I realise that I'm probably going to be shot down for this but here we go.

I have been having some disagreements with a semi close friend about trans issues recently.
For context I grew up in West Hollywood which is the lgbtq epicentre of LA so grew up around queer and trans people all of my life while also being a bisexual woman.

Recently my friend has come up with some pretty transphobic opinions about gender and when I lightly confronted her about them she just said It was her form of feminism. Am I in the wrong for being offended or am I right?

@R0wantrees

Ahh, now I see how it works!

Plaicemarking as I can't.

R0, click on the three dots or whatever you normally use to access the set of options where the report function is and you should see it there.

I think the op has just been schooled.

Oi. I already made the school pun. I won't be a clownfish about it, though. I'm not a sprat.

Wow quoting. This is novel.

Will take some getting used to.

RIP the asterisk

Good cod, all this punning is giving me a haddock.

TalkingtoLangClegintheDark · 26/05/2020 21:28

Quote function!!!

Oh. My. Cod.

sourdoughismyreligion · 26/05/2020 21:29

This puns are a big pile of carp.

I dont think you can edit someone’s quote, so I don’t think you can agree with one thing they say and ignore the resr

And you don’t seem to be able to quote someone if they are already quoting someone else

I think...

I know! Now if they would just let us edit our posts.

@FloralBunting

Oooh, fish puns on the fly. Is that what's on the line here, chums? Is levity inappropriate? I wonder what would tip the scales. We could keep going to the end of thread and see if we could fillet with fishy humour. But it would only really catch the imagination if we could organize the last post as

FIN.

Oh Floral, I don’t think this is what the OP was angling for, but women like you are what makes this such a great plaice ❤️❤️❤️

Maybe the realisation is making her a bit green around the gills.
