7. ‘biological male’ or ‘biological female’ are malicious rhetorical constructs that falsely assert that LGBTQ—notably trans—people are an ideological movement rather than an intrinsic identity,” GLAAD’s Guide to Anti-LGBTQ Online Hate and Disinformation explains.

The UK again shows they've lost touch with decency and humanity when it comes to trans women as a judge declared Graham Linehan not guilty of harrassment after he harrassed a trans minor and broke her phone.

Apparently the victim didn't seem distressed enough.

More here from @alyssaur.bsky.social:
Linehan Inexplicably Cleared of Harassment, Must Pay for Broken Phone — Assigned
After repeatedly directing hundreds of thousands of rabid bigots to attack a trans minor, Graham Linehan was somehow excused of any wrongdoing. Besides breaking her phone.

If respect is the goal, why are we debating where trans people can exist
As Bridget Phillipson weighs new ‘single-sex space’ guidance, the debate reduces trans lives to a policy dilemma. This is an evasion of moral responsibility, writes columnist Aimee Walsh

Since at least 2018, right-wing extremist Christians have been quite open that trans people were the thin point of the wedge. This lawfare will not stop, even when they get a favourable judge. It’s death by a thousand cuts. This is what happens when the shite side has millions to burn in legal fees

It feels worth mentioning that Graham Linehan’s harassment literally continued in the courtroom, as he repeatedly misgendered Sophia, and referred to her as “Tarquin”, a fictional deadname he made up for her as part of his harassment campaign. The judge was complicit in this harassment happening.
I wonder if I spent all day, every day, for years, calling Graham Linehan - or the judge - a nonce and then, when I saw him in the street screamed it in his face and smashed his phone, would a judge find I had done no harassing?

And that's not even factoring in the age of his victim

Today I learned that stalking a 17 year old girl, writing up a 400 page 'dossier' about her, falsely reporting her to the police and smashing her phone does not constitute 'harassment'.

One wonders what *would*.

Cis people:

Cis people when they want to intentionally misgender/degender/dehumanise a binary trans person:

they thematically put them over themself by themselves
It looks like that BBC page has been updated in the last few minutes, so that's no longer the last sentence. I think part of it has been moved to this paragraph in the middle of the article, and the age is no longer mentioned:

so if i understand this correctly, gaines has made her career by publicly calling trans athletes predators and threats to women while completely failing to ever mention even once that her mentor/college swimming coach was sexually assaulting and harassing women on the team while she was there?

It's amazing to me that I feel in 2025 UK the top option would probably have worse social consequences than the bottom one.

Also worth noting that while there's a world of difference between being trans and being a cross-dresser, British people absolutely care not for the distinction.
cis people: trans people are WEIRD and GROSS

also cis people: here's a real brain teaser. would you rather be accused of being a little bit fruity or a paedophile? take your time, there's no easy answers here and both are equally bad.

I agree that we shouldn't be jumping to conclusions, but this government and the last seems to me to be particularly belligerent when it comes to the existence of trans people, and seems (again, imo) to be in the excessive habit of making policy-based evidence, not evidence-based policy.
Doesn't change my view that Streeting is a dishonest, shapeshifting toe rag who is tacking left in a cynical attempt to succeed the hapless Starmer, but I don't think, fairly read, he is saying he is searching for evidence to justify his policy choices.
Even Hilary Cass - who disgracefully called parents terrified that their trans kids would take their own lives if they were denied healthcare "shroud wavers" - didn't go so far as to call for a ban on puberty blockers.

Nothing Wes Streeting says turns out to be true.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social it would be nice to shine a light on this and the treatment of WellBN @sophiemolly.co.uk is trying to draw your attention too.

The NHS trial barely covers 7% of those on the waiting list and is run be anti trans conversion therapists.

This isn’t right.
Under new NHS puberty blocker trial protocols, trans youth are being subjected to more than 50 assessments, intrusive exams, and over 13 hours of intrusive testing - just to access lifesaving healthcare

It demands young people re-live distress & undergo intimate examinations
