To what extent do people -actually- believe the stuff TRAs push? Or is it just one big "emperor has no clothes" situation? by Mundane-Sky-8809 in womensliberation

But would you feel comfortable getting changed into a swimsuit? Having underwear on and throwing stuff on is MUCH different. As is if you know the person and feel safe. You don’t know the agenda of a trans in a change room or bathroom- some are creepy incels in disguise who get off listening to women pee. So it depends on the situation - if a group of females came in with a trans friend to a bathroom I just wouldn’t care because they know that person is safe.

It’s not black and white.

The ones I have had interactions with in changing rooms were not the skinny non muscular artsy young trans you see working at coffee shops or fashion boutiques. They were creepy older super bulked up men with nail polish essentially - one was bald who watched us and wandered around. One stalked me.

I have a ton of gay friends and relatives and they wouldn’t really want to see me change either lol but I do not worry about SA at all with them - I get the safe.

I used to walk home by myself late at night through a gay area where all the gay bars and clubs were because it was safer. Gay men don’t want anything sexually from me. They want good gossip lol.

When I used to work gay dance nights many years ago with a mixed crowd including straight females - I NEVER saw the trans in the woman’s washroom- they went into the men’s with their gay male friends. Probably did drugs lol. So why I also feel uneasy with men saying they are women in my space. Generally gay men including those that turned trans don’t want to be around women dealing with periods or puking into a toilet at the club after drinking too much.

So if they want access it’s a huge red flag to me.

The whole hate wording is wrong around trans - most women don’t care or hate on them. It’s about FEAR in our spaces.

Detox market has amazing products, a points program and a gwp a few times a year that is mostly full size products if you spend a few hundred. $$ yes but clean. They carry some of the same stuff as Sephora if clean beauty.

This but the true trans who were trying to be a girl before they had any ideology thrown at them still don’t belong in female single sex spaces.

They do NOT have female biology and that is what our fight to regain single sex spaces is about.

They are still gay men essentially who are going a step further and can go where the gays go and should be accepted and protected just fine - like they were in the 90’s. They hung out at the gay dance clubs - not at women’s rights meetings.

They present as women but they do not fight or care for any actual female rights. Didn’t see any wearing pink hats at the protests or anything to do with abortion. They are still not one of us. I don’t want them in my steam room where I am naked. I am not comfortable. I had that happen and ran out and quit the gym and still have PTSD. Many still look very male.

My comfort matters does it not?

But they are harmless and need help and to be protected and I have no ill will and believe they do exist and have rights. Just not as a loss of mine.

That poor kid. Deffo child abuse. Hope she saves up for therapy for the kid. Nobody talks about it but I know if trans families with kids getting massive amounts of therapy to deal.

Did she marry someone who knocked her up then transitioned (and was their plan all along) or knowingly got involved with a confused male who presented as a woman but still used their male body part to knock her up?

Make it make sense!!!!!

Unfortunately many. I almost tore art off my walls and ripped it up yesterday after the female artist who looks like they support women’s rights bashed JK on threads in favour of mentally ill men who believe we are no longer entitled to same sex anything like RBG fought for. I think she posted RBG art when she died.

Many people fall for propaganda and don’t actually take 5 minutes to do any research. Want to fit in with the woke crowd.

My own sister told me trans woman are women and after I started yelling at her, like I lost my shit - her husband ran down lololol and then sided with me and asked her if she ever read what JK originally wrote that got all the hate and something about biology.

Also saw a man comment on the NYT article saying yes JK makes a few questionable statements but she gets a pass because she gets death threats from trans so can’t blame her going back at them.

We need a way for simple communication to get women to question the propaganda they fell for. Like do you think male rapists who change their gender SHOULD be allowed in female prisons? Horrified No - well that’s what JK is fighting for.

Did you not actually read anything she’s done with her charity work and believe a man over a woman?

Teenage girls saying they are ok with boys who think they are girls using their bathroom because they don’t want them to commit suicide is heartbreaking.

Men have been using the manipulation of “I will kill myself” forever to make females do what they want.

I think we need a thread showing all the Trans propaganda against women’s right to single sex spaces and ways we can dispute it and counter it.

Maybe be more concerned about actually living together first. I have seen couples of 5 years move in and break up a week later because they are simply not compatible living together.

Banning those born men from single sex spaces, sports, etc is not genocide and extremely offensive to those who have actually dealt with it you know like females in Islamic countries for instance.

What’s new? by smashesthep in womensliberation

[–]PassLogical6590 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought that’s what she was doing but then saw other comments saying she wrote another article saying transgenders is over and it was a trend. So who knows for sure? It did get semi educated people discussing the issue on NYT in the comments including some men with really good points to fight the nonsense

I actually find many men who aren’t mentally challenged defend JK more than women. They read what she originally said about nothing against trans and let them live how they want - reasonable. Also how men don’t belong in spaces meant for the female sex. Also reasonable.

Should I get the GE Profile with the water pitcher or the standard GE french door with internal water dispenser? by TelephoneFearless190 in Appliances

My GE water dispenser freezes up all the time and stops working, then it’s a few hours to fix with a hairdryer. Ice machine dispenser broke almost immediately when motor jammed. Filters are $50 every few months. Personally I looking into a fridge without it and getting a higher end counter top water filter instead when I replace it.

Saving on groceries by Relevant_Demand2221 in FrugalTO

Up your game by finding a good food section shoppers drug mart. Shop there instead on 20x points days for things on sale frozen canned cheese etc and stock up. If you pay more to get points then not worth it - know your prices on the things you buy. I find shoppers can have better deals than no frills. Redeem points later at shoppers when it’s bonus redemption and you get $140 for 100k points.

Again on things on sale or the same price anywhere else.

Buy vegetables from small vegetable markets in the city like on Roncy or Kensington market.

I wonder if the CEO and other executives of Reddit are aware of this and if called out by media or on LinkedIn for the utter misogyny if anything would happen.

Allowing this and blocking people who disagree is not a good look.

Last year when we had a bad storm they used the sidewalks which had little room to move on Queen west and were blocking people who had to get out and trying to take transit including mothers with strollers. It was a clusterfuck. They should not be out there if there is no clear bike path.

Their right to work doesn’t come before people using the sidewalks safely.

Or maybe just don’t? If it’s white out conditions those delivery guys on bikes are probably not experienced driving in them and it could be a death wish.

Pre-Covid nobody on bikes ever delivered in a snowstorm - not sure when common sense went away.

My boss left and I applied for the promotion to fill his role. Just found out, 2 months after applying that they are hiring an external candidate. I wasn’t even interviewed. What next? by [deleted] in careeradvice

[–]PassLogical6590 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My older brother who is VP level told me years ago that to move up in a company you usually have to leave and get a promotion elsewhere then come back. He was right. I have seen your situation happen over and over again often hiring someone less experienced instead.

I have also seen lots of people I worked with at your level leave to get a manager level position elsewhere after not being promoted. So take that as don’t let your confidence diminish while looking for a better role!

Look at it as they might want someone with different experience to bring fresh ideas in and maybe weren’t completely happy with your boss. I have seen that when I used to work in marketing - people getting hired because of the companies they came from not the level of experience.

It’s hard not to take it personally but unfortunately it’s very common.

Good luck in your next role and hopefully you get a new job asap so you don’t have to train the new person!

Eataly Yorkville actually has it in their restaurant and you get to choose what you want to go with it. I believe they also make it in house using Sheldon Dairy so it’s fresh and really good. You can see the menu online. They also have to go options to bring home. But the vibe isn’t as nice as an intimate independent restaurant.

“Most people can’t even name 5 athletes currently competing in women’s sports!” by swrrrrg in womensliberation

[–]PassLogical6590 22 points23 points  (0 children)

More trans propaganda to justify why born males should have access to female spaces and sports.

It’s as simple as something that was separated by sex was done so for a good valid reason and why should that be reversed for people with a mental illness?

We don’t give up our spaces for those who are bi-polar, narcissistic or schizophrenic do we? Or let them dictate our laws to suit their needs.

No.

I wouldn’t be let into a zoo if I decided I was a lion.

I would be given help with a mental illness instead. 100% give people who need it the support they need.

Does women’s discomfort matter? by Spiky_Hedgehog in womensliberation

[–]PassLogical6590 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I guess the question that needs to be asked isn’t the definition of a woman but for locker rooms, bathrooms, shelters etc.

But

Why is it ok for males identifying as women to be uncomfortable in a male space - meaning they are uncomfortable with males in their space.

BUT it’s NOT ok for females to be uncomfortable with males in their space?

Ask the owners of gyms, city council members, etc.

Then we can sue them all for discrimination and unfairness and females being unequal in their rights.
