Feminism: Sex and gender discussions

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

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.

I mean I'm not suggesting anyone complain because, y'know, comedy gold and also, y'know, she's actually one of us right? It just seems odd they would want this...attention Confused

They've put Rachel on a sabbatical, what a surprise. Amazed anyone employed Rachel. Do they not do interviews in Canada? Are they all totally lacking batshit crazy detectors?

BarbaraStrozzi · 02/10/2019 21:51

RMK has tenure. As far as I'm aware the Canadian system is like the US system - namely, once you have tenure, you are quite literally untouchable. There is nothing RMK's employers can do. RMK can say whatever RMK wants.

ShesDressedInBlackAgain · 02/10/2019 22:02

But that is completely stupid!

Datun · 02/10/2019 22:11

But that is completely stupid!

That's what I keep coming back to. What's the point when someone uses it to boast about their untouchability? Just makes the uni look uninformed and ridiculous.

ShesDressedInBlackAgain · 02/10/2019 23:07

'Hey guys! I have this great idea! Let's create this level of employment in our hierarchy that basically means as employers that we have no recourse to accountability whatsoever!'

'Yeah dude. Cool idea.'

Confused
TemporaryPermanent · 02/10/2019 23:17

Wikipedia (I know) seems to suggest that tenure doesn't mean you're that untouchable - more that employment rights in a tenured position are more like European rights than typical US rights?

Anyway, I wouldn't like to see anyone sacked for appalling opinions expressed on Twitter. Fresh air, sunlight etc.

McKinnon is employed by the College of Charleston in South Carolina, US. I think Canada is probably glad to be shot of McKinnon.

NotBadConsidering · 02/10/2019 23:35

Is McKinnon really on sabbatical? Like when Ross was put on sabbatical after someone ate his turkey sandwich?

DuckingGoodPJs · 03/10/2019 01:14

TinselAngel got my interest up mentioning the Fragrant McK's ex-wife/rape comment.

I didn't find the original, but the screenshots here on twitter seem to capture it. Reads more like an MRA "but women rape too" rant. Funny that.

Creepster · 03/10/2019 03:35

No, sorry but this has to be the best yet. What the hell is RM identifying as now?
LGBTQA+ all at once, never mind the contradictions, RM doesn't believe in them.

TinselAngel · 03/10/2019 07:37

Thanks for finding that ducking, I wonder if the original has been taken down as I think it was fairly easy to find before (I really must start bookmarking things).

I need a strong coffee after reading this thread...goes off to bang head against the wall

Oh no it is still there

I am sometimes despairing that a lot of people don't realise the internet stores things forever.

Not today though. Its fascinating to see RM hoisting themselves in real time.

ArnoldWhatshisknickers · 03/10/2019 07:59

Christ the entitlement! Not only the ridiculous claim of rape, hint McKinnon, your ex-wife does not have a penis so she can't rape anyone, but blaming her for his depression after he lied to her about his sexual fetish.

Pillock.

TheProdigalKittensReturn · 03/10/2019 08:14

"Trying to get a queer/pan/lesbian asexual trans woman fired".

So, just to be clear, Rachel identifies as the entire rainbow alphabet? Rachel is literally everything except straight, despite having as far as anyone is aware only had relationships with women?

TinselAngel · 03/10/2019 08:44

I wonder if the "rape" was them TTC.

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 03/10/2019 08:55

One step away from announcing themselves as a god I think.

Two personalities that conflict prone were bound to end up fighting eventually.

Well well.
