UK: Trans-Identified Male Who Sparked Backlash After Using Women’s Changing Room During Teen Swim Meet Engaged With Erotic “Breastfeeding” Account

A trans-identified male who sparked outrage after demanding access to the women’s changing rooms at a Sheffield hotel previously engaged with a disturbing fetish account creating breastfeeding erotica.

Anne Coombes, 65, first made headlines last week after he slammed a worker at the Mercure Hotel for giving him a changing room pass for the unisex facilities instead of the women-only area.

Coombes first went viral at the end of July after posting on X (formerly Twitter) about his experience at the hotel. In a thread that gained ample attention, Coombes wrote that his day had been ā€œspoiledā€ because of the experience and demanded the staff member be sent for “gender sensitivity training.

One week after the Mercure Hotel incident, Coombes, who is the Masters Secretary of the Reading Swimming Club, attended The British Summer Championships in Sheffield, where hundreds of the UKā€™s top swimmers competed from July 22 to 28. According to the Daily Mail, Coombes was volunteering at the event and did a “walkthrough” of the womenā€™s changing rooms while the area was occupied by teenage girls.

Parents then complained to British Swimming, disturbed at his presence amongst their young daughters.

Speaking to the The Telegraph, one mother, who wished to remain anonymous, stated: “My daughter was in the changing rooms when this person walked through. And then came back again to use the toilets. She came and told me. How intimidating must it be to be a girl, changing in a women’s space, when this happens? And these girls feel that they can’t complain in case they get labelled as transphobic.”

The incident prompted British Swimming to issue a rule barring officials from doing walkthroughs of the changing rooms during competitions. A spokesperson stated that ā€œrelevant protocols [were] reviewed and all volunteers working on the event have been reminded of their responsibilities in adhering to [them].ā€Ā 

But new information about Coombes has cast a darker angle on the story as sleuths on social media have revealed that Coombes was following a disturbing fetish account on Medium, one which sexualizes women breastfeeding their children.

On July 31, X user @GenderReceipts shared the discovery that Coombes’ Medium account was following a ā€œnymphomaniacā€ blog titled Lola Down.

Alarmingly, the account hosts erotic stories featuring photos of mothers breastfeeding their babies. The photos are presented in a pornographic context and appear to be intended to be used for sexual gratification.

One story, titled “MILF Milking Masturbation,” describes a woman who breastfeeds an adult man while masturbating him. The piece is accompanied by over one dozen images of mothers breastfeeding their babies, most of which appear to have been innocent photos used without the consent of the individual behind them.

None of the photographs censor the faces or nude bodies of the women or children.

Coombes hastily deactivated his X and Medium accounts yesterday evening, though archives of them do exist. In multiple X posts documented by the Wayback Machine, Coombes chastises women for their concerns about gender ideology.

“I keep being told that I am, or I am trying to, steal women’s rights. If I am asking to be treated as a woman, then would someone please explain to me what rights I am stealing,” Coombes asked in one post.

On June 11, Coombes wrote about receiving a bra fitting, boasting “I thought I was a 38A, I was shocked to walk out with a 36D.”

The situation with Coombes bears some similarity to an earlier incident at a YMCA in California, USA.

In January, video clips from a Santee City Council meeting went viral on social media after a teen girl took to the podium to report her concerns about a trans-identified male who had been allowed to use the womenā€™s facilities at the local YMCA. The girl revealed that YMCA staff had told her that he had a “right” to use the facilities.

The trans-identified male was later identified as Christynne Lili Wrene Wood, 66, a Navy veteran who had previouslyĀ won a lawsuitĀ against a fitness center who refused him access to the womenā€™s locker rooms.

During a deep-dive of Woodā€™s social media history,Ā ReduxxĀ uncovered multiple photos uploaded by Wood of little girls, often donning adult dress. The pictures were usually superimposed with bizarre captions in which Wood compared himself to the children.

Other posts of Woodā€™s found byĀ ReduxxĀ include a photo of womenā€™s underwear laid out on his bed, as well as some making reference to pole dancing and pornography. Wood also posted photos of himself wearing a schoolgirl uniform while at work.
