To find it heartening that despite so many famous people being anti JKR, their are still so many who are prepared to work on HP?

The end credits on the full cast audio takes 13 minutes. Hugh Laurie, Carl Prekopp, Mark Addy, Indira Varma.....and so many many names!

Then the TV series. Nick Frost, Warwick Davies, John Lithgow, Janet McTeer, Katherine Parkinson and (my favourite) Daniel Rigby.

I feel that the actors and crew are saying that they agree with her (or at least, dont disagree), without actually saying that they agree, if you see what I mean.

consensus expertise

Is that a new buzzword?

Same!!! I was just thinking I recognised the style of posting! Probably name changed after he got his arse handed to him last time.

That's not a comment on Katie Dolatowski, a man who pretends to be a woman, and the 12yo girl he raped in a female supermarket toilet.

I would like to know what you have to say about that, as you've said men who are pretending to be women and women face the same risks.

No problem!

@Namelessnelly oh they are still knocking around on another thread.

It IS a male problem. Caused by men and experienced by men. It’s for men to solve, not for women to be made more vulnerable.

We’re not everyone’s Mummies. We don’t need to wipe your bottoms for you or solve all your problems. Sort your own problems out like big boys.

The same reason why pedophilia or rape or domestic violence is everyone’s 'problem' even if we aren't all children or women. That's how civilised society works.

I thought the same. The misogynistic user name is a bit of a clue.

That chart has been proven as a misrepresentation of the situation. Incarceration is not the same as offending. For example, most rapes of women are not reported therefore its impossible to know the extent of male violence to compare it with trans women.

So you're saying that if the true rate of rape was to be included then the men might even be as bad as the transwomen in their offending?

Utter nonsense. I really don't agree with the ethics of my company. However they pay me well

Yes, it's an immediately recognisable writing style.

Trans women are men @godtierKaren

I am fine them living however they ‘feel’. But they are men. In a thousand years when they are excavated in an archaeological dig they will be identified as men.

House! What's the prize on the bingo today? I could do with a nice pre Christmas windfall.

so tiny and yet think their views and special feels should override everyone else’s actual rights

And good luck if you work for the government! 😂

Are men doing a lot to stop other men from abusing their spouses and children?

What are men doing about the problem of male violence exactly?

Yes, it’s impossible to know the extent of all male violence against women, irrespective of how the men identify.

But from what we do know, men who identify as women are an increased risk.

If you think the data has been discredited, link to proof of this.

For me, the point of this thread is that had these productions been made 5 years back, the actors involved would have had second thoughts about being involved and some would have pulled out.

But now, they're willing to consider it to be a mainstream career choice for themselves. Whether or not they're secret supporters of JKR, neutral, or whatever.

This means that the unhinged trans activists are losing their power. That's a definite improvement and it is heartening.

So by your reasoning, men who are pretending to be women are likely to be carrying out even more sex attacks and rapes than we know about.

I don't have to. Its self evident reporting is not offending so that fact alone discredits any conclusion you can make about that chart.

You say this and yet you are pushing for practices that put children and women at MORE risk of this. Why?

90% of people think about this stuff maybe once a month. Remember it's a bubble on social media.

I have.a really hectic social job, social life and sporty life. Iwork in lots of different spheres. I probably knowingly meet one transperson every couple of months in any sort of meaningful way. Its just not as important to many people.

Suddenly bothered about women and children when they can be useful to make a point huh?

How much time and effort exactly are you putting into all of those issues? I assume you must be campaigning on all of them in the same way you seem to expect women to be solving all the issues there are for men that are trans.

Civilised societies also offer protection to certain protected categories of people based on known issues and decades, and in the case of males and females, millennia of experience of some of the consequences of the differences between males and females.

This is one of the primary reasons we have 'Sex' as one of the protected categories. It is to ensure and that female people are given the protections and safeguards they require to engage fully in public life with some degree of equality of access and opportunity.

Male people have a known greater propensity to all manner of acts and behaviours which necessitate the provision of single sex facilities, services and categories for the dignity and privacy of the female sex when in public places.
