Mermaid's associate Helen Islan (mimmymum) is smearing Fair Play For Women again. This time accusing Nic Williams of profiting from 'transphobia' and stoking a 'transphobic frenzy' /1

The irony here is off the scale. "It pays her bills"

The truth is Nic Williams has worked for 3 years full-time for FREE on our campaigns to defend sex-based rights. This has been her job for 3 yrs with NO PAY when she could have been earning a top-level salary elsewhere /2

This is not sustainable. So after getting a full-time director for free for 3 years it is now time for us to pay a small directors salary or lose her. No one can work for free indefinitely. /3

Thank you to over 1000 people who’ve helped secure our future. Of course women support #FairPlayForWomen, but men do too. After all, everyone has, or had, at least one woman in their lives. 👩‍👦

“Men should be protecting sex-based rights and segregation in relevant environments as well. I don't want to share my protected space with women and I'm not even worried about my physical safety, so women's spaces have to protected at all costs ...

"...because it's just too easy for any man with ill intent to use self ID to gain access. Also, we have to acknowledge reality, the only thing assigned at birth is a name.”

Thread: The government is launching a technical review on toilet provision. They are aware that many women want male-free toilets and not mixed-sex /1

"Women are also likely to feel less comfortable using mixed sex facilities and require more space"

gov.uk/government/con…

"The government wants to ensure dignity and respect for all. The Equality Act provides that sex, age, disability and gender reassignment are protected characteristics. This does not mean that gender-specific toilets should be replaced with gender-neutral toilets" /2

"But there should be balanced consideration of how the needs of all those with protected characteristics should be considered, based on the mix of the population and customer demand" /3

Encouraging. Fair Play For Women will be submitting evidence to this review.

"We want to maintain safeguards that protect women and the proper provision of separate toilets, which has long been a regulatory requirement, should be retained and improved.”

Here's what our supporters are saying:

“From sports to domestic violence services and the NHS, to the correct use and collection of data, eg Census, women need to defend our rights from the attack on the female sex and single sex facilities we fought long and hard to secure.”

“Stay strong. While many feel too intimidated to speak up in support of this fundamentally important defence of basic rights and protection, they do support it. And we are in awe of the courage that it takes to speak up and speak out on this."

“I'm so grateful to know that there is an organisation like you that stands for women and girls and I only wish I could give more. I never believed this would be necessary in my lifetime. Thank you.”

“Thank you for all you do, for me, my mother, my sister and my daughter”

WESC want evidence of how GRC impacts women. They need look no further than today’s #womenprisonJR. Proof that having a GRC gets males into female only spaces - including males considered too dangerous to have unsupervised contact with women. /1

The GRA2004 meant the MOJ decided to put high-risk trans prisoners on the female prison estate rather than the male one to give them ‘association with other women’ and to deliver ‘female services’. /2

The GRA2004 meant when the MOJ did it’s equality impact assessment on the protected characteristic of sex they didn’t assess the difference between the male-born ‘females’ and the female prisoners. The adverse impact on women in prison never found its way into the assessment /3
