Original poster

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.

OP posts:

And obvs help out Eresh too.

Thanks

Or don't. Carry on derailing the thread. It's obvious to everyone with a brain cell.

TruthOnTrial · 15/07/2019 01:15

...and so the bizarre concluding continues...

...and the circling...

Decomposing still asserting she doesn't believe, oh but hang on, never said that, oh yes she did, oh no she didn't, oh yes she did....circling panto Grin

OP didn't lose anything nor was she disadvantaged because a transwoman was permitted to enter the group

Still posting absolute untruths!

Usual suspects

GirlDownUnder · 15/07/2019 01:15

I like this:

OP is being brigaded for her heresy.

The OP's original community got disrupted by a community disruptor.

I'm literally talking about the topic. That's not derailing.
You're right anyone with a brain cell can see exactly what goes on here.

Ereshkigal · 15/07/2019 01:16

It does come across as what I quoted as would you say that to a biological woman?

Why would you assume she wouldn't? That's all you and your friends. Totally irrelevant speculation.

RosesAndRaindrops · 15/07/2019 01:16

Crikey. I think Girl's been taken over too

GirlDownUnder · 15/07/2019 01:16

Oh, so you do see me?

RosesAndRaindrops · 15/07/2019 01:18

That's all you and your friends

Me and my friends? Confused

I've never seen anyone say to a woman abuse victim we're not doing your emotional work for you. You just need to look on MN to see people are usually (rightly) sympathetic and supportive to them.

TruthOnTrial · 15/07/2019 01:19

Isn't it trolling, I say again, to simply assassinate the OP instead of believing and answering?

Just report the OP for being a troll, and me I guess also for 'running off and dragging my mates over from another thread' !?!?!?

Ereshkigal · 15/07/2019 01:20

Don't expect an answer, Girl unless it's parroting your own words back at you, whether or not they make sense that time, in what the poster fondly imagines is a very clever gotcha.

It's a very distinctive debating strategy.

GirlDownUnder · 15/07/2019 01:21

maet Brew you might need this if you come back to this thread when you wake up

TruthOnTrial · 15/07/2019 01:21

Roses. Have you never seen MN post this type of message? To those they are suspicious of, or in order to protect all the other posters on MN from emotional manipulators and vamps who are doing it to cause distress/disruption.

Oh hang on...repeating again, as this has already been done to death

GirlDownUnder · 15/07/2019 01:23

Oh that's disappointing Eresh as Roses seemed very keen to get their 'point' across. Wink

Ereshkigal · 15/07/2019 01:24

I've never seen anyone say to a woman abuse victim we're not doing your emotional work for you.

That wasn't necessarily the words she used, she said she paraphrased in the OP, plus you have no idea whether she would say that to a woman who raised it in that setting or not (because most don't), it's just another boring derail. It's not "transphobia" to criticise an MTF trans person.

RosesAndRaindrops · 15/07/2019 01:24

Yes I have. That's not what I said though and not what the OP said that she said either.

RosesAndRaindrops · 15/07/2019 01:25

Bold fail

GirlDownUnder · 15/07/2019 01:25

Bold fail

Ereshkigal · 15/07/2019 01:26

Just fail really

Doyoumind · 15/07/2019 01:26

Still awake so came back to check. Yep still going in circles.

Not far now.

RosesAndRaindrops · 15/07/2019 01:26

No, sticking to the OP.

It's not "transphobia" to criticise an MTF trans person
I never said it was.

GirlDownUnder · 15/07/2019 01:27

Fred is almost dead - I'm not going to miss him.

FFS lol

Doyoumind · 15/07/2019 01:28

What is the value of repeating the same old assertions over and over and over? Unless it's to fill the thread.
