Shall we all self id as men?

[PamDenick]

If all the craziness continues, why don’t we all self ID as men? We don’t have to DO anything. We can dress how we want, be brave and beautiful, join the Masons (whoopee) and this would expose the madness for what it is...

[Fearandsurprise]

If you do want to adopt male or unisex clothes (of course, I’m not saying you need to in order to be a man), there are some great options:

• traditional full length Arabic dress,
  
• Fijian sulu skirts,
  
• Malaysian sarongs,
  
• Chinese changshan,
  
• Kilts

love this thread

[Tolleshunt]

I’m definitely looking forward to the 20% pay rise, while trading doing any actual work at work for 20% work and 80% bullshitting.

[RaininSummer]

I would love it if we all did this to show how bloody ridiculous self is is.

[Toseland]

Hooray! (I’ve been wondering this for a while and I have a stick-on moustache handy.)

[TedsFederationRep]

Never mind mansplaining. Will I be able to master manlooking - you know, look in a cupboard for a tin of baked beans and if it isn't directly in front of me (because it's on the bottom shelf, behind the soup) have a strop about it because we haven't got any?

Honestly, it would save so much time.

[PamDenick]

Oh yeh. Man looking. Quite often it involves keys, doesn’t it?

[PamDenick]

Rainin it would have to be a collected effort.

[PamDenick]

Collective.

[ShiveringCoyote]

Oh me as well. Looking forward to being listened to in meetings.

[risefromyourgrave]

Oh I am 100% in all seriousness going to do this if they allow self ID. Every changing room, every toilet (although I’m hoping they don’t smell as bad as male toilets at school did!) and every time I need to try on clothes.

[PastMyBestBeforeDate]

Oh cracking. I work in a man job and I know loads about Rugby Union, cricket (yay SB) and engines. I don't do dresses.

[PastMyBestBeforeDate]

DH has also offered to identify as female in a previous FWR rant of mine so we're all sorted here.

[thehumanformerlyknownasfemale]

I think we should identify as men that identify as women. We'd have an army of defenders behind us then, ready to shut down the bigots who dare doubt our oppression or tell us we're not valid as women

It's the answer to all our prayers, I'm telling you.

Are there still any posh men's clubs? Now they will be open for us.

[Margotshypotheticaldog]

I have short hair and wear trousers, so I'm definitely already living my life as a man. It's all about the costume really isn't it? and I'm notorious for not being particularly nice to people. When people accept I'm actually a man, they won't even notice this though as it will no longer be expected of me.

[PamDenick]

Will definitely do this. And no woke 20 year old, or BBC researcher can’t tell us that we are anything but brave and beautiful.

[nepeta]

I don't wear spinny dresses, ever. No dresses at all for at least ten years. I have very short hair. I have pockets. And any makeup I buy always goes old before it is used up.

I am a man, hear me roar.

Shows how times have changed here. I suggested this a year or so ago and got deleted and a warning.

@PamDenick

Hair dye is cheaper

We won't need hair dye as we'll all be sexy silver foxes!

[PamDenick]

Wow! That’s outrageous.

[PamDenick]

Didn’t the Hampstead swimming women try to do this?

[backseatcookers]

@Goawayquickly

I’m in, I’d get an inch off my hair for a tenner rather than £50.

This is SO true!

[backseatcookers]

I've shared this quote before but... oh to have the confidence of a mediocre man.

So yes, I shall self ID and feel confident as fuck no matter what my actual abilities / knowledge / kindness are.

[Margotshypotheticaldog]

I'm a total Silver fox and I love coffee, So I'm living my life as George Clooney,not just some average ordinary man
