Accidentally started a bun fight

And was overrun by handmaidens Hmm - All, why can’t you just be NICE. All because I don’t want males in female changing rooms. Idiots.

Being 'nice' won't shield women from being targeted by predators and perverts. Sensible laws and policies will help to a good extent even if they are not 100% foolproof.

My response would of been 'I'm not here to be nice. I'm here to protect women and girls rights.' Smile

Kit19 · 28/11/2019 15:49

It genuinely pains me to see the number of women who think the answer to having their boundaries pushed back further & further is to be nicer

I was amazed at how many were desperate to throw women under the bus.

I’ve encountered loads of those on line
They believe in “be inclusive” and anyone who doesn’t comply is an enemy. The truth is uncomfortable for them. They are brainwashed.

I actually left the group as I couldn’t be arsed arguing with a bunch of handmaidens. I’m sure they’ll take that as a ‘win’ but honestly they were ridiculous.
Tripping over each other to declare that THEY didn’t mind sharing spaces.

I quite like the argument that my rights are not yours to give away.
Some women don't see the problem until they experience why it's a problem for others.

If you insist on dismissing women with opinions different to your own as "handmaidens" I don't think you can claim that it was "accidental" that you caused a bunfight.

iklboo · 28/11/2019 16:52

I wonder how many of them would actually be comfortable with a man in the female changing rooms.

Sexnotgender · 28/11/2019 16:57

I probably should have known there would be a pile on though.

Earlier today someone asked about a minimiser bra for their child, more than one suggested a fucking binderAngry the kid was ELEVEN.

"I failed female socialisation. I see you passed with flying colours."

FuriousAndFrustrated · 28/11/2019 17:03

I feel your pain.

I had exactly the same last weekend with a facebook post I shared. Ended up with one of wokesters threatening to report me to my employer's HR dept for contravening social media policy (I did a thread about it last night).

I had a man on there say "Where should trans women go then? They’d likely receive more hostility using male bathrooms, changing rooms etc"

My reply that it's a problem in male behaviour that needs to be addressed wasn't appreciated.

And it's that whole "well I'm ok with men in the ladies so there" approach which winds me up. Guess what sunshine? I'm not happy at all, and you cannot consent on behalf of other women.

I ended up deleting the post and I'm sure they'll consider it a win but I'm still utterly furious.

ErrolTheDragon · 28/11/2019 17:35

They're not being 'nice' to the women and girls who aren't ok with males in women's facilities. Why not?

Sexnotgender · 28/11/2019 17:40

I also got the transwomen aren’t safe in male changing facilities argument Hmm not OUR problem to solve.

I don’t do ‘nice’. I’m too long in the tooth to give a shit. ‘Nice’ in this context means ‘shut up you bitch doormat and let the boys have it their way’.

ErrolTheDragon · 28/11/2019 22:40

I also got the transwomen aren’t safe in male changing facilities argument not OUR problem to solve.

Maybe you could point them to Miranda Yardley and Fionne Olanders petition (you should be able to find a link on the Petitions board) - TW trying time solve the problem without impacting women.

ludog · 29/11/2019 09:24

I've been blocked countless times on twitter for suggesting that male on male violence is not the responsibility of women.

Furious - I bet your post has had more impact than you realise - may well have been read by people who didn't wish to comment, but took your arguments on board for further consideration.

SapphosRock · 29/11/2019 11:21

I really dislike the term handmaiden. To me it's as bad as the T word directed towards GC women.

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 29/11/2019 11:29

I prefer 'familiar' myself.
