80 year old woman banned from pool for standing up for little girls

This poor woman dedicated her life to defending women and girls. She heard a male voice while in the shower at her local pool, looked out and saw a TW changing near 4 or 5 little girls while staring at them. She stepped in, asked if the TW had a penis, and got banned and the pool staff threatened to call police on her. They lied and said she said all kinds of profane things. This is so disgusting. I feel so bad for her.

Didimum

You use word salad in order to make yourself neutral on this board but all it does is show your true colours. You just play passionate posters in order to report them and get them deleted.

You always prioritise males especially males who have she/her pronouns. You view them as a minority and conveniently forget they are male when faced with facts.

I see you Didimum as so does everyone else.

Alright. Cool. Bye.

CrossStichQueen · 17/08/2022 23:30

Oops has the mask being removed?

Bye Didimum.

Hardly a prolific poster. I’ve commented on perhaps 3-4 posts in this section total.

Threads, not posts. At some length, derailing those threads.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 17/08/2022 23:43

Because I think it is.

That's nice. Male rights apologism on the feminist board isn't exactly novel.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 17/08/2022 23:44

Illicit and elicit have quite different meanings, btw.

The Port Townsend speech clip is absolutely awful

trying to get your message access by shouting at an elderly woman, tearing down a suffragette flag and assaulting a woman through the legs of a man is not the way to go about it

Report from a journalist who was at the protest - they had to call 911 because the police withdrew early on & the TRAs were being literally violent.

You know, the real sort of literal violence with the physical assaults; not any of the tortured [re]definitions that mostly boil down to people considering reality an affront &/or being outraged at women having opinions, much less daring to express them.

Musomama1 · 21/08/2022 08:05

They are more likely to be really violent in the US, they turn everything up to 11 over there. This goes for their mysogyny too. Loads of dudes that hate on wimmin, even 80 year old women. Reminds me of the Wi Spa footage.

It's going to make it really hard and intimidating for women to stage their protests unless they have strength in large numbers and a really strong police presence.

How on earth did we get here.

Treaclemine · 21/08/2022 08:41

The police withdrew?

YetAnotherSpartacus · 21/08/2022 09:03

Well, it beats grabbing a club and helping the men bat up the women. :(

I wonder just how many men are in this because it is a socially acceptable excuse to beat up women and other minorities they are prejudiced against?

What was with the bearded guys 'hang baby' t-shirt anyway? He didn't look like a traditional leftie TRA supporter.

“Woman peeps through shower curtain and demands to see another woman’s genitals, then is banned from the changing room” is not the hot take they think it is.

334bu · 22/08/2022 16:44

Naked woman peeps out of shower and sees a man in women's shower,changing area watching young girls undress and the first thing she says to the man is " flash your penis" Aye right as my granny used to say.

“Woman peeps through shower curtain and demands to see another woman’s genitals, then is banned from the changing room” is not the hot take they think it is.

And that is why people don’t really consider you any kind of judge of a safeguarding situation, and have repeatedly said so.

So you think she is wrong? And it's a-ok for this nonce to be supervising young girls getting changed? You are a joke mate.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 22/08/2022 17:30

No one demanded to see any woman's genitals. HTH.

Man's genitals, and she didn;t ask to see them.

It's been well established that the "other woman" was a fully intact male. So this was in fact a naked 80 year old WOMAN, identifying that a MALE could see her naked in the womens changing rooms and was helping young girls to get dressed.

Do you think that women should have to accept that any male can see her naked without her permission? Can you think of other scenarios where scantily clad males would be asked to supervise and assist naked female children and parents would be expected to be happy about it?

ScaryFaces · 22/08/2022 19:29

I'm sorry but why on earth is it surprising someone got banned for demanding information about a fellow customer's genitals. Obviously that is not okay.

Is it? So if someone is flashing their genitals, we are just to 'look away'?

Is it rude to check on the welfare of children? To implement safeguarding policies? I mean, that's practically accusing people of all sorts of stuff, isn't it?

If she was “flashing her genitals” why did the old woman ask to see them? There was only one person violating peoples’ boundaries.

FatAgainItsLettuceTime · 22/08/2022 20:34

"There was only one person violating peoples’ boundaries."

Except there wasn't.

There was the male in the womens changing room. The male who completely disregarded all the women and girls boundaries to not show their naked body to male strangers.

Also she asked if they had a penis, not if they could show her their penis. Big difference.

Helleofabore · 22/08/2022 20:41

Again dadjoke, there is a good reason nobody who knows your posting history would think you know anything at all about safeguarding children or women.

You're not sorry at all.

She demanded to know what a man was doing in the womens changing rooms amongst half naked girls and women. What precisely is wrong with that?

TheWeeDonkey · 22/08/2022 21:05

This is the paradox innit.

Males belong in women's spaces, if you see something that makes you feel uncomfortable just tell the relevant people.

If you tell the relevant people that there are males in women's spaces making women feel uncomfortable then you are the problem and you need to be silenced.

It's like the narcissists prayer on crack.
