelolly · 12/07/2019 10:12

come on 'Sex is more complicated than you think' ! I've got my eye on that perry that Sophocles rejected

Oil you, get back in line! Grin

I'm still waiting for the answer to how we are supposed to tell the difference between a trueandhonest transwoman and a dirty pervert who wants to get his jollies by (for example) flashing his knob at young girls in the changing room.

Justhadathought · 12/07/2019 10:18

Petrolhead is definitely a spoof account. I've seen them before. They simply can't do nuanced discussion or direct response.

The obvious solution to the toilet issue is for third spaces And if that is a no-goer then those women that feel comfortable in mixed sex facilities should be allowed to go ahead and use men's toilets and changing rooms. it might even take some of the pressure off women's toilets with their long queues.

That is if they are really happy with the idea, other than just saying they are in a theoretical way.

This would also make it far more comfortable for trans people to use the toilet/changing room and feel safe too - as it would no longer be an all male environment.

The notion that men should be allowed to use women's facilities just because they feel they are women, and so presumably feel threatened in men's toilets/changing rooms - seems not apply the other way around. It seems not to matter at all if women feel uncomfortable or threatened by men in women's facilities. The feelings and comfort of women matters little.

I think the answer is, and this is just a wild guess, 'I don't give a shit'.

JessicaWakefieldSV · 12/07/2019 10:19

flashing his knob at young girls in the changing room.

That actually happened to me when I was 8. But maybe I was just a young bigot and shouldn’t have assumed he was a man or ran and got help. I should have stayed to see what happened, probably nothing right? A bigot at 8. I’m so ashamed.

PetrolBastard · 12/07/2019 10:20

Sorry, I'm afraid I sleep at night!

How can you tell the difference between a transwoman and a pervert? Is this the start of some terribly un-PC joke?

2BthatUnnoticed · 12/07/2019 10:20

Petrol out of interest (and not being snarky, promise), by shared spaces have you experienced only public toilet facilities and changing rooms? I.e. spaces you could leave, if you ever felt uncomfortable.

As opposed to being in refuges, shelters or prisons.

GirlRaisedInTheSouth · 12/07/2019 10:22

Yes, maybe they could reclassify the 'Disabled' toilet to include trans people that don't want to use the toilet assigned to them on the basis of their sex.

Grimbles · 12/07/2019 10:23

What @Justhadathought said.

I always ask women who say they dont mind a penis haver using the ladies why they themselves dont use the gents if it's no big deal.

Yet another question that never seems to be answered Hmm

BernardBlacksWineIcelolly · 12/07/2019 10:24

I think the answer is, and this is just a wild guess, 'I don't give a shit'

I tend to assume that the real hardliners have a male in their life who is pressuring them to collude in their fantasy of being being female. although I find the genderist fundamentalists deeply annoying, part of me feels we should be staging an intervention

if someone cares about you, they don't pressure you to believe things that can't possibly be true

littlbrowndog · 12/07/2019 10:24

No petrol that was a question at you not a joke. Cos some things we need to know and you have the knowledge

And you need to quote whole sentence not just what you said cos you twisted it tbh

DtPeabodysLoosePants · 12/07/2019 10:25

Female symbol with added V for veritas.
