The bathroom debate is absolutely fucking retarded. If I want to rape, I'm raping regardless of what the sign on the door says.

@matrix Their logic is (usually) that it's essentially a legal defense for sexual harassment, not something that enables actual rape. What they usually claim is that it enables predators to harass and objectify women, by making it legal for them to do so.
@matrix Not saying I agree with their claims btw, I'm just saying that most of them don't claim it's an excuse for actual rape

@galena
I guess you could potentially have a guy that uses that excuse to snap pictures, but that still seems like a huge edge case.
In the legal domain it's still kinda stupid though. If you publicly say you are trans, you've mostlikely already went to a doctor about it so it's wouldn't be hard to prove that a creep is just making excuses.

@matrix It's a bit complicated, imo, there are always going to be some cis people who try to abuse regulations that support trans people for their own benefit, and on top of that, there are some actual trans people who are predators too. Like, just because someone is trans, doesn't mean they can't be a predator or an abusive asshole. But then again, cis women can be abusive or predators too. Where exactly do you draw that line? Like ideally, to minimize any potential abuse, you'd exclusively have gender neutral washrooms with a maximum occupancy of 1 person at a time. Can't have any creepshots then. Personally I think that's the best choice. I hate having anyone else around me when I'm pissing, regardless of what they've got in their pants, or how they identify.

@matrix At work and can’t watch…

But I’ve never liked her. Some years ago she put Count Dankula in the same category as Richard Spencer and proved to the world she was a dishonest lying bitch.

I don’t keep up with idiots, but once in a while I’m obliged to see something of hers and it’s almost always bullshit.

@shebang
It's a stream, but the video itself is over an hour long and Sitch and Adam haven't made it too far. It's about JK Rowling and her "sex is real" tweet. I don't want to poison the well, so I'm unsure if I should give you my summary of what they've watched so far.

@shebang
But she essentially does the same with Rowling as she did with Dankula by citing some insane feminist from the 70s claiming that transsexuals are raping women by assuming their identity

@matrix I'm pretty familiar with JK Rowling's opinion on transwomen, she's written articles that I've actually read. There is room for nuance if someone would just ask her though.

Eh, she's got a pretty bad attitude but at the same time I cannot muster enough energy to care what some old lady across the pond thinks.

I thought this was all old news anyway.

@shebang
Yeah, I never talked about Rowling in relation to this because her statements were always worded kinda weird. There's an implication in there screaming at you but it's hard to tell what exactly it's implying.

@matrix Yeah. Even in her articles she's not entirely clear.

I mean, there is also the ever present problem: is she talking about Tumblr/Twitter retards or actual trans people? Twitter would never ask.
@matrix @shebang lmao imagine not wanting to poison the well, my entire personality is 90% well poisoning
@matrix When did he ever have any legitimacy?
Him and Sargon really are proof that a nigga can just ramble on incoherently for an hour and people will think he's a genius

@comfy
A bit. She was one of the more level headed leftists which even got her in trouble with her own crowd.

@matrix Did Contra have any legitimacy in the first place?
