So, banging around Twitter this weekend was a Daily Mail article about a Tory councillor woman in some posh pub who was aghast to encounter a real-life trans woman in the pub's toilets, where she was accosted by the definitely true utterance "I'm going to wipe my hands on my penis." https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-11793005/How-chat-ladies-plunged-Tory-councillor-clash-trans-rights-womens-safety.html In fact, in her capacity as a councillor she has publicly written to Kemi Badenoch to demand action on this matter: https://twitter.com/RubySampson18/status/1627365418321977347 However, in a twist, it seems that this terrifying bathroom trans was in fact the popular political YouTuber Sophie From Mars. https://twitter.com/sophie_frm_mars/status/1630165824811016193 https://twitter.com/sophie_frm_mars/status/1630165832339800064

It does make me wonder what kind of nonsense you would have to have been reading to prime yourself for jumping straight to 'penis' and then to interpret that as a threat rather than as an absurd joke that one may make in a pub toilet. (Wall to wall terf brainrot about trans rapists, clearly, but this is the same sort of brain poisoning that got Black kids murdered for whistling in lifts and so on.)

Lol even not knowing who either are and looking past one being a Tory, I'd have assumed "...wipe my hands on my penis" was a mishearing regardless. It's just such a bizarre thing you would say and is just confusing rather than threatening. That they managed to get this published in a newspaper is wild. Oh wait, mail, suppose it's not that surprising.

I keep turning this story over in my head and I really don't think I can process - even assuming deliberate maliciousness and calculation on the part of both the Tory and the Mail - just how demented and stupid it is. It feels like a nadir in its own very specific way.

to be honest, if you shake anyones hand at any time, just don’t think where they put their hand while no one was looking there’s a reason why UTIs went down during lock down

What's the word for that thing, like a Freudian slip from when you are obsessed with someone else's genitalia while in a public place but it's entirely in your head and when you realise your mistake you don't admit it but rather publicise the opposite of the truth widely for political gain harming innocent people?

Jedit posted:Practically every married couple in my circle of friends added a child during lockdown. Yeah, I guess I definitely had more sex with my now-wife during lockdown (no babies tho  ) , but somehow I figure there was less shagging happening overall? Idk, maybe there's no easy way to quantify this.I guess Jel's point is more handshakes lead to more UTIs and...maybe? Personally I'd be surprised if it made much difference but results are often non-intuitive. I'm happy to forego ever shaking hands again in exchange for more fiddling and less burning wee

I guess UTIs can't spread as far if couples are only loving each other and not having affairs / doing polycule poo poo
