I'm grateful for all of the responses. But this is happening to thousands of women, cis and trans, up and down the country. Every day. The only difference is she and I have a voice.
Fuck all of those, especially the institutions, who didn't do the work before piling in on 'the transgender issue.'

Last year my wife had breast cancer and a double mastectomy.
This morning, for the first time ever, she was challenged in the changing rooms at the swimming pool. Her breasts were not what make her a woman - but, breasts or not, she is entitled to dignity and protection from vigilantes.

The way the Labour Government have behaved, just weeks after confiming their manifesto promise to improve things for trans people in the UK, is deeply shameful, with zero ethics, morality or backbone.

I wasn't going to speak about this. But I changed my mind.
This week I've been managing personal harassment on X. And I don't even use the platform. This harassment was then amplified by the Daily Mail.
Let's talk about it...

Labour's new policy - of humiliating trans people by requiring them constantly to self-identify - we believe puts the UK (again) in breach of its obligations under the European Convention on Human Rights and will seek a declaration of incompatability. goodlaw.social/0r6l

What my various inboxes are full of. 👇🏻
Screw the so-called Labour Party; screw the so-called EHRC; and screw the so-called Supreme Court: you've not made even one woman safer but you're causing great cruelty to tens of thousands of people leading blameless lives.

Over the last few years the freakiest news really had been the sudden appearance of ChatGPT and friends.
Before that, I'd been having loads of fun chatting with interactive versions of GPT2 bots on Reddit, laughing at how daft they were.
