Not having sex with someone because they don't have the right genitals is transphobic. No prizes for guessing who's claiming this

[Doyoumind]

RM is busy trying to justify their support for a particularly unpleasant tweet yesterday. For those of you who are blocked, I'll add some grabs.

One way and another the thread seems to now be on the subject of men who apparently only care about stuff that affects men. I wonder if DrH will realise why he's suddenly not in line with DrMcK?

That's not how I read it at all.

I read it that pp was praising her young relative for being aware that men have an easier social ride though life than women (due to general patriarchal society).

You have to be looking hard to turn that into a maliciously written, out of context, gleeful jibe about male suicide.

I’m just waiting for the ‘I’m a real doctor’ comment and the fur will fly!

Ok, I'm wrong. Men are killing themselves in droves because life is just too easy...

Do you not understand the difference between words like "easy", "easier" and "easiest"?

Learning that would greatly help your comprehension of what is being said.

Ok, I'm wrong. Men are killing themselves in droves because life is just too easy...

But women try to kill themselves as often, if not more often, than men. Men choose more violent methods so succeed more often.

Male suicide is a topic that you might want to bring up with other men, where you may influence things for the better. It is not a subject for you to use as a goad or a gotcha to rape survivors on a board intended for feminists to converse with one another.

HTH.

Thanks @BuzzShitbagBobbly that's exactly what I was saying and I think that was clear to almost everyone.

It's exhausting isn't it. It's quite impressive the wilful refusal to show any empathy.

Anyway, I'm off to see my a few of my equally wonderful boy and girl cousins now and looking forward to having a lovely evening with them

And thanks @LangCleg too, hoping they missed me mentioning that previously on here because I don't want to have that experience belittled so thought best to assume that some people saw the sad irony in it too

I’m just waiting for the ‘I’m a real doctor’ comment and the fur will fly!

Well this isn't a thread derailment or anything. I thought this was about RM and their everyone must be coerced into sex with me comments?

And this from Lang should be the end of that little spin off

But women try to kill themselves as often, if not more often, than men. Men choose more violent methods so succeed more often.

I am at peak Mckinnon in fact beyond the peak, I am over them. Still carry on showing the world what you really are Rach.

Not derailment at all - Well Dr someone saying to someone PhD that they are a ‘proper’ doctor therefore understands the whole biology thing...

Comedy gold.

Has Naomi worked it out yet?

Yeah! Let's have a thread about male suicide. Um somewhere else though - this ain't it.

I was just coming on to say what a disappointment Naomi is proving to be. But you guys beat me to it.

And bloody Lang beat me to my excellent point about the derail too. Grrrrrrr.

Stop being so efficient.

Everyone, it's okay, Rachel is now accepting apologies. There is proof posted on Rache's twitter that someone else at some time also thought sexual preferences were transphobic. So obviously because it's printed in a book it's correct.

You can form a queue.

They do know that they can’t bully the world into wanting to have sex with them don’t they?

"I will accept apologies"

Self entitlement level: RM

You could not write this shit!!!

Any apologies yet?

I'm almost surprised that it wasn't written with a royal we. "We will accept apologies"

Apologies so far: None that I can see. Just an angry email from presumably a gay man who has complained about Rache calling gay and lesbian people 'immoral'. He maybe hasn't seen the memo, though.

How can I apologise

Am blocked 😂😂🤣🤣

No, sorry but this has to be the best yet. What the hell is RM identifying as now?

Oh, what a coincidence that Rach is planning a sabbatical. Bet it's completely nothing whatsoever to do with all the complaints their employers has been getting.

Btw - of the current 6 replies, guess which one was deboosted and hidden under the 'more replies' button...

Can you imagine working with this person?

Does this college/uni/youth training scheme nor have a social media policy?

Two interesting things for me from this episode - I was trying to find out more about asexuality, which I don't understand. I read this article and I now REALLY don't understand.

Also immensely heartening to see Dr Harrop thinking carefully, comparing TRA statements with his own experience and disagreeing with Dr RM. I wonder if it might lead to further critical thinking; hope so.
