I am a father of two. Wife was working today. It is very warm today, so I wanted to go swimming with my kids. My son was oke. My daughter also wanted to go, but she was on her period. She didn’t want to go swimming in this situation. But for her it is also a very warm day. How can she find cooling? Any tips?

    I agree with you. There are enough real trans issues out there without picking fights at innocent questions asked in good faith that are completely unrelated. Nowhere was there anything exclusionary in that post. If you look for negativity everywhere you’ll find it but you won’t make any friends and you probably won’t help your cause.

      It’s the ‘I like waffles. - Oh so you hate pancakes?!’ fallacy pretty much. Someone says something and then a different person finds something slightly related and spins it in a negative way.

        That’s a good way of putting it. It was such a hostile reaction to an innocent parental question like holy Batman.
