Thornaby transgender woman jailed for deception sex assault - BBC News

Amazon probably.

Ever heard of moobs? Moobs plus push up bra'll do it ( yuk)

There was an image in the last few days of a bloke wearing a kind of plastic breastplate, like a backless, but definitely not frontless, t shirt.

Made of silicone, you can but them off etsy. It will be interesting to see what that search does to the ads I see for the next few weeks.

Ashleeeeeeeee’s not happy is he?

Even with no below the waist action how did that man pass as a woman?

Unless it's ok for men to deceive and abuse women they can't have sex!

Only nasty people would think there was an issue with this!

How on earth can anyone call that monster a “she”?! That is one ugly ass bloke.

I'm sure Zack Polanski can help you with that

🤣😂😅😳

< snorts >

< then gets the brain bleach out > ewwwww!

No wonder they all like him so much 😂

One of the top comments in the reddit thread is revealing. It basically says: what’s to stop someone sleeping with a trans woman and then claiming they were never told to get them arrested. But that’s just similar to men talking about women calling in sexual assault because they’re spiteful. I mean anyone could accuse anyone of sexual assault so I don’t see why trans people are special in that regard. And if you’re worried about being accused of not revealing you’re trans it’d be easy to have evidence of a text etc

😁😁😁

I actually feel a bit sorry for this one. I mean, he's gone to prison because he 'deceived' someone into letting him give them oral sex.

I mean come on now...the man that let Ciara give him a BJ is a big fibbing fibber and we all know it 😂 He KNEW it was a bloke, how could anyone believe for a second he was really deceived?!

The guilty verdict seems more than a little unfair in this specific instance.

Dark, drunk, inexperienced…

I’ll admit, it does seem a stretch though.

But why then go to this extreme and let the world know?

It may be the fear some straight men have even in 2025 as being perceived gay? And that fear turned to anger and a need for retribution?

He told this guy he was “on his period” - why do these men do this?

There's no evidence that his victim was lying.

I wouldn't be surprised if his victim is a bit mentally slow, and more vulnerable to manipulation as a consequence, which would make this even worse if true.

And go back a few years and a few lbs, some 18 year olds can still look prepubescent - not starting shaving or only needing to once a fortnight, very clear skin etc….

The photos from today have been specifically chosen to not pass, I suspect the defendant didn’t shave to have stubble on purpose. The judge made it clear there were photos from the time where it wasn’t as obvious.

I did find it difficult to believe he didn’t know he was with a man but like PP said the judge pointed out that the victim had been ridiculed online for not knowing he was a man but only because the most obvious pics had been chosen. I’ve seen others where a naive 18 year old could definitely think he was a woman. Plus being younger and meeting at night most likely with low lighting etc

Also, we don't blame victims. Even if we're all rolling our eyes and thinking it's pretty bloody obvious this one's a wrong un man, we don't blame victims. The suggestion upthread that he might have been vulnerable himself sounds spot on to me.

Or just maybe, despite the groupthink in evidence here, this is not a sexual assault at all but just another example of this country's prurience and inability to be honest about sex. If everyone is right and the complainant is a man, then the complainant's assertion that he "doesn't swing that way" is necessarily false, since he was clearly sexually attracted to a man. So if there is any deception here, it's the young man who was deceiving himself about his own sexuality.

Alternatively, of course, it maybe it's just not so clear whether the defendant was man or not, and the framing of all this as a sexual assault is just a self-evident absurdity that no reasonable human being would entertain for a moment. And the young man concerned needs to realize that you shouldn't expect to be treated as an adult and still claim the sort of protections our culture us es to protect children. But then, facts are never as much fun as another excuse for howls of synthetic outrage, are they?

Watkin lied about being on a period so he could deceive his victim into believing he's a woman and engaging in a sexual act.

@Cassandrazone Did you read the link? The man was found guilty so I don’t know why you’re proposing different theories and then bemoaning people for not caring about facts when the facts are already known regarding whether it was sexual assault.

If he did knowingly have sexual contact with a man then it really makes no sense to then go to the police, have a trial and broadcast it. Imagine how embarrassing it’d be to walk into a police station and explain.
