But the globe is not flat right?

The woke have put us women back on the "urinary leash." Regress in women's right is now deemed "progress."

F-sake. I was just chatting to two parents in the park, they are student welfare officers at a local uni. I asked if all the students have pro nouns and they said yes. So i went on my usual rant about how regressive it is bla bla blah etc and they completely agreed. Then i thought oh shit if these students are our future leaders we are all fucked because they completely buy into this. Just like the liverpool live from the 6th form common room thing yesterday where the panelists just spoke complete shite that they had been fed from

birth- including from a guy called michael the absolute premium bullshit lie that puberty blockers ‘give time’ for suffering children and they are reversible. I asked a question.... On youtube susie green is seen laughing at her son’s non developed penis because of the blockers..... no answer for some reason. Nice one further education. I’m getting less diplomatic in my language with these turds. They are f-ing turds identifying as rare gems. But they are turds. And for the children’s sake, we need some heavy duty disinfectant. Or some massive beetles to roll them away somewhere.

I very much like your style, concerned bloke. Keep up the fight.

I can't help but wonder why, if those advocating puberty blockers sincerely believe that this is a good thing, they're always so eager to assure us that the effects are completely reversible. Reminds me of the pedo-apologists who say, "nothing wrong with child molestation cuz the kids are too young to remember it anyway!" Well, if it's really just fine 'n' dandy, why SHOULDN'T they remember it? And, by the same token, why SHOULDN'T the effects of puberty blockers be irreversible? Wouldn't want all that wonderful sparkly gender-woo magic undone, now would we?

Completely. Why go after a healthy body if the problem is in the mind. It really is so dark this ideology. Placing humans above God or Nature. Whatever you believe in its a horrific violation of laws that i personally believe are beyond our realms of influence. That’s why i see it as consumerism 2.0. Previously people didn’t chose their name it was given, our bodies are given, these are gifts. In mermaids home page it has the testimonies of children. One kid bless him with all the love in the world, tells us how he chose his name on a facebook poll. That broke my heart that he’d be conditioned to think that was a rational way to think. Letting strangers chose for you. It is beyond upsetting what these people are doing to children. And all the hip students with no children think they are so progressive but they have no idea. Wait until they have kids that hate the gifts they have been given. And for what reason/purpose. Fucking internet. It was never this bad before the internet and social media started. sorry ranting again.

I don't blame you for ranting! I remember when my daughter was a teenager and got a tiny butterfly tattoo when she was old enough. I felt struck to the heart that someone had maimed my baby. It was a total gut reaction, nothing to do with intellect. I can't imagine how parents of trans children who get surgery must feel.

Well, not everyone calls it progress...

Clear thinking enables clear writing. Hence, the astounding volume of bad writing emanating from “queered” “gender” ideologues. “Non-binary” Joan’s “poem” is as ghastly as ghastly gets.

I asked Walt Heyer (sexchangeregret.com - the original detransitioner) whether my then H's brains were "fried" before he starting taking estrogen. Walt said "His brain was fried long before he took any hormones and is the case with anyone who engages in such behaviors as he has".

With such contradictory thinking it's a wonder that they manage to string a sentence together at all. But then they are all good actors in their previous biological sex: my now dead ex-H knew how to behave as a man.... He just got too comfortable in my house and decided to let the mask slip. He was incomprehensible after this.

God I hate that spaghetti ‘gender’ symbol. There are two sexes, that’s it, no amalgamations.

Stop using the "shorter queues" BS excuse - just give women more toilets! We didn't ask for more complex bodies than men have, but it's what we've got for a very good reason, so stop trying to make us a problem. Besides that, women cost less to have in the world in relation to causing less destruction to people and property as a group than men do, so also stop making us out to be an 'extra cost'.

Leaving the seat up is the least bad! Leaving it *down* and finding it covered in piss, and the floor also (which happened to me this summer) is far worse.

I hate to ask, but to be very serious is this somewhere you have to go to regularly? Did you choose or have to return and risk what might be now free-for-all facilities? I do some work in disability access. We were discussing audits and how facilities are graded and how we find out (as in some apps and websites give those details). Cleanliness is key as it is for everyone. Being immune compromised means many live with actively avoiding some places. I have had to carry around used sanitary items as places haven't had sanitary bins, like in the above photo. This is truly basic provision and not just for men with fetishes. That's where 'need' and 'fetish' seem to be confused yet again.

I once showed a confused nurse how I couldn't turn a tap or pull the tissue from the wall unit. She tried and couldn't either as you have to use your full force and both hands then squeeze in the gap by the wall to do so. She was amazed as 'hadn't realised'. I suggested that unwell or people with limits to mobility may be their core audience. And many older people don't have the muscle strength to fight with taps, doors, dispensers or bin lids. I have done this in a hotel where staff stood around as I attempted to shove a door open leaning with all my weight and they too 'didn't realise' but then all of a sudden did.

The simple answer is to not go to The Globe. As it appears many are doing. This policy is utterly silly and is discriminatory which is an odd way to be 'inclusive'.

First they came for The Globe, but I did not speak out as I did not go there regularly...

You're so right in all you say.

Re the revolting toilet, it was in a unisex toilet in a pub - and a very smart pub, too. I complained to the server at the bar.

Maybe you'd fallen into that pub in Trainspotting by some progressive wormhole. This whole 'movement' seems like one long dirty protest.

Maybe Moley could do us a gender loo spectrum? From cisterns filled with Chanel No.5 on one end and The Glob(ul)e(s) of Shite at the other. The theys could fight and pay a lot of money to get Stonewall points to feature at the 'better' end.

It's only a temporary embarrassment and no reflection on the vast majority who are being ignored. I hope the First Minister and her lackeys will go soon and with her this awful period we appear to being living through. My fingers and everything else are crossed and as we wait for the amendments to the bill to be addressed. I am still stunned at the idea it could be passed.

It’s increasingly embarrassing that Elsie mcselfie jets off to egypt to lecture about climate change when the streets of Scotland are littered with junkies and homeless and I’m run off my feet at the Foodbank with the working poor ( happening more and more )

And the strangling of language, the excuse that it’s just because they are for inclusion when in reality it’s the exclusion of women and their spaces.

This is a total idot move on behalf of the Globe a lot of their patrons are older. Most of their volunteers are older too.

Women! Reclaim your voices, never stop talking, be your unadorned self! Flood the Globe with letters of complaint. Whether tis nobler . . .

I offer this example, on new Ute Heggen YouTube channel, my retort to a Grieg-soundtracked "Girlhood in the Meadow" travesty in high heels and skimpy clothing. Not a woman, not a meadow.

I hate that all the strong female icons from history are being declared as men or non binary, couldn’t possibly be female! I’m just waiting for them to come for Boudicca (or is she too female because she had daughters?)

Oh Boudicca would have dealt with these idiots and their nonsense. Didn't she burnt Colchester to the ground? Can you imagine what she'd say, absolutely terrifying!

Obviously she was a gay transman

It's not just the Globe. Have you been to The Bridge? My husband complained when a man came out 'arranging himself' in front of our 12yo daughter. They did nothing. The signs are so confusing. I just signed my daughter up to a music programme and adding pronouns for her was a mandatory field. I've not encountered that before.

I've seen surveys that are forcing gender ideology onto people if they want to participate e.g. obligated to select a gender identity.

Expand full comment

I object every time. I find the "other" box and then give them the "third degree" on the difference between sex and gender, that I am a Woman -AHF, etc. etc. One day they might remove the "other" box and change back to just the original two choices of SEX, not "gender". Fingers crossed!

Bathrooms without bins, I guess just leave used pads and tampons there. Make a mess.

These were obviously designed w/o the input of women.

Make fake ones if you are worried about weirdos who collect such things 😉

TWs would complain it was insulting and excluded and vctimised them, because they do not use sanitary products...!?

Might respond thusly: "and yet post-menopausal women, and women who've had hysterectomies, never complain that it's insulting and victimizes them, do they? GEE I WONDER WHY"
