I do see & accept that the most recent, and rather worrying, development is that religious fundamentalists have very much reared their heads in the debate and of course, when it comes down to it, the last thing that group is interested in is women's rights (or anyone elses).

But just as disingenuous individuals use of Trans Rights dogma as protection from scrutiny doesn't mean that all trans people are dangerous, the presence of the hard right and religious groups hopping onto the "other side" doesn't mean that there aren't people with real, valid and reasonable safeguarding concerns.

Yeah, the man that says girls should be having babies below the age of consent because that’s when they’re the most verile, definitely wants to protect kids

Yeah, that’s the type of people being allowed to take over and become the face of the anti-trans movement, because they say things that people want to hear on the surface, but they’ve got their own ulterior motives based in fundamentalism and bigotry

I notice there are never conversations about punishing other parts of society when people do dodgy things, teachers sleep with a student? Never a conversation about banning women from teaching to help protect children from it ever happening again, no conversation about restricting straight men’s rights, from doing things whenever one of them attacks or abuses someone, societal punishment is always aimed at the already targeted groups because they’re the easiest targets to strike fear into the ‘normal’ peoples heads, it’s so bloody transparent and frankly, as a gay man, terrifying to see the road society is going down, we’ll be back under section 28 before long, we’ll be banned from doing certain jobs and the people who are happy for it to be currently the aim to happen to trans people, will pretend to be sympathetic while they played a massive part in allowing the advancement of these wild theories

This was in a science class....nothing to do with the drag queen...

This seems a very strange school

He said the 11 year olds come back into the family home and tell their 5,6,7 year old siblings

He is utterly disgusted and rightly so

This should be a matter of serious concern to the entire LGBT community but there's seemingly a culture of denial/refusal to admit that there's any issue. I do actually understand the reasons, but at some point they're going to have to realise that, to a casual observer, this starts to look like complicity, and not just in the eyes of "bigots and -phobes".
