Transgender stuff - what's going on?

I assume it's some riddler thing.

"Came out as non binary". 

 

That kind of patter is an insult to generations of people who've literally risked their lives being gay. 

 

It's like me coming out as preferring brown sugar.

 

They aren't the same thing, so that's nonsense. Gender dysphoria isn't sexuality.

Let me answer your question with a question. What the fuck has Willy Wonka got to do with anything? 

It's in the name.

[Strontium]

Willyless Wonka.

 

But seriously, there's a Willy Wonka meme, although it doesn't use that image, which is probably leading to the confusion.

There we go, knew I'd seen it before: 

 

 

Thread has loads of old stars as comic movie characters.

Not strictly trans is it? But quite depressing how badly women were treated when they wanted to make a life for themselves.

Ironically J.K Rowling had to use her initials so readers wouldn't know she was a woman. Now she's just a terf bitch.

Still, good to have a belated acknowledgement that people do indeed pretend to be the opposite sex so they can access spaces reserved for the opposite sex.

Maybe the most transphobic post I've ever read.

Probably won't make any difference at all, because it's voluntary guidance and leaves plenty of wriggle room, but IPSO have issued some guidance on covering trans issues.

FINA, the world governing body, has passed a policy (with a 71 per cent majority) barring anyone who has experienced male puberty, or who has not transitioned by the age of 12, from elite female competitions. It did so after consulting members of 152 national swimming federations.

 

This means that stunning and brave swimmer Lia Thomas is back to being 400th+ in the world.

Not sure what's worse- the virtue-signalling from massive corporations hoping for Twitter points from people who should really avoid them like the plague, or the faux outrage from grifter cunts hoping for Twitter points from people thinking they're being mobilised into some sort of common sense army righteously marching to defeat the woke hordes.

[Pidge]

Perma-offended and censorious.

The below is why I've never read a line of that George Orwell author. A mate gave me one of his books once, 1984, it'll broaden your horizons he said. I couldn't be bothered reading the book  so instead watched a bit of the show that was lifted from the book, Big Brother.  Fucking hell! I'm a man of the world but I didn't want my horizons stretched that much. What the fuck was Orwell thinking?  Plus its probably been watered down for TV.  Everyone to their own but not for me.

 

 

I dread to think what Animal Farms about.
