“'Queer Theory' arises from post modernistic ideas that there is no truth and no reality other than that which one defines for oneself.”

Is there any survey of the class background of the main queer theorists? Because being able to define reality for oneself sounds very much like a luxury belief. You need social status to be able to enforce your reality on others, plus the financial reserves to avoid having to deal with pesky realities like rent.

Then there’s the assumption that your world is a peaceful one. From personal experience, there’s nothing like a bomb going off outside your window to make you realise there is a reality that’s external to your thoughts and desires.

You’d think a nuclear engineer ought to be able to tell fantasy from reality, but hey ho.

Definitely! Queer theory is a luxury pursuit largely confined and legible only to those on American University campuses. It has no interest or formula for true social change or justice, only in personal/individualistic creation.

I'm not averse to endless repeats, not if it has the desired impact and outcome ( I used to be a teacher). Being reasonable and objective, as much as possible, in tone is important. Sometimes it is not the just the message but the way that it is delivered which can make the difference.

Persistence is key.

Yes. It is a position I used to have until about three weeks ago. This month, I am exhausted and so too I notice are many others. The years take their toll unfortunately.

It is very repetitive. And often it is the same posters or different posters but the exact same tactics.

It is exhausting Helle. Your painstaking unpicking and analysis of these misogynistic posts must take its toll.

I, for one, am incredibly grateful for your patience, and I know that as women realise what's going on, and join forces with us, more women come along curious to find out more about it.

Women who might be quite shocked at a man of Brinton's status being lauded for cross dressing, might google him and end up here. The start of a journey, which you always make more informative and illuminating.

Helleofabore · 23/02/2023 12:47

Thank you Datun. You are one of those amazing women posting on here that I am constantly reading along and nodding. That said, I did not mean to sound so exhausted that you needed to assure me. I was just pointing out just how bloody long we have all been taking turns explaining patiently with Suggestions.

It feels like we could all just go back look our previous posts up and simply repost them.

Happylittlechicken · 23/02/2023 13:02

Did we ever find out the third sex, or did the poster do a bunk?

I must say that you're better than me, as I resort frequently to sarcasm and mockery of the people making absurd, unsubstantiable claims.

I've had a shirty stroppy morning. Generally I prefer a patient, deliberate approach but I've noticed I occasionally snap and fart snipe in sheer irritation.

Brazen. Or stupid. Or convinced he was untouchable due to his specialness.

Or a combination.

Or of course, an exhibitionist, who takes pleasure in risk taking.

Oh good. Cos I wanted to blurt out, for fuck's sake please don't stop, but you know... I was worried it might sound a tad selfish 🤣

Persistence is key.

As you do seem to be on a mission to tone police all over this board@NotHavingIt do you realise just how patronising and smug you come across when you post comments such as the one above?

You speak to us as if were are still wet behind the ears on this subject.

FYI I have always been persistent and consistent and I use simple, straightforward language so the message is not lost. I do not and will not couch my words in flowery, fluffy verbiage, I will not apologise for saying the word 'No', or anything else clearly and distinctly.

There is nothing I detest more than using 20 words to say something when half that figure would be more than adequate.

I thought I was just tired over the past two days. But since this morning I have been reading that thread 'Trans and losing my mind' again ... and I was having conversations in my head about if I was misinterpreting something about the thousands and thousands of posts from patient women over the past years that have been reasonable and objective. And where 'tone' was neutral or encouraging.

I thought it was just me missing something.

Your reading is entirely your reading. Nothing I can do about that. I'm not sure why you feel the need to be so aggressive? It is abit of an unecessary and counter-productive side-line as far as I'm concerned. Skip my posts if they offend you, and I'll skip yours.

And not everything is about you. I don't think i referenced you once anywhere. in fact, i'm not even aware of you up until now.

The irony of that statement when you've been tone and speech policing across the board of late.

Aggressive - that is entirely your reading.

It is abit of an unecessary and counter-productive side-line as far as I'm concerned. Skip my posts if they offend you, and I'll skip yours.

As far as I'm concerned it is unnecessary and counter-productive for you to continually police the tone and speech of posters on this Board.

Not everything is about you either but you seem to be desperate for us all to toe your line with our words and delivery.

You think I come across as aggressive, I think you come across as patronising with an air of superiority here to tell us where we are all going wrong.

So in what way is he not a man? I’m confused. Is he just your basic common or garden knicker nicker but spices it up by claiming he’s not a man like those other bad men who steal womens underwear?

That's a model on a catwalk wearing the dress. I don't think fashion designers randomly carry around their catwalk collections, even small independent ones. So was she coming back from doing a show or going to one? Did he target her because he knew her catwalk collection was in there?

Oh hell. He totally fucked her over. She was going to an event.

Khamsin's luggage containing the outfits she has accused Brinton of being photographed in, went missing at the airport when she flew to Washington, D.C. in 2018 for an event.The outfits were meant to be on display, but Khamsin said she was not able to do the event after they went missing.from Daily Mail
