Let us be clear: we stand strongly against all forms of transphobia.

Read our statement below 👇
An image with clouds in the colors of the trans flag as the background, and a white square with the following statement: When we founded the Feminist Futures Research Institute, one of our very first priorities was to affirm the importance of an intersectional feminism — one that defends trans lives with the same strength and urgency with which it fights gender-based violence. In light of recent events which involved the murder of Sara Millerey González Borja, and the UK Supreme Court ruling that reinterprets the Equality Act to define “woman” in exclusively biological terms, we feel compelled to state our position even more firmly: We stand strongly against all forms of transphobia. Let us be crystal clear: that so-called “feminism” used to justify attacks on trans people’s rights — painting them as a threat to women — does not represent us. Our feminism is inclusive, intersectional, and fiercely anti-exclusionary. Now more than ever, organisations and collectives working to dismantle systemic oppressions cannot look the other way. If you do, you are complicit. And we refuse to be silent. We say it today and always: trans women are women. At FFRI, every non-binary, trans, and gender non-conforming person is welcomed, respected, and heard.There is no true feminist struggle without the fight for the liberation of all. We also want to stress a truth that is often ignored: trans people do not need cis people’s approval to exist and strive. They exist and have always existed — full stop. And the harmful dynamic that suggests otherwise needs to end. We call on everyone to stay united, to remember why we fight, and to recognise that challenging oppression means challenging all of it — not just what feels most convenient. To those most affected by these violent measures: we see you, we hold you, and we say this clearly — you are not alone. Please check in on your trans and GNC friends. Offer a little more sisterhood. A little more care. A little more rage.
