Does MN have a problem with trans people? **MNHQ edited title as OP has apologised for 'accusatory' tone**

[tryandempathise]

Seem to be threads constantly on the issue of trans.

Why?

Is it because it conflicts with the idea of sex as a construct?

Is it an age thing?

There must be mums on here with trans kids - do you just stay out of it?

Why the obsession with the idea of being attacked by trans women? Is it not the modern equivalent of homophobic blokes all thinking gay men want to rape them?

Originality? I thought coming right out with 'Long live the Penis' was a particularly bold move I've not seen before.

I'm delighted to see Howard Moon here in person, too.

I was wondering about the hairdresser thing. Very odd.

Wasn’t it a spoof poster? No one is genuinely that daft and ranty, surely.

If it was up to me Eyez's comment would be made into a pinned post at the top of FWR. Really helps to put things into perspective for those new to this "debate".

Eyes pretence didn't last long did it.
"Do what I say"
"No"
"A page worth of abuse will help you submit"

They never last long. They get it up quickly enough, but they can never quite maintain it before premature climax.

All hail premature proclamation!

I think we can file Eyez’s post under “she made me do it”.

#NoDebate was, in hindsight, the perfect solution. 😄

Even if it does get deleted, plenty of people have taken screenshots.

The "because we're really, really bad at it" was implied (you meanies).

Long live the penis.

Still chuckling.

Premature proclamation....such a disapointment for a girl.....sigh

Oh crikey moses, I came here to see what the "cousin" had to say and I was not let down.

Eyes, thank you for making my morning with your rant. Its a pleasure to finally meet the real you! You must be exhausted after all that effort to hide it.

Whoops, I unwittingly did the first misquote.

Tinsel,

Do we score rants round 'ere?
I'm thinking 9/10 for vitriol, 0.1/10 for impact, 10/10 for predictability.

Has to be a piss take, surely? I’ve seen many MRA/TRA rants- but “Long live the penis”? Has to be a spoof.

My finger was on the report button, and then I thought better of it. It's a classic! It must be preserved for MN posterity.

Speaking as a seasoned grandmother, who hopes not to have a naked penis anywhere near me, ever again,

I actually think there are a considerable number of male born individuals who would like to shout long live the penis from the rooftops, in an entirely un-ironic, genuine way. .

To misquote Gwendolen Fairfax: I am glad to say that I have never seen a naked penis.

Bertrand, I suspect the hail Penis cry was off the back of some of the previous posts about how some women are in thrall to the mighty cock. In that light, I suspect Eyez might have been going for jaded irony, but at the end of a post delighting in the punishment of uppity women, it was fad more revealing that that.

A naked penis. That tickled my fancy so to speak.
