'Wonderful'.
He's so fucking, fucking condescending.

It's not a bug, it's a feature.

*slowly

That's not why people might think your marriage is a sham....

FFS now he's a lesbian.

NC - whatever number Y of women who use the CR and believe sex matters, you and the board willing to sacrifice the dignity and privay of women to validate your identity

BU - I can't speak for th eboard. Not sacrifice, challenge. Another group's dignity, respect, human rights, sometimes a conflict, we have to work out the best way, my belief, what you want to call it, my understanding I'm a woman and should use the women's CR, it's no different to working with a homophobe and who talks about my marriage being a sham when I say I love my wife

I hate violence but I understand why he is so fearful of his safety as anyone who has spoken to him would want to slap him!

You are not a woman married to a woman

FFS

I'm a woman married to another woman!

Just confirmed he believes he is lesbian.

And now we're onto the "homophobia" experienced by straight people of course.

O brave new world,
That has such people in't

Bingo! He's a lesbian!

Absolutely crackers.

Cuckoo Cuckoo

All of these 'insights' into sexuality can be put to his boss in the next few days I assume.

His poor wife

I had to leave for a bit. Too much.

He is just illustrating what power he has over women, as a MAN

Oh so he HAS to use the female CR

Needs validation

Won't be separated

What are these nebulous terms you use - ladies and gentleman?

To loop back to a quote before all this started today, NC must be on her 5th banana now

NC - would have bene possible to respect your privaqcy and women by you using single ocupancy

BU - not neceessarily - there's privacy of changing, there's also privacy of identity, potentially other, not a conversation I was part of. Not a decision I get to make.

I'm male and this man genuinely makes my skin crawl. It absolutely astonishes me that every single man on the planet can't see what he's up to, it is so obvious to me that is a display of male sexual entitlement and power over women.

There’s privacy and also, ‘Privacy of one’s identity’ 😂😂😂😂😂

My head is hurting. Again.

HOUSE!

I am pretty sure it would be in judicial knowledge that you need 1 egg and 1 sperm to produce a baby
