'AN INSULT’ Outrage as ‘gender-fluid’ Credit Suisse boss who sometimes wears a wig to work is named among top 100 WOMEN in business

Philip Bunce says he splits his time fifty-fifty between his two personalities Philip and Pippa




A MALE banker who sometimes wears women’s clothes has been blasted for ‘making a mockery of women’ after accepting a place on a list of the Top 100 Women in Business.

Philip Bunce, a director at Credit Suisse, claims to be “gender fluid” splitting his time “50/50” as Pippa and Philip.

The financial worker, who describes himself as a proud father and husband on Twitter, occasionally goes to work in a wig, dress and make up.

But “Pippa’s” appearance on the Financial Times & Her-oes Champions of Women in Business list has been slammed as “insulting” by some feminist campaigners.

Mr Bunce started cross dressing at work four years ago and instead of appearing on the male equivalent list of top 100 people in business chosen to appear on the female one.

This has caused Kiri Tunks, co-founder of Woman’s Place UK, to slam the decision to include him.



She told The Times: “This makes a mockery of women and their achievements and begs the question does Bunce simultaneously feature in top 100 male executives and if not, what were his particular achievements as a woman to merit inclusion in the female list?”

Trans activist Kristina Harrison, who was born male but transitioned 20 years ago, also branded Mr Bunce’s appearance on the list “insulting”.

Mr Bunce wrote on LinkedIn that he was “humbled” to receive the award.

He said: “It was a fantastic night with so many inspirational and aspirational people, groups and networks who are all making such an impressive difference, I was truly humbled to be with them all.

A Twitter user named “Gin” added: “Congratulations to the 99 women who made the top 100 and commiserations to the 101st whose place in the top 100 was stolen by a man who occasionally wears a dress.”
