I only briefly looked at it for maybe a month
Some very extreme positions being passed off as acceptable behaviour on both sides.
Lord help Impressionable minds of this generation. The Internet is great but its so open to abuses.

It's not going to be had in one sentence posts on twitter and Facebook mind.
Where does that start with people who say there are only 2 genders and refer to trans women as men?

That would be a very short debate.
Conversely, how much of a debate can you have with those adamant that genetic biology can be ignored and that sex/gender is a malleable concept?

Unfortunately, we live in a world where everyone's position has to be distilled into three or four sentences. This issue can't be, at least not sensibly.

Sorry, but that is actually mental. The amount of doublethink required to come up with something like that is off the charts.

There are 2 sexes, that's unarguable
Gender identity you can believe you are male or female, even though personally it seems more like a mental illness to me.I don't entertain people who think they are horses etc
How you define trans people is relevant to the discussion at hand for me. I work with a man who chooses to identity as a women. They are living their own life and affecting nobody. I'm quite happy to use their preferred pronoun and their chosen female name.
In the case of biological males that are choosing to take women's places in society, unfairly in my opinion, in that context I will say he is competing against she etc as its the defining point in the discussion.

It's just something else to devalue women in society
Whether it's a bi product of the trans movement or a goal its very much taking place.

I personally know 1 lady who would regard this as hate speech. She is nuts :lol:
It's pretty sad that you can't even have a rational conversation with some groups without the "transphobic" bs bandied about.

And women in society at large
They have to find away to support one group without penalising another.
Shouting and name calling from either side isn't the answer.

The irony of it: most of the cunts who have an issue with these kind of publications, brainwash their children in other ways, with Bibles, Qur'ans etc.

Gammons gonna gammon, sadly.

Coupled with the fact that your average darts fan is extremely thick, it’s a minefield out there.

The attention it's garnered is definitely wild. The infamous tweet has plateaued at 17.7 million views, and the Deta thread on here has almost treble the views of the next highest thread.
