"Read our statement" - but don't reply (because obviously we block replies... )

This is so dishonest

#StonewallOut of schools
This is what the article said
This is what Stonewall tweeted yesterday.

Nothing to do with stereotypes. All about labelling children as young as 2 as being trans and teaching them gender ideology.

An organisation that cannot tell the truth should not be in schools.

Everything crossed for @BluskyeAllison 's judgment today (high noon)

Its a complicated case with lots of moving parts and players

Here is the list of issues broken down showing the combination of points she has to win for each claim (my summary)

docs.google.com/document/d/1VA…
There are 4 claims:
1. Victimisation by GCC (did they subject her to detriments after she did a series of protected acts?)

2. Direct discrimination by GCC (did they treat her less favourably because of her beliefs on sex, gender & Stonewall & is the belief covered by S10 Eq A?)
3. Indirect discrimination by GCC (did they apply a policy, criterion or practice in relation by treating GC beliefs as bigoted & involving Stonewall that indirectly disadvantaged women and/or lesbians)?

Stonewall's defensive briefing about its Diversity Champions scheme just keeps getting longer

#StonewallLies

stonewall.org.uk/about-us/news/…
Stonewall provides advice to *employers* ... they are referring to the wrong Code of Practice here.

Their guidance differs markedly from the Code of Practice

They've got unpublished legal advice? 🤷‍♀️ Great. "Trust us!"

sex-matters.org/wp-content/upl…
For example the Code of Practice says that where an employee is transitioning the employer should talk to them about using *different* facilities.

Stonewall say that all facilities are provided based on gender-self identity

.@Nike advert in the Guardian today "Everybody has the right to run"

Remember: the Court of Arbitration for Sport has upheld DSD regulations as a necessary, reasonable & proportionate means of achieving the legitimate objective of ensuring fair competition in female athletics
"I am a woman and I am fast. I worked. I trained I dedicated my entire life to running. That's what make me good"

Really Nike, really?
What the advert does not say...

The DSD regulations apply to people with

- XY chromosomes
- testes not ovaries
- testosterone in the male range
- the ability to make use of testosterone

This from @Girlguiding is such dangerous, reality-defying nonsense

"My husband and I are lucky enough to be parents of a seven-year-old girl, Rainbow... she is the same, except when she was born, we assumed she was a boy."

girlguiding.foleon.com/guiding-magazi…
At 18m Rainbow identified more w female characters, toys and book ‘Some ppl suggested we just say no, encourage her to identify w male characters, but how can u explain that to a young child? To what end? No to playing w toys she loved or characters she loved to pretend to be?'
So instead tell the child they *are* a girl. 🙄

How can you explain that to a child - "when you grow up you will develop the body of a man, because you are male...unless we put you on powerful experimental drugs that will stop you body and brain developing....

Penny Mordaunt: spot the difference.

Speaking to LGBTQ+ conservatives in 2018 she was bullish about legislation and said

"I think we have to do more to really combat some of the crazy myths that get bandied around as though they’re fact or genuine issues."...
Speaking to Mumsnetters in 2019 no mentions of myths or falsehoods:

"On these matters you’ll find me to be understanding and highly pragmatic. I get your concerns about this."

mforstater.medium.com/85-questions-o…
To LGBTQ+ Conservatives

"we have to ...aggressively combat the hate and the ignorance that is bandied around, whether it’s in the media or whether it’s other campaign groups that are spreading falsehoods. "

Some more toilet thoughts...

There is no legal requirement for separate sex toilets

But workplace regs, practicality and Building Code M - means that in high traffic, larger buildings the standard solution is something along this lines.
Separate sex toilets w stalls including accessible and enlarged ones, washbasins outside for speed of use. Gaps top and bottom for safety and ease of cleaning.

Plus urinals in the mens, again for hygiene and speed.
Designers know that toilets invite trouble and they design for that in their angles

You shouldn't be able to see in from the main door to cubicle doors.

The women's loo are at the end of the corridor, so that men have no excuse to be anywhere near.

Windows are frosted glass
