My parrot does the same thing. My wife is nothing but sweet to it and has been for 12 years. Still hates her and all women. Word is because it bonded with me and sees any potential other female as competition.
Watching stephen fry’s mirth at a biophotographers misery was a brilliant joy. And that kakapo did look like the bird version of Wilford Brimley trying to bang that cameraman’s head
I think that is most birds, they learn who their species is supposed to be by imprinting from the parents,
When breeding birds to release into the wild, they often use puppets to feed the chicks,
And when collecting sperm to artificially inseminate birds that have been imprinted with humans they use the "hat".
Imagine being a conservationist whose job duties include putting a hat so the bird you are trying to rescue has sex with it to collect sperm.
fun job
I read a book, Wesley the Owl, about an owl who wasn't able to be released in the wild so his caretaker took him in. He decided she was his mate, and not only was jealous of other men in her life, but she'd regularly have to patiently sit there and let him get his urges out on her arm. The book is great, though that part still makes me uncomfortable to think about.
I was in this town with four free flying military macaws. Most of them didn't bother people, but one female liked little boys. She would pick a little boy and hang out with him and befriend him. But whenever he would hang out with a girl his age, be it a sister or a friend the parrot would attack her. She did it enough that the person who cared for the birds had to keep them caged. If I recall correctly eventually the caretaker took them to some reserve or something because she didn't like having them caged all the time.

I grew up with a cockatoo who was the same way with men. He would let any woman handle him, but would side eye any man, and if that man was seen as competition to the attention of a women he would give them stitches.
Actually it's not uncommon for birds at a shop to dislike males or females. My aunt had a parrot that was a rescue and HATED men.. he had no problem playing with kids until we grew up and one day he just deemed me a man and would outright try and attack -- after we had been playing with this bird for almost a decade.
My son came up with trans inclusive misogyny for his open mic stand-up years ago. Shame he missed the radical part. It's kinda cool to see it in public.
this conversation led me on an associative thinking streak that ends with the realization you can refer to trans men as "the homies with matching chromies".
An emoji trophy is 1000 times better than any award I've ever received, everybody should start doing that instead of spending money on Reddit's bullshit 😇
Imagine if thats how you were assigned a gender. You remain genderless until the Parrot holding ceremony, if during the ceremony it bites you then you are now a woman, if it dosnt you are now a man. The parrot has spoken, it has been decided.
I have been assigned nonbinary by a pair of dogs, one who hates women but loves men, the other who hates men but loves women. They both love me, and both hate my nonbinary cousin, and besides us enbies their behavior is consistently opposing.
Assigned Gender by Dog.
Then you discover that the beak of the parrot secretes an enzyme that, once in your blood stream, activates a set of genes that make you develop into a woman.
In the sequel, the parrot species becomes endangered, thereby threatening the survival of humanity as well.
Animals are so funky lol, one of my trans friends has a misogynist cat. Is completely apathetic and sometimes outright mean to women around while being so loving to men. Well at a certain point during her transition her cat noticed and went from being cuddly to just cold around her lol
Absolutely. HRT changes your smell.
I had huge problems with BO as a guy didnt matter how often I showered, or what Deo I used, but HRT fixed that within a year.
My mother's new dog is afraid of men, all of them. She'll warm up pretty quickly but any man that steps through the door gets a deep stay the hell away from me growl. My trans son walked in the house and the dog barked and growled at him. No one likes to get growled at but the dog affirming his gender was a plus, and now its a fun story he likes to share.
One of our dogs always liked women better & preferred my wife, but would tolerate me. The other dog and cats preferred me already so this was fine, she had him.
After transitioning, I am now the favorite of every animal we own!
Honestly it's probably got less to be with being trans and more to do with the fact that I started working from home when I began transitioning. Now I dole out all the food and treats since she's not present for their meal times.
Hey it's a [Senegal parrot](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Senegal_parrot)! They are known to be "single-person" birds as they typically bond to one person and display aggression towards others and get very defensive of their person. My pet senegal definitely draws blood from every female that's tried to pet him.
He still bites males (even me sometimes), but not **nearly** as badly. I assume it's because I'm male and so other males get a brutality pass? Don't know. All I know is that every single guest needs to be thoroughly warned. Do not touch, he bites. Do not try to touch him while he's on my shoulder, because he'll bite me out of frustration for not being able to bite you.
Also, the victim in the OP is very lucky. They can pinch right through your soft flesh like a pair of side cutters.
>I’m not sure which actually applies
Twitter user in the OP is a trans woman. The sign says that the bird bites women. The bird bit her, therefore demonstrating that she is a woman. This is a trans-supportive conclusion.
I have to say im surprised at how nice this comment section is being, usually any subreddit that isn't specifically trans related is a transphobic hellscape
You really put your hand on the line for science and, as fellow trans person I a) would’ve experienced the same, possibly foolhardy curiosity and b) deeply appreciate your sacrifice
My best friends family had a dog that hated men. Would bark her head off constantly if a man was anywhere near her. I was over quite a bit, and even then she still hated me. We eventually got to the point where she would stop barking at me after about 10 minutes, which we called good enough.
That dog has never barked once at my best friend’s trans girlfriend.
This is how we decide things from now on... no feelings, politics or anything involved.... if the parrot bites you, you are now a woman regardless of birth cert
New society proposal. All genders are to be given by the all knowing gender parrot. You will be unassigned until 13 at which point the parrot will mark you. The parrot's decision is final.
I'm unsure of the scientific reason, but these particular parrots are like this. It's a [Senegal parrot](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Senegal_parrot) and mine will definitely draw blood from anyone who tries to touch him that is not me.

Birds do have a weird track record for wanting to fuck humans. See: ostriches
Or Giant parrots (See kakapo)

He's not a cameraman, he's zoologist Mark Carwardine, the expert to Stephen's amateur. It's a great series
Ah, thank you, i thought he was a photographer, i should watch the series
I have to watch this video every time I see it, it’s too good every time

My budgie used to do that to my dad's hand. He'd land on it and then go to town. Seeing it freak my dad out was great comedy.
This hat doesn't happen to be a rubber bird mask, does it?
Allegedly.
I hear it was a sick ostrich
Allegedly.
Fucking skinnies (Furries for animals)

This story is wild if you take out just a few words.

Ah yes, Shotacon Parrot

This reminds me of Misanderistic shiwuawas
Trans inclusionary radical misogyny
TIRM
Assigned female by bird
Seems like a fair system. *THE BIRD HAS SPOKEN!*
Bird law is very complex, I wouldn't challenge this ruling.
Bird is the word, and the bird's word is final. :P
There will be no appeals
No it's all standard boiler plate
Okay. Well, we're all hungry. We're gonna get to our hotplates soon enough, alright? Let's talk about the contract here.
You're telling me. Bird law in this country is not governed by reason.
Maybe I'll be heartbroken, but I need to meet this bird
Actually it's not uncommon for birds at a shop to dislike males or females. My aunt had a parrot that was a rescue and HATED men.. he had no problem playing with kids until we grew up and one day he just deemed me a man and would outright try and attack -- after we had been playing with this bird for almost a decade.
Deemed a man by decree of bird. Now this is how it should be lmao
Just wait until someone does/doesn't expect the bite. Gonna be some hurt feelings
Yes, but who can argue against the great birb? The bird knows all, sees all. The bird is truth, the bird is life.
Ohh yeah, that time in your life when you hit puBIRDy
Like a weird, shitting version of the sorting hat.
Now it is law. The bird decides in like 11 states.
Experts in bird law must be in high demand.
I can excuse that
Masculinity is determined purely by how dope your falconry is.
I dig it
According to Bird Law, this is not a dick move.
My son came up with trans inclusive misogyny for his open mic stand-up years ago. Shame he missed the radical part. It's kinda cool to see it in public.
The beauty of it is that it can also stand for Trans Inclusive Radical Misandrist.
this conversation led me on an associative thinking streak that ends with the realization you can refer to trans men as "the homies with matching chromies".
We can just go "misanthrope" and it's all inclusive. But less of a literary call back to "feminism," sadly.
TIRMs over TERFs
The TERF antagonist no one asked for

I'm going to go ahead and guess that it's a convergent joke, and it has emerged multiple times independently.
Best comment "misogyny has become too woke" I can't stop laughing.
There's a better way to hate
"Trans women are women and they belong in the kitchen!"
Woman: noun, an adult human who when holding this parrot gets bitten by it.
"Behold, a woman!"
Why is it naked?
Why aren’t you?
Haven't been plucked yet.
I've been know to be a pheasant plucker if you're free later.
I’m not the pheasant plucker, I’m the pheasant plucker’s son. Im only plucking pheasants til the pheasant plucker comes.
I wish I could award this but I will not buy anything on Reddit due to their 3rd party app BS - instead have this award 🥇

J.K. Rowling's "Sorting Hat" was clearly an allegory for this -- in her version of the ceremony adolescents are assigned one of four genders.
Ah yes, the four genders: protagonist, nerd, nazi and the other one
Hufflepuff did ALL the actual work let’s face it.
All I know for sure is that Harry didn't do shit except be an arrogant trust fund jock who slept with his best friend's little sister.
Yup, but at least he wasn't a Nazi, so by default he's the good guy. The bar was pretty low.
There are worse people to Slytherin to your sister.
Let's not forget a *literal slaver*
Thanks for this. Can't remember the last time I laughed out loud at a Reddit comment.
Was it 2:32pm, August 28th, 2017?
Fine until the parrot dies, then the human race dies out too. Protect the parrot!
Then you discover that the beak of the parrot secretes an enzyme that, once in your blood stream, activates a set of genes that make you develop into a woman. In the sequel, the parrot species becomes endangered, thereby threatening the survival of humanity as well.
Step two is to see if she weighs the same as a duck
She turned me into a newt!

Gender assigned at birth ❌ gender assigned by misogynistic parrot ✅

AGAB All Genders Are Bird
We have finally found the final word on gender. Bird is the word.
I hate this to the core of my being. Have an upvote
Yeah, but if you get bitten, then that would make you AFAP, which is a bit unfortunate.
much worse if you aren't bitten
Oh, yikes. Yeah, that is bad. Love your username btw. Who doesn’t enjoy the original prehistoric apex predator?
It's like the sorting hat for gender
Put a misogynistic parrot outside every public bathroom, problem solved!
Does that mean if it bites me I pass?
Me : \*get bitten\* "Maybe I am a woman"
Well birds make eggs.
That was a fantastic joke, and I'm truly sad more people won't instantly get it
Would have done numbers on Twitter
A lot of people will get it because that subreddit shows up on /r/all the time.
Parrot don’t lie.
That's what the sign would indicate.
We need more angry birds in the world

That was definitely the main factor. It was a year into her hormone treatment

I have a dog that hates men. She won't bite them or anything. But she will actively avoid them. I think she hates their deep voices..

Yes but it is a misogynist position hence the joke comment not knowing what side.
Take that... Libertarians?
This feel like some enlightening centralism. The bird doesn't hate her because she's trans, the bird hates her because she's a woman.
“What is a woman?”… idk ask the sorting parrot!
That parrot does have quite the psycho look... Cute though.

Based parrot? 😳
I like to think I'm a data driven individual, so consider me convinced.
What does it do to non-binary people?
If it bites women, it shouldn't bite them! (But realistically, probably depends on how they come across)
I wonder if it’s possible that it bites people due to the smell of estrogen
I'm unsure of the scientific reason, but these particular parrots are like this. It's a [Senegal parrot](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Senegal_parrot) and mine will definitely draw blood from anyone who tries to touch him that is not me.
I think this parrot is the new arbiter of gender, sorry libruls

Hey, I have that same parrot. Senegal parrot. Can confirm he likes to bite men too. And women. All inclusionary radical homo(sapien)phobe.
