Transwomen are men who prefer to present as a woman which is fine, no issue with that just don't try to change laws around that to make it a more unsafe and uncomfortable world for women and girls. We rely on clear language so we can have the protections and spaces we need. This case is just proving how a simple gesture like repeating that mantra to "be kind" can snowball and end up eating away at women's rights

Be Kind only works one way it seems, this transwoman took delight in making a fellow colleague feel uncomfortable and when she complained directly which was the correct thing to do rather than running to HR was accused of bullying and suspended, not too much kindness being shown in this case ....most kind people would take into consideration if they were making about person whether they be male or female uncomfortable, that is a kind act,not what is happening in this case
