Hayton is right; the ‘trans’ issue is not about balancing needs but about doing the right thing. Of course women are right to protest the impact that allowing men to legally falsify their sex, has…1. unherd.com/thepost/trans-…

wonder where this trust and confidence originated from because women were never asked in the first place if they wanted or minded men in their spaces. A surreptitious invasion does not equate to consent. ‘Take for granted’ is the key phrase here. And make no mistake, the PC of…6
gender reassignment within the EA is where the above ‘granted’ rights lie. It’s why it must go along with the repeal of the GRA.
Hayton ends by asking - ‘Is Labour a party for working people or a vehicle for ludicrous ideas?’. It doesn’t get any more ludicrous than permitting…7

‘Transgenderism’ seeks to unmoor us from the reality of our sexed bodies, which for women results in the complete denial of what the female body experiences and is subjected to with regards male violence. As @KnownHeretic states, ‘it preaches disassociation from primary sense…

Apparently, the characteristic of GR is defined below. It’s a sex ‘reassignment’ process that involves physiological or other aspects of sex change. This process can be started with a mere thought - I think, therefore, I am. Or with the physical mimicry of gender stereotypes. 1.
Gender itself, is not defined but we all know it to be imposed behaviour/expectations placed on both sexes. In effect, GR applies to those who believe/wish they are/were the opposite sex. It is a characteristic based on belief, not fact. S7 describes the manifestation of…2.
that belief in a physical and metaphysical manner. It conflates sex with gender without ever explaining gender. We are just to accept that ‘transsexuals’ are people who are capable of sex change/reassignment. If that is not considered a belief then it must be a blatant lie…3.
Is it even ethical to be discussing amendments to the GRA, knowing it blatantly renders women politically powerless and is the antithesis of child-safeguarding? Those drafting the act knew it would affect women’s sex-based rights: from sex-discrimination/equality law, privacy…1
