Just catching up on that #mumsnet chat
It's sad and infuriating.

Why does a chat about how to get more women into public life have to also include a chat about how to get more transsexual males into public life?

They are two different groups with different barriers. Image

Erm, Caroline, these one word answers aren't really landing well...

Consider yourself listened to...
Flashbacks to when Penny Mordaunt visited mumsnet.

Stonewall publishes a story about asexual "conversion therapy" to support its campaign for a new criminal law.

It is distinctly odd. Image
Elizabeth gets married then tells her husband she isn't sexually attracted to him and doesn't want to have sex with him (or anyone else).

What was she doing getting married? 🤷‍♀️ Image
The couple go to therapy, which seems like a reasonable course of action.

The story says "made to" but with no detail as to how she was forced. 🤔

She stopped going with no ill consequences for her. Image

The CEO of @AdvanceHE has written to university vice chancellors acknowledging that "certain policy statements" cited in the @officestudents decision on @SussexUni "originated in part from" their template. Image
The parts in yellow came word-for-word from the Equality Challenge Unit/ Advance HE template....

i.e. almost all of it. Image
... this policy was influential and contributed to the culture of declaring everything "transphobia" and of hounding and not protecting those accused of it. Image

The ONS have new guidance out on their gender identity data from the census....

They say that you can take it from them with "high confidence" that around 1 in 200 people have a "gender identity different from their sex at birth" 🤨 Image
But low confidence as to whether these are "trans men" "trans women" "non binary people" or others.

So what is it they are confident about? Image
They divide the apparent trans response into type A (e.g. sex male, says no to gender identity same question says "woman" for gender ID)

Type b 1 (says no to gender identity same question w no further answer)

Type b 12(says no to gender identity same question and then gives matching answer e.g. Male and man)Image

So who is "Mr X" the trans identifying man held in high security male prison after multiple convictions for luring boys into sex acts while pretending to be a teenage girl on social media?
Could it be Nigel "Emma" Davies who posed as a teenager online and shared indecent images?

No. Davies wanted to engage with young girls. Davies was convicted but not jailed.

Could it be former children’s holiday camp manager Cameron Osman who engaged more than 70 teenage boys in sexualised chat pretending to be a 16-year-old girl “Lizzie lemon”.



He is in prison. No idea what pronouns he now uses. independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/…Image

The core of the Melanie Hill v Metropolitan Police case is a Trans Day of Visibility event which took place on 31st March 2023, a week after British women's rights activist Kellie-Jay Keen was violently attacked in New Zealand while trying to speak.
spiked-online.com/2023/03/28/i-t…
In the run-up to the event, she was demonised in the Australian and New Zealand media, who portrayed her as a neo-Nazi. Attempts were made to have her visa revoked and to shut down her Let Women Speak tour.
In Melbourne, a group of far-Right men crashed the Let Women Speak event, clashing with socialist protestors and performing Nazi salutes.

Moira Deeming who attended tweeted her disappointment at the policing of the event

What did the Met Police not want you to see in Melanie Newman's witness statement?

Out of 114 paragraphs they wanted to exclude 37 paragraphs, almost a third of her statement. Image
They said that the paras were of insufficient relevance.

They spent half a day arguing this (after a whole day trying to get one of their witnesses anonymised) .

The tribunal said no.
So what are these paragraphs about?

16/17 Training to "speak out" if we saw anything wrong including offensive and discriminatory messages.

But also "keep your head down". Image
