    Of all the people you could target, I think you'd want to be especially dense to dedicate your time to harassing a lawyer online.

    I could understand Graham Linehan getting into an argument with Stephanie Hayden because he's well-known but Kate Scottow isn't. So why did Kate into an argument with Stephanie?

    Isn't he/she the same one whos there's no record of their supposed legal qualifications and was actually challenged by a transexual real solicitor to prove their credentials and wouldn't?

    Whatever about this case, this Hayden one is an odious individual when you look into it

    Calling a trans person their old name.
    Thanks for clearing that up. (Puts away mass card)
    Why not former-naming?

    Stephanie Hayden? Would that be the same Stephenie Hayden who used to be known as Anthony Halliday and was convicted of assault with a golf club amongst other crimes. But shush, we can't talk about that as that was their previous identity. In fact, what I have just posted is what people are being charged with.
    You can talk about it and I'm sure Stephanie would be happy to talk about it too and the place she was in when she did that.

    Then why did Karen Scottow get into an argument with Stephanie Hayden on Twitter? There's no indication that Karen has ever met Stephanie in person.

    To be honest, I really don't have much of a clue about who this person is, and have only just googled a bit about her now.

    Regardless of what type of person she might be, my point was that I think spending a significant amount of your time devoted to harassing a person online is quite a stupid and petty way to spend your life.

    But to go one further, and to target somebody who either is a lawyer, or if not, someone who is going to make themselves busy enough to demonstrate they know their law in order to screw you over, just seems next level silly.

    I just don't understand how people can be so infuriated by other people's text so as to get so involved to their own detriment. :confused:

    Imagine the psychological harm that children born from trans men (e.g. Thomas Beattie) may suffer because of the circumstances of their conception.


    Just because surgeons can make pregnancy take place in these cases it doesn't mean they should.

    Why would the circumstances of their conception psychologically harm them?

    Presumably because some people will go to great pains to explain to the child how abnormal they are. We had the same arguments against gay adoption. Basically, "It's unfair on the child because people like me will be forced to slag them for having two daddies."

    They won't have to - because children conceived in that way will start asking all by themselves.

    Sweet Jaysus... is this still going on ?

    Arguing against the majority on reality is never going to end well.

    And then what? Children, in my experience, tend to be accepting of things that may seem very unusual to you or I, as their world view isn't cemented yet. I think it's fair to say that you're engaging in baseless concern trolling. As you were.

    Sure a lefty website, Vox, Vice or Huff post, can't remember which one, published a guide on how to preform Cunnilingus on pre-op M-F transexuals, sure you could not make it up, the mental gymnastics these folk go through are unbelievable

    Wow, the MtF pre-op setup is so different to the normal kind you have to do gymnastics to go down on someone? Sounds fascinating. Seriously though what point are you trying to make here?
