      OK. Here goes. Deep breath..... I lost my job @CGDev for tweeting, writing & discussing gender critical ideas & my concerns about govt proposals to allow people to change their legal sex by 'self-identification'.

      Here is the long story of what happened: How i changed my mind about this issue, why i think it matters, why I started tweeting about it and how I ended up losing out working on two-year project I had fundraised for, with colleagues i still miss.https://medium.com/@MForstater/i-lost-my-job-for-speaking-up-about-womens-rights-2af2186ae84 …

      I have begun employment tribunal proceedings for discrimination. This will be a test case to establish that “gender-critical” views are protected beliefs under the Equality Act 2010, as a philosophical belief.

      If we can establish this point in law it would help others who are afraid to speak up at work, people being kicked out of political parties and membership organisations and from social media for expressing gender critical beliefs. https://www.objectnow.org/objects-doxxing-dossier/ …https://janeclarejones.com/2018/09/26/twitter-trans-rights-totalitarianism-and-the-erasure-of-sex/ …

      You may disagree with all or part of my analysis of the issues, or you may not have decided what you think (its complicated!)http://Medium.com/@MForstater/international-development-lets-talk-about-sex-eb9de927c787 …

      ...but the point is people should be able to think and talk and disagree about policy issues openly. Institutions whose job it is to hold open that space are instead shutting it down. And that is always scary.

          Trans women are women, period, and the real courage in this conversation is the one they display living life authentically despite the hurdles and prejudice thrown their way. Reducing womanhood (or manhood) to what there is between a person's legs is desperately sad.

          On the contrary, it's the basic definition. We are sexed bodies. All the rest is personality. I'm 73, female-born, and I have no idea what it means to feel like a woman. All I know is what it feels like to be me.

          Thanks! So many people feel afraid of saying what we think in our work place, when serious issues of safeguarding & equal rights are at stake.There needs to be a huge noise in support of your case, so courts and politicians get the message that we have the right to question this.
