Not sure I can add anything, the rediculousness speaks for itself. I think leaving us speechless is the new silencing tactic.

I'm more trans than the lot of you. I even had my willy cut off to prove it. So there.

Oh willies. Snort. I don't have a willie, and you don't see me banging on about being trans, do you?!

Sexnotgender · 14/08/2019 19:20

That’s fucking appalling!

So effeminate men and butch women are transgender? Says fucking who?

Argh, it makes me so angry. How dare they!

Deliriumoftheendless · 14/08/2019 19:25

Wow! There’s some SHOCKING Northernphobia on this thread! I need a lie down. No I will NOT discuss this with you!

@TurboTeddy

I'm clearly CrapTrans (tm) then. This week I've laid carpet tiles, hung a new door and sat on the floor in jogging bottoms and a paint splattered t-shirt eating curry. It's only Wednesday.

No heels or scones in sight -sigh- #LaydeeFail

Caaarrrl · 14/08/2019 19:29

Neurotrash

How dare you question where I live so that you can decide if I can identify as Northern?

If I feel Northern and I identify as such you are literally committing violence towards me to suggest that where I live might have any bearing on my Northernness

Michelleoftheresistance · 14/08/2019 19:35

Argh Hamster they'll be round to confiscate your badge any moment now.... I probably lost mine this morning when I bled a radiator. Instead of pretending I don't know how and fluttering at a neighbour to do it for me. Sigh. It used to be doing this stuff was just being basically independent, not a declaration of a desire to be a bloke.

If I bake a batch of scones quick do you think I'll get away with counting as NB or am I now full on Rambo on the jelly baby scale?

NeurotrashWarrior · 14/08/2019 19:40

Wow I see the NRA are out in force tonight!

(Or am I an NRA?Confused)

Deliriumoftheendless · 14/08/2019 19:42

That’s t’NRA to you!

Caaarrrl · 14/08/2019 19:47

Just out of interest neurotrash , where do you consider to be ok to come from to call oneself Northern?

morningtoncrescent62 · 14/08/2019 19:53

I feel Northern. My feelz are persistent, consistent and the other one which I can't remember (senior moment). Transnortherners are northerners THERE IS NO DEBATE.

I can tell the booklet's old because it starts by pointing out the difference between sex and gender and saying it's important. I gather that's all very yesterday - my woke colleagues keep telling me that sex and gender have now collapsed into each other, hence female penises and all that rubbish.

TheBigBallOfOil · 14/08/2019 19:57

I am actually from Liverpool. Where does that put me in the northern/transnorthern debate?
My DH as a Yorkshireman claims scousers are just northern cockneys but then he is a filthy bigot whose words are literal violence and he should probably die in a fire.

User10fuckingmillion · 14/08/2019 20:04

I think I am a NRA- I have been defending the rights of Cheshire folk to identify as northern for most of my life.

Caaarrrl · 14/08/2019 20:10

I think it should make no difference at all where you're from. If you feel Northern then you are. TNAN. No debate

TheBigBallOfOil · 14/08/2019 20:10

But if we permit Cheshire what else must we allow? Stoke? Stafford? Fucking Wolverhampton?
This madness must cease

placemats · 14/08/2019 20:11

Anyone who chooses for whatever reason to self identify as transgender.

I call this out for the obvious transphobia that it is.

It totally ignores those that suffer from gender dysphoria (and very few people do and they are most male).

And the rest of it is homophobic.

Stonewash.

lionheart · 14/08/2019 20:16

Anyone except 'Surrendered Wives' and perhaps Barbie and Ken.

Wurzelsnewhead · 14/08/2019 20:22

You’re not more trans than me, I decided not to grow a willy at all. Thankfully I also had a transclusive midwife who recognised I wasn’t in fact male as my mum had expected and assigned me female.
Confession: I do drive with just one hand on the steering wheel sometimes and beep my horn at other drivers (I know, too far). So all that forward planning and I’m still male 😳.

Wurzelsnewhead · 14/08/2019 20:23

Stonewash 😀 it’s not the blind leading the blind any more , it’s worse than that it’s the woke leading the woke.

RedToothBrush · 14/08/2019 20:25

Katy kiernan @ katykiernan
So a trans man who embraces and performs all stereotypically male roles and behaviours is not transgender, whereas I am transgender because I don't wear make up and hate romcoms.

Lily Maynard @lilylilymaynard
Good grief, you are right! By that logic you are completely right! My head is spinning

Congratulations Stonewall

Catherine Jenson @csjenson68
^So with that definition I’d be very surprised if there was anyone not transgender.
Which means we’re all transgender.
Which means Stonewall just erased transgender as a distinct group.
...erased, in a puff of logic.^

Stonewall are so transphobic.

KatvonHostileExtremist · 14/08/2019 20:35

I'm really northern but I also used the word "mate" quite a lot the other day. I feel this makes me northernfluid.
Show me some respect nerfs

RedToothBrush · 14/08/2019 20:37

I think I am a NRA- I have been defending the rights of Cheshire folk to identify as northern for most of my life.

WTF are you on about? Cheshire is in the North.

It has Roger Johnson and Annabel Tiffin. Only a true Northerner from the NW will understand what this means. What further proof do you need?

If you want an identity issue relating to geographical location then I give you people from Altrincham who put Cheshire on their address (it's in Trafford), or people from Warrington who depending on which side of the Manchester Ship Canal they come from insist on putting Cheshire or Lancashire on their address (it's Warrington unitary authority), or people from St Helens who put Lancashire (its in Merseyside).

Tsk. Where do you think Cheshire is if its not in the North? The North starts just north of Keele Services.

Deliriumoftheendless · 14/08/2019 20:39

I’m so Northern I was born at t’foot of our stairs.

TheBigBallOfOil · 14/08/2019 20:39

Where do we stand on Shrewsbury?
I say southern.

RedToothBrush · 14/08/2019 20:42

Shrewsbury is South of Keele. Its not southern though. Its in the no man's land that neither the North nor South want to claim called 'The Midlands'.

TheBigBallOfOil · 14/08/2019 20:43

I suppose that’s the equivalent of non binary.
Neither nowt nor summat.
