Patagonia the outdoor brand suing Pattie Gonia the drag queen

The performer said the Patagonia trademark lawsuit amounted to its CEO Ryan Gellert and other executives deciding that "I must cease to exist".

Dramatic as ever.

He's broken an agreement not to use similar font (just skim-read) so what does he expect?

Is that legal? Have they got a similar sign outside the gents toilets (so that they in effect have two unisex facilities, presumably with the required enclosed cubicles), or have they got a gents facility, a unisex facility, and no single-sex provision for biological women?

And who is the moron who thinks the 'correct' response here is 'let men do what the duck they want, legal or otherwise, and force women to be sanctioned for objecting'?
I can't wait for a high-profile court case against one of these organisations who think they don't have to follow laws they don't like that uphold women's sex-based rights - bring it on 👊

This doesn't seem to have made it here yet. Apparently this church will provide an entertainer for any bigoted woman who is concerned that a man might be using the Ladies loo. So reassuring to have someone sniffing around outside the cubicle - keeping an eye and ear out for danger no doubt.
That Sophie Wilson bloke is in an over 40s fashion group I was part of on Facebook. He constantly posted his vulgar outfits, parading his fetish while the handmaidens lapped it up. He posted a photo without his Bet Lynch wig once and he looked like a nasty thug.

This poor poor young woman

Look at the timeline...

She's 21 now, she started taking testosterone at 14. I think she said mastectomy 7(?) months later (so either still 14 or possibly 15). At one point she mentions that 5 years after stopping testosterone her voice is still damaged. So she stopped taking testosterone at 16. Presumably she didn't just wake up one morning and go "oh I don't think I'm a boy anymore" she must have been mulling it over for a while. Less than two years between first prescription and regret/detrans. Just think how much good therapy could have done in that two years. I'm disgusted at what has been done to this damaged little girl who has been turned into an even more damaged young woman.

Patagonia the outdoor brand suing Pattie Gonia the drag queen
On a lighter note, when I read this headline on my newsfeed this morning I had it in my head that Patagonia the country* was suing the drag queen and I thought to myself "well that's a bit odd". I didn't click to read the story because I couldn't give a shiny tit but now I know it's the clothing brand, it makes much more sense.

(*Just looked it up, it's not actually a country but a geographical region. I have learned two things related to Patagonia today, that's probably more than at only other time in my life)

I had to leave all fashions groups. I couldn’t work out what was more annoying - badly dressed t's or the handmaidens telling them how great they looked. I am yet to see a trannie that didn’t look like a dogs dinner.

Someone needs to tell them 370 likes out of 330k equal 1% so the tr4nnie population if I am reading right never known so much kerfuffle over a law

I saw a headline on bbc news. Man woman and child fall from a height and die in south London. I don’t have any details, but from experience we know this was, man kills woman and child and then himself. Family annihilators are never acknowledged as they also die.

That was exactly my first thought too. ☹

Oh look, the “literal genicide” klaxon:

‘The performer said the Patagonia trademark lawsuit amounted to its CEO Ryan Gellert and other executives deciding that "I must cease to exist".’

How does a legal obligation to not market your performance persona under branding that infringes someone else’s copyrighted intellectual property mean that you ‘must cease to exist’?

These people must be hard work to be around. Everything is about them and they're always a bee's fool away from some drama.

Most of the high-profile gender-critical belief-discrimination cases to date have related to workplaces. But gender-critical belief discrimination is unlawful in services, too – and now that Bridget Phillipson, the Minister for Women and Equalities, has finally published the updated Code of practice for services, public functions and associations, anyone who experiences this sort of discrimination by a service provider can cite it when complaining or seeking legal redress.

Drag is not a ‘gender’, a sexuality or any other type of protected characteristic. It’s just a man pretending to be a woman so people will laugh at him in a comedy setting. I find it so odd how they’ve been elevated into some kind of priest caste for such trivial rit. If you say anything about a drag queen on social media that isn’t gushing and slavish worship about how glam they are you can literally hear your ‘progressive’ friends seething through the screen.

This is what I find so odd about drag queens being vaunted as evidence of ‘inclusivity’. It’s purely a performance genre 🤷‍♀️

Maybe the BBC should start wheeling out trapeze artistes or contortionists to comment on how they’ve been personally affected by various random news stories. That would be quite fun 😁
