        Replying to @BillieJeanKing

        The erasure of sex as a protected class is a direct threat to the material reality of women. Women have the right to politically self define and organize to fight sex based oppression. If you can't see sex, you can't see sexism. Women still lack reproductive freedom. #sexmatters

        Please bear in mind that the LGB ask nothing but acceptance. Trans rights should be about freedom from discrimination & abuse but demands are being made that identity allow access to sex (or sexuality) distinct services, safe places, private spaces, sports, grants positions, etc

        "Gender identity"is not the same as sexual orientation, and needs separare legislation that doesn't conflate it with sex based rights.

        It erases the protections for women that you fought for in the 1970s. NO to this obscenity of a bill.

        Kiss girls' and women's sports goodbye. The "equality act" will remove the right to have single sex sports.

        I would say "yes" to this bill, Ms. king, except for one thing It will definitely endanger women's and girls' sex based protections. How can we protect something as ephemeral as an identity?
