Ridiculous BBC trans football propaganda

Anyone watching? I have popped in to visit my Nan and the football is on. They got some huge MTF trans person who is a referee to preach a by the numbers sermon on how it's just like the 80s and gay rights and how this person should be able to do whatever they like. Confused

its fine if they are just refereeing, surely? As long as not playing in the wrong sex class

YetiTeri · 11/02/2023 12:54

Oh come on. Women can ref men's games and men can ref women's games. There's no issue here.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 11/02/2023 12:55

I think it's fine for this person to actually be the referee but that's not all this person was talking about.

I'm just tired of being gaslighted constantly that these male people are women. Watch the segment.

rubbish to football being predominantly a mans game, its is 100% a womans game- you know the womans game was so popular that fifa had to ban it for decades to let the mans game catch up, dont you!

One of the best team games around, and this dated, sexist attitude risks putting woman off. I say women, not girls, because thankfully it is open to girls much more now than it was. My generation still suffers because of being discouraged from football 40 years ago though, and we are slowly, in our 50s, taking back what is ours by right

The TQ ideology is nothing like the 1980s and fighting for gay rights. Saying that it is, is a lie.

Human beings can't change sex. Saying that you can, is a lie.

Maybe this referee should just get on with his refereeing, and try to do that as objectively as possible, and leave the lies and extremely contentious ideological politics out of it.

AutumnCrow · 11/02/2023 13:05

they have loads of female commentators as well and to be honest they don’t know what they are talking about

You must have very intelligent conversations, the pair of you.

Exactly. Maybe the BBC should keep some semblance of impartiality given that in all polls the overwhelming majority view is that people don't support the idea of males in women's sports.

Tell that to the lionesses.
What a load of absolute shite 🙄

LiverpoolMuse · 11/02/2023 13:09

That is definitely a bloke . I’m not sure what the point is. I hope he has the decency to stay out of the single sex changing rooms. Are the BBC now showing what a travesty this trans business is.

EndlessTea · 11/02/2023 13:13

I only really enjoy women’s football.

ReunitedThorns · 11/02/2023 13:15

Referee? I thought he as a GP.

CampervanKween · 11/02/2023 13:20

I loved football as a kid. Was on the 5 a side team for my primary school, as that was the only thing on offer for girls in the 70s. Would so much have loved the opportunities now available for girls. So pleased it is gradually improving, it's a great game. I loved the Women's Euros, really nice to watch and family friendly to go to.

I don’t want all this uphill battle to get to this point to be wiped away by men identifying their way in. They already have a much better funded and more lucrative option. Leave Women's football for girls and women.

I've given up on the BBC. Asking whether the BBC has a left-wing bias is like asking whether Charles de Gaulle was French or whether the pope is Catholic. I'm a moderate centrist in my politics, but I still find it insufferable. I generally watch GB News now.

3peassuit · 11/02/2023 14:09

As long as Lucy keeps out of the woman’s changing room, Lucy can identify as Lucy wishes.

Why is it fine if they're delivering a sermon on all things trans?
Do male refs get to bore the ass off the crowd shiteing on about what's growing nicely on their allotments this season?

Hmm interesting and unusual pov to express on the feminist board of a predominantly female site.

If I were cynical I'd say that you are trying to gather screenshots for twitter to create a false narrative. Some people are absolutely desperate to pretend that the only possible beliefs are gender ideology or religious conservatism. Feminism is dangerous to both these ideologies because it wants to do away with the gender stereotypes that both trans activists and religious conservatives hold so dear.

I'm generally getting bored of these straight men being a figurehead for LGB people.

Lucy says Lucy isn’t getting any matches to referee, though. Can’t understand why.

Ridiculous BBC trans football propaganda
Theeyeballsinthesky · 11/02/2023 14:31

Goodness me Lucy has managed to get Lucyself a little of coverage in the last few years

but yes it is propaganda- allowing ppl to stand up and say unchallenged that’s it just like gay rights is propaganda

i very much doubt Lucy self is gay as they are still married to their wife

Theeyeballsinthesky · 11/02/2023 14:31

Lot of not little!!

FebName · 11/02/2023 14:33

To be honest don't give a shit how Lucy dresses and calls themselves as long as they are a good and fair ref. And as long as they keep the fuck out the ladies changing room.

Can't be assed watching the interview with him though.

puffyisgood · 11/02/2023 14:40

didn't watch the feature but I've seen this Lucy person before. built like a brick outhouse (#10 in this clip). fond of playing matches against all-female teams whose players are 20+ years his junior.

Melroses · 11/02/2023 14:48

That always reminds me of Competitive Dad from The Fast Show.
