As A Woman, Just Like You, His Preferences Override Yours
Lifted from the comments – which you’re reading, of course – regarding this rather animated chap and his gushing sisterliness:
And if you ladies would rather not find Camp Creepy Manic Guy in your bathroom or changing room, this is, he insists, proof of your own “internalised misogyny,” and it’s “up to you to unlearn” your foolish female ways. Because, you see, it’s “patriarchy” when women don’t want to get undressed in front of a mentally ill man. To avoid said “patriarchy,” you must submit. To him.
He describes himself, modestly, as a “gender educator.”
Update, via the comments:
Chappie above, James, is apparently an “actress.” And “annoyingly hot.” As you can doubtless tell from his pretty nails, which he seems to regard as some ultimate measure of womanhood, and from the numerous videos of him parading around in his underwear while somewhat tightly wound. And remember, ladies, our “gender educator” only feels like a woman sometimes. So those visits to your bathrooms and changing rooms could go either way. A comfort, no doubt.
Update 2:

Lefties project.

It’s quite the inversion.
Still, it’s good to know that a man lecturing women, telling them that they don’t know their own minds, and that not submitting to men – specifically him – is actually “patriarchy,” is now the height of intersectional feminism.
Isn’t he special? All I see here is raging narcissism in search of attention. I had to tap out at 0:42. I couldn’t stomach another second of it.
A comfort, no doubt.
Just the guy you want to see follow your 10-year-old daughter into a ladies room.
I wonder–what gender will he choose for his mugshot?

But he has so much to teach us. Albeit inadvertently.

Spout the latest gender incantations and presto, he’s a wizard?
I suppose it’s more glamorous than just being a plain-vanilla bisexual. And it certainly opens more doors, so to speak.

Explains the hopefully self-appointed gender educator:
It’s important to recognise that we can’t tell someone’s gender by their presentation, by their genitals, by the way that they look. All of that can be changed. All of that is arbitrary. None of that is central to your identity.
So, in other words, it is impossible to tell whether what appears to be an obvious man in a women’s bathroom, a changing room, spa, and on at least one well-known occasion, letting it all hang out, and in front of minors no less, is in fact an obvious man?
And likewise, if it isn’t “central to your identity” whence the histrionics surrounding being misgendered? (The waiter with “They” earrings, as just one online example).
The false media narrative and trope around transpeople is that we are predators that are tricking people into thinking we’re something that we’re not.
While very clearly not everyone who is trans is a predator or has any predatory inclinations, the whole enterprise does seem to pretty much revolve around getting others to accept that they are something they are not, at least on some level.

The high-security wing of transgender TikTok is not for the faint-hearted.
Identical in every respect to the stunning and brave dude winning the NCAA woman’s swimming championships without even having to use his long legs leaving 2 Tokyo Olympic medalists (with vaginas) trailing in his wake.
Woman of the year candidate material. Both of them.
All of that is arbitrary.
As our host would say, the word ‘arbitrary’ is doing some heavy lifting.

I, I didn’t have a whole lot of expectations for this meet. I was just happy to be here; race and compete as best as I could.

Heh.
While very clearly not everyone who is trans is a predator or has any predatory inclinations…
I meet supposedly intelligent and thoughtful people who will quickly and easily pivot from “Don’t let the bathroom controversy make you hate all trans people, because not all of them are predators” to “Segregating males and females into separate bathrooms and changing facilities is an arbitrary social convention and therefore there is no logical reason to cling to it”.
I was thinking about the insulting terms “bleeder” and “vagina-haver” and “prostate-lacker”. The problem people who use those revolting terms have, is that they’re trying to express “adult human female”, but they can’t use the traditional term, “woman”, because they’ve repurposed it to mean “man who doesn’t want to be a man”. (What? Oh, right. I guess it’s “man who doesn’t want to be a man, or person who wasn’t ever a man”).
Maybe they should just use “adult human female” and cut out the insults and references to body parts and functions.

Well, that too, but that would be transphobic and misogynist. Or something. Can’t have that.
Arrgh! Do not comment before coffee! If you delete my 12:48 comment, David, I will fix the horrible grammar.
Horrible grammar isn’t as bad as forgetting to close the italics tag.
Deleted, as requested.
Feminists have the past few decades gone so far as to say that a dirty joke on campus was enough to get you expelled or your fraternity disbanded (like one fraternity that hung a banner encouraging parents to drop their girls off there and got in big trouble), that a long look (the male gaze) was “assault”, that even if the sex was consensual if the boy didn’t follow up with flowers it was assault, and so on. Consent was all the rage. And just like that, a physically appearing man can go in the ladies showers and it is no big deal. While it is true that having separate male and female showers is a social convention (in some parts of Europe they have coed saunas, in Germany long ago at the Berlin airport I saw a middle-aged women in the men’s restroom cleaning while in use) a small group forcing the abolition of separate facilities is not a good way to get social change. The claims that it is not a problem because not ALL trans people are predators is completely missing the point, because, as just pointed out, you can’t tell who is trans really, it need not be all of them to be a problem, and women do not (and I repeat not) like getting undressed in front of XY people or seeing a penis in their private space. I also emphasize that very very few trans go so far as to get castrated and get a fake vagina.
Anyone else note the crazy eyes on this guy?

“only feels like a woman sometimes.”
Shania Twain hardest hit…
what gender will he choose for his mugshot?
Whatever it is, I doubt it will shave.
…people who will quickly and easily pivot from …
Which is no accident of course.
And in one sense at least I think there may be reason to be grateful to the likes of Lia Thomas, Laurel Hubbard, and, USA Today‘s ‘Woman of the Year’, Admiral Rachel Levine.
Perhaps it’s ironic, but the kind of ‘Live and Let Live’, ‘You do you’, ‘Each to his own’ etc. approach which many have taken to be both essential to and a sign of a tolerant and welcoming society is precisely the same attitude that a certain kind of activist finds to be hypocrisy, even bigotry in disguise.
The implications of which are pretty dismal.
I also emphasize that very very few trans go so far as to get castrated and get a fake vagina.
If he doesn’t have sufficient commitment to womanhood to get castrated and get a fake vagina, he doesn’t have sufficient commitment to compete as a woman. He’d still win even if he did, but there’d be a lot fewer men pretending to be women in order to score cheap records if this were required. And they wouldn’t be able to expose themselves in women’s locker rooms.
Gender fluid? I think he’s down a quart.
It’s like one big shit test.

I was going to call it a Motte and bailey, went to look it up because I can’t remember which is the motte and which is the bailey, and then realized that the metaphor is precisely backwards when it applies to trans activism, because it assumes that the activists are the besieged rather than the besiegers.
In the defensive formulation, the castle (the truism the defender retreats to) is defensible but dull (“Being dark and dank, the Motte is not a habitation of choice”), and the land around the castle (the titillating claim that flatters its proponent and slanders his enemies) is where the defender wants to return to make hay when the attack has been waited out.
But trans activists aren’t defenders. The power of states and corporations isn’t being used to pry into their intimate spaces and search their wardrobes. On the contrary, they’re using the power of states and corporations to get their exhibitionism into intimate spaces where consent hasn’t been given to them.
In the besieger-centric variant of the metaphor, the attacker has easy access to the surroundings of the castle, public spaces of trade and conviviality, and that’s all he claims to want, but it’s boring. What he really wants is full access to the private spaces, not as a guest obliged to be grateful and not overstay his welcome, but as an insider, with all of the trust, intimacy, esteem, enthusiastic consent, and right to define “who we are” that would naturally be granted to him if the insiders were truly committed to living the claim that he’s welcome, and it’s not just a lie of politeness.
The false media narrative and trope around transpeople is that we are predators that are tricking people into thinking we’re something that we’re not.
I’ve absolutely gotten no answer to my oft stated request: Tell me the objective test that separates out the “sincere” trans-sexuals from predator males.
I don’t care what identity the male who deliberately exposes his penis to a 10 y/o girl claims, he is engaging in criminal behavior. Period.
And soon one arrives at the insanity of a hospital refusing to acknowledge that a rape took place within its healing walls because there are no men in the women’s ward. I am Argus, rolling all of my many eyes. @@@@@@@@@@@
in Germany long ago at the Berlin airport I saw a middle-aged women in the men’s restroom cleaning while in use
Started seeing that at gyms here in Florida 10-15 years ago.
Meanwhile, earlier today — One of the Navy’s newest sailors: grandson Sean graduated, Great Lakes Naval Center.
I’ll just sit over here and beam proudly for a while.
Just learned that I got hired for the Eau Claire project. Um, yay?

And why must we accept that “social change” is inherently good?
We should not accept “they do it differently” as sufficient grounds for changing what we do. And have you noticed that the Bien Pensants never reverse the thinking and defend our conventions as preferable?
Furthermore, conventions and traditions have value and are worth defending: They are the accumulated wisdom of countless generations. If the Bien Pensants like Europe so much better, let them fuck off to German or Spain or wherever.

Understood!
The separation of mens and womens toilets and changing rooms has never been about sexual matters. Gay men use male facilities. Women don’t cause any trouble in male ones. Little kids don’t count as male or female and use either.
It has always been about safety. Sexually active males are not a safe thing to have in a female toilet or changing room. Their supposed gender orientation doesn’t change that.
Unless they’ve had the operation, they need to stay out.
Because, you see, it’s “patriarchy” when women don’t want to get undressed in front of a mentally ill man. To avoid said “patriarchy,” you must submit. To him.
Lol. That.
Lol. That.
And yet that is the gist of what he’s saying. And that’s before we get to the body language and non-verbal communication – the hands, the fingers, the unconvincing smile, the near-permanent smirk. Or the fact that he likes to make videos, lots of them, while parading around in his underpants.
It’s like one big shit test.
As noted before,
But hey, he’s obviously a real woman. I mean, he’s wearing nail polish.
It’s like one big shit test.
Ya think?
