Girl Guides and the SC judgement

It was the Girl Guides' trans policies which first opened my eyes to the nonsense. I've just checked their website and they are still saying that trans girls can use girls' toilets and changing rooms, and share accommodation with whoever they want. There's no indication that the policies are gong to be reviewed in the light of the SC judgement. Anyone know any more about this?

@user08101988 You made a claim that transwomen's brains are indistinguishable from women's brains (and clearly different from mens).

Can you please link to the research on this?

Because if that were true then at least there would be a way to tell 'real' transwomen from the 'fake' men just claiming to get access to women's spaces.

Also, given that toys and clothes aren't gendered, can you explain how a child choosing non stereotypical clothes or toys can be used to back up a claim they are trans rather than just gender non conforming?

(Speaking as a female with short hair, who doesn't wear make up, prefers trousers, and likes maths/engineering ...)

Thanks for the laughs user08101988. I have greatly enjoyed your posts, what a great parody. well done.

However, in all seriousness, you shouldn't be asking random people to email you. It isn't a wise or safe thing to do.

Why would anyone on this site be stupid enough to email some random on the Internet who cant even publicly respond to the valid and accurate post he quoted

No need to email you (not a single regular poster here is going to click on that address), just start your own thread on this board.

I just feel like this area of Mumsnet is getting a bit off topic. If this was a part of the internet about the validity of trans women, I would've kept going. I feel like it was getting too off topic to continue

TeenToTwenties · Yesterday 12:29

Absolutely not going to email!
If you have evidence for your claims then post them for all to see and critique.

Start your own thread with the evidence then.
I think a lot of posters on this board would be interested to see this groundbreaking research.

What a blast from the past! It must be nearly 10 years since all those tropes were first trotted out. Has user lots of numbers been asleep for the past decade?

Thread is here to keep going. My mistake to get you to email me. It was very immature looking at it. I take accountability

Keep this thread for what it was intended for, and move all of this discourse here

Wrong board though?
Suggest you report your thread and get it moved to this one.

And you haven't posted the evidence for the claims you made re brains and stereotypes.

Don't suppose you also want to take any accountability for the insults you've thrown our way during your brief visit here?

They are also letting trans men into GG (Girlguiding) (for unintelligent people who do not understand how language works: someone who were assigned female at birth who transitioned into a man) so they are letting MEN into GG now. Give me evidence that giving young trans girls the space to be themselves (a girl) is so destructive to the cis girls there.

It's not language it is the sex of the person. There are only two sexes - Female and male/

I'd urge you to stop making a fool of yourself but I doubt you will.

So, you are not slow, despite you needing to use an ad hominem to try and win? No facts at all in that statement. I think the liberals win here, honey
