@MrsOvertonsWindow where did I call her a troll? Again, someone blatantly making things up about other posts that are just not true. Hope that bandwagon takes you were you want to go

Oh no - not more squirrels? Grin Grin

If any of my sheeple are free, we could maybe do a little cud chewing over here:

(I know, I’m mixing my animal metaphors but I don’t really give a shit about mammals when there are fish to observe!)

MrsOvertonsWindow · 03/10/2022 22:27

Yes* *TheClogLady. The most recent revelations on that thread really are unbelievable. And it's so helpful that despite the usual deleting of social media that happens, some clever sheeple have archived the evidence.

TheClogLady · 03/10/2022 22:49

Archiving really is important isn’t it? It would be so easy for people just to pretend they never said stuff if we didn’t have documents or recordings.

Here’s Eddie telling Joe Rogan that Eddie’s solution to the toilet problem is jettisoning single sex spaces, tough shit what you want, wimms!

Trollcity · 03/10/2022 23:08

Talking about shit, how was he allowed to make the question about women not being comfortable with having creeps in their bathrooms to women not wanting to poo in the same space as men? Bringing romans and then black baseballers into it too?

And typical politician tactics at the beginning and end when completely avoiding giving his opinion on TW in female sports?

You've got to admit, that's a talent that only politicians excel at to such a level and actually get away with it.

"Unisex toilets stop bullying in schools"

I'd love to see the (non-existent) evidence for this.

TheClogLady · 04/10/2022 13:12

Eddie’s facial expressions while discussing toilets are rather, how should I phrase this…

unladylike

Bloody hell this is awful.

ImherewithBoudica · 04/10/2022 13:25

The total lack of compassion and care for female humans is stark isn't it?

All those years wittering on about Labour credentials, cool and groovy, how society needs to be diverse and inclusive and all the rest of it?

Paper thin veneer. The second a vulnerable female needing provision gets in the way of male desire? It's jettisoned on the spot.

Signalbox · 04/10/2022 13:34

Comparing women sceptical of “progressive” trans policy that will affect them to racists who didn’t want black people to play baseball. What an entitled prick.

His dislike of women is pretty clear.

Live4weekend · 04/10/2022 13:41

So my daughter might get raped in the mixed sex toilets, but it's OK. She hasn't had to queue as long.

Eddie, why did I never even consider it.......

Problem solved.

Gender neutral please . Fuck women's safety

The interviewer understands much better than EI! He has vague stories and no facts. It's all wonderful in his cloud cuckoo land.

ReneBumsWombats · 04/10/2022 13:59

Once you've decided you can colonise womanhood literally because you want to, what can anyone say to dissuade you? Eddie's wants are literally all that matter and anything that goes against them is like racism.

When black people fight for their rights, Eddie, they aren't fighting to be called white.

Thanks very much. These stats are very stark:

Comparisons of official MOJ statistics from March / April 2019 (most recent
official count of transgender prisoners):
76 sex offenders out of 129 transwomen = 58.9%
125 sex offenders out of 3812 women in prison = 3.3%
13234 sex offenders out of 78781 men in prison = 16.8%

If I've understood correctly:

Of all the women in prison 3.3% were sex offenders

Of all the men in prison 16.8% were sex offenders

Of all the transwomen in prison 58.9% were sec offenders

That's a staggering statistic.

I'm not going to immediately jump to the conclusion that these offenders identify that way in order to get easier access women, but surely there is some correlation (on a psychological level?) between men who simultaneously hate yet want to be women?

Joe Rogan is actually uncancellable at this point (it’s been tried, he has lots of guests from all over the political spectrum so upsets everyone, although his own views are mostly sensible centre-left with a bit of covid vaccination skepticism, not unusual amongst world class sports types).

Jo is a bros bro sports type so his language might annoy feminists at times but he saw the issues with trans rights affecting women early due to Fallon Fox (transitioned male MMA fighter). He still seems to just about hang on to the ‘true trans’ narrative - he’s interviewed Blair White and Megan Murphy (twice). I reckon Joe would love Helen Joyce and Posie could probably haul him up to the top of the mountain on this issue, so to speak.

Joe’s platform is enormous. That Eddie clip has 1.5 million views.

I’ve not listened to Joe in a while, his episodes are often 3 plus hours long so good for road trips or while doing DIY/gardening etc. I should probably go to Spotify to see who he’s spoken to lately.

some people will say you can catch cooties from Rogan (he’s had multiple episodes with Jordan Peterson, Ben Shapiro and some of the covid vaccine skeptic docs) but he’s really talented at asking Everyman questions of a wide range of guests, from comedians to theoretical physicists.

he deffo doesn’t seem to like Eddie much. Might go back and see what the episode length is… it always seems a bit sus when they are shorter than 3 hours!

Ooh. Just under! Not enough to mean anything 🤣

I couldn't get through it. He's bloody incoherent. 'There are stats, no I don't know where from. I just know.'

Does he seriously think that boys in girls toilets leads to less bullying??

If he goes up against anyone who has even the slightest information about any of this, he's fucked.

Datun · 04/10/2022 16:13

Sorry Zonder, I quoted your post because I agreed with it, and then didn't actually say so!

HeadAboveHeadBelow · 04/10/2022 16:18

TheClogLady, yes totally agree re Joe Rogan
.I like him, he seems to have integrity and I dont think he was impressed with Eddie's surprisingly inarticulate arguments. When Eddie said something about live and let live, and JR said yeah, absolutely, as long as your not interfering with other people's lives right? I thought he was having a little dig there 😆

No policy devised in the shadows can survive in the sunlight. It won't pass any better than Eddie does.

Fizbosshoes · 04/10/2022 19:30

He just came saying
"It's just easier for everyone..." (unisex toilets)

When what he meant was
"Its just easier for men"
....who don't need their toilet habits made easier! They always are!!
