Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.

Rules…

  1. Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
  2. Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
  3. Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
  4. No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
  5. New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

Article here and video of exchange here. He spoke to her like she was a piece of shit IN FRONT OF ALL HER COLLEAGUES AND CAMERAS. Unacceptable, inexcusable behaviour from him and I'm so glad her sisters stood up for her!

Who here would have walked out too?

That dipshit's wiki entry is a hilarious series of him being a jackass. Like I get that brilliant people sometimes get away with being assholes but I honestly have to wonder - what possible special aptitude could this guy have that lets him survive behaving this way?

Most of the "brilliant" people who get away with being assholes turn out not to even be particularly brilliant, irony of ironies. Their assholery starts to expose just how utterly un-brilliant they are.

Kaptain Ketamine with his Nazi salutes is the prime example of this, but so is Jeff Bezos and Peter Thiel and, indeed, that whole TESCREAL crowd who act like they're the über-intelligent coterie who will save humanity ... while wearing clown pants and putting on the grease paint.

I'm not gonna lie, i find the whole lot of them hilarious. Doesn't matter how hard they puff, a bullfrog is still a bullfrog. Batshit overwrought "philosophies" and lies strutting around like painted whores- just fucking admit you're a self involved greedy sociopath terrified of death.

My damned cat has lived a life of more value
