Not only for people from the rUK but from other countries as well it seems:

100% cannot tell if that is satire or not, puffy.

All those transwomen with man-sized hands are going to need bigger Fair Isle knitted gloves to keep warm in the Scottish winter, therefore creating employment for traditional crafters. Nice work, Nicola.

yeah, I'm not sure what there's anything really sensible that I can say about it.

Well yes, I imagine having extra strong women with big hands will be very helpful for the sheep rearing and highlands life

Big hands are definitely not an advantage when you've got a tricky lambing! Smaller the better, at least from the sheep's point of view...

Scotland and the rest of the UK have a long way to go before being safe for transpeople.

A British transwomen was given asylum in NZ where she will be safe.

I suppose that's correct if your definition of unsafe is nasty words (as opposed to, say, going around without a headscarf in Iran)

HootyMcboob Damn straight. Exactly this.

Yes many will move to scotland as England is becoming a hate full place to many diff minorities with cruella saying she has a dream to send people to Rwanda it’s like we gone 1930s Germany. Maybe all the nasty people that hate trans people should move out of scotland if they don’t like how progressive it’s becoming?

Why should I uproot my kids and myself and move away from my parents because the country I have lived all my life has been captured by dangerous gender twaddle?

failing to adequately protect females is not “progressive “ nor is permitting vulnerable under 18s to partake in GR practices

bellinisurge · 31/10/2022 14:14

1930s Germany. Jesus wept! Do you even hear yourself.

Stop. Appropriating. The. Holocaust.

RufustheFloralmissingreindeer · 31/10/2022 14:24

How DARE you tell people to move because they don't subscribe to your gender fairy ideology

exactly

If you don’t like it leave the county gets said a lot by certain people, was all over the brexit threads for example…and ‘political’ threads 🤔

puffyisgood · 31/10/2022 09:52

on the positive side, recent footage from the Scottish ladies' Premier League is suggestive some exciting, high scoring games ...âš½

How the fuck can someone be proud of that

RufustheFloralmissingreindeer · 31/10/2022 14:24

How the fuck can someone be proud of that

hard to say. the fat #10 looks like he could probably play a bit, 20+ years and 20+ kilos ago; and the #17 looks young and slim enough to be dominate at this level despite probably never having been good enough to play for a men's team; but the others look like complete nonentities by men's football standards, not fit, not good, not young, but just, with a couple of better players alongside them, able to steamroll a bunch of girls who are just playing for laugh and who probably barely average even 100 hours of playground football experience per head.

RufustheFloralmissingreindeer · 31/10/2022 19:55

Reminds me of the ‘friendly’ match at the end of the 8 year olds football training season

a bunch of dads tackling 8 year olds, scoring obscene amounts of goals and then strutting round the pitch like they’d actually won something

fucking embarrassing

its like when my dad was chuffed when he beat ds1 at chess…ds1 was 6!

So much hysteria about all of this.

www.transactual.org.uk/facts-about-trans

Those aren't facts so what is your point?

HootyMcboob76 · 31/10/2022 21:44

Brokendaughter · 31/10/2022 20:47

Those aren't facts so what is your point?

Yes.
And two out of those 14 or 15 "facts" on the list are STILL harping on about "intersex" people.
Honestly, don't these people have any other arguments?

"BEcause........intersex!!!!"

So fucking boring.

I'm surprised seahorses and clownfish aren't on the list.

Xenia · 31/10/2022 21:47

I don't support Scotland changing its laws and I was glad when PM Theresa May decided not to change the laws in England on this. I am sure sense will ultimately prevail.

HootyMcboob76 · 31/10/2022 21:55

That website linked above is a fucking racist homophobic mess. Seriously, read some of it.
It also talks about "transphobes" "deliberately endangering the lives of young trans people and children".
Oh, hang on........is it US who want to halt their puberty, lop off their healthy body parts, tell them they are in the wrong body and pump them full of dangerous chemicals that will impact their whole future life? My mistake.

"Man", "Woman" and "Non-binary person" are social/cultural statuses. Trans people have existed for millennia throughout history and in every part of the world. Consequently, trans people have as much right to claim their genders based on biology or otherwise as cis people do"

Biology denial at its finest.
And utter bollocks.

Man and woman are social or cultural? How many men are on the labour ward? How many women are in the prostate cancer ward?

If you're going to try to pick a website to support your claims, try not to pick one that makes you (and them) sound like deranged lunatics.
