This is super important. Making day to day life easier for transmen and transwomen does not conflict with my rights as a woman. Stand up for our comrades against an expensive, bureaucratic and cruel system, fight for their rights to be extended.

There has been a horrific, hardline and very vocal campaign to belittle the experiences of trans people, depict them as violent sexual predators, and reduce women purely down to their biology. It’s ruined the lives of my trans friends now, don’t let it continue.

There was a point a few months ago when the coordinated vitriol against trans people meant that the usual rule, let people speak for themselves, ceased to apply. People claimed women, especially feminist women, were at risk due to trans rights becoming more accepted.

I don’t write about race or LGBT rights generally, but there really is no conflict between fighting to end the oppression of women, and fighting for trans people to be safe and accepted. Not in my name, this spiteful, dishonest campaign.

Interesting you include Stonewall's link. They of course don't include sex as one of the protected characteristics in the EQ Act in their advice and have stated in their submissions that they would like to see that one removed.
