NotThePars Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 The transphobian question: Plenty of gay people are transphobic, you'd know this if you spent literally any time at looking at the LGBT movement.He's perfectly entitled to argue against gender being a spectrum and that a person's reproductive equipment defines their gender but that's literally the argument of a transphobe and if a duck quacks then... There's nothing hypocritical about calling these views transphobic. If Wings wants to publicly share views that are used to exclude trans people from the spaces they're entitled to be in and deny them the vital support they need to live then he can live with being called a transphobe. And I'm on the side of censorship over people's right to a public platform to repeatedly share oppressive views cause I'm not the alt-right but then that isn't even the argument here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's done no such thing, you're getting gender mixed up with sex. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't mean there are only two genders or what gender you're born with is the one you're stuck with forever, what's your point? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right. Except that isn't what's being said in the thing you've posted and it wasn't what Wings argued either. I'm gonna let this go cause you either don't get it or you're being deliberately wide and neither's worth the bother. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah except you posted: He's perfectly entitled to argue against gender being a spectrum And that's not what is in the article I posted, which would be my point. I'm saying he's done no such thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of a non story tbf. Quote But an EPSRC spokesman insisted funds were not allocated by the government. He said: “Research grant funding is awarded on a competitive basis, using independent expert peer review, and the pattern of our expenditure is based on this outcome." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
