Trans-identifying man it is, then.They want the space because they want trans to be an adjective like tall woman, short woman, etc. They can argue about spaces all they want but they're men and a space or lack of won't make the blindest bit of difference. They can lash out, yell, try to call a woman a dehumanising term like 'pig'. Still men
Your chromosomes say otherwise, pig.Wow, check out the meltdown this man has because someone used 'transwoman' instead of 'trans woman'. Calls a woman a pig because of a space and has the cheek to lecture her about 'slurs'? Honestly, the aggression scares me. If he reacts like that over something so trivial, imagine what he would be like in person if he picked up on a perceived slight or something. This is why we don't want them in our spaces. The aggression is frightening
Wow the Beeb seems to be changing its tune after being quite one sided for a few years.Despite the pile on the BBC are standing by their position to publish the article about lesbians being coerced by men in frocks
Open letter calls for BBC apology on trans article - BBC News
The letter, which takes issue with a BBC News online story, is signed by more than 16,000 people.www.bbc.co.uk
What us the efffing difference with/without a space? Both are fictional anyway, why are they so nasty to people with goalposts that keep changing what is "acceptable" to them? Seriously can the asteroid come.Wow, check out the meltdown this man has because someone used 'transwoman' instead of 'trans woman'.

Not forgetting the kaftan-clad legend that was Demis Roussos.Exactly. Someone needs to tell him that David Bowie wore a dress on an album cover in 1971!
I don’t really go on Twitter except for clicking specific tweets people have posted and reading comments, but I was trying to find the “transwoman/trans woman” account last night and struggled, and found myself emerged in some similar accounts…it felt like I was wading through serious mental health problems. If I didn’t know about any of this I would have thought they were parodies. One of them said along the lines of “I am a depressed, autistic, suicidal transwoman on medication, #Netflix, fire Chapelle and give me my own comedy show instead”, so, so bizarre and otherworldly.I’m just so exhausted with all this. Reading the thread a times is horrifying and depressing. It’s like I see the world through a different lens.
I see there are now claiming adult human female. Even though they are not by any definition.Wow, check out the meltdown this man has because someone used 'transwoman' instead of 'trans woman'.

So will that include parents that try and raise their kids non binary and don't tell anyone wheather they are boys or girls.Maybe the tide is changing

Oh its bound to happen! There will always be people that take advantage. Likewise, my MH was bad a few months ago but I kept piling the pressure on myself instead of saying I needed a break. You still worry/feel guilty etcI was in a bit of a mood when I typed that lol.
It probably is just a small amount of gen Z like this, the article was a small sample in USA and the internet doesn't help as the worst of them seem to be the loudest. Many that work in retail and food services have been to my experience polite and professional. And mentored a few in placements (born pre 2000s) that just wanted to do their work..
Our work does provide free counselling and if it's work related stress leave isn't counted to the sick, though I think you need to prove the issue was work and had a meeting with management to help. I know esp this year I could have taken stress leave and really should have as my MH has been at it's worst but I had the guilt as I had the privilege to be WFH and didn't want the projects to be heaped onto someone else. Talk about MH and providing better resources is good. Sadly some will take the piss, there's a person that takes 6 months stress leave every few years for a long break, and they ain't suffering from MH just playing the system
Agreed - there seems to be no resillience?While I do think it's great there's a renewed focus on mental health in general I do think that there's been some downsides- for instance, just having a slightly bad day or being in a mood is not the same as having a mental health condition. Being anxious sometimes or a bit down for no reason or other are all part of being human but at the slightest hint of this some are screaming about their mental health.
By the way, this is not directed at anyone here- it's more the crowd who collapse in a heap over pronouns or who need trigger warnings because of Harry Potter or whatever. Those people have no coping skills whatsoever
Why does this horrible man hate women so much? Why does he hate that we want rights? Why are women the enemy to him and trans women the absolute bees knees?answers on a postcard please.
My hairdresser was talking to me about apprentices the other day, he said he liked one of them, she had a good attitude and personality. I said is that unusual. He said yes, a lot of them don’t have a clue. He says they all have “ issues” - he did the quotes. I asked him what he meant. He said some of them are insolent, and back chatting in front of customers, even when asked to do the most basic thing. (He reprimands them later.) And he said he is tired of them treating him like a parent rather than an employer. He has to sit and listen to them - they all want to tell him about their anxieties. He said they say they have anxieties when you ask them to do X (basic stuff) and if he says do you have anxieties when you do something you enjoy, they say no. He tries to tell them that feeling nervous about new stuff is a normal part of life, and using anxiety as an excuse not to do something is not on, but they are all on planet Me. He just wants to go home and see his own kids and has to act as some type of parent to other people’s kids. He is in his late 30s, so not methuselah.While I do think it's great there's a renewed focus on mental health in general I do think that there's been some downsides- for instance, just having a slightly bad day or being in a mood is not the same as having a mental health condition.

Because he can't get laid and probably has a TINY cock. He's a card though, I'll give him that 'Euan yours', what an INCREDIBLY AMUSING AND FUNNY PUN. Said no-one ever.
Probably spends his days wanking over Ru Paul's drag race interspersed with his twitter bullshit.

I worked closely with someone in University student services and the levels of support some students need these days is unbelievable. Of course, support should be available but she said a lot of them need help managing the most basic of life events. Essay deadlines would trigger anxiety, lots apply for extenuating circumstances to allow extra time and so on.My hairdresser was talking to me about apprentices the other day, he said he liked one of them, she had a good attitude and personality.

Wrapped in cotton wool. Resilience doesn't seem to be a thing. Mental Health is of course real (we all suffer somehow/sometimes) but kids aren't taught coping methods to keep the worst of it at bay so they don't try anything out of their comfort zone. I know people don't like the term "snowflake" but I think it does apply to a lot of young people these days. They seem incapable of thinking critically.I worked closely with someone in University student services and the levels of support some students need these days is unbelievable.
