The woman that was my daughter’s Guide leader attended last night’s #WPUKLeeds19. I asked her about the safeguarding challenges of accommodating intact males in sleeping accommodations with my daughter or other girls
She told me that she had “trans friends, who would be on the floor, crying, if they heard what I was saying”.
That’s not safeguarding my daughter, or other girls. That’s protecting the feelings of unrelated adults.

During #WPUKLeeds19, she came up and asked my daughter, again, why she didn’t come to Guides anymore?
Stay away from my kids, if you don’t understand safeguarding

This person is Councillor Hannah Bithell, “Leeds Lead member for LBT women and non binary people“, @/hanbithell democracy.leeds.gov.uk/mgUserInfo.asp…
As long as @Girlguiding protects leaders that don’t understand safeguardingover those like @MsHelenWatts that do, girls won’t feel safe enough to speak up.
