Hi @FinlayMcF - sharing a picture of me with a target painted round my head & encouraging others to pile on is irresponsible. Are you aware some women targetted by trans activists, eg @selina_todd now require security guards to attend work? This kind of thing doesnt help.
In fact most people in this pic of @AllianceLGB are gay, 3 are trans. The Pink News article you share is nothing to do with me. But I can see immediately the headline is misleading. @joannaccherry got an apology & settlement from this publication so I’d urge caution.
The person quoted in the PN article is a gay man @TwisterFilm who at 19 lead the Gay Society at Glasgow Uni and campaigned to have it meet in the then deeply homophobic student union. I supported his campaign. He faced physical hostility. Hardly the bigot you and PN suggest!
He still campaigns for gay people and has concerns about young people who are gay being told they are really trans esp young lesbian women. This concern has also been expressed by clinicians google.com/amp/s/amp.theg…
If gay people like Malcolm feel the liberation movement they helped found has lost its way then maybe it’s best to have a conversation, not make absurd claims about lifelong gay rights campaigners being anti gay. Malcolm would be happy to speak to you I am sure
Finally, don’t rely Pink News as a source. They often seem at odds with the facts imho google.com/amp/s/www.pink…
