Why is there such a large portion of the feminist movement so against trans culture. Trans people have been some of the biggest advocates for supporting allegedly oppressed groups. Why is it suddenly okay to for feminists (a formally oppressed group) to oppress trans people (currently oppressed group) why?

Nope

FloralBunting · 08/04/2020 21:54

Feminists don't oppress trans people.

Women are an oppressed group.

Thank you for your time.

Bla bla bla

Here you are, OP. Fill yer boots.

This again? Hmm

I can only speak for myself but I have no desire to oppress any group. However I will stand firm when ANY group fights to remove the protections and hard won rights of females.
Sadly some in the trans community and their supporters have no problem in dismissing females rights and protections so in turn they then meet with resistance from feminists.

Facts:
Humans cannot change sex.
Males cannot be female.
Females cannot be male.
SAFEGUARDING is a priority.

Never seen any trans groups supporting women and girls rights. Why would that be?

RuffleCrow · 08/04/2020 21:57

You think women are 'formerly oppressed'. I think that tells us everything we need to know about you. Hmm

AyeRobot · 08/04/2020 21:59

I never report, but blimey I did just now simply on the basis of tediousness.

Now that is funny Grin

EthelMayFergus · 08/04/2020 22:04

Spend an hour on twitter op, you'll appreciate just how much trans rights activists hate women. Really, really hate women. Why would women support them? Burnt their bridges imho.

Ruffle, I think the OP said 'formally oppressed' so I presume it's all done in black tie and dinner gowns.

MrsSnippyPants · 08/04/2020 22:05

These threads are like buses.....

FloralBunting · 08/04/2020 22:07

Not round my way they're not. Much reduced bus service - bored illiterate TRAs are much more numerous.

RuffleCrow · 08/04/2020 22:10

Yeah sorry, i have a bad habit of translating numptyspeak into meaningful English - i don't even realise i'm doing it Grin @floralbunting

FloralBunting · 08/04/2020 22:13

Ruffle, don't mind me, your point was very sound. I'm just struggling with low mood and I tend to shore it up with humour Smile

titchy · 08/04/2020 22:14

Trans people have been some of the biggest advocates for supporting allegedly oppressed groups.

Presumably OP is referring to men as an allegedly oppressed group?

Well spotted Grin

Again?

T0tallyFuckedUpFamily · 08/04/2020 22:24

Oh please. Only if they’re centred in every single oppressed group. I would roll by eyes so far back, but then I’d see my grey roots.

PositiveVibez · 08/04/2020 22:25

Hope you're enjoying your little fishing expedition OP.

Don't think you'll get anyone to bite though.

Pretty pathetic really.

T0tallyFuckedUpFamily · 08/04/2020 22:28

OP must be away to chat to his/her friends to see what else they can tell us off about, in order to make us feel angry/ashamed/bored.
