    Just add that to the evidence that TRA wokeness accommodates, or even emphasises denigration of the female sex.

    Love to hear people who call women “hags” lecture on civility.

    What is JK Rowling supposed to be “bitter” about? I know, forget it, it’s TRA Town.

    A ‘woman with breast implants’ would only be a problem if she then went on to say it made her a man:)

    And even then it wouldn’t be a problem until an entire political movement tried to force me to agree.

    @2 What I was thinking. Also an expert on what is disgusting? Calling a person bitter after they have been hounded and attacked with falsehoods is disgusting.

    #IStandWithJKRowling too, goddamnit.

    And since when are breast implants anything other than vain, phony indulgences for (shallow) men to gawk at, no matter who has them, excepting possibly in mastectomy reconstruction?

    I know, forget it, it’s TRA Town.

    So this made me think of Trans town, and I started wondering what a trans town would be. A city that identifies as a town? Or maybe a farm that identifies as a town?

    iknklast, are you discriminating against trans-settlements? Trans settlement rights are built environment rights! If the village where I grew up identifies as a city, then we have to accept it. So what if there are only 87 people living there?

    A trans town would be a town full of unbelievably whiny, entitled, perpetually disgruntled men with long hair.

    Claire, I would never discriminate against trans settlements! I believe a city or a village should be able to identify as it wishes. Trans towns are towns!

    He followed up with a self-aggrandizing, self-pitying notpology:

    I sincerely apologise for anything unkind I have said today in response to transphobic attacks. That was out of character for me. I am usually able to articulate myself respectfully. After being subjected to transphobic slurs, I responded in ways that fall below my own standards.

    Wow, that’s a good one – “I sincerely apologise for calling JK Rowling a bitter hag when it’s HER OWN FAULT. Also, I’m a wonderful person.”

    He took back his notpology a little while later.

    As for it being out of character for him . . .

    Hahahahahahaha! He DOESN’T know who he is after all!
