Has banned women and girls over the age of 12 from participating. Thoughts?

Many like me only read what is trending which is where this appeared. I didn’t seek it out.

So despite not bothering to understand the context and board we are posting in, not having bothered read the thread from the beginning, or bothering to seek out your own links, asking others to provide them, but then not bothering to read those either, you’ve decided to come in this board and pontificate about something you know fuck all about? And you’re also happy to admit it apparently. Incredible.

But anyway, I’ll try again….whilst you’re answering, maybe answer this, the other member of the tag team seems to be avoiding it.
Please explain why you think this particular run can be open to (and this is their words, from their website):
Open to everyone: runners, walkers, and children (girls under 12 and boys of any age)
Why girls under 12 but boys can be any age?
Explain , clearly, what you think the difference is between those two groups and why girls are only girls if they are under 12 but boys are boys even if they are over 12.

I don't know. email them for more enquiries

Having looked at their social media page, it's pretty clear it's for women only. No mention of bringing your relatives to watch.

But you know that. You're just trying to pretend that there's even a possibility that male family members would be encouraged to come along and observe, despite knowing that just wouldn't ever happen.

My God.

And you think that it will reflect badly on us ("I want to hear you say it out loud") if we explain why we've got a right to undress, exercise, compete or have trauma counselling away from men, and men like you, who think rape gangs look bad.

I told you you had no idea how you were coming across (you didn't even think we could tell you were a man) but you actually scale new depths. Do keep talking, Operation Let Them Speak rarely worked so well.

I am not a man and I support women having their own spaces.

It's the same bloody thing.
If you are making people uncomfortable because of YOU whether you are a child or an adult chooses to modify their clothing in an inappropriate sexually charged manner then you should be held accountable and should be made to stop doing it.
But go on let male teacher dress the way I said.
Let's see if you keep the same energy.
I know you won't though

Inappropriately sexually charged manner?

What is that exactly? Hocky strip? A swimsuit? Running shorts?

Stop doing this. Stop using black people for your agendas please.

Why is it acceptable for women to be treated in a way that you can’t handle other oppressed groups even hypothetically being treated?

MyHeartyCoralSnail · 12/10/2025 16:04

Hadmysay · 12/10/2025 16:01

Stop doing this. Stop using black people for your agendas please.

Why can’t we illustrate discrimination using a group of people against when discrimination is common place. Do you want us to stop because it shows the exclusion of females over 13 for the bigotry it is.

Westerners need to stop feeling embarrassed or somehow ashamed of wanting to preserve their values (and that doesn’t mean ‘monoculture’ - it means accepting multiculturalism but only to the extent it doesn’t outgrow our traditions or interfere with our basic principles).

My dad moved to Spain years ago, he bought a villa with a shared pool and went for a swim after lunch. Another resident dropped by to discreetly let him know that although he was within his rights to swim then, it wasn’t really the done thing in the local area to swim during siesta as the splashing noises could be heard from the closest villas. Rather than railing against the locals, he just accepted it. This just wouldn’t happen here - we’re taught that anyone is entitled to ride roughshod over our customs is they’re legally allowed to do so, and objecting to this makes you a racist NIMBY desperate to transport us back to the 1950s. And I can’t remember the last time I heard ‘British custom’ being taken into account when deciding to hold large rowdy events, or ban women from a fun run, or erect a huge Mosque on a Victorian street.

Literally no other culture is ashamed or embarrassed to further their own needs, they don’t feel the faintest bit embarrassed about vociferously arguing why they’re ’entitled’ to do so. So why are we?

Exactly-I think the tide has turned here in Britain too, the BBC et al will take some time to catch up but even the Labour Party is starting to cotton on.

We all have our part to play be calling out anti British sentiment wherever we see it. In schools, work places, public places, politics. Businesses, planning. In the East End of London, they’re turning what was a pub and live music venue into a mosque. Talk about symbolic erasing of British culture.

I also don't go spouting a lot of misogynistic shite on a forum for women.

Sorry, why is this anti Muslim?

The right congregate, often with violent behaviour, outside a building in which there are lots of people from foreign countries where Islam is the main religion. How could that not be anti-Muslim?

No.

It can't be the child's 'fault' in UK law.

Your shifting the blame from adult male predators to female children, falsely equating a child’s clothing with a man’s deliberate sexual exposure. It sexualizes girls’ attire, demands they be “held accountable” for making others uncomfortable, and implies that protecting them requires controlling them, not confronting male behaviour.

It reinforces rape culture, excuses predation, and perpetuates the dangerous belief that girls are responsible for managing male desire.

here is @Hadmysay thread that tells you everything you need to know -

women need to moderate their behaviour to help men control their predatory urges

Hadmysay · 12/10/2025 16:11

Humdingerydoo · 12/10/2025 15:51

Are you telling women how to dress?

Is it appropriate for male teachers to modify their clothing and to wear short shorts with their penises bulging out in front of young girls?

I think we've crossed the Rubicon. The disgusting things you say about women were illuminating and could stand to show how men like you think, but blaming children for being "inappropriate" in the presence of paedophiles is just too much. I'll be reporting with a request for a ban. MN don't have to do anything I ask but I'll request it because this is... beyond.
