      Harry & my case pose similar Qs - is stating even generally that human beings can't change sex, fundamentally offensive (on par w using the N word according to CGD) or is it legitimate speech? (as well as true, if not always polite)https://twitter.com/WeAreFairCop/status/1197121801794531330 …

      Judge - does it come to this. Not my job to decide for either side of this debate. but if I use derogatory racist terms, its clear. But If a say a trans woman is a man, there is objective evidence to support that view. That is point @Docstockk is making - YES #FairCopJR

      Freedom of though and belief, and of speech are protected by Articles 9 and 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights. These are fundamental human rights

      Maya Forstater Retweeted Legal Feminist

      As @legalfeminist reported the argument being made is that gender critical belief does not deserve these human rights protections because it is dangerous & humiliating, and its expression should be suppressed for the protection and freedom of transwomenhttps://twitter.com/legalfeminist/status/1196747803474747393 …

      Maya Forstater added,

      Legal Feminist @legalfeminist
      Counsel for Respondent says almost all of MF's beliefs stray into Art 9(2) territory - not protected because they are offensive in a democratic society, and should be suppressed for protection and freedom of trans women.

      Suppressing freedom of expression in a democracy is a big deal. The judgments in our two cases will have significant ramifications one way or another - which ought to make them interesting whether you agree w the gender critical view or with "Transwomen are women, get over it"

      What is notable is many orgs that would normally take an interest in these kinds of Qs are not saying *anything* at all about the fact that these cases are happening @libertyhq @amnestyUK @article19org @fawcettsociety @whywomen @EqualRights @rights_info (even @stonewalluk!)

      Absolutely!! Women, in the face of the assault on their rights, must take silence as complicity??🤷🏻‍♀️

      Replying to @LactoClassicist @NWtoG and

      Yes. Complicity, fear, pragmatic silence... No org has even put out a basic 'Grainger' explainer related to my case. I guess because even that opens you up to the Q 'what do you think about whether women exist as a sex?', and no one can answer 'I have never thought about it'! 😄pic.twitter.com/C40qTVYTco
