I hadn't realised Tommy's was a racist organisation, you can book a 1-1 call but not if you're the wrong colour.
That's 2 reasons why it's gone down in my estimation (I'm sure some new dad's do get depressed but don't compare it what some women go through).

Woman pretending to be a man!
« Reply #361 on: May 24, 2023, 03:02:51 PM »

A woman who pretended to be a man in order to deceive a woman into having sex with her has been convicted.

Blade Silvano used an unknown object and wore boxer shorts when she sexually assaulted the victim whom she met online, Cambridge Crown Court heard.

Silvano claimed to have never met the victim, telling a jury the relationship was based on fantasy and roleplay.

Good to hear the cycling governing body has now said only biological females will be allowed to race in female contests and the males will be open to all

If the woman is non-binary she's not a lesbian. It does get confusing.

have two trans women friends who are both in lesbian relationships. It may sound strange but they have both gone through really difficult times to finally become who they needed to be. It is fabulous to see them finally happy rather than living the lives they were before, trying to conform,  being thoroughly miserable in bodies which just didn't feel like their own.

Haven't read whole thread but what the heck is wrong with a gingerbread man?   ;D

Woke has gone too far, it's actually sending the truly woke back to sleep.

There's an article in a Sunday paper about a boy/girl who now regrets transitioning and believes that most are lesbian  ::)

Trans women were men  :-\ ? so how can they be in lesbian relationships ....... that's surely heterosexual?

This is exactly why changing gender is so risky in those who are too young to know,in the future we're going to have people want into go back to how they were at birth,I mean it's happening now. Yep,change to a woman to become a lesbian,oh puuuuleeease 😩

Lets get this straight [C what I did]

Women are born with a vagina, womb and potential
Men have a penis - enough said

Some girls find that they prefer the company of girls - men also hook up with men

So far so good ............ I read today that brains don't stop developing until the age of 20-25 so making such diverse decisions purely on a 'feeling' can be dangerous.  Some children feel that they are 'in the wrong body' from an early age: i.e. 2-5 - after which a child begins to develop a feeling of 'self'.  Before the age of 5 humans can't be influenced in the subject of gender.  My Uncle was dressed in velvet dresses until the age of 6, a fabric that he hated ever after!  [born in the early 1920s].  It was the fashion, it didn't make him anything other than a man.

Why can't parents suggest that their young children wait - without putting pressure on to dress either way?  There were certain fabrics especially wool that my sister couldn't wear as it irritated her skin, she also undressed all her dolls.  But no-one gave any thought to any 'what ifs'.  We had shorts for Summer wear on the beach, otherwise it was dresses.  Dad wouldn't allow his daughters to be seen in trousers  :o
