Ofcom will now investigate Talk Tv re transphobia.

[Imnobody4]

Here we go again.

From Good Law Project:

We said we’d sue over Ofcom’s decision to dismiss 22,000 complaints about transphobia on TalkTV – now the regulator has caved.

But we had monitored its output for July 2025, a month in which it carried 11 discussions on trans people. And in every discussion, its hosts and guests consistently spouted transphobic views. TalkTV’s stance mirrors the broader editorial position of its sister newspaper The Times, whose toxic and intellectually dishonest campaign against trans people we believe to be a contributor to the rise in hate crime against them.

Among my misdeeds, apparently, is that I said this on air: "By definition, if you’ve had to get a piece of paper to say that you are a woman, you must accept then that you are man."

I'm happy to be found guilty of defending women's rights and safety, knowing the actual law, understanding basic biology and knowing what a woman is. 🤷🏻‍♀️

No one needs to humiliate you, you're doing a cracking job by yourself.

I believe I am trans.

Or rather, I understand that were I to believe in Genderism, I would define myself as trans in that framework.

My Trans identity is an Agender Person of Female Biology.

I am certainly not a transmedicalist.

Im sorry that I have angered you and you think I am arguing in bad faith. It is not the case.

I have no wish to argue with you. Wish you a good night.

You are not trans.

One big trans family 🤗!!

Are ypu a cismedicalist then?

We've already got names. "Women" and "men".

In a similar way that it's almost always (more than 99.98% of the time at a fairly educated guess) perfectly obvious who is a man and who is a woman?

You are being very rude about Rhino's lived experience.

I'm trans and so's my wife

I want a flag.

I wouldn't put it quite that high- but yes. Maybe 99.5%

I want a special zebra crossing.

Ok that made me laugh.

Yep. It is why I wouldn’t bother name changing.

Thanks Seethlaw.

How DARE you!!

I am an Agender Person of Female Biology.

I had believed my female biology made me a woman, but now you have explained to me that having [adult human] female biology is not the definition of womanhood I see the error of my ways and repent of my old ways of thinking.

I now realise I am not a woman and I never was a woman.

I am agender.

This is how I truly undertstand myself. It explains why many of the social constraints and constructs of womanhood have always felt wrong to me.

I thought I was a Feminist responding to society's imposition of sexist mores on to my body, but now through Your Guidance puppy I understand that I was never a woman at all and I am reborn as the Agender Person of Female Biology I was always meant to be.

Hallelujah!

I'm going on the incidence of various DSDs, but bearing in mind that most of them very clearly apply only to male (e.g. Klinefelter) or female. I am assuming access to medical testing; without that, I think some people are much better at telling than others. I'm not the best at recognising who is male and who is female, though it's much easier if I see them walking. My understanding is that women tend to be better than men (I'd better clarify, better at distinguishing sex than men!).

🙄

Many people with DSDs one would easily identify as being either male or female. Meanwhile, for other people even without DSDs, it could be harder to tell.
But for the vast majority of people it's fairly easy to determine, yes, from a whole range of queues.

I don't know why you are invalidating people's trans identification. You have tried to explain to us ignorant witches that our understanding of trans is wrong. Maybe you have been successful and prompted a rethink which has resulted in a realisation that they are actually trans?

I'd be inclined to go on cues myself.

Well exactly, I think Rhino, Rapidonset and I have all had an epiphany.

What cues? How can you tell?

Being trans isn't something you can think your way in or out of as we have discussed at length on this thread,
