Those that did it were noticed. Women are trained from an early age to STFU around men in such scenarios. The vast majority of them have zero chance of 'passing'.Trans women have used women's toilets for many years without attracting attention. That's because they had actually transitioned and simply looked like any other woman and conducted themselves in a way that meant no one noticed. Now it seems they have a need to draw attention to themselves to make some kind of point. Having known a number of trans women, I know that there's that awkward period between pre and post-op; when the person is living as a woman but still has a cock. That, again, is entirely different to what's going on now.
I'm confused about the tampon machine. If a man really wants to use one, is he going to use it in the men's loos? Would he not be trying to pass as a woman and use the women's?
The machine needs kicking in. Just when you think it cannot get more stupid, it does. Men cannot have a period and therefore the machine doesn't need to be where it is.
It wouldn’t surprise me if it’s free in the mens and we have to payWhen you think you've seen it all - along comes one more ...
I think I'm too young for this one, which is something I rarely say these days, so thank you.they never had one in the horseshoe last week and I was gutted as I was planning on pretending I was blackadder just before going over the front
Either would I. Its still one of the worlds biggest injustices, It still baffles me that Ireland is the only country in the EU without VAT on tampons and it took us leaving to do that too here!It wouldn’t surprise me if it’s free in the mens and we have to pay
Pretty sure the tampons are for female to male trans people, nothing to do with male to female trans people which seems to be what people have somehow labeled it as. Its for what a lot of people here would define as women presenting as men.I'm confused about the tampon machine. If a man really wants to use one, is he going to use it in the men's loos?

Well actually, I was never trained to "STFU" around any men in any scenarios.Those that did it were noticed. Women are trained from an early age to STFU around men in such scenarios. The vast majority of them have zero chance of 'passing'.
Ding ding ding. Exactly right.Everyone knows that’s what it’s for. We aren’t stupid. It’s a waste of money because very few trans identifying females are going to go in the mens toilet because, as we keep being told, they aren’t safe. And the ones that do feel confident that they pass enough to go in aren’t going to out themselves by buying period products from a machine.
So my Twitter joke was in fact realityMales Of Reddit ban is making sense now.
It interests me that the only person that SueDoyou seems to respect on this thread is the bloke, not women with boundaries.If you had read the thread it begs the question why are you asking that question? That is a hypothetical question as you are incapable of answering questions.
Within this discussion there are probably quite a few people that would have said JK Rowling was transphobic 2, 3 or whatever years ago but having done reading on their own have come to the opposite opinion (JK is just an example). The group for many here is the only forum that allows them to articulate their viewpoints that have evolved over time through many interactions. Despite it being explained to you on numerous occasions that any viewpoint does correlate with how we view the whole group you ignore that. You continually (poorly) try to paint us as people that have never interacted with any trans person whilst your viewpoint is the right one as you have experienced X, Y and Z.
We're completely fine with trans people sharing spaces with their own sex.I literally asked someone had they interacted with many younger trans people and what the reaction from them was because the younger trans people could learn a lot from them...it begs the question, did you even read what I wrote?
The question I asked re spaces is a genuine one. The majority of people in this thread think that transexual/transgender people shouldn't be allowed to share spaces. Fantastic opportunity to meet someone as intelligent and experienced as the poster who has lived that truth for the majority of their life and see what their opinion is on that.
You just need to take the back up off the wall and be prepared to conversate with people with slightly different views without jumping down their necks and being condescending. Its no wonder the topic is such a heated one on the wider internet. I would hate to see how you talk to trans people.
Omg what is she doing?! Look at some of the replies she’s tweeted. She’s one of my favourite authorsAwful victim blaming from Jodi Picoult
Imagine being a writer and coming out with that shite.Awful victim blaming from Jodi Picoult

Looks like the official story is that she’s stepped down. I wonder if she’s done it to try and avoid an investigation, thinking if she just resigns and deletes her child’s history, it all goes away?She’s been fired.
Best news I’ve heard all day (and partially makes up for Englands shocking performance).
Her child has deleted their Twitter feed all the way back to 2014.
Can’t wait to see her in handcuffs. Dr Sidbh “Megele” Gallagher will hopefully be next.
Yeah right…she stepped down cos the Board demanded she do soLooks like the official story is that she’s stepped down. I wonder if she’s done it to try and avoid an investigation, thinking if she just resigns and deletes her child’s history, it all goes away?
I hope Dr Gallagher will face consequences for her actions but could never see it in the USA sadly.
