But I thought people "can always tell"?

It also led to the irony the only males in the bathroom were two male police officers who were notified by a store employee who mistakenly thought a male had entered the woman's toilets.

"In an alarming incident at a Tucson, Arizona Walmart, 19-year-old Kalaya Morton*, a Black cisgender lesbian, was confronted by two male sheriff’s deputies while using the women’s restroom, sparking outrage and a demand for accountability.
Morton, who identifies as masculine-presenting or a “stud,” recounted the humiliating encounter that occurred when a store employee erroneously assumed she was a transgender woman. The saga began innocuously enough: Morton had entered the restroom with her ex-girlfriend, who was kindly handing her a tampon— an act of friendship that, unfortunately, soon spiraled into something far more troubling. In an exclusive interview with The Advocate, Morton detailed her shock when the two deputies barged in, shining flashlights into the restroom stall.

“You have to get out of here. You have to come out. We need to talk to you.” Imagine trying to pee in peace, only to have the police storm in like it’s an episode of Cops: Restroom Edition.
“I’m still using the restroom. I’m sitting down, I’m peeing. What is the issue?,” Morton incredulously told the deputies as she sat there.
Now, while most people hope for a streamlined bathroom experience, Morton was treated more like a suspect than a bathroom user. The deputies apparently needed to crack the case of “Who Looks Like a Man in the Ladies’ Room,” a particularly absurd mystery, if you ask us."

Apparently, it was all women’s fault that they saw open to the public porn content on a mainstream social media platform when replying to tweets by those who thrived on women non consensually finding that content.

The content posted by the very same people who demand access into female single sex spaces when they are male.

And those same male people are the ones who enjoy female people’s distress at finding them in the spaces that female people need to be same sex and to exclude those male people.

I don’t think some posters think through something that they see as some sick gotcha. I really don’t.

I don't understand how she could be mistaken for trans.
A trans woman often looks like a man dressed as a woman. A masc lesbian looks like a woman dressed as a man. Even if people thought she was trans, surely they'd assume she was a trans man therefore was in the correct bathroom due to her biological sex?
My best friend is a masc lesbian and has never had an issue in the ladies'.

I have spoken on here about friends and family being abused for being male. Not just questioned, briefly, but full out abused. I've spoken about a friend who was subject to a campaign by some high profile z list celebs who are famously anti trans for being a man. Being doxed, having videos made about her to their hundreds of thousands of followers, no care being given to her teenage daughters at school being bullied about it.

All three have given birth to children- as that is always questioned. And yes, these things really happened. And no, I am not a man (all accusations I have faced here)

Apparently this is perfectly acceptable. By people claiming they're supporting women. NO, you are not supporting women. You are being utter utter hypocrites.

As someone who always gets lots of the trans issue on twitter literally never ever ever have porn on the replies of any tweet I look at. Again, stop following and interacting with people who also watch porn and trans porn on twitter and it will stop pushing those tweets at you. It's literally pushing to the top of your replies and FYP what it sees you regularly watch in full and / or engage with.

i once (foolishly, I know) commented on a JKR post on twitter to say something innocuous about the bunny in the Christmas pig and how much my son had enjoyed it… only to be tagged with plenty of trans porn. I reported everything and blocked. In the end I just deleted my account. I have had some quite respectful interactions with trans people and I often felt quite sorry that THEIR voices were drowned out by the angry young men forcing their pornography and threats on women.

That was JKR's fault how dare she a woman have an opinion on the need to use the word woman or think that women should not be sacked from jobs which decided to knowingly use flawed data to create social policy.
The poor innocent random stranger who read your comment was fully justified in abusing you because JKR failed to tweet out that posting images of sex acts to accounts displaying childrens art was not not nice.
So its got to be JKR's fault that you ended up deleting your account.

I am sure I missed something ....

If it was not JKR, your algorithm was to blame for that not the nasty sex offenders getting a vicarious thrill from digital flashing you and children.

There's a difference between an algorithm throwing up content that you enjoy (this isn't the problem) and men inserting themselves into a discussion and @- ing the women so they see it (which is the problem).
Pretty sure you already know this, but let's make it clear.

I'm sorry but that isn't happening to anyone not already following circles on twitter than enjoy such content. If you blocked and reported when you first saw instead of keep watching through, the algorithm will stop. Get a new X account and test out if you're still getting porn everywhere you look if you try not watching it 👍🏻

You need to stop blaming women for being sent unwanted sexual imagery. This is a feminism board, not an incel one. You're not going to find much appreciation for victim blaming here.

Everything is your algorithm, replies are recommended, the accounts you see are pushed based on your preferences. It's almost like you haven't noticed everything you see online either agrees entirely with your worldview or is the exact kind of rage bait that affirms your world view, no?

Not going to engage with this numpty any further. He's clearly getting way too excited at the idea of women objecting to being sent dick pics. They always pop up on these bloody threads.

Sorry I'm a woman who is regularly online on feminist boards and twitter threads and because I don't tweet regularly and engage in threads about trans people's genitals I don't regularly get pushed explicit images.

You sound like those middle aged men complaining about why their Instagram feed is full of naked women and it just "pops up". Literally spend one minute learning how the internet works before you expose yourself.

justean do you think the answer to this is removing safeguards for women in favour of trans identifying men? Because I don’t.

Ooh we've moved onto "must be a MAN" inevitable part of these threads 🙄😁
@Helpmelosemymind is correct what they're saying about algorithms. That is how they work.
They kind of "learn" what content /, angle/viewpoint you are usually in and push you more of the same.
Seriously, read up on them, it's important knowledge and I don't mean that to sound patronising.

Or you know ..... people could stop uploading sex acts onto an open public SM?

The whole not wagging ones willy out ones window as passing persons?

Just throwing that idea out there.

That a little old fashioned part of the social contract should still hold.
But is a reason why governments are seeking the ability regulate persons who are unable or unwilling to regulate their own social interactions.

@Helpmelosemymind have you set yourself a personal best for how many times you can write 'trans people's genitals'?
