I should get up so I can breakfast, shower, shave and make my way to Manchester for the protest...

I defy ANYONE to tell me they did NOT read this in Gollums voice!

@penwing love it.

The question is always "define a woman" not "and how will you determine if she's a woman without being a human rights abusing creep?"

[penwing@wandering.shop]

@sortius they try to answer it that second question in the guidance... Basically, "there is no paperwork so looks and vibes will be good enough we guess"

[aoanla@hachyderm.io]

@penwing @sortius the depressing thing is that that admission that there is no paperwork was the *improved* answer after they were taken to court over the original

@penwing Chaser Gollum vs Grungler Smeagol

[sortius@mastodon.social]

@penwing geez, if I just went by vibes I'd probably get banned from the local queer bar

Purely because that's just not good enough. Lotsa masc cis women, fem cis men, and whatever you can think between, before they start talking 'vibes' on trans people

[aoanla@hachyderm.io]

@sortius @penwing you'd think that even though Labour don't care about trans people, they'd care about cis women [since they have an actual manifesto pledge to act against violence to women and girls], but no, apparently collateral is also fine as long as they're hurting the trans people.

[sortius@mastodon.social]

@aoanla @penwing gotta love having to have paperwork for your gender.

Not sure how I should fill that one out. Cis dude, masc energy, single dad, obsessed with raising my kids, socially mindful, smiles a lot.

Am I dude?

[sortius@mastodon.social]

@aoanla @penwing yep, gonna be a lotta creepy dudes demanding to "see what's down there" from cis women. Already happening in the US
