Rule 4 - Be Nice

So another thread relating to trans rights has been locked under Rule 4 ‘Be Nice’ , but shouldn’t hatred directed at trans people be actually deleted? The thread was going really well with lots of trans, gender fluid and queer people supporting each other, but as usual the cis hets dive in to invalidate us. The mod response is not to target the prejudice but to lock the entire thread! This is wrong. Can we trans and queer and pride people on the spectrum not have a safe space here? I know the mods have a policy of non-deletion but this is wrong, were racist comments being made I’m sure they’d pounce on that pdq, but hate against trans people is unchallenged and left to stand. Apalling of you NAS!

  • Anyone fancy a holiday in Bakhmut with me ..the minibus leaves in 10 minutes.  I just thought a place like that might be a welcome rest from the constant fear, uncertainty and risk that exists on this particular page.....no matter whether you are Russian, Ukrainian, gay, straight or any other shade....or even if you don't have any skin in the game!  Talk on this matter is simply too dangerous these days.  It makes me sad.

    Number.

  • Can I bring my dogs?

    But in all seriousness I try and stay away on these discussions. If I had it my way there would be no divide on race, wealth, gender, sexual preference, disability and whatever else people see themselves as - were all human and I wish we could all see that and learn to live alongside each other. 

    Im often worried I’ll unintentionally say the wrong thing, the ever growing abbreviations also confuse me. And this is coming from someone with a transgender family member who I love unconditionally. 

  • Daft question Zoe....dogs are ALWAYS welcome in my world - invariably to the preference of humans!  Hop in, slam the doors & lend me a dog for a cuddle.
