Very good point. I don’t care, either. However, the combination of big corporation + the type of person who usually promotes trans ideology (which this guy looks like to me) does set off alarm bells in my mind. It’s sort of like if there is a young woman with colorful hair, a nose ring, and vocal fry, I think, “Here we go.”

I wonder if they’re trying to trick us into being irritated by small things so they can make fun of us for being sensitive.

Oh I agree with you.

I have told the guy who made the post that this is not what women would ever have found offensive, back in the gender-bending days.

It's BECAUSE these companies are now pushing "trans" that it's become offensive. I felt that he didn't have a clue what it is we find offensive, and its NOT just men in frocks!

Funny you say about seeing "gender non-conforming" young women being triggering. I literally walked along behind 2 women today, one older and in a long skirt (may have been the mother) and one younger, dressed boyish, androgynous, could have been a teenage child. (Deffo a girl by the height, walk, demeanour etc).

What struck me was, "here I am, walking behind them, dressed practically the same as that girl, but I'M dressed exactly like I have been for 45 years"!

I've ALWAYS dressed like this! The only difference now is, back in the 70s, I wore Peace badges and anti-animal-cruelty badges, today it's Adult Human Female badges!

It's like Quentin Crisp said about fashion coming round in cycles: you start off in the suburbs, ostracized and ridiculed, and without going anywhere, the city expands out towards you, until one day you wake up, and you're living in the middle of town!

I don't automatically associate the hair and piercings with trans activism, but once it becomes toilet-bowl hair, black things sticking out of someone's nose, over-short and over-tight clothing, bits of flesh sticking out in various places (which reminds one of the TIMs), then I do start hearing the alarms.
