Re: Pronouns

No, that is not good law. The guidance appears to give any man the right to enter a female toilet at work as long as they say they identify as female, and that any woman objecting to this is to be warned that it’s their behaviour that’s unreasonable and possibly even unlawful.

I suspect when this law was drafted there was too little appreciation of just how militant certain sections of the transgender lobby was getting. But it is now the case that women who have campaigned for equality, and safety for women, when they dare speak out on this issue, are at times slurred with the perjorative ‘TERF’ (trans-exclusionary radical feminist) by certain sections of the transgender lobby. You don’t have to look very hard to see that the (probably unintended) consequence of this law has actually been to give *men* licence to trespass on the hard-earned rights of women. That isn’t progress.
