I quite agree - I wonder how many trans people there are in societies in developing countries where vast numbers of people live hand to mouth and spend their days just trying to survive. They don't have time on their hands to waste naval gazing and ruminating over which gender they feel like being that day or any other day. Too many youngsters in the developed world are spoilt and pathetic and feel the world owes them something - it doesn't. I'd like to airlift some of these idiots to the middle of nowhere (think Australian bush), drop them off and let them sink or swim. Wonder how precious they'd be about their bloody pronouns then!! The whole bloody lot are ridiculous and so are the parents who indulge this nonsense.Again, I've found the discussions here really interesting and informative. Same as the JK Rowling thread. I've always felt that a lot of these teens are people with too much time on their hands and what they really need is a dose of reality - working to pay taxes, rent, bills. But then I'm just old!!!
And!!! Are Transvestites still a recognised group? Do people still identify as transvestite? Or do they have an other name now?? Like women do??
I think a lot of us were idealistic as teens and open to all kinds of ideologies as we grew and found our feet. The difference being, my generation (late 30s) didn’t have a world of views at our fingertips 24/7, and big business with an active interest in pushing certain views and destabilising countries. We could cut ourselves off and just live without having to prove our alliance to anything. Now everything is about belonging to an identity, likes and follows. Narcissism mixed with social justice = conflict.I quite agree - I wonder how many trans people there are in societies in developing countries where vast numbers of people live hand to mouth and spend their days just trying to survive.

Wow. That really has summed it up for me, that there is an exceptionally small fraction of 'trans' people (who I imagine aren't actually trans, they're vile misogynistic pricks) who are just masquerading under the guise of being trans in order to spread hatred and division. The author of that Whatsapp message sounds deeply unwell. It's all so sad and frustrating for actual trans people who 99% of the time are absolutely harmless! This is two very separate issues IMO.Like her or not these messages sent to Posie Parker are deranged and unwarranted, what the duck.
Yes, I agree. I grew up in the 70s and 80s and back then the only thing I really felt any pressure about was whether I liked the same pop groups as the cool kids so that I could feel included and not left out. However, pretending to like a particular pop group to fit in with others did me no harm or lasting damage, whereas I strongly believe that all this gender stuff is deeply harmful to developing minds and bodies. I am sure that in years to come this subject and period of time will be viewed as scandalous, much as we view it as scandalous that the Victorians displayed mental patients like zoo animals. We have organisations and people in power who are supposed to protect children from harm and I feel they are failing the current generation of children and young people by allowing organisations like Mermaids to flourish.I think a lot of us were idealistic as teens and open to all kinds of ideologies as we grew and found our feet.

You know, I have a slight problem with the idea that violent, aggressive and misogynistic trans people “aren’t really trans”. They SAY they are trans, therefore they are trans. Take them at their word.That really has summed it up for me, that there is an exceptionally small fraction of 'trans' people (who I imagine aren't actually trans, they're vile misogynistic pricks) who are just masquerading under the guise of being trans in order to spread hatred and division.
Interesting point, I know what you mean. I suppose I was trying to say that they are tarring all trans people with the extremist brush, in much the same way the extremist Muslims have for peaceful Muslims. But yes, I guess it is possible to identify as trans and also be a raving bleeping maniac hole.You know, I have a slight problem with the idea that violent, aggressive and misogynistic trans people “aren’t really trans”. They SAY they are trans, therefore they are trans. Take them at their word.
To deny that they are trans is to deny the truth: that it’s possible to be both trans and dangerous misogynists, and a significant proportion of trans people (well, I mean trans women specifically) are like that.
I think this is a problem with the Left generally: the belief that you shouldn’t criticise a marginalised group, and any bad apples must be cast aside from that group before you can criticise them.
This might be a controversial comparison to make, but whenever Islamic extremists murder innocent people, the response is always “they aren’t true Muslims”. Except... they are Muslims because they say they are (albeit violent, radicalised ones). I don’t see the problem with acknowledging that.
I agree with what you're saying but I think when people are doubtful of someone being trans, it's because we're looking at it in the old style definition of trans, I.e transsexual. The new definition of trans can and does mean anything. A man in a dress can say he's trans and a trans women. When in reality, he's a cross dresserYou know, I have a slight problem with the idea that violent, aggressive and misogynistic trans people “aren’t really trans”.

I wasn't aware of that! I watched her channel 4 documentary a few years back about her facial feminisation surgery and she genuinely seemed like she had GD, so I was very sympathetic. Such a shame she seems to be no better than the rest.By the way, I forgot to post this earlier in answer to another comment but Munroe Bergdorf is extremely toxic and has a long history of abusive behaviour
didn't understand that tweet but that man is a gross misogynist. It's scary to think of all his female patients in his care.This man is a GP!
He really really hates women and the GMC don’t seem to give a tit.This man is a GP!
Interesting. Further to that Glinner post re Damian Barr & Baroness Nicholson, this has just appeared on my Insta stories timeline... Mr Barr isn’t quite what he seems.Hypocrite of the Year
Damian BarrThis week yet another woman was 'cancelled' after a co-ordinated campaign against her by trans activists and their celebrity enablers. Baroness Emma Nicholson was diagnosed profoundly deaf [https://www.politico.eu/article/baroness-fearless/] (she has only 8% hearing) when she was a...glinner.co.uk
This is well worth a read. Trans activists going after a 78 year old woman
I do believe Emma Watson too but she’ll jump on any bandwagon.I’m not on Twitter because I absolutely hate it for its woke agenda and fake account tit stirring, but does anyone know the proportion of men to women “correcting” JKR on her tweet? I’ve only head of Daniel Ratcliffe and Stephen King who are both obviously men.
