This person is now non binary why? Because they're unattractive?

They're also now queer? Do not recall any female partners being mentioned in the article, except a fantasy about an old actress. Sounding like she is scrabbling around for an answer to her incel problem

What's a "cis penis"?

1: non binary because within the demographic that’s very into this identity stuff, any perceived rejection of gendered norms is seen not as widening the scope of what is acceptable for members of your sex, but as stepping out of your sex. There is social credibility in doing so, so people with low self esteem can gain positive reinforcement through identifying out of their sex.


2: her “queerness” is why many LGB people have tried to distance themselves from the trans rights movement. She is not using “queer” as a reference to sexual orientation, but as claiming that there’s a club she belongs to, which really does amount to brightly coloured clothes and declaring pronouns


3: a “cis penis” means a penis belonging to a man who doesn’t believe he’s a woman.
The usage here clarifies that for all the talk about “queerness”, she’s sexually only interested in males.

What she’s unfortunately doing here is
A: demonstrating that she’s ripe for sexual exploitation by a bloke claiming to be non binary
B: signalling that she REALLY wants to be in a “lesbian relationship” with a penis belonging to a man, which would affirm her queer identity (another reason many actually gay people object to this nonsense)

The issue is mostly with the guardian for being such enthusiastic peddlers of this nonsense, but surely you read the objections various people outlined?

You read all of that, and yet had the nerve to dig me out over the length of some of my posts on the Ukraine thread?

You cant have a lesbian relationship with a penis

The issue didn’t really seem to be with the Guardian. The pile on definitely appeared to be on her.

I’m assuming no one made it as far as the rape part?

I’d certainly be interested to hear the account of the female friend that she implies pretended to drink rum in order to enable Hagen to get drunk enough to render her semi conscious to be raped.

My take on the rape passage overall - if she made the allegation, I’d want it to be taken very seriously, fully investigated and justice done. I also recognise that rape convictions in this country are a disgrace, and show that women are routinely not taken seriously.

I’d also say that even if we had a far better justice system that did take allegations of rape more seriously, Sofie’s own words in that passage would be enough to get any case thrown out

No wonder your buyer was frustrated

£9 is for your posh sock though.
£200 for bed sheets is about right if you want the good stuff.
£80 white t shirt though? lol

£209 for bedsheets is crazy

LSN letting slip that a handy sock is an integral part of his bedding

King size William Morris bedding set from M&S for £120. And they do Egyptian Cotton sets for less than that too.

So I'm with caca on this.

The article literally explains what things should be worth and the justification for some higher prices.

£200 is a lot but £150 for a decent long lasting quality set isn’t obsurd.

Love pipers farm for my meat too. I like how the coffee bloke just plugs his own brand

I didn't bother reading any of the words.

Its just they'll have articles about food banks, Jack Monroe recipes for dinners for 20p, then telling people they should spend £20 on a chicken.

Jack Monroe has been quietly dropped from polite societt for being a pathological liar

Love the shoehorning of Gaza into that article, but FFS
