    Gender critical feminism is opposed by many human rights organisations. Just let that sink in for a second

    I'm assuming you've heard/read this at one of your Godawful lefty media sources, so no idea if it's true or not, but if it is it just shows how 'captured' said organisations are by the identity politics rubbish. I'd be interested to know which organisations have said this, not least as you'd have thought they might have more important things to focus on given the real problems across the world.

    From a few years ago and the woman completely disappeared from the news shortly after this completely false tabloid headline was shared worldwide. It gets rehashed every now and again but she was never facing 25 years. In fact the max possible sentence is 5 years and that requires far more aggressive attacks than she made.

    Its another anti trans non-story

    And? I can't become a man, I am a woman. Why should I or any woman give up my sex based rights for a sub group of men?
    Things are shifting back to where they always were before Stonewall started with that #no debate nonsense. It is illegal for me or anyone to discriminate against a trans person. And people that know me know that I wouldn't do that. But it is also illegal to discriminate against someone who is gender critical
    I don't think name calling is particularly productive, communication and debate is key.

    For the record, science has now advanced to the point where someone born as a man can (using IVF after a uterus transplant and hormone/anti-rejection drugs) carry a pregnancy to term to give birth to a healthy child. This will likely happen within my lifetime.

    What happens then to "nobody can change their sex"?

    I'd click on the factchecker link about reduxx I posted. I'd never heard of it, so before clicking the link, I thought it sensible to research who owns the publication and how accurate it is.

    The irony - complaining about having to read a post that is nothing but your own words.

    There has also recently been a court ruling for changes in the sport of pool stopping trans players playing in the Women’s section as Women players were refusing to play against trans players as they felt they had an unfair advantage.

    Nothing, they're still a man, just one that has had an enormous amount of surgical intervention to artificially help them do something they couldn't do normally.

    This isn’t going anywhere. I think everyone’s had their say now. Thread locked.
