Now sometimes offensive

Posted on July 09, 2020 by

The rapid regression of civilisation continues apace, readers.

Because it ought to be noted that it’s not the concept of homosexuality that’s being deemed offensive there, nor the word itself, but specifically the definition of it.

In other words, a dictionary just said “some people are offended by facts”.

There are no prizes for guessing who’s responsible for this, of course – the transcult. We already knew that they considered the words “lesbian”, “gay” and “bisexual” to be “transphobic”, along with just about everything else on the face of the planet, so we suppose it makes sense that the umbrella terms had to go too.

(Alert readers will have spotted that the “T” which only attached itself to “LGBT” five years ago has now declared that all of the “LGB” part is evil bigotry, like a baby cuckoo throwing all the other chicks out of the nest to their deaths so it gets all the food and attention to itself.)

The concept of homosexuality is so problematic to trans ideology – and therefore has to be obliterated – because it implies that sex exists, and if sex exists then the whole foundation of transgenderism collapses, which is why JK Rowling was subjected to such a mindboggling barrage of abuse recently for saying no more than that sex was indeed real and maybe it was a bad idea to pretend otherwise.

These aren’t even nearly the worst:

Yet as we’ve previously noted, under the Scottish Government’s proposed new “hate crime” laws, it’s Rowling herself who would be liable to prosecution in the wake of such tweets, for “stirring up hatred” in unarguably gigantic amounts with such “offensive” comments as the suggestion that homosexuality is a real thing and that lesbians are allowed to reject people with penises as sexual partners.

(The same thing applies to gay men and people with vaginas, of course, but for some reason nobody is ordering gay men to sleep with women in the way that TRAs demand that lesbians sleep with men or be attacked as “genital fetishists” and bigots.)

The fact that a dictionary is now reinforcing that possibility by saying that facts in and of themselves can be offensive – not even when they’re being quoted by people in an argument, but merely by existing – is a new and worrying development for anyone with more than two brain cells to rub together.

And as ever, if you still don’t grasp why the outlawing of reality and its replacement with idiotic gibberish enforceable by law via the magic power of “offensiveness” could have a catastrophic impact on the cause of Scottish independence (here’s a clue: think about some other words that might be redefined as intrinsically offensive), we urge you to start paying attention and figure it out before it’s too late.

    It will indeed be JK Rowling and her ilk who may end up with a 7 year prison sentence for saying that sex is real and women exist. Those sensitive souls whose tweets you post above are protected under the Hate Crime Bill whereas women are not.

    And why have they picked on homosexuality? I see the same dictionary hasn’t done this with heterosexuality.

    I also see they haven’t said the definition of slavery is offensive.

    What bunch of idiots work at MW? The definition of slavery is not offensive but the simple act of homosexuality existing is deemed to be offensive but only sometimes. When is it offensive and when is not? Some clarity on that would be nice.

    Of course, they should just remove their stupid addition.

    It’s largely because they’ve realised that their best bet to preserve the Union is to keep Nicola Sturgeon in office. They know there’s absolutely no chance of a Unionist FM for the next five years, so the next best thing is an SNP one with no intention of actually delivering independence. They’re worked out that if they damage her too much she might get replaced by someone a lot more dangerous.

    I think this post sums up the very essence of what’s wrong with politically-correct ideology, and I entirely agree with it. As someone who has always been at the extreme progressive end of the political spectrum, I believe in science and facts. I also believe in using concise, accurate language, calling a spade a spade, and in freedom of expression. That’s impossible when you can’t say this and can’t say that in case certain people take it upon themselves to be offended. I don’t understand how words themselves can be offensive. True, they can be used inaccurately and in order to cause offence, but so what? Why should people have the right not to be offended? People are stupid. They have odious and repugnant opinions. They’re ugly. They’re incompetent. If we take this to its logical conclusion, we won’t be able to say any of these things, regardless of whether they’re true or not.

    Sorry if this is confusing – I’m confused.

    I’ve previously thought that the word ‘transphobic’ was an inaccurate term because it implies *fear* of transgender people, rather than *hatred*, in the way that ‘anti-semitism’ implies ‘hatred of Jewish people’. (‘Islamophobia’ means *fear” of Moslems, but, again, is often used to mean *hatred*.)

    I don’t think many people actually hate transgender people as a broad category, but I’m starting to think that ‘transphobia’ is in fact an accurate word for a totally rational fear of a subset of abusive transgender males within the broader category of transgender people.

    They are denying reality and we should indeed fear them.

    We just about got the Religions stopped making us believe stupid stuff or face punishment and a long come this lot to start demanding we disavow the evidence of our own eyes and instincts , believe and behave or pay a price.

    However if beardy men want to be ladies and they are not going to
    behave like the poor creatures we see on twitter etc then I have an excellent suggestion.

    When a “trans” person, type states that they are now a lady a mobile medical unit should be promptly deployed and when the bearded lady, thing confirms their new status, signing on the appropriate document of course, the tackle should be whipped clean off then and there.

    There would be two benefits to this public health approach, one: men who want to be ladies get their wish very quickly, there then is little argument that they are indeed a lady.
    Second: those who really are not ladies will withdraw any such claim on seeing the tackle removal unit.

    Thank you for once again being a clear, but forceful, voice of reason on this. I saw that it had changed and though the claim is that dictionary definitions change regularly or new meanings are added, as you say this is different.

    This is what so many people, even some of those opposing self ID, seem to fail to get – it has potential to affect all of society as we know it. It is capable of reorganising everything, especially when we know the powerful forces involved in pushing it and how quickly they have succeeded so far. And far from being a’non issue’ for independence it is at the very heart of the independence movement now in Scotland. The SNP has opened the door to that by starting this and not insisting on steering a middle course of more help for genuine transsexuals but insisting on safeguards, and with their policies written interchanging sex and gender, confusing everything, badly worded, badly drafted, badly thought out. It’s not enough that it might not get through Holyrood, even if it doesn’t look at the damage already inflicted.

    SEXUALITY AND EXISTENTIAL-PHENOMENOLOGICAL METHOD

    ABSTRACT
    In this paper I explore the intercorporeal phenomenologies of Jean-Paul Sartre, Maurice Merleau-Ponty and Simone de Beauvoir by thinking through their views on being-with-others and sexuality.

    For Sartre our being-for-others is always revealed to us in conflict as shame and we are stuck thinking of the other as either a freedom or a body. Merleau-Ponty, however, offers us the notion of sexuality as an atmosphere of meaning we can undertake that affects our entire lived being (body-subject). Beauvoir reveals to us the gendering of the erotic encounter and thus a new way of phenomenologically experiencing ourselves and others as bodies.

    KEYSWORD:
    freedom; erotic encounter; intercorporeal phenomenologies; sexuality

    Justice unmasked: A semiotic analysis of Justitia

    Abstract
    Values such as justice, fairness, reason, and truth permeate the cultural fabric of societies. A key image of these values in many Western democracies is the legal icon of Justitia or Lady Justice as she embodies notions of justice.

    Examining such cultural constructions promotes discussion of assumed values and meanings pertaining to iconic representations. Semiotic analysis of Justitia and her compositional elements – the sword of justice, scales of justice, and blind-fold reveal tensions between the rhetoric and reality of our interpretations of justice.

    This paper makes explicit the iconic representations of societal values imbued in Justitia and raises questions about the invisible power of cultural reproduction.

    Keywords:
    Icon; values; justice; right; semiotics; Law

    The England daily deaths or scarce and sometimes only spoken on the BBC news or appear without comment on the scrolly thing on the bottom of the screen.

    Then at the end of each day the four UK cards in the pack are shuffled and through sleight of hand ‘voila’ they all disappear and become one card, the UK death card.

    One of the most exhausting aspects of this nightmare is having to constantly go back to first principles for every new high profile player who enters the debate. For example transatlantic showbizzies like Stephen King and George Takei who dip their ignorant toes in a technical debate that JK Rowling and her concerns about GRA reform and the Hate Bill has tried to keep on track. The tippy toeing around definitions is where the moral cowardice of those who should know better eventually leads.

    Meanwhile some in the the SNP are capitalising on ignorance to promote and obfuscate what is going on here. Everything is becoming muddied and muddled with false equivalence and clownfish analogies. The lack of technical scrutiny is frightening and inevitably descends into screeching about feelings and emotional blackmail about suicide.

    If Godwin is the lowest point in political debate then supposed suicidal behaviour in trans teens who don’t get the drugs, surgery and medical collusion is a close second. It is repulsive the way the nightmare of mental distress leading to suicide is used as currency for those who want to promote their argument and should know better. Remember the GRA reform wants to remove psychiatric assessment for vulnerable people wanting to use gender reassignment to get away from their distress.

    Newcomers to the debate often confuse the lack of workplace and civil rights and discrimination of gay and non binary people across the world with our legitimate right to scrutinize the proposed legislation in Scotland. The new hate Bill rides roughshod over years of hard won equal rights that already exist in Scotland with safeguards. Our laws are not for example, US laws, and the way they are constantly conflated is deliberate and malicious.

    At the centre though there is always a group of entitled cry man-babies at the root of most of these attacks amplified by women like Rhiannon Spears and Fiona Robertson who crave their approval and enable their misogyny while telling us they are representing us. People like Billy Bragg who dazzle with their ignorance and rigid adherence to the idea that because they marched against the Poll Tax they must be right on this.

    The clowns in the SNP pushing this absolute hateful HOMOPHOBIC gender nonsense should be booted out the party.

    I am gay, a homoSEXual male. I am not ‘queer’ or trans or cis, FFS. No, none of that. I was around when being gay was still effing illegal in Scotland (legalised, with caveats, in 1981), and it was a long hard fight to get equality. Now, we have clowns telling us that I do not even exist.

    Until very recently, it was gay pride (as it was when started), not ‘queer’ pride, not ‘LGBTQQIAA+++’ pride. It is such utter p*sh, it is hard to understanmd how the SNP could even think about going down this route.

    Gay men everywhere need to wake the f**** up as to where this will lead. You are literally being erased, and this idiotic Scottish SNP government, are about to introduce a new law, which will mean defending youself as a gay or homosexual or lesbian will be considered hate speech and could see you in jail. It is that real.

    People – especially gay men really need to wake up. For heaven’s sake folks, wake up.

    Now that all the gay rights organisations have been taken over by the transcult loonies, they do not stand up for gay folk. Only the LGB alliance is now actively defending gay rights. Stonewall is now the enemy, obsessed with silly cis/trans rubbish, to the absolute exclusion of gay men and lesbians.

    And lesbains is what I do want to talk about. They have benn utterly abused and treated in the most appalling fashion by groups that were previously or are still supposedly standing up for gay rights (looking at you stonewall). Let’s never forget the rock solid contribution which lesbians made in the early 80s, when AIDS was an epidemic. When young gay men were dying each and every day (and back then, death came very, very rapidly), often abandoned by their families, it was LESBIANS who stepped up to the mark and worked to help gay men. We owe them a debt of gratitude.

    So, SNP, I used to be a member of your party, but hell will freeze over before I even give you the time of day (ditto the ‘greens), because of this stupid illogical, science denying, homophobic, reality denying gender rubbish. You are being duped, big time, and seem too damn stupid to even realise what is being done. It is a nasty, nasty duplicitous agenda.

    “The concept of homosexuality is so problematic to trans ideology – and therefore has to be obliterated – because it implies that sex exists, and if sex exists then the whole foundation of transgenderism collapses”

    This is so bonkers it defies belief.

    I have what gets termed “gender dysphoria” (I have an issue with that term as really, now I’m older, I realise it’s not about “gender” in the sense of gender stereotypes, it’s much more complicated than that. It’s about the relationship between, for want of a better description, your inner and outer self.). The one thing that *is* critical to it, whatever it is, is sex. It’s a feeling your inner self, internal monologue, whatever you want to call it, doesn’t match your outer body. Where it comes from, I have no idea. It started with me long before I knew anything about gender roles and stereotypes and persisted despite the ’70s and ’80s being remarkably free about gender presentation. (It started before I even remember, with me apparently making my family laugh by insisting I was going to be a man when I grew up). It was a gradual, horrible realisation around the age of 7 or 8 that the man I imagined myself growing up to be couldn’t possibly exist.

    Obviously in the ’80s, none of this was trendy or known about, so I just donned jeans and played with the boys and got called a tomboy. Teens and early ’20s were hell, and in my ’20s I researched transition and seriously considered it as an option. In the end, for a variety of reasons (what it would do to my family; how difficult it would make my own life later on; how much more difficult it would be to form friendships etc) I decided it wasn’t the right course and I would live with it.

    Now, as a mid-40s woman (and it’s taken this debate to make me use that word for myself) I’m so glad that’s the decision I made then, and so glad I had the time and space to grow up, experiment, explore, “find myself” in the old terms no one seems to have time for anymore. And myself is a woman by biology – something which is fact, reality, and has so many implications for health, safety, day to day living etc, it shouldn’t even need stated – who is nevertheless deeply uncomfortable with that, and has no truck with any of the social roles and stereotypes expected from it. Which is hell in your teens and ’20s, but liberating by the time you’re in your 30s and 40s. It’s perfectly possible be a non-transitioned, gender dysphoric person who is perfectly happy that way.

    If sex didn’t exist, whatever GD is, and whatever makes anyone trans – ie someone who is one sex but it doesn’t feel right to them – would not and could not exist. Trans is literally about sex, and feeling so strongly about the factual reality of your own sex you want surgery and medicine to try and appear and feel the other one. The end result of abolishing sex would be abolishing trans and ending the entire debate. Which would be lovely, but sadly sex cannot be abolished because it’s a reality. And it’s the foundation of genuine GD and transsexualism. These new activists appear to be neither of those, and have zero understanding of either. They’re just pink and blue sexist stereotype zealots. It’s the most regressive ideology I’ve come across in my lifetime.

    Sorry for that stupidly long post! Hadn’t quite realised the length it reached.

    Being Sexual: Existential Contributions to Psychotherapy with Gay Male Clients

    ABSTRACT:
    This paper outlines the existential-phenomenological (E-P) approach to psychotherapy and considers some of its core concepts, the stance taken to understanding sexuality and the implications for therapeutic practice with gay male clients.

    Three previously published case studies are reviewed to provide illustrations of the approach and the paper concludes by arguing that a non-pathologising view of sexuality is useful in assisting clients in therapy and in assisting therapists and services in understanding their clients with out problematising them.

    Reality is far more interesting and wonderful than their myopic and reality denying philosophies will ever know or realise. Those of us who do not deny reality may have to build reservations for these people while the rest of us get on with building the future.

    It reminds me more of the Chinese Cultural Revolution. Academics were arraigned in kangaroo courts by their students accused of teaching ‘bourgeois’ subjects. Had signs hung around their necks and forced to grovel to be allowed to keep their jobs let alone their lives. Many were countrified presaging the Khmer Rouge’s pogrom against the educated when wearing glasses could get you shot outright.

    It took more than 30 years for Chinese universities to work their way back into reality again using people sent overseas for their PhD’s. Those who did not have to stay away because they wrote letters supporting the Tiananmen protests. It was during my PhD and people were being found positions to keep them so they didn’t have to go home. I saw the fear in their eyes. We had two Chinese students connected with our lab.

    Fortunately Woke is a purity cult and they never last since NOBODY can be pure enough. Remember even Robespierre went to Madame Guillotine. They will self destruct if we can hold them off long enough.

    We are doing better than they are in the US. Our Feminists are more organised, more used to organising. I am in awe of many of them on Twitter. Twitter has stopped me liking posts as I find myself doing so on their threads so often.

    I have tweeted things which have gotten women in twitter gaol or banned and nothing. Because I’m male and a declared Biologist. I don’t have a job to lose so I have no fear of them. I’m 6′, very fit & broad shouldered so TRA’s with pink baseball bats do not scare me.

    It’s awful. Kids don’t need loads of confusing nonsense about gender: kids are girls or boys, that’s their sex. What they need is not to be constricted or differentiated by their sex in what toys they play with, how they’re treated by others, what they can aim for or achieve, what colour clothes they need to wear. That won’t cure or prevent gender dysphoria, because the real thing is just not that simple. But it will stop so many “gender non-conforming” kids (eugh, that we even have that phrase in the 21st century 🙁 ) thinking they’re in the wrong body, and allow genuine GD kids to live happily in their own skins as children. No kid should ever be told they’re playing with the “wrong” toy, or can’t wear that because it’s for girls/boys.

    @Cath

    Thank you. Your post was so informative and illuminating.

    Would that we could all just live and let live without the oppressive stereotypes and belief systems that our young have been condemned to adhere to. Being comfortable with who you are, ‘Bien dans sa peau’ is something we all seek. However as you say, you knew what you were feeling was more than that. We are learning all the time from people like you who speak out about how their personal and individual lived experience is hijacked by those who seek to make it an ideology.

    I’ve read some accounts of detransitioners – children who both feared and hated the way the world reacted to them in their body or had abusive life changing experiences that they associated with their sex and therefore sought to divest themselves of that ‘skin’ so that it would not happen again. Children for whom puberty was not just the uncomfortable experience most of us feel but a terrifying unwelcome metamorphosis that they were not allowed to adjust to.

    Their individual stories were often harrowing and I wish them the peace you have achieved.

    In the 70s we were probably more liberated than we realised if only with regard to appearance. We wore flares, college jumpers, had feather cuts that grew out and so occasionally it was quite difficult to tell who was what. Did we feel less female? Absolutely not. Were our male counterparts any less male, again, No.

    This recent overly sexualised exaggerated drag type idea of femininity, slavishly followed by many young women – almost ‘performative femininity’ – must sit really uneasily with any young women who feels she does not identify with any of that. How easy it would be to feel that a male or androgynous body would be more comfortable and to be encouraged it was more than that?

    It might seem trivial but I was first aware of the regressive return to pink and blue when Lego started making ‘sets for girls’. I was reminded again recently when I saw a programme about Lego and they had realised that girls left Lego around 8/9 years old and devised special sets to keep and capture the ones who didn’t just want to build stuff anymore. A marketing decision that possibly had far reaching effects.

    The rest is history and and now look where we are.

    The huge fight that has kicked of due to the proposed GRA changes is doing nothing to help reduce transphobia. Name calling on both sides has been hateful and unproductive.

    I’m curious to know if you consider yourself a transman? Transmen have barely been mentioned in the debate so far and are often overlooked in the usual arguments.

    Any thoughts on how we can improve the GRA that would keep both sides of the debate happy?

    I’ve said everything I want to say in my original post.

    However, by way of analogy, imagine people with, let’s call it cancer X started to say ‘We have certain needs that aren’t being met, and it would be great if people listened to those.’ But, rather than actually listening, an entire swathe of people who’d never had cancer X and had no clue about cancer treatments all decided that *this* was the one cause they must all leap on and ally themselves to.

    And, after a few years, for every person trying to speak who had cancer X, there were 100 people who’d never had it and knew nothing of it shouting over them, speaking for them, telling them they’re wrong and just don’t understand their own condition and are actually “cancerX-sufferer-phobic” if they don’t go with the prescribed lines of their “allies”. If people were demanding over and over of them “BUT YOU HAVEN”T ANSWERED MY QUESTION ON WHY EXACTLY YOU FELT…”

    Do you think those people would be useful allies? (That analogy only scratches the surface of how this debate harms actually gender dysphoric and transexual people, as well as kids who are neither but are being sold “trans” rather than allowed to simply be gender non-conforming), but it might help you understand and think about your own actions and questions.

    Wings, I know that you are new to this debate, but as a gay man who has been dealing with tirades of abuse for the past 4 years over this subject, I would recommend doing some more research.
    You stated –
    “The same thing applies to gay men and people with vaginas, of course, but for some reason nobody is ordering gay men to sleep with women in the way that TRAs demand that lesbians sleep with men or be attacked as “genital fetishists” and bigots.”

    This is categorically untrue. I draw your attention to a page called – The Boxer Ceiling. It was created to share with the world the abuse that gay men are currently receiving from TRAs. The same attacks that lesbians are under, so are we. Except I don’t remember ever seeing “all cis lesbians should die” plastered all over the Internet in the same way that I have for gay men. Search twitter comments for Cis gay males and prepare to be shocked. I have come off of twitter in protest as they themselves refuse to ban any of these commentators for what they’ve said.

    I’m glad to see that this has come to the general public’s eye recently, But please do some more research into it. The radical feminists will say it’s all men’s fault, but after some proper research you can see that it’s across the board. The problem is who’s controlling the conversation on this in the U.K. atm, and it’s the same people who believe that misogyny is a hate crime yet misandry doesn’t exist.
