In Wales @WelshGovernment ignore the voices of concerned women & plough on, intent on destroying our sex-based rights

But Welsh women will not be subdued, dismissed or ignored any longer

Mae ein hadroddiad #CanThePlan yn amlinellu pryderon ynghylch Cynllun Gweithredu LHDTC+ @LlywodraethCym, a pham rydyn ni'n meddwl bod angen iddyn nhw ei roi o'r neilltu a dechrau o'r newydd.

Wedi'i ddatblygu trwy ymgynghori â gweithwyr proffesiynol, > merchedcymru.wales/wp-content/upl…
> adborth gan aelodau Merched Cymru, @LGBAllies_Cymru, chwaer-grwpiau o bob rhan o'r DU ac Iwerddon, a thrafodion gweminar a gynhaliwyd ym mis Hydref, gallwch ei lawrlwytho o'n gwefan.

Yn rhan 1, rydym yn dadlau bod y Cynllun drafft
• yn creu gwrthdaro hawliau >
• bod yr iaith a'r fethodoleg yn ddiffygiol
• heb sylfaen dystiolaeth
• a bod yr argymhellion yn anghynhenid.

Mae Rhan 2 yn cynnwys blogiau a myfyrdodau personol o ystod eang o safbwyntiau, gan gynnwys arbenigwyr yn eu maes, gweithredwyr ac ymgyrchwyr. Mae pob un yn >

Our#CanThePlan report outlines concerns around @WelshGovernment's LGBTQ+ Action Plan, and why we think they need to set it aside & start afresh.

Developed through consultation with professionals, feedback from Merched Cymru members, @LGBAllies_Cymru, >
merchedcymru.wales/wp-content/upl…
> sister groups from across the UK & Ireland, & the proceedings of a webinar held in Oct, you can download it from our website.

In part 1, we argue that the draft Plan
• creates a conflict of rights
• that the language & methodology are flawed
• lacks an evidence-base >
• and that the recommendations are incoherent.

Part 2 includes blog posts & personal reflections from a wide range of perspectives, including experts in their field, activists & campaigners. All are critical of the plan. You can also read the individual blogs on our website.

The male psychology affected by certain decisions and their attendant consequences: expanded.

Consider a transwoman who passes.

Hair, face, figure, all highly reminiscent of, not just any woman, but the most beautiful, most desirable of women by our society’s standards.
It’s not a woman’s body, but how would you know?
“You don’t see gametes!”we’re repeatedly told.

She looks like a woman, she feels like a woman, she lives as a woman, uses pronouns and everything.

But.

She thinks like a man.

How do we know?

Because she has a man’s physiology;
she has a man’s psychology:
She has the body and brain of a man who has thought of himself as, and has been made to look like, a beautiful woman.

Did her physiology inform her psychology, or her psychology direct her physiology?

If you elevate a collection of stereotypes about what women are and what women do over the universal experiences of female people, you will come up with nonsense like this⬇️about the ways race, gender and class interact.
I’d like to show you why #SexMatters here.
A thread:
Black women, Brown women, White women, disabled women, any kind of woman, and transwomen.

What is it they all have in common?

1.Humanity, ofc.

2.Human physiology, informing and affecting our human psychology.

3.A broad approximation of appearance - recognisably same species.
4.We are all a part of the sorting and structure of society.

Why am I talking about women?
Because men also exist.

What do women have in common with men?

All of the above.

It’s why, and how, we co-exist.
