When did "deadnaming" become a thing?

[Charabanc]

I've been pondering how it's become accepted that "deadnaming" someone is some kind of heinous crime, akin to literal genocide.

When did this come about? Was it via Stonewall? It's not a term I recall from years back, it seems quite recent.

Somehow they decided that it wasn't allowed, and all the DEI lot fell in with it. Like pronouns, I guess. I'm a bit fed up of having to follow their 'rules'.

(Thoughts inspired by SP's naming of Mr Weddell)

I value the rigorous data that PPs are providing to the few who have made this thread highly tedious.

I'm off to start a new one!

This. It was so unnecessary.

GC's claim trans woman are a risk to women therefore it's up to them to provide the evidence.

The evidence has been provided on this thread. Over and over and over again.

Also the fact transwomen are MALE. Therefore an automatic risk to females, based on that alone.

Is Bruce's deadname Jeffrey?

I KNEW Bruce reminded me of someone! You are so right!

How do you know it technically is? I would assume it has been changed legally, so there would be no technically at all about it still being Ellen

Trans people don’t believe people can change sex. They believe people can change gender

Oh yes they do. They say sex can change all the time.

So why does trans women's change in "gender" mean female people aren't allowed to have their own rights, protections, spaces and opportunities bases on their sex without including trans "women"?

Some of them don't. However some trans people swear up and down that taking hormones changes their chemistry and they become female. Some are really that deluded. I've come across too many, especially on twitter, that genuinely believe taking HRT has changed their DNA. India Willoughby considers himself a "Biological Female", in fact, he even has it in his twitter bio that he a quote "Biological Female".

So why do they demand access to single ‘sex’ provisions?

Humans cannot change sex. HTH

Erm...

And India threatened to show off the cervix he claims to have miraculously grown. On live tv.

And as pp's have said, why is there such footstamping about the clarification around single sex services if its about gender?

Oh you sweet summer chile. You have a lot to learn.

Hahahahahahahaha

I'm sorry, my dear, the deranged TRA lunatics like Willoughby and Upton do claim they are actually biologically female. That they changed sex and in the case of Willoughby, that he has grown a cervix.

I wish they were like the nice sane trans identifying people of ages past but nope, lots now claim under oath that they have changed sex.

Reality is a transphobic according to the outer edges of trans activism.

This sweet summer child is Durin's Bane, the "one ring to rule them all and in the darkness bind them".

Erm, akshually 🤓 Durin's Bane was the balrog. Probably couldn't get another acting job after the Fellowship and now spends its time titting around on MN.

Although 'none shall pass' has it's uses outside the LoTR.

I'm imagining something like this, assuming MN permits

You're right about the ring being a Bane, but it was Isildur's.

Wow - I was thinking the qualifier "biological" provided the appropriate level of objective, non value laden, clarity - but obviously not... Women without a Y chromosome is a bit cumbersome and a definition based on not having (XX works for 99.99% but women with Turner's Syndrom don't have a Y but a single X or partial deletion of the second X) ...

How very embarrassing. Durin's Bane was of course a Balrog. I should probably read the book again, it's some years since the last time. Thank you for correcting me.

I would not wish to accept the word of a Balrog.

Indeed, as I have already admitted, I was embarrassingly wrong. I blame encroaching senility.

Just don't deadname Gandalf the White.

(Probably best not to mention the Balrog in front of him either. Bit triggering.)

Wrong thread.
