How many MNers will join me in applying for a GRC??

having read on another thread that it only costs £5 to apply for a GRC, how many MNers will join me in applying to ‘become’ a man?
one’s legal status as a mother will not change, and I’m sure we’ll all see a 20% uplift in our wages…
We might get turned down if the panel gets an inkling we might be insincere, but, for the sake of a fiver, we could swamp the application process…

He’s behind you!

I mean, She’s behind you!

ohh no. I I mean, They’re behind you!

Oh fck it. There’s a man in a dress behind you!!

Actually lol'd.

Like this idea a lot. I can afford a fiver. But I also need to find which one I want. Is it this one from Google?

What is GRC certification?

GRC certifications validate the skills, knowledge, and abilities IT professionals have to manage governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) in the enterprise.24 May 2024

Re: the pantomime/ Carey On analogy… I think maybe I’m inspired by The Two Ronnie’s ‘The Worm That Turned’ (showing age now, as do my laughter lines…

I don’t think I’m brave enough to run this campaign. Who is? Sharron Davies? Riley Gains? JKR?
on the other hand, I’m a nobody so I can’t be cancelled…

will go and ponder in the woodshed whilst wearing my DGofD.

‘Trans rights activists are campaigning for spouses to no longer have the option of exiting the marriage before the GRC is issued to their spouse.’

Why are they doing that??

You’d have to ask them why they feel they are entitled to retrospectively change a legal contract without the consent of the other party to that legal contract.

When they lobby political parties on this issue, they call the spousal exit clause a “spousal veto” and present it as the spouse having a right to stop them getting their GRC, instead of describing it accurately as the spouse’s right to exit the marriage before the GRC is issued.

JKR's got form for torpedoing bad laws. Look at the Scottish hate speech debacle.

If only for shits and giggles when you get to the one about Willyboy and the subsequent reaction 😁

You'll be needing this. Apply liberally.

Do you mean 'Scone, like it hot?'...I do when it is cheesy with a knob of butter but when it is sweet I'd prefer it cold..

Please let me congratulate you for starting it. It's a brilliant idea. Why not keep going?

I'm 65, single, FWR fan. I can spare a fiver to apply and I'm moving so my last contact with my local NHS GP surgery could be an attempt to spend £600 on a Gender Dysphoria Certificate. So far I guess I don't HAVE to change my passport/birth certificate details. (Don't want to confuse my niece/nephew's inheritance.) Legal advice appreciated.

This has to be important.

Does anyone know what happens with your original birth certificate when you get a grc, is a note made on the birth records to say that the original birth certificate is no longer valid or does someone with a grc end up with two valid birth certificates with different sexes recorded

Obvious I’m not very good at typing.

I presume extra scrutiny will now be given to applicants made after the date of this thread for a short while at least.

Unfortunately that could mean extra difficulties and delays for trans people, but perhaps that was the aim of this thread?

Errrr, you're the one who reported us, allegedly.

This would have just been a funny thread, ignored among other funny threads.

I reported this thread to them so they are aware fraudulent applications may be made.

Maybe we can FOI this report you've made to the government. I hear that's all the rage.

Fraudulent like having a baby or 2 after 'becoming a man', is that the kind of fraudulent you mean?

You have been on here for long enough to know that it is MN law that unless proof is provided, it didn't happen. And if it didn't happen, then you are a bad apple for lying.

Like that group of men in Spain did. Causing chaos.

Oh no, please realise that our self-appointed prefect can’t take the chance. I mean, who knows what this ghastly nest of vipers might achieve. What if FWR managed to convince the world that women are an actual thing that men can’t be?!

They got great benefits from doing so. Have there been any updates since March? I expect they’ve been left to get on with it.. Everyone’s a woman now. Until they go for promotion anyway.

I laughed out loud at this, it's so childish and petulant, it's hysterical. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

🤣🤣🤣🤣 like women are 🤣🤣🤣

Persimmons123 · 30/12/2024 19:46

Well, I had to have a double mastectomy, you can imagine why, so I think I should be first in line given that I’ve already started transitioning 🤣🤣

jokes aside, I’m too puritan to be able to do that, but I’ve always fantasised about going to the male changing room at the gym and strut around naked after a shower. Bet I would be reported in no time.

Went to a public / council leisure centre for the first time in ages, last week. Horrified (yet unsurprised) to find that the changing rooms and showers were only Mixed. No single sex facilities at all. 😑🤬

Persimmons123 · 30/12/2024 20:27

Wtf is that, seriously people who propose it as a good idea should hang their head in shame. That will make so many give up on going.

I wasn't indicating your OP/idea was worthy of a Carry On film rather a certain poster's over the top drama llama reaction to it.
