Pushback at Wi Spa in Los Angeles

Well it's all kicking off at the spa. An amazing woman behind the desk standing up for women and telling a man where to take his penis. I fear she will lose her job over this but it's a glorious way to go.

So, the wokes are upset about customers ferling uncomfortable. Penis-having customers though.

They can have the spa to themselves then. But that won’t work will it - that’s not the point?

candycane222 · 03/07/2021 08:50

It looks as though some right wing (described as 'white supremacist' and indeed they may be) people are supporting the original (anti-penises-being-displayed-in-the-womens-space) protest

THEREFORE antifa are characterising the protest as 'violent extremism' and piling in on the other side.

Or something. God it's depressing.

candycane222 · 03/07/2021 08:52

"Unsafe for simply existing" is quite a go to phrase isn't it?

candycane222 · 03/07/2021 08:54

Getting my penis out in front of children = 'simply existing'

Also worth noting that the woman who complained is referred to as 'customer', 'patron' and 'person' throughout, never using the word woman for her.

Uncomfortable customers can simply walk; other spas are available, I don't doubt. If biological men want to dangle their bits in the ladies jacuzzi, let them have it.

Women aren't going to pay to sit next to male genitalia attached to a person they've never met whose motives they can't know.

Let them colonise away, but be sure they'll quickly lose interest when there are no vocal women or innocent little girls to provide the drama and thrills.

This spa has climbed a tree and is busily engaged in sawing through the branch it sits on.

California seems to be completely batsh*t crazy. Apparently lots of businesses moving to Florida. Could be taxes but I think a recognition of extremism and how harmful it is might be kicking in. How can the US compete against China and be a model for democracy when it has moved so far away from the model. I despair, I just hope it's not as bad as it looks. I really would like the US to keep its CRT and stop trying to import it into the UK

toffeebutterpopcorn · 03/07/2021 10:11

California has always had that though. My sister lived there for ages and she is now in an adjacent state. They seem to run along the lines of Kids Company (which attracts people to the state) and throw money at people rather than try to help them. It’s bonkers.

But no they can't as the law applies to every spa in the state.
It is illegal not to allow spaces segregated by sex. Like women's prisons here there is no opt out.

ArabellaScott · 03/07/2021 10:38

Really feel for anyone working at the Wi Spa. Looks like violent extremists of various stripes are organising to fight each other. Sad

toffeebutterpopcorn · 03/07/2021 10:38

Why should women have to walk? One person in that room swinging their bits and everyone else has to leave?

ArabellaScott · 03/07/2021 10:45

Actually, after a brief look at Twitter - it's been nice, not having US politics on the front page day in day out for the past few weeks - I really worry about the state of America.

Extremism, violence, ratcheting threats.

Hopefully just a snapshot that presented a skewed picture, but from here it looks like a scary place right now.

Another reason I really wish people in the UK would stop trying to import US cultural wars to UK politics (I'm looking at you, Mairi Black). It's such a different context, history, situation.

FannyCann · 03/07/2021 10:46

I really hope everyone attending the protest today is safe. The woman who complained has posted on her Instagram that a protest has been organised but she has had nothing to do with organising it and will not be there, in fact she's been advised to stay away for her safety. Antifa are organising an alternative protest so the possibility of disturbance of the peace is high.

Yes, I imagine it would be sensible to stay away. Unfortunately the staff may not have that choice, though.

candycane222 · 03/07/2021 11:02

Yup FannyCann. Horrible, isn't it?

Hasn't that happened before? TW allowed into single-sex space. Women leave. TW complains that there are no women there.
toffeebutterpopcorn · 03/07/2021 13:57

Indeed... Hmm

Olderbadger1 · 03/07/2021 14:23

So the trans rights movement now appears hellbent on protesting for the rights of people with penises to get them out in front of little girls should they wish to do so.

Right side of history my arse.

toffeebutterpopcorn · 03/07/2021 15:32

But it’s not really is it? Those pushing the agenda may well see themselves under the umbrella but they aren’t actually are they - it’s a tribe.

Any other era and a fair chunk would have been goths, emos, punks, teddy boys or rockers... or dandies... it’s ever been this but the damage being done, the rights they are taking/giving away is absolutely shocking.

OffYouGoNow · 03/07/2021 17:37

Also worth noting that the woman who complained is referred to as 'customer', 'patron' and 'person' throughout, never using the word woman for her.

Of course - all part of the strategy.

toffeebutterpopcorn · 03/07/2021 17:48

That’s the Plan though isn’t it? Refuse to refer to women as women, yet always use women in other instances.

LazyHorizon · 03/07/2021 17:56

I hope women don’t heed the TRA call and the counter-protest is seen as exactly what it is: a gaggle of white middle class men berating a black woman for raising an objection. They are all the simpering “You’re BEING a dick” intervenor. Let it be seen for what it is.

NiceGerbil · 03/07/2021 17:59

Has anyone got a link/ pic for a call for black women specifically to attend?

Because if they have it's just a massive display of male entitlement and the expectation that women are there to do what they are told.
