Eh? The point that you can only ever be happy about something if it affects you directly is patently absurd. Leaving aside that as a father and a husband it clearly does affect me. Have you ever given to charity? I ran a marathon once for a charity that had no impact on me whatsoever. Outrageous. To use an example a little closer to home, if the IDF announced tomorrow that they were withdrawing from Gaza and stopping any further military action presumably you'd be happy about that. Using your logic you shouldn't be because it doesn't affect you.

Because they care about women's rights and about the women in their lives who will be positively impacted by this? Because women will no longer be intimately searched by men? If I heard about poverty being reduced in Kenya and I reduced at the news would you find it difficult to understand why I would be doing so despite it making no difference to me whatsoever?

What is that specifically?
-
Indeed. "I know transphobia when I see it" but has zero examples. Rather like when someone throws it at JK Rowling and when you ask for examples it amounts to her calling a man 'he'.
-
Basically they can exclude men for employment reasons without being worried about getting sued or anything like that.
-
What issues in particular?
-
As I said. Must have some personal experience of it all.
-
I've literally never said that in my life. The only thing I ever said is that I could potentially support the death penalty for cases like Southport. Overall I believe that prison should include a measure of rehabilitation and particularly female prisons that are generally very different from male ones. So I'm not the caricature you've made up in your head at all. Out of interest, what is transphobic in your mind?
-
It's not complex at all as the high court has now made clear. Sex is binary and you can't change it, I'm glad you agree. Transphobia is a nonsense made up word. Men who want to put on a dress and call themselves women because it makes them more comfortable should be allowed to do so free from fear, discrimination or harassment. Many choose to do that which is their right. They should be afforded the same rights as everyone else in society and of course their rights are just as important as everyone else's we are lucky to live in a society that largely respects that. Shame on you for getting all emotional about this judgement and allowing yourself to start getting abusive and nonsensical.

Amen to that. Apparently his son doesn't talk to him anymore which is entirely unsurprising.
-
Transphobic lol. This must have really hit you hard given how you're resorting to such abusive language. You didn't trans your kid did you? Just be thankful for the women who will no longer have their privacy, dignity and freedom of association taken away. They are the ones who matter, not you and your little tantrum.

Terrorist Attacks - WARNING: CONTAINS DISTRESSING IMAGES

So just a load of their mates all together fermenting their extremism. Genius. Get them sharing a bunk with a flagrantly gay jacked bloke and see how long they last. -
You can't use the ladies loos even if you really want to. Sorry for your loss.

Many women in the UK have been forced against their will to share spaces with potentially AGP men living out their perversions in changing rooms, rape crisis centres, taken female quotas on boards and spaces meant for women in elections. There's plenty of examples of this including most recently NHS Fife which has got themselves in all sorts of trouble for pressuring a nurse to get changed in front of a bloke. The vast majority of people will now be happier that the law has been clarified and it is unambiguous that these sort of men are not allowed in these spaces reserved for women, will no longer be depriving women of opportunities on all women shortlist etc etc. That should be a cause for celebration for all women and especially the women you have close personal relationships with or who are family members. Men out of female prisons, changing rooms and all other spaces that are women only. Wonderful.
-
Still a lot to do but this is a big step in the right direction. Women's single sex spaces will now truly mean biological female as it always has done. Obviously I'm very pleased for society in general but also for the brave campaigners who fought against the odds to make this happen. Also for my female relatives and others I'm close to who should no longer have to endure this ridiculousness.
-
Don't do yourself down. I thought the point was quite a loudly made one.
-
Absolutely insane but certain people in society went a bit crazy over this stuff over the last decade or so. Very curious for people who lived most of their life prior to this stuff. Thankfully looks like it's all shifting back again and the history books can just look at this with bemused curiosity.
-
Some common sense from the UK at last. Trans women are men-a factually coherent sentence now thankfully backed up in law. Huge for women's protection.
-
Genius. Now swap the bagel shop for a jewellery shop and the bagels for diamonds.
-
We'd never be able to afford his wages.
-
No argument there. Purchases and especially not replacing most of the team after promotion was awful. I don't think we will be selling assets cheaply though, that's the one area where we have generally done alright in.
-
I haven't seen any track record from them that suggests they would be mugged off with such a low fee in this market for a top English youth talent.
-
True but I wouldn't compare any of those strikers to Lambert.
-
I'm not sure why we would accept 30 million. That would be ridiculous.
