Actual feminists and trans people said that this would happen..and that the SC ruling would affect GNC women far more than trans women. Sadly in their seething obsessive hate of trans people, cisgender women are just collateral for 'gender critical' activists.

‘I’ve been spat on’: gender non-conforming women tell of toilet abuse after UK’s supreme court ruling

Support groups report that women and non-binary people are increasingly being challenged in toilets and changing facilities – but others call it scaremongering

It's here
to save us all having to repeat ourselves

The Guardian is getting more and more like the Sun every day. Remember the 80s when us butch lesbians were called ‘son’ and we laughed? It never made it to the news, but that was before opportunistic men of course.

Theswiveleyeballsinthesky · 12/08/2025 21:47

We've already done this today - and we've done it the several other times it's been recycled too

still have no idea why a man spitting at a woman means we should just men into women's toilets 🤔

eatfigs · 12/08/2025 21:48

Are you sure? Two unconfirmed cases of women supposedly being mistaken for men, versus protest marches of thousands of men-who-call-themselves-women yelling and shouting and demanding to be let into women-only spaces.

AyeDeadOn · 12/08/2025 21:51

The woman in the picture doesnt look remotely like a man so I dont believe this happened. Anyway, it doesnt exactly outweigh a girl getting raped in asda cos an actual man was let use the ladies.

Greyskybluesky · 12/08/2025 21:57

In the original report of this incident she said she had her back to the guy who called out to her.
That's why it says he came over and touched her shoulder.
She turned round and then he realised.
How odd of the guardian to have omitted that key detail.

JeremiahBullfrog · 12/08/2025 22:02

Did this happen before trans people decided to use opposite sex toilets en masse? Because if not, maybe they should share some of the blame.

arethereanyleftatall · 12/08/2025 22:04

every time @BeeSourianteAgainposts, and they are literally one of a tiny tiny handful of mumsnetters who put male rights above females, the only result is multiple unanimous dissenting posts.
no one here is ever going to change from wanting to protect women and children to your side bees.

so all you’re ever going to achieve by starting thread after thread about trans rights, is showing anyone new to this, that pretty much everyone is GC.

Greyskybluesky · 12/08/2025 22:05

He gets some attention tho

Bit sad really

This.

And FYI, Bee - the glee with which TRAs (TIMs and beardy wokebros in particular) greet the prospect of uppity wimmin getting taken down a peg or two is really distasteful.

Distasteful, but very very illuminating.

Just saying.

Oh no you're not, Banned😁.

You are not stupid, but I am useless! - in this case anyway.
I can save this page to my laptop, but as a web file rather than a jpeg, so I don't know how useful that format is.

Hopefully somebody else will have something helpful to tell you, but it ain't me babe, as somebody once saidWink

I refuse to believe that you are incredibly stupid and I certainly am not the most adept with this sort of thing, I just took a photo of it on my phone, cropped it, and saved it to my photo library, after @nauticant very kindly posted it. I hope that helps 🥰

nutmeg7 · 13/08/2025 07:12

If I click and hold on the image on my phone, it asks if I would like to save it to “photos” so I said “yes”. This could be an iPhone thing though.

myplace · 13/08/2025 07:18

I’m so pleased this thread has turned out to be useful.
I too have saved the graphic for future use!

I had to take a screenshot though, as saving the photo the usual way (as Nutmeg described) was the wrong format for some reason.

Ooh, I haven’t checked the file format or whether I can actually use it… will go and have a rummage..

nutmeg7 · 13/08/2025 07:36

Eek, yes, iphone saves HEIC format, but apparently you can use the “files” app to make a copy into a folder, and then “export” it to a new file format eg jpeg.

But that was quite longwinded, so a screenshot seems to be a more attractive option!

Where is christinipple? Or whatever his name is. Has bee captured him. I think we should be told .

Shortshriftandlethal · 13/08/2025 08:06

It is certainly not likely to be a woman concerned about sex based rights and protections who goes around spitting on people......so I'm not sure why this thread is here? There are, and always have been, really unevolved people who pick on those that are different or stand out for some reason in public spaces.

Picking on people for their red hair, for being overweight, for being of another race, for being overtly camp or butch, for being an attractive young woman, for being an elderly woman, for being disabled...and so on.

Meanwhile, women who have been meeting, for many years, to discuss issues around women's sex based protections have been spat at, abused, been threatened by trans activists
