Inquiry launched into row over 'transphobia' in Edinburgh pub
www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com
A major UK hospitality chain has launched an investigation after police were called to one of its pubs after a group of women were told they had to leave because they were “transphobic”.

Before any of you ask, "wheesht" is Scottish slang for "shut up" which ironically is exactly what these people should be doing.

Edit - The woman involved in this story seems to be a poster lol. Go throw them some support. If you need any more help with Scottish slang, just ask. Also it's 3am and I'm still up.

    Hmmm, looking into this it seems the article misgenders one of the people involved. I'm going to keep it up though.

    It's shitty on whole but there's still the main story in there.

    Edit - I can't tell if it's shitty misgendering or if they got confused by the "AGP Porn Addicted Male" joke in their twitter bio but they literally have their pronouns in there too

      the article's pretty shit journalism. very terf apologist. at least throw it behind an archive link next time so they don't get the clicks

      great story though. this tweet was excellent:

      “Any terfs see this, I tried to be civil with you and you failed. You're the worst customers ever. You dinnae belong in pubs... or society... you made my staff and other customers uncomfortable. I hope you understand just how much normal society despises you.”
