In an Insta post, UN Women claims that “anti-rights movements” – its deceptive label for sex-based rights campaigners – are on the rise
UN Women claims campaigners are putting “the lives of LGBTIQ+ people at risk” – a dangerous and irresponsible statement that has been refuted time after time
UN Women also says women’s-rights campaigners use “hateful propaganda and disinformation to target LGBTIQ+ people”....
… and that opponents of gender-identity ideology “falsely portray” the rights of LGBTIQ+ people as competing with women’s rights
UN Women absurdly denies that “trans women” – men who ID as women – can pose a threat to the rights, spaces and safety of “cisgender” women
UN Women signposts followers to an “explainer” that is full of gender-identity propaganda and misinformation:
“Trans rights” – men’s demands to ID as women – are obviously incompatible with women’s rights. To conceal this, UN Women conflates the absurd claim that people can change sex with rights for LGB people
It is outrageous to call women’s-rights campaigners opposing a global tidal wave of gender-identity ideology an “anti-rights movement”. UN Women does NOT stand up for women

The judgment in Sandie Peggie vs NHS Fife and Dr Upton has been published.
We are pleased that Sandie Peggie has won her claim of harassment against NHS Fife, and that the hospital trust was criticised for its terrible handling of the complaint against her.
This is a long judgment and it will take time to analyse it fully.
We are disappointed the tribunal sought to reach a spurious “balance” between a woman’s right to undress with privacy & dignity, and the right of an employee w the PC of gender reassignment not to be discriminated against in employment.
Treating "gender incongruence" by stunting children's physical, mental and reproductive development - so they can look better if they transition: its not ethical @wesstreeting
Sex and gender reporting at the BBC is neither accurate nor impartial.
We have been tracking and complaining about this for some time!
There is the endless coverage of drag...
And the Pride boosterism
Meanwhile the Cass Review which reported on the weak evidence for puberty blockers and misguided “diagnostic overshadowing” was largely reported as a problem of under-capacity in NHS gender clinics
It’s been a busy week for media coverage of gender critical legal cases in addition to the Darlington Nurses, with Maria Kelly, Allison Bailey and Sandie Peggie all in the news this week 🧵
UPDATE: @scotgov has dropped its unlawful toilets policy, and we can now confirm that we have withdrawn our application for judicial review 🧵 sex-matters.org/posts/updates/…
In September, we lodged a petition for judicial review of the failure by the Scottish Government to restore and protect the provision of single-sex toilet facilities in its building: sex-matters.org/posts/publicat…
Our legal challenge was against paragraph 4.6 of the Government’s Trans and Non Binary Equality and Inclusion Policy.
This meant allowing male staff into women’s toilets and changing facilities. We said that this was authorising harassment related to sex, and was unlawful.
“I don't have any bad feelings about trans people, I just don't believe they should be in the women's changing room”
