@Nickisbackbaby So there’s plenty of people who are trans women and you don’t even notice them. Yes, there are some trans women that are earlier in their journey or otherwise find it harder to “pass”, but that’s the only ones you’re noticing, for everyone of them there’s more you don’t even see.
@BradJamin3 Are you aware of how old she is and how many years it will be before a party she leads has enough seats in parliament to form government even in the absolute best case scenario?
@heavyside@ollycaffrey You need to go touch some grass if you think a Dad has deliberately used a completely normal and common word to describe his son on purpose to avoid accountability. Absolutely devoid of any grounding in real life.
@heavyside@ollycaffrey lol, you’re being willfully ignorant. I gave you a short list of the various ways boy and girl are used every day when describing adults, there’s an even longer list! It is completely normal in many, many contexts to use boy or girl for adults, including in his dad’s post.

In England, often use lads.
We use boy and girl to describe adults all the time.
@heavyside@ollycaffrey Subversive co-opting of terminology? Which part of we all use boy and girl to describe adults as part of the English language don’t you understand? We always have. There is no co-opting occurring. Pull your head in.
