WAR ON MEN: Two Australian women legally declared male
You’re at a bar, it’s getting late and you still haven’t scored. Out of the corner of your eye you see a decent enough looking girl at the bar and…
…well ok she’s hideous and flat chested but what the hell, you’re riding blue balls the size of Jupiter in your jocks and need to get some.
You take her home and all goes well, infact you have the best sex of your life. Incredible.
The next morning you wake up.
‘That was insane, jesus christ where did you learn those moves babe?’
‘… who are you callin babe?’
‘uh what?’
‘My name’s John’
‘…what? but you have a vagina!’
TOO LATE – GUESS WHAT, YOU’RE GAY!
Another nail went into the coffin of manhood today as two women in Western Australia successfully appealed a medical board’s decision to reject classifying them as males.
The board had found against them because they had female reproductive systems, which it said was inconsistent with being male.
But the administrative tribunal said while neither had undergone any surgery to alter their ovaries, uterus or vaginas, or had a penis constructed, both were infertile and had “presented as, and appeared to be, males”.
Let me get some perspective here. I can bend over one of these women, put my penis into her vagina, do her six ways from sunday and legally speaking I’ve just screwed a guy.
Jesus Christ do males really need this put up with this crap?
A female reproductive system was “a fundamental, although not essential, physical characteristic of being female”, it said.
What if I then wanted to go to one of their exclusive female only parties?
It might be the case that having a reproductive system might be optional for women but ask any guy what makes him male and he’s going to look down at his crotch (to make sure it’s still there), point and and say ‘penis’.
Go on try it, I guarantee you every male on the planet is going to give you the same answer.
Sorry girls, just because you take some pills and get your breasts cut off doesn’t mean you’re male – stay the hell out of my toilets please.

It’s ridiculous isn’t it? Welcome to the modern world. Makes you feel all warm and fuzzy knowing how progressive we are as a society. Warm and fuzzy right down to my non gender specific gonads.

Well that’s until they want kids. Then these women will just stop taking their testosteron pills and conceive. If anyone questions their ations they’ll just harp on about how it’s a mans right to bear children.
Currently the systems just taken them on their word that they won’t ever stop taking their pills. Bulletproof much?

Coud you explain how the choices made by these men impact on you? Your post seems devoid of argument but full of prejudice.

I thought the argument was so obvious I didn’t bother to focus on it. I’m appalled at the disregard of one of the symbolic and prominant male features in classifying someone as male.
How does it impact me? Well how stupid is it now that I’m competing against vagina men at bars now?
What if one of them entered a male cooking and cleaning competition I was in, talk about unfair advantages geez.
If you have a penis you’re a guy, if you have a vagina you’re a female. End of story.
Stupid legal legislation like this just blurs the lines and opens up a can of societal worms the rest of us have to deal with. I have no problems with women living as men or men living as women or people having operations done to change genders, but just taking a testosterone pill and leaving your vagina intact should never have been enough to legally declare someone a male.

The whole article is about how it impacts him you clown – it’s called an ‘opinion’ (fancy finding one of those on a blog with ‘soapbox’ in the title).
To everyone else paying attention I have a question. If I have gender reassignment surgery, what am I classified as legally? Perhaps any lawyers out there might chime in, but does the classification depend on my intent? It can’t be based on a physical attribute as this case now proves. What is the current legal threshold for gender?

Well following this case, in WA at least the current legal threshold would appear to be ‘Hi I got my breasts removed and I promise to take testosterone pills for the rest of my natural life’.
Not sure if this is nationally binding.
