Banned from women-only FB group

A trans woman edited by MNHQ because OP is using second language posted in a women's only FB group wanting free emotional labour and "validation" from untrained women to help them with getting over their abusive ex boyfriend.

I stated it wasn't appropriate to ask untrained women to take on their emotional labour, especially considering what had happened to them was so traumatic (according to them they ended up in hospital), and especially not for free and suggested they seek professional help instead.

Cue trans woman and women stating I was being transphobic, and "wouldn't understand the fear a marginalised group would go through."

I was told I hadn't been through a traumatic experience before so couldn't possibly understand what the OP was going through.

I've been banned from a group specifically designed for women. Nowhere in the post did I mention anything about the OP being trans.

I am so sick of this shit. The world has gone mad.

Nothing stunning here, over-define somewhat, no lack of self-awareness apparent,

constant belittling more false vexatious accusations.

*over-define somewhat

Earlywalker · 14/07/2019 20:21

This threads been illuminating, I agree.

Key points I took:

How when a GC woman says something, even if it completely contradicts something else they’ve said - they must be believed completely, any attempt at questioning is ‘harassment’

If a TW steers out of her lane and attempts to seek comfort from ‘real woman’ about domestic abuse, they are lying, they are probably having a wank while doing so, too.

Anyone who doesn’t swallow the agenda without asking questions or seeking clarification is a nasty woman/robots/men/TRA who is also having a wank while reading your comments Smile

Enlightening as always 👍

Earlywalker

I think that about sums it up.

RosesAndRaindrops · 14/07/2019 20:23

Lass, let's all get hobbies! I know you're really trying for a fight, but you won't get one from me sorry

Nah, it's really coming across as YOU'RE the one trying for a fight.
I'm really starting to see why you say you were banned from the group to be honest.

TruthOnTrial · 14/07/2019 20:24

Goodness me Early

Where do you get all that from, despite all the threads explanations.

So many transphobic accusations in that!

Have you called the police, you stopped just short of telling us women to DIAF there.

JessicaWakefieldSV · 14/07/2019 20:25

If a TW steers out of her lane and attempts to seek comfort from ‘real woman’ about domestic abuse,

That’s not what happened.

A transwoman went to a womens tech group and posted a graphic detailed post about abuse. Women were removed for saying it wasn’t the right group.

Stop misrepresenting the situation.

TruthOnTrial · 14/07/2019 20:26

You can see why op was banned!

What specifically?

JessicaWakefieldSV · 14/07/2019 20:27

I'm really starting to see why you say you were banned from the group to be honest.

This is just childish nonsense. I’m not sure why you feel the need to post this kind of crap.

Earlywalker · 14/07/2019 20:28

Which parts have you missed within the thread Truth?

Jessica save the faux naivety dear, she didn’t just post ‘graphic abuse’ OP said she wanted ‘emotional labour’ which meant she wanted advise and support. Yes it’s clearly not the right place for it, but we don’t know why and how desperate she was. Doesn’t excuse the accusations of her doing it because she’s got a sexual fetish ffs.

Earlywalker · 14/07/2019 20:29

What is DIAF?

RosesAndRaindrops · 14/07/2019 20:30

@EarlyWalker
That sums it up perfectly

JessicaWakefieldSV · 14/07/2019 20:31

Early you aren’t be civil or constructive so I’m just not engaging. What an unpleasant discussion this has turned into.

Earlywalker · 14/07/2019 20:32

I’ve been a lot more civil and constructive than the majority of GC posters here so I refute that accusation.

RosesAndRaindrops · 14/07/2019 20:32

Have you called the police, you stopped just short of telling us women to DIAF there

Why does it always come back to this? Why are you suggesting violent TRA etc just for disagreeing with you which people are allowed to do?
Anyone who says die in a fire is absolutely DISGUSTING and I'm pretty sure no-one on here would think that's OK (I bloody well hope not anyway!)

JessicaWakefieldSV · 14/07/2019 20:33

I learned long ago, never to wrestle with a pig. You get dirty, and besides, the pig likes it.

Doyoumind · 14/07/2019 20:34

It feels like some people are reading a completely different thread to me.

RosesAndRaindrops · 14/07/2019 20:35

This is just childish nonsense. I’m not sure why you feel the need to post this kind of crap

Said she's not giving a transwoman emotional labour
Sick of centring males
Repeatedly belittling or insulting posters who dare to disagree

Yes, I can see why. It's not childish to point that out. Just truthful.

RosesAndRaindrops · 14/07/2019 20:36

I learned long ago, never to wrestle with a pig. You get dirty, and besides, the pig likes it

Same, and so true

RosesAndRaindrops · 14/07/2019 20:39

Goodness me Early Where do you get all that from, despite all the threads explanations

It has been literally ON the thread.

Rufusthebewilderedreindeer · 14/07/2019 20:40

It feels like some people are reading a completely different thread to me

I feel like that...a lot!

littlbrowndog · 14/07/2019 20:40

Hey rose

littlbrowndog · 14/07/2019 20:41

Hey rufus. How’s things

littlbrowndog · 14/07/2019 20:41

Totally bonkers here
