A one-off #TheySaidFuckingWhat, in a week where World Athletics refused to allow ongoing cheating.
Our Dear Leader gave her final speech, amidst saccharine "good lucks", & Humza pretended he didn't know/did know what a woman is.
So, to set the scene, a TIF on TikTok was whining that she shouldn't use the women's loos bc "Some Dr decided I was female at birth" & she decided she wd scare women.
A Dr stated that, no, nobody "decided" her sex at birth, it was determined at conception.
Behold the replies
Let's start with the boring
"2 sexes? You bigot" batshittery
There's obviously "about 6"
No, sorry, scrap that. There's 3
Now we have the "babies are magic" theory
They can not only change sex, but have a gender identity.
And obviously sex isn't determined at conception because we'd choose good footballers & geniuses instead
This is a little lacking in imagination, but obviously Dr's just toss a coin if a baby has a medical condition.
Or, if they aren't human.
John, bless his heart, thinks 210,000,000 years of evolution is dependant on legislation or policy.
Judge Mental is the afternoon replacement for Judge Judy.
Not as glamorous, but still entertaining nonetheless.
Genitals means.
I assume akin to means testing, only not quite as accurate.
Because men can have babies, therefore Dr's decide their sex.
Obviously.
And Leigh has a friend, so that definitely means Dr's decide the sex of babies, because Leigh HAS A FRIEND
Oh no, wait.
The majority of Drs think that sex being determined at conception is a "biased assessment".
Presumably they're the same Drs who know that anatomy doesn't determine sex.
Unfortunately, there was no follow-up, so I'm not entirely sure what does separate these 6+ sexes. Eye colour maybe?
And, of course, we have the thought-provoking, well-reasoned, well-researched responses.
This lovely woman was so patient & understanding, and desperately tried to help educate these poor souls, but to no avail.
Usually I'm not in favour of Govt censorship, but I might make an exception for TikTok.
The place where facts & reality got to die.

I've been told for years that, despite being an independence supporter, I am a YOON because I don't support the SNP.
I explained that the SNP's culture of misogyny, dishonesty, cronyism, bullying, unprofessionalism, secretiveness, incompetence & Presidential-style politics made it impossible for me to support them.
I was told I was wrong.
I explained that if supporting independence was contingent upon supporting the SNP we would NEVER get independence.
I am beyond pissed-off.
It's #InternationalWomensDay next week & my TL is full of stupid people & businesses/oganisations whining that men should be included.
No. Fuck off.
IMD was in November.
And even fucking worse, they want to exclude me, & every single woman I know.
They only want to include men who pretend to be women & women who are so desperate for male approval that they define themselves by regressive & repressive stereotypes.
Men who pretend to be women will NEVER be a subset of women.
It's a ridiculous notion & if you pretend that they can, then you're letting your ancestors & future generations of girls & women down.
You may have noticed over the last few days there's been a couple of small protests by, mostly, straight men protesting about the Scottish Secretary protecting UK wide equality legislation, but pretending it's about Trans Rights (nobody knows what these "rights" are)
You may also have noticed that Women's Rights activists did not turn up in their balaclavas to counter protest & assault the protesters.
Nor did they turn up & scream right in the faces of these protesters.
