Monday 29th March - Airports Are Transphobic THE INDEPENDENT: A transgender model has complained about ‘transphobic’ airport security systems. Rosalynne Montoya is a trans-identifieid male who describes himself as a model, make-up artist, influencer and content producer. Last week he uploaded a TikTok video complaining about transport security after he confused one of the scanners at Los Angeles Airport.
Thanks as always, JL, for this depressi... I mean, fascinating insight into the world of egomaniacal, self-centred, short-sighted, self-important, demanding, grasping male narcissism.
That Guardian article is both hilarious and enraging. I honestly couldn't decide if it was satire! "I wake up in the morning and my first thought is that I need to be SEEN!". Well, that's the joy of only having to 'identify' as a woman. Us actual woman have far more important things to worry about!
The person that wrote that drooling, dribbling moronic article (For the Guardian) has previous form in this sphere. Sissy porn writing and discussions...
Still, right at home at the Pink Guardian I suppose...
My mum had an Auntie Sissy. I never met the lady - she was long gone by the time I came along - but I've seen photographs. She was a vast mountain of a woman with a cantilevered bosom, a huge red face and arms the size of beef sides. She seemed permanently cross and, whatever the weather, was always buttoned into a tight woollen coat that could barely contain her corpulent frame. Whenever I hear the phrase 'sissy porn' I picture mum's aunt rolling down a substantial girdle bellowing "I HAVEN'T GOT ALL DAY" to a terrified skinny man cowering in the corner.
And that, of course, is most certainly preferable to the reality.
Well... you're not female, are you? These things be are bound to happen when you insist on lying about reality. Duh. If your friends and family want to go along with your delusion, that's up to them, but to expect society at large to do it? Very narcissistic.
I would like to suggest that in future the airport in question - no, I'm fact ALL airports - install newer, more up-to-date scanning equipment so that this never happens again. We need more inclusive machinery, clearly. and not the bigoted systems of AI scanners that we have now. I mean, who designed these machines - JK Rowling? Graham?
In cannot be beyond the wit of cisgenderman to invent a scanning system that recognises LadyDique.
When you Google his name, there are two pages of this airport story on various sites etc. Were I a cynical type, I might ponder he's also shamelessly self-promoting, too...
gearing up for a lawsuit to pay for a neo-vagina? btw I'm afraid to fly and I had no idea that the machine could tell whether you have a penis or not. How detailed are these things...feels like those old "x-ray glasses" ads
I seem to recall a bit of resistance when they were first installed due to the privacy issue. I think the image the scanners produce is quite detailed so it instantly recognises when there's something there that shouldn't be. Because that, of course, is their job!
lets make all airport security trans friendly ..in fact lets do away with any security, passports, searches, immigration etc - wont it be a happier and friendlier place!
I just listened to an amazing interview with Debbie Heyton. It was important for me to hear her point of view because I’m finding myself gardening against trans “rights” simply because they are infringing upon the rights of others. I loved what she said about writing laws which legislate “people’s right to do things, not their right to be things.”
amen to that. For all that goes into helping them transition from one sex to the other almost no effort is going into helping them transition from mental illness to sanity. In fact collectively they have gone off the deep end in the last decade. Why is this (j/k, it's the internet, it makes all groups of self-entitled men --incels/MRA/gun nuts/pedophiles/whatever-- exponentially worse when they are exposed to others with their own brand of depravity). Exponential derangement factor.
Yes! A delightfully inclusive world of lovely wonderful fluffiness and inclusivity and diversity. A thoroughly inclusive world where anything goes because a small group of activists demand it. A world with no borders, no restrictions, no personal boundaries, no private or safe spaces, especially for females... How inclusive!
A friend of mine suggested that Montoya could have been patted down by a member of airport staff with a penis who, for the duration of the search, identified as female. Perfect solution! 😏
This was the part that made me the most enraged. A woman had to pat down his penis which is a violation of her rights just so he could be validated as female. If she’d refused I bet she’d have faced a disciplinary ☹️
Yes, I'm sure no woman would dare refuse. Just had to grit her teeth... Reminds me of Lily Madigan bleating all over Twitter a while ago that he'd been frisked by a man when going to G-A-Y. Someone asked how he knew it was a male bouncer. Oh I did laugh.
And this is another example of a computer-driven machine being transphobic. First we had the facial recognition software and its system as transphobic, now the airport body scanners.
Who knew that Artificial Intelligence could be so bigoted?
The airport equivalent of "unidentified item in the bagging area" in a loud computerised voice. Oh, how we laughed 😂🤣😂. If only! And that comment on a boner in a dress pic got me my latest 30-day Facebook ban 🤣👿
In the part about Natalie Bird, you write "just for expressing her belief that trans-identified males should be accommodated in women’s refuges." Maybe you mean "should NOT be accommodated"?
Also I feel really silly now for thinking that the MRA/TRA nuts didn't know about or respect the women's sports part of Title IX, it's clear now to me they are absolutely and intentionally trying to deliberately abolish Title IX, as made clear by this case https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/546081-lgbtq-students-sue-department-of-education-over-religious-colleges There is method to their madness. That's infuriating to me and really underscores the MTRA have real animus toward women...this is being done under the imprimatur of LGBT so the misogynist gay males with all the money like Stryker and so on are behind actions that hurt biological women.
That Joe Rogan segment is amazing from start to finish, thanks for posting it...it breaks my heart he sold out to spotify and now can't cover topics like this, he was way before his time and educated on the issues but Spotify essentially has defanged him with regards to this.
The airport security thing - yeah it's stupidly petty, but even more silly because they assume they wouldn't be flagged as a male? They didn't even wanna try but I'd bet they would anyway 'cause the times I've flown with men, more often than not they get stopped and fondled lol... just part of having a cock.
Thanks as always, JL, for this depressi... I mean, fascinating insight into the world of egomaniacal, self-centred, short-sighted, self-important, demanding, grasping male narcissism.
Thanks, Mole! Sorry to be the bearer of idiots & narcissists on a bank holiday Monday!
Oh, I'm used to it. Just read that ludicrous US Guardian article that no-one outside of Stonewall thinks is real....
"Celebrate transgender day of visibility by looking at me, specifically"
*rolls eyes*
That Guardian article is both hilarious and enraging. I honestly couldn't decide if it was satire! "I wake up in the morning and my first thought is that I need to be SEEN!". Well, that's the joy of only having to 'identify' as a woman. Us actual woman have far more important things to worry about!

It most certainly is! I warm towards your aunt. And that is a much preferable mental image that you so well describe.
"Montoya insisted on being scanned as female"
Well... you're not female, are you? These things be are bound to happen when you insist on lying about reality. Duh. If your friends and family want to go along with your delusion, that's up to them, but to expect society at large to do it? Very narcissistic.

I know... 🙄 Imagine the sense of entitlement required to think that terrorism prevention should revolve around your dick.

That's a great way of putting it.

What could... possibly... go wrong?
(Did I mention 'inclusive'?)
A friend of mine suggested that Montoya could have been patted down by a member of airport staff with a penis who, for the duration of the search, identified as female. Perfect solution! 😏
There you go! A sensible solution for a difficult moment! WE SHOULD ALL LEARN FROM THIS!!
That or get the sniffer dog to do it... (Assuming the dog isn't transphobic, of course...)

that is perfect. LOL
And this is another example of a computer-driven machine being transphobic. First we had the facial recognition software and its system as transphobic, now the airport body scanners.
Who knew that Artificial Intelligence could be so bigoted?
Hmmm, well, clearly airports and security generally must “believe people when we tell them who they are”.
Next time I’m at an airport I intend to repeat “I am not a bomber” at the top of my voice.
Do let me know how that works out for you!
Will you visit me in prison?
I'll bring a cake with a file in it! 😉
The airport equivalent of "unidentified item in the bagging area" in a loud computerised voice. Oh, how we laughed 😂🤣😂. If only! And that comment on a boner in a dress pic got me my latest 30-day Facebook ban 🤣👿
🤣 "Bagging item in the unidentified area..."
Are you banned again?! Thought I hadn't seen you around! 😏
Back to back bans for a year now! Some trincel somewhere doesn't like my posts for some reason 🤔😜
Oh mate! Maybe this will make you giggle...

🤣🤣🤣 Yes! Those hand-held wazoo things (instead of pervy patdowns) to detect meat & 2 veg 🚨🚨🚨🍆🔊🔊🔊
Hi JL! I think you mean “no conflict they said” rather than “no comment they said,” when discussing Holly Lawford-Smith’s website
Thanks for the stellar update as always!
Thanks, Mórrígan! You're absolutely right - now amended. (I'm going to sack my editor!)
In the part about Natalie Bird, you write "just for expressing her belief that trans-identified males should be accommodated in women’s refuges." Maybe you mean "should NOT be accommodated"?
Thanks, Jaydan. Now amended. (I'm going to have stern words with my editor... 😊)
small happy victory from the US I just read about https://adflegal.org/blog/court-rules-professor-cant-be-forced-endorse-ideology-against-his-beliefs can't even express how happy I am the court found this professor can't be compelled to use the pronouns.
Also I feel really silly now for thinking that the MRA/TRA nuts didn't know about or respect the women's sports part of Title IX, it's clear now to me they are absolutely and intentionally trying to deliberately abolish Title IX, as made clear by this case https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/546081-lgbtq-students-sue-department-of-education-over-religious-colleges There is method to their madness. That's infuriating to me and really underscores the MTRA have real animus toward women...this is being done under the imprimatur of LGBT so the misogynist gay males with all the money like Stryker and so on are behind actions that hurt biological women.
That Joe Rogan segment is amazing from start to finish, thanks for posting it...it breaks my heart he sold out to spotify and now can't cover topics like this, he was way before his time and educated on the issues but Spotify essentially has defanged him with regards to this.
I think that court ruling just sends the case back to the lower court. It still has to be tried there, if I am not mistaken
The airport security thing - yeah it's stupidly petty, but even more silly because they assume they wouldn't be flagged as a male? They didn't even wanna try but I'd bet they would anyway 'cause the times I've flown with men, more often than not they get stopped and fondled lol... just part of having a cock.
