Before it goes down the memory hole, these are the comments to a 17 year old girl who was showering when a man walked in naked. She was understandably upset. Understandable to most of us. Here are some of the choice replies to her.
This seemed to be a common theme. Dozens of comments about her looks.
Former YMCA employee.
Weaponizing her tears is a common theme.
And for anyone who didn’t see the video in question:
Remember, this is a teenager. All those comments were said to a teenager.
Are we allowed to say the word? This is ______ing. This is teaching girls to ignore their boundaries.
Yes. That three letter word that starts with a “C” and ends with “IS” is most certainly a degrading term. It is no different than calling a woman a Bimb* Barbie. In fact, that is what you’re calling her. You are calling her a stereotype.
(CAUTION: The word is not allowed on this platform so don’t use it in the replies.) 1/
Whether or not you care that someone calls you that is irrelevant to whether or not it is a degrading term. You don’t have to feel degraded for a term to be degrading.
No one is a walking talking stereotype. It’s degrading to anyone to say that’s all they are. 2/
And if you don’t see it as being degrading then you don’t understand its use. It says that you identify as being whatever someone with a shallow mind thinks of your biological category.
How is that not a degrading thing to say about someone? 3/
The volleyball ladies lost this round of their case. They were suing to get the man out of the tournament. The judge, who demonstrated bias from the start, demanding fake pronoun usage, ruled against them. 1/
The judge said that the ladies had failed to show that the balance of equities is in their favor.
What on this earth does he think the purpose of having women’s sports is? 2/
The tournament will continue with two women’s teams facing each other. Utah and Boise state will play to see who will play against San Jose State (the team with the man on it that has a bye bc so many teams forfeited against them.)

Let’s talk about spy cams. They are small these days. They can look like the head of a screw. Do you know what is big business? Selling that footage. You or your daughter could have been filmed.
Do you know where they get placed? Bathrooms. 1/
They get placed in bathroom stalls and changing rooms.
What is the easiest place to put one of these?
In a bathroom stall that is “gender neutral” with floor to ceiling walls and doors.
So before you advocate for those please think of this. 2/
It’s hard for a man to sneak into the ladies room, hide in there and set up cameras.
In a “gender neutral” bathroom stall it’s easy. He isn’t out of place in there. He is allowed in. He is completely hidden from view. He can stay as long as he wants. 3/
This is not a political statement as many have said. Saying it is, well, THAT’S the political statement. And it was brilliant of Kellie-Jay Keen to force their hand.
This is just a word. A word we need in the English language bc adult human females exist. 1/
The adult human female is a big category. We have a word for the fourth stomach of a cow (abomasum). Don’t you think half the human race needs a word?
Without a word you erase a concept. Have you ever tried to discuss something you can’t put in words? 2/
For years we were told that no one was erasing women. So KJK set out to prove that wasn’t true. She put up a billboard with nothing more than this dictionary definition and they freaked out.
They called it haate speech. Took it down. By law.
