The thing about men who become women…

ernie_lynchFree Member
Times like this I'm really glad i live in a big fecked up mad city like London.
How do you know that the Sainsbury's mentioned wasn't in London ?
So more judgemental bigotry from you Effin 😐
ernie_lynchFree Member"Back to the op with more pics please"
I don't want to see pics of the op 😐
loddrikFree Member**** me I've just looked at the bearded woman pic on the first page and thought 'i used to see a woman like that when I worked in guildford' then I noticed the logo on the bin and realised IT IS HER!!
That was a double take to say the least the first (and second) time I saw her!!!
StaberindFree MemberBack to the op with more pics please.
Pre, Post or *shudder* During?

Before and after?
NorthwindFull MemberI think, going back to the OP, that if I was to get The Op for the first time in my life I'd have the correct size hands. Seems a lot of trouble though. Maybe I could get finger implants or something instead.
MarkDatzFree Memberi aggree with elfin luking is normil but definitly gay if u they still hav pennis and u reely do want to get sexul its ok 2 be gay but u shuldnt pretent 2 b hetro if u reely wanna be gay
RustySpannerFull MemberMy ex boss was Transsexual.
Used to be a squaddy called Gary, she's now called Amanda and ran a photography studio in Middleton, last I heard.
Found it unusual for the first couple of weeks when I worked with her, but soon forgot about it until anyone else mentioned it.
Had all her tattoos removed apart from the Parachute Regiment one 😀
Still used to swear, walk and drink like a squaddy, which was quite impressive really.Very nice person, a great boss and a pretty inspirational attitude toward life.
Proper handy in a scrap too – no one expects the large blonde with the
stilletos to wade in first.PiknMixFree MemberI will never forget the day I walked into my friends room to find her hanging from the ceiling, she was pre op but was only a few months away from having the full operation.
She couldn't handle life anymore because of all the narrow minded idiots that couldn't just live and let live.
My biggest regret was she told me she was going to do this (not in so many words) but I missed the clues.
Some proper w@nkers on here spread the love people not the hatred.
tiger_roachFree MemberI have small hands so I could get away with being a woman? Trouble is I'm so masculine inside I should get my body changed to look like a lumberjack or something.
BTW, you know what small hands means? Yeah I get cheap cycling gloves when retailers sell them off as they only have the weird sizes left.
nickfFree MemberPik – tragic story, but it's probably not that uncommon a reason for suicide.
It used to be that being gay was seen as the most awful curse, but thankfully society has moved on. Have to hope that this acceptance/understanding spreads to the TS/TG world as well, though I can't see this happening other than very slowly.

How can anyone not find that funny…?
ElfinsafetyFree MemberSome proper w@nkers on here spread the love people not the hatred.
Bear in mind that STW is a haven for Little Englanders who rarely venture beyond their own safe little comfort zone, physically, spiritually and intellectually.
Some concepts are simply beyond the understanding of the narrow-minded.

i aggree with elfinSee? Great minds think alike….
ernie_lynchFree MemberSome proper w@nkers on here spread the love people not the hatred.
Sorry about your mate Pik n Mix, but where's the people 'spreading hatred' on here ?
I've followed this thread and haven't seen any examples of that.
You're probably right about "proper w@nkers" though.
ElfinsafetyFree Member**** off Ernie; there's been some pretty insensitve, puerile and childish 'jokes' been bandied about. That's what is causing the offence. I can see that.
You can't. Because of your insensitivity. You're like a bit of debris in the groove of a Scalextric track, you.
ernie_lynchFree MemberYeah I can see the puerile and childish jokes, but I can't see the 'spreading hatred' stuff.
Presumably you can't either – that's why you haven't provided any examples.
Yes men dressed as woman is often considered to be rather amusing – Dick Emery made quite a career out of his "Ooooooooh, you are awful…but I like you" routine.
In fact it's quite deeply embedded in British comic tradition, as the example of the pantomime dames suggests.
And it isn't just heterosexuals who find it amusing, gay men do too – that's why so many drag queens are gay. Many years ago I went to a gay pub where the entertainment was drag acts on a stage, it was all done for the amusement factor ie the "laughs"……..none of it was serious.
I will continue to engage in puerile and childish humour, whilst at the same time staunchly defend the inalienable rights of transsexuals……so you can poke your political correctness up your arse mate 8)
ElfinsafetyFree MemberYeah I can see the puerile and childish jokes, but I can't see the 'spreading hatred' stuff.
Presumably you can't either – that's why you haven't provided any examples.
What I can see, is childish 'jokes'. Which make the subject of such 'humour' feel uncomfortable, humiliated and hurt. The 'jokes' continue, to the point that the subject feels thay can no longer tolerate the 'humour'.
The 'hate' is in the fact that the 'joke's are designed to humiliate and ridicule. Can you seriously not see that? Or do you expect everyone to develop that building site thick skin? How long do think it would be before I stuck a chisel though some ignorant **** head if I worked there? Bollocks to turning a blind eye or develop a thick skin. Ignorance and bigotry should be tackled at source.
Two people who are the 'subjects' of this 'discussion' have expressed dissatisfaction and discomfort with some of the comments. Is that not enough to ask that people act with more sensitivity? Or is it up to you, as usual, to dictate how offended we should actually be? You ****.
ernie_lynchFree MemberYou are obviously on a roll mate …….. talking more and more sh1t.
Where's the humour that made the "subject" feel "uncomfortable, humiliated and hurt" ?
Was it grahamt's joke asking loddri whether he was worried about big hands because it makes it look even smaller ?
ffs
ElfinsafetyFree Memberallthegear – Member
Guys,Life can be challenging enough as a transsexual person, without reading STW and seeing comments like some here.
And the above comment re spreading love not hatred.
She couldn't handle life anymore because of all the narrow minded idiots that couldn't just live and let live.
Enough for you?
Stop trying to look a clever **** GG.
ernie_lynchFree MemberShe couldn't handle life anymore because of all the narrow minded idiots that couldn't just live and let live.
Enough for you?
Is that the best you can do ?
That comment refers to someone who wasn't even on this forum, so it's hardly damning of this thread.
So come on, you are obviously keen to copy and paste……….copy and paste some stuff which has been posted on here that "spreads the hatred"
Was it KT1973's joke about finding tranny porn by mistake whilst searching for granny porn ?
You need to get a grip on reality mate.
ElfinsafetyFree MemberGG why are you being such a knob? Seriously?
Rachel expressed her discomfort with some of the comments, so if she's affected by it, then it's offensive.
Or, hold on, we're not supposed to be offended unless Ernie says we can?
Get back to yer dovetail joints. You need practice; yours are shit.
loddrikFree MemberI was also wondering if women who become men suddenly become funny?

allthegear is entitled to be as offended as much as she chooses………it doesn't necessarily make her right though.
I am offended by your constant and completely irrelevant references to me being a builder worker.
They make me "feel uncomfortable, humiliated and hurt"…………I wanted to be a brain surgeon.So are you going to apologise for 'spreading hatred' against semi-educated foul-mouthed building workers ?
I find it challenging enough to be in the company of people with posh jobs – without your snidey comments..
allthegear might well be highly sensitive concerning her fairly recent transsexual decisions, but I suggest that she deals with those issues, and doesn't expect me to deal with her issues on her behalf……..I will continue to treat her like any other normal forum user on here. Which is what I consider her to be – her private and personal decisions have nothing to do with me.
And allthegear has already confessed to unfounded fears about the intolerance of others :

So the "problem" was you then ? ………since everyone else was cool about it ?
Still, since you reckon that, quote : "I'm happier than I've ever been" then I'm glad you've sorted it out

Absolutely, ernie_lynch, the "problem" was my fear of being ostracised from my friends, family / beaten up. I went through the usual assumption that "I'm alone, the only person like this in the World" etc and I was very lucky to realise that it isn't the case at all. Thank goodness for people like Pride, the Internet etc.

So Effin, getting back to you……….where's the proof that some of the stuff posted on here was 'humiliating, hurtful and hateful' ? Eh ? You still haven't copied and pasted any offending posts, and I'm fairly confident nothing has been moderated.
BTW allthegear I do apologise for the constant references to you, I'm sure that it's not what you wanted 😐
But this self-appointed leader of the PC brigade insisted on creating a song and dance and repeatedly dragging your name up.ElfinsafetyFree MemberI've said all I'm going to say and that's that. I'm bored now anyway.
I am offended by your constant and completely irrelevant references to me being a builder worker.
They make me "feel uncomfortable, humiliated and hurt"…………I wanted to be a brain surgeon.I'm very sorry that my comments have upset you.
