The Labour Sex Fudge - a live demonstration

Talk earnestly about the importance of single sex spaces, sprinkle the word 'biology' around.

In the next breath, advise that a man with a certificate should feel free to use women's spaces.

I've got a money saving policy idea for Labour. Maybe they could just hide a yearly quota of gender certificates in chocolate fudge bars, like the Wonka golden tickets. Save loads of money on administration and no dignity lost in the process because who doesn't like a nice bar of choccy.

Is a man a woman?
Labour: No, but yes with extra steps.

It's completely unworkable. Unless it's socially acceptable to challenge someone and say "Can I see your certificate?". Which it won't be because it will be construed as harrassment, victimisation and a hate crime, no doubt.

And yet, how many times are we told that Labour was very clear that they supported single sex spaces by some posters earlier in the year? We were told we were just right wing because we pointed out the dishonest language. And yet it continues….

Thankfully LWD released their concerns that mirrored ours so those accusations seemed to have slowed.

The sex fudge continues to be a best seller though.

I remember the days when I thought politicians were clever and had knowledge of what they were talking about!

I have previously characterised Labour's approach as taking a piece of shit, wrapping it in posh paper and writing "Green and Black" on the wrapper. The only thing that has changed is that the shit is starting to leak out.

The word "gender" as used here is always the sex fudge. (Great term.)

"People born in one biological sex but now a different gender".

What does that actually mean?

That fudge slips down so easily for some groups, mainly men.
Will leave a whole load of dental work necessary for the rest of us though. Definitely need a root canal.

Good analogy.

🎶Sex fudge, sex fudge, you're a sex fudge🎶😁

@MarieDeGournay why, why, why would you put that in my head?!? It'll be my earworm for days now. Literal violence.

Here's the music video.

TBH, the ear worm is better than the mental image of a sex fudge. My brain went to an awful place, I can tell you! 😩🤣

'I apologise if anyone is offended' by having that song going round and round in their heads.😀
Textbook non-apology there eh? that 'if' is so effective...

But it was cruel of me to post that so early in the day, you'll have at least 12 hours of it now. Literal violence, as Swamphag says. I'll go and reflect on my evil ways. In the sun. With a cuppa...😉

But that's why I chose nice purple text.

@ArabellaScott and now I have a bloody eyeworm of a sweaty Tom Jones wheezing and gasping "Sex Fudge, Sex Fudge...etc" at me. I don't even know why I come on Mumsnet.

Thank you for your heartfelt non-apology @MarieDeGournay but I am still sad that you tried to erase my existence as someone who never wanted a sex fudge earworm

Sorry you feel threatened by sex fudge positivity and literal violet text in a queered font, Swamphag.

It’s beyond reason that they can’t grasp the problem with what they’re saying

Fools

There is no problem.

War is peace.

It’s currently fighting with Baby Shark and The Pink Fong Gang All Get Along for dominance in my brain so that’s mentally interesting 🤯😂

To call that a fudge is an insult to a noble product of the confectioners art. That wasn't a fudge. That was aimless blathering. BP has clearly not considered the implications of redefining sex in any way. You could sense that she had some glimmering of someting or other not being quite right, but that glimmering also, and quite clearly, slipped into her "not wanted on the voyage" suitcase as she said it.

That needs to be on a placard.

War is peace.
Freedom is slavery.
Ignorance is strength.
Read the fucking book you idiots
