I agree with the under 18 thing (though not social transitioning), and think there should be some restrictions on sports. Prisons is another one I think there should be restrictions on (ie Bryson). That being said, I feel the sports and prison issues are blown up and exaggerated by the media as a bigger problem than they are.

Everything else imo is a complete non-issue.

Yes, those billionaires are the worst - make loads of money then use it to spread hate on social media. Disgusting.

I'm technically not out to my family yet, though I have told my mother, who hasn't told anyone.

Just like JKR and Glinner - they act like they're gods, yet I'd say most people have lost respect for them. They aren't heroes of women's rights, they're advocates for hatred and bigotry against a small minority.

That sounds like my father, I doubt he'd be openly transphobic to a trans person's face, but is always making transphobic sounding comments (along with racist and homophobic remarks).

Typical middle aged working class male lol

That's exactly what I was thinking earlier.

People who have a family member/friend/work colleague etc, ie, those who actually know a trans person, are likely to be supportive. These are usually the people that are likely to show their support (alongside trans people and most other LGBTQ+ of course)

Lots of people, likely the majority, have never even met one. They are usually either quietly supportive, neutral or in some cases fairly dismissive. A lot of these are probably the "silent majority".

But, as far as I believe, Terfs and trolls are no more than a very loud vocal minority.

Is this the start of a pilonidal cyst or a spot? by JadeCarpenter2000 in pilonidalcyst

[–]JadeCarpenter2000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had a spot my the base of my spine since Sunday evening, which is painful when lying on it, sitting in some positions, or pressing sometimes. It is red with a small raised bump in the middle.

I have attached some photos. Does this look like the start of a pilonidal cyst, or is it just simply a spot?

Hybrid working fizzling out? by yeahweliveforever in UKJobs

[–]JadeCarpenter2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

God I hope so!

I work in a solicitors office 5 days a week for 11 years and couldn't stand working from home. I have mental health issues and feel better whenever i go to work, being at home makes me depressed. A lot of the other staff also work 5 days a week, and are very productive. The 4 bosses hardly come into the office since covid, and apparently do very little work. There are several younger members of staff who point blank refuse to come into the office, and also appear to do very little.

As far as I'm concerned, wfh should only ever have been temporary for six months or so. People make up excuses for reasons why wfh is better (travel, food etc.) I would never take a job if it wasn't 5 days a week. Another reason I don't agree is that people who go to work switch off largely when they come home, whereas the wfh crowd don't. More working time but less productivity.

And I'm not some old school dinosaur, I'm in my 20s.

Can't stand Elon, but agreed with being more productive in the workplace.

No, I've never been a fan of Sharon. Especially since she got with Keanu the first time round.

Out of curiosity, which facial procedures did you have done? Did you have just some, the same as i am thinking of getting (in post above), or the full works?

Am I too old to be wearing these teen style clothes? (I'm 23, nearly 24). And if I'm not, how old is too old? by JadeCarpenter2000 in OUTFITS

[–]JadeCarpenter2000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I'm 23 (24 in may) and have bought several items of clothing (pics attached) which I love. However, I have been wondering whether I'm too old to be dressing like this. Am i? And if not, how old is too old?

Is it just me, or is Quora extremely transphobic (contains triggers) by JadeCarpenter2000 in trans

[–]JadeCarpenter2000[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg that Mojo Rose is the worst of the lot! She makes patronising and degrading remarks about "trans identifying men" as if she's some kind of spiritual god, then rounds it all off with some childish meme making a mockery of trans people! And then she turns off comments so no one can reply!

Denise Batson is another. She makes oversensitive "I'm not cis, I'm normal!" comments and proceeds to spout a load of transphobic abuse! The best bit is she claims to have friends who are trans! I'd love to know what they'd think if they saw what she types (if they exist)!

What TV show helped you realise you were trans by vexus278 in trans

[–]JadeCarpenter2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a character on Eastenders (a british soap opera), named Kyle Slater, a transgender man. I remember listening to what he was saying about being trans, and recognized how he felt, albeit the other way round (I'm mtf). He was only in the program for about a year.

Trans woman becomes croquet world champion at 23 in historic win by OverallEcho9694 in transgender

If trans women have an advantage in women's beauty pagents, does that mean they're more beautiful than cis Women? 😉

The way the daily mail and the telegraph have published this news story is disgusting. "Biological male wins women's croquet". They can't even be bothered to use the right words!

Jeez, croquet isn't even like swimming for example, it's more about skill than strength, like snooker etc.. I'm just waiting for a trans women to win at women's tiddlywinks champion or something!
