#GenderWooWoo is currently running on Twitter and it's both hilarious and shocking.

This one is pretty up there

CursedE and James Billingham!Oolon/Sprout are NOT the same person. Unfortunately.

And yes, TRAs never seem to realise when they're shooting themselves in the foot, do they?

Lamahaha · 22/05/2020 13:34

@Dances just came to post that -- hilarious!

Dances · 22/05/2020 13:56

Ah sorry, I though they were sunset

It's an easy mistake to make Dances.

Oh look, Joss has screenshotted my post saying “I could play if I wanted, I just don’t want to, so there!” while claiming FWR is irrelevant to the world, but somehow still important enough to Joss to spend time monitoring it and posting shots on Twitter.

If we are so irrelevant, why does Joss hang out watching us? And why would Joss post a screenshot to make a point if it’s irrelevant? “Look how irrelevant this is everyone!” Weird.

Come on Joss, you must be bothered, you must be secretly keen to post here or you wouldn’t be hanging around watching so much repeating your most used word, “crank”. Any recipes, or are you just going to post a list of ingredients again? Cake

TheProdigalKittensReturn · 22/05/2020 22:07

Well, yes, regardless of how many times Joss has been banned I suppose Joss could indeed create a new sock.

NotBadConsidering · 22/05/2020 22:10

And @JustineMumsnet

When we talk about people vexatiously monitoring this forum and reporting users here and when we express frustration that MNHQ don’t pick up on it, this is why. And Joss’s Spoon sidekick talking about removing other people’s likes on Twitter, thus proving @Gncq ‘s post to be accurate. How dumb are they?

For people who seem so desperate to be involved in our conversations, you'd think they'd try a little bit harder to stay within talk guidelines.

But Joss would have to see us as human to do that.

BringbackLang · 22/05/2020 22:33

Oi Joss!
Evidence for for your claims or it didn't happen.

I reckon we'll waiting a very very long time...

HOLOCAUST "HILARIOUS" SAY VILE MUMSNET T*RF WITCHES

OvaHere · 22/05/2020 23:05

I love how desperate they are to convince themselves we're so irrelevant.

The interesting bit is what they're NOT talking about which is how much success we're having rooting their batshittery out of schools right now.

nauticant · 22/05/2020 23:10

Do they really think that if MN shuts up shop because of a sudden decline in advertising revenue then the gender critical cause will fade away?

That stable door is well and truly open and the horse is still galloping several fields away.

AnyOldPrion · 22/05/2020 23:11

Well Hitler was certainly right about one thing. UK feminists are unbeatable!

Keep going women. I don’t care about being a nobody. I’m one of many and we’re all pulling at once.

nauticant · 22/05/2020 23:21

They've overreached with trying to get unsafe guidelines into all kinds of institutions including schools, twisting the law out of shape, getting the police to harass members of the public, and forcing us to accept public performances of fetishes. They're beginning to realise that they should have studied the Dentons campaign guidance more carefully and been much more under the radar.

NotTerfNorCis · 23/05/2020 06:05

There is a certain TRA who never had a job even before lockdown, who lives parasitically off 'their' unhappy long term girlfriend, who admits sleeping around and cheating on her after transition, and who spends 'their' time attention-seeking, lying and gaslighting. Just be aware that if you pay that TRA attention, you are giving 'them' exactly what they want - pretty much the only thing that gives 'their' life meaning.

TheSmelliestHouse · 23/05/2020 14:05

That Hitler video is fantastic. Thank you for sharing it. I've yet to see a single transphobic post on MN. Yes questioning, thought provoking, and really interesting conversations about legality, safe guarding and women's rights but not one transphobic post.

OneEpisode · 23/05/2020 14:45

I think I must spend far too much time on Mumsnet. I’ve seen sexist, racist (travellers, for instance) ageist, transphobic. And all opposed by lots of ordinary mumsnetters and often deleted very fast. This site is very easy to access from around the world so all sorts of posters can post all sorts of things. But that absolutely doesn’t mean it is a transphobic site as a whole! And I think we do suspect some of the worst posts are planted from the US time zone when the UK mods are less resources. Planted for the screen shots.

I got a strike for recommending people watched Songs of Praise. There was a discussion of gender identity on it. Thread gone.

Wow, I missed that one. I'm guessing it was a weekend.

OneEpisode · 23/05/2020 14:59

I don’t do good threads, so I don’t think anyone really noticed! It was on FWR on a sunny day, and 19th April, so I think people had better things to do. It was quite obvious the mod thought Songs of Praise was just singing, and I was somehow objecting to singing-whilst-trans.

OneEpisode · 23/05/2020 15:03

I’ll try again. See if this survives. The Song of Praise was themed on Inclusion.

The first segment was from Strawberry Fields near John Lennon’s childhood home, now a reopened Salvation Army centre. Filmed before Coronavirus and children visiting the cafe and the gardens seems like a vision of a different world!

Then there was a very brief intro about disability. Featuring a deaf woman with a calling to preach (Methodist). Her church in Oxford is accessible to people with disabilities.

The third segment, (starting at 16 minutes) was gender identity. First a Professor (of ancient medicine) Helen King, adviser to the CoE (member of the general synod) who says government figures say
There are five hundred thousand people “living in a different gender to that they were assigned at birth”. She repeats that these are government figures.
A difficult issue for some people the bible will be fundamental. Others will read the bible in a different way.

Then Alex who aged 15 was asked to leave a church youth group after being seen holding hands with a girl. Now they have returned to the (United Reform) church, transitioned and married (a woman). Always felt different. Now a Reverend.

Then songs from 24 minutes “you’ll never walk alone” like I’ve never hear it before, and back to Liverpool, people with learning difficulties getting into employment. Finished at 34 minutes.

Hopefully better written than my old op.

CatandtheFiddle · 23/05/2020 15:37

THANK YOU for the Hitler vid: it's fabulous.

As for pretending to be pregnant by getting fat & pushing out your stomach ... It's what little children do.

That person is very very ill.

MoleSmokes · 25/05/2020 04:57

OneEpisode - thank you. Especially for "singing-whilst-trans" - always a treat!

Almost as good as Jeremy Hardy on "ISIHAC" Halo

OneEpisode · 25/05/2020 08:50

Thank you for the Jeremy Hardie, lost but not forgotten. I felt very sad for Alex, growing up in a homophobic environment, and I hope Alex has now found peace.
I was also sad about the nice lady that SoP repeatedly said was the expert advising the CofE on gender when a search revealed her to be an expert in medical history.
Sun is shining so I will go in the garden and try and play some Jeremy to cheer me up.
