I honestly don’t know, why weren’t they on the news last night? Has something happened in the 31 years since then? The oil field fires - which, as you say, are almost never referred to by the media these days - consumed roughly 4.6 million barrels of oil a day, according to NASA estimates: Oil...

Awesome stuff

Fair play to the ticket office, they’ve managed to take a minor gripe over the allocation for Bournemouth last season and turn it into an all-out civil war between City fans, and all they had to do was devise an extremely precise and arbitrary loyalty system that will deepen the rift for years...

Just wait until Starmer counters with “Education, education, education (education)”

Get Brexit re-done lmao

Dunno, who’s that?

The city centre is most definitely the former!

Lol, is the right to babysit a core human right now?

He has a daughter though

Hasn’t been too bad imo. So far we’ve had Nick being deeply concerned about safe spaces for women and Grendel becoming a fierce advocate for prisoner welfare!

I don’t think that’s what a trans person is, but OK.

Huh? I think you’ve been quite clear in the past that you find it unfair as a man to have to hear people share stories about sexual violence etc and make assumptions about your intentions. Do you not think trans people should feel aggrieved when people talk about them in the same way?

I see the point that you and @shmmeee are making. I disagree with the underlying suggestion that being trans should be somehow associated with unscrupulous men wanting to find “loopholes” and novel ways to attack women. Unless someone can show that that’s the typical trans experience, that...

I honestly didn’t watch it (although I’ve probably seen it before), I just enjoyed the irony of citing the 21st century’s most notorious flasher for your argument!

When someone (ahem) whips out the Louis CK routines then you know this thread is in a good place.

I don’t have daughters, no. If that’s where you’re going with this, then for the record I don’t think being childless, or being concerned for the rights of trans people precludes you from being sympathetic to the rights of women either.

So again, the suggestion being that women should be inherently suspicious of a trans women having an untoward motivation for transitioning in the first place?

Yes, which is why I find it sad that the ‘trans issue’ in this country appears to only exist in people’s minds as something to do with prison attacks and people exposing themselves in showers. Is that what we should be thinking of when we think about the trans community?

Do you not find it at all strange how quickly any discussion of trans people immediately pivots to talk of serial killers and sexual predators lurking in children’s showers?

Can’t imagine it kicking off in Oxford city centre. Unless someone did a disrespectful chant about Wittgenstein or something.
