Gender Discussion #100

[jolly_parsley]

Literally can’t keep up with these threads now at all but yesterday I was out with my husband and toddler and in a cafe heard a man saying to his female companion saying something like “Have you seen the stuff about trans rights?” so my ears pricked up. I couldn’t hear her responses but he said he’d been reading a Guardian article about everything that had happened since the FWS judgement in April and I was thinking “Oooooh he knows about FWS, maybe he’s sensible?”

Quickly disillusioned when he said “It’s not a scientific question of what a woman is, but a social one” and then he said about them being in women’s toilets and basically said something like “My understanding is the women’s toilets are just cubicles with sinks so they’re private and men wouldn’t see anything”.

Had to leave the cafe before I started fighting him. I wanted to say “It’s not just women’s toilets though, it’s women’s prisons that are housing male criminals including rapists, women’s single sex services like grape crisis centres. And also you’re a man lol so maybe sit this one out?”

My husband could see how pissed off I was getting so let me rant to him as soon as we were out the cafe!

Oh yeah another thing he said was “Why do the rights of the majority overrule the rights of a minority?” like duck offfffff. And he looked so smug and up himself as if he thought of amazing points. Why do the rights of like 0.1% of the male population need to overrule the rights of 100% of women you ignorant twerp

The Mail put in a Freedom of Information request about the cost of ‘trans healthcare’ and published an article about it. As of 2024-25, the NHS is estimated to be spending £100 million per year on ‘treatments’.

Some Such treatments, like laser hair removal are not available to women who suffer with recurrent folliculitus, a painful condition for which permanent hair removal is the only cure.

Not being funny but surely in situations where the rights of a significant majority clash with those of a minority, the rights of the majority should take precedence?

£100 million on this less than 0.001% and even 99% of them don’t have the surgery yet others can’t have the care needed, between this and the employment tribunals how much is being taking out of the NHS the NHS wasn’t built for this.🤍

I took the liberty to start a new one.

Old thread https://tattle.life/threads/gender-discussion-100.51280/ I'm sure there are lots of things we would wish to banish to room 101 and this is the thread for it. From the last thread to get us started. 1. The doomed PB trial. Tattle on...
