The world has to wake up to the fact that in no way is murdering your partner and unborn child the act of a 'kind and gentle' person. It may be the act of someone with severe mental health issues, but that is no reason to say 'ah poor man'.

Can't help thinking this kind of behaviour is not going to do the cause any good at all. It's just going to compound the anti-trans' argument still further.

My mother moaned consistently about my father. She moaned consistently about my husband. (Both are no more) She moans about my brother. She moans about my son. She hates men. At the same time she says as women, we must get married and 'serve' our husbands. I never understood it.

Sounds like he gets a lot of emails. He ignores those that are way down his feed and only looks at those that are in his face as soon as he opens his email app. If he can't be arsed to read genuine enquiries, I wouldn't be arsed to query with him.

I hear that violinist Nigel Kennedy pulled out of a Classic FM concert from the Albert Hall because they refused to let him play Hendrix and instead insisted he played Vivaldi. What tossers. Hendrix was one of the all time greats.

Christmas has not been cancelled. That's just media bullshit. Christmas isn't about cramming as many people as possible around a dinner table. It's about love. If you love your family and friends don't give them Covid as a gift this year.

There's just some people you know are good. You meet them on social media and they're regular people. They don't ask anything of you or send you weird DMs. They're just nice and ordinary, good people. To all of you good people out there, thank you for being a friend.

If you click through to the writer, Samuel Rubenstein's bio you see he describes himself as 'a history student and writer currently based in Paris. He studied history at Cambridge'. He wrote this piece out of sheer envy that Snow could have 'winged' his way to fame.

A young woman with a crying baby in her arms on the bus. The baby won't shut up so she proceeds to breast feed it. No one takes any notice except the man standing in the aisle who's eyes are locked on her breast. I move directly in front of him, and block his view.

Eddie Izzard, long ago, admitted the female clothes/persona was actually all about his mother who died when he was young. This kind of points to psychological issues rather than true trans. That he can take the female persona off and play male when he wants to sort of says it all

@SoVeryBritish
I think the idea that you might be able to afford a 'nice' coat is offensive to many ordinary Brits. We see someone praising our clothes as perhaps not being able to afford nice clothes themselves, thus we play it down so the other person doesn't feel bad.
