I saw a TicTok one if those stupid staged social experiments (hate those) a TiM was challenged for using the ladies by a "Karen" ( hate that term with a vengeance but that's what she was portraying so effing misogynistic) and a group of MEN piped up in support of the trans. Telling a woman who gets to use women's spaces

The whole narrative was of course that the woman was in the wrong. I couldn't watch it to its conclusion. Even worse were the comments with some saying things like " if I had been there I would have punched that Karen" the whole thing has really upset and angered me. I saw it 3 days ago but its stuck in my mind

I’m angry just hearing about it. Privacy and respect means nothing these days, and bonus points if they can bully and ridicule a woman for not being comfortable FFS! Sometimes my brain can’t cope with all this tit we are meant to put up with.

In talking about periods, When I was a teen the bleeding lasted several weeks but never went to the gp as I had no understanding of periods, it went to the fairly normal albeit really heavy and painful. I blame the Catholic education rather than my mum as she felt it would just be a bother to the gp and probably suffered the same crap, she's long dead following rapid dementia - she did go to the gp about memory loss and he (yep a male GP) laughed and said we all forget :mad:

It's all the womens groups that are embracing this trans tit when there's so many female issues to be dealt with that's annoying as there's nowhere to turn to. Warning it's a long thread and very upsetting

That thread is depressing but the replies and supporting snips in the thread (don’t tweet not sure what they’re called!) are promising. More and more people in the public eye, especially in sports are speaking up.

Martina’s recent tweet about TW in women’s sports also had someone (a man, of course) tell her to “stay in her lane”. Hysterical.

Ha! Her OBE is literally for services “to tennis, women in sport, and charity.”

I admire Judy Murray the more I read about her - she has done a lot for grassroots tennis. And raised feminist sons. Andy Murray has defended and uplifted the women’s side of tennis and credit is given to her. All these brave Scots (and adopted Scots in Rowling) women standing up for this in the face of SNP blatant agenda chasing.

Would be great to ask them so if you where out shopping or for something to eat with mum/granny/sister/aunt etc and it was them challenging the person would they punch them? Cue tumbleweed

Yes or they would be collaborators who denounce their own blood to curry favour with the party :ROFLMAO:

Some prick on Facebook is mansplaining gender identity to me (on a post which is a woman sharing her experience of receiving unsolicited sexual photographs and messages from a young man asking if it's "less gay" that he performs oral sex on a man while wearing women's clothes) and predictably, loads of the comments are from men and they/them men about how this person might be trans.

Or maybe he's inflicting his fetish on a woman without her consent by sexually harassing her?!

bleeping misognists.

What do you all think about this? Trans man told to leave barbers as they "don't do women's haircuts." https://tattle.life/threads/19920/

Eta: posted too soon. Was going to say I don't blame them as the individual does look very much like a woman, but I think that spokesman could've done better than "we don't cut long hair" - the person in question seems to have short hair, and also some men have long hair? Would they then turn them away?

I know a couple of butch lesbians who’ve been turned away from barbers who only cater for men. It’s tit because hair is hair, but their choice. Plenty of unisex places like Supercuts you can go to.

But of course put the trans issue into it and everyone loses their minds.

Thats so weird , I really don't get why hairdressers are still often men/women, what difference does it make in this day and age? I have seen places that charge differently for men's or women's cuts and it makes no sense to me, lots of women have short hair and lots of men have long.totally illogical, not like something like a spa or a prison

Person who wants a “man’s” haircut went to a specific hairdresser that specialises in said styles. Why wouldn’t they cut it? Probably spoke to a head who wanted to be rude.

One of my friends - who is a woman has short hair & she goes to a barbers as she likes the way they cut her hair and she’s never had a problem so it’s a bit of an odd thing for them to say however I don’t think it’s got anything to do with the fact this person is trans as much as they and the MEN are trying to insinuate.

This barber situation seems to pop up fairly regularly but instead of just accepting the minor inconvenience and taking your business elsewhere people like to scream discrimination and run to the press. This situation is just an attempt at attention seeking and could do unnecessary damage to someone’s business.

However…
As per my understanding barber training course teaches different things to that of a general hair stylist. So people will choose a barbers course that might also include things like beard work and close shaves etc and haven’t necessarily had the same training with long hair as a general hair dresser but a general hairdresser will have a bit of barbers training. (if that makes sense)

See this bottom bit is where I try and give barbers the benefit of the doubt - I know a few women who have short hair and have been turned away from barbers - but surely short hair is just short hair? Unless they're after a pixie cut or something I feel like it wouldn't really make a difference.
