MINI LECTURE SERIES 3/10

Here I consider the scope of the Supreme Court’s decision, effectively stating that in some (rare) circumstances, trans people may be excluded if justified, but are not automatically excluded.

Where is the dignity in ostracisation?

Opening section from my GendJus talk in Trieste, exploring how the FWS decision reshapes legal recognition - and how language becomes the frontline where trans lives are negotiated.

Should empathy be a radical act?

How can we use our voices more creatively?

This was part of my speech earlier this year when I won the @kingsartshums.bsky.social Distinguished Alumni ‘Changemaker of the Year’ Award 2025

Law Society: “Stop saying ‘Dear Sirs’.”
Me: Gladly.
Inclusive language isn’t radical — it’s just accurate.

Intersex Awareness Day

Europe just said: stop performing surgeries on intersex babies. ⚖️💜

It’s about bodily autonomy — not ‘fixing’ people who were never broken.

Digital IDs aren’t neutral tech. They shift power.
When identity becomes an app, privacy becomes a privilege.

The EHRC pulled its single-sex guidance - but your role isn’t over!

They’ve deleted the page, not the plan.

Now’s the time to act: write to your MP and tell Bridget Phillipson to send the code back.

The Council of Europe just told the UK to stop treating women’s rights and trans rights as opposites — and they’re right.

Human rights aren’t a zero-sum game. They’re a framework for coexistence. #humanrights #councilofeurope #transrights #womensrights

🚨 Are trans people now disabled in the eyes of the law?

And is it fair on disabled people when their already limited facilities get turned into the “trans solution”?

🚨 The UN is considering downgrading Britain’s Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC).

👉 If the downgrade happens, the UK would no longer have a fully recognised national human rights institution at the UN.

Who’s watching the watchdog? 👀

🚨 Do you need surgery to be legally recognised in your gender under EU law?

That is the fight in Shipov v Bulgaria at the European Court of Justice (ECJ, where I used to work btw!).

The EHRC has just sent its finalised Code of Practice on single-sex spaces to the Equality Minister - without Parliamentary debate.

What you can do:
1. Email your MP today.
2. Demand a full debate and vote on EHRC Code.
3.Consultation without scrutiny is a democratic failure.

When you achieve something you never thought you could 😭

The visual rupture of the make up and barrister wig will hopefully turn a few heads and make people think about the status quo and its utility.

🎬 Did the UK just create a third sex in law?

📖 Oscar Davies and @jessothomson.co.uk wrote about it with for the DLA: A Third Sex: Returning to an Intermediate Zone. Link in bio.
