I really hope this makes a difference. Trans and gender ideologies are running rampant and hurt the community for everyone who don't consider themselves queer or trans

For decades I campaigned for lesbian and gay rights only to see them undermined by our own organisation. Shameful.

Stonewall's TRA's are doing immense damage to the trust that developed over the last 15 years since the GRA came into being betwern cis-women and Transsexual women / Transwomen.
I speak for many Transsexuals when I say we are noticably different to transgender folk who dress up part time and don't have gender dysphoria driving them to Transition or die.
No way should the rights and protections of GD Transsexuals, and hand in hand, women and girls .. be watered down to give people who'd never qualify for a GRC as it stands, free and easy access.
If "Stonewall's new Trans" army, who out number Transsexuals probably 100:1 , feel they need special protections, fine, I'd agree .. but they need something different to a GRC and GRA protections.
Such a shame the orinal act was called "Transgender Recognition Act 2004" .. it should have been called the "Transsexual Recognition Act 2004".
The misnaming was political to get it through parliament, and that can't be changed .. but a new act with a new name is possible.

Because women are always at the bottom of the pile so don't pretend to stand for us

You've done so much good work in the past but seem incapable of considering the views of others here.

Women have their own problems unrelated to this BS. Current trans activism is harmful to women and and men who identify as trans

Please recognise the conflict with womens rights and the impact not thinking fully about these issues has on us. The loudest squeak is getting the oil right now.

Women and children need safe, sex-segregated spaces; statistics must continue to reflect biological reality and debate should never be stifled.

Please think about lesbians. Please consider women’s and girls safety. I want to live in a world where each individual is respected. The 12 year old girl that doesn’t feel comfortable undressing in front of a male body shouldn’t be asked to leave her toilet. It’s wrong. So wrong. Why am I writing this? Why is it needed??.

Transideoligy is in direct conflict with gay and lesbian rights let alone women's rights. Stop the erasure of women: their biology and lived experience

The demonisation of gender critical women, including many lesbians, as "transphobic" and "Terfs" must stop. Most of all, a more balanced approach must be taken to transitioning young people, where "watch and wait" is by far the most humane policy. Don't sacrifice our young ones to the wider ideological goals of some adults.

We must respect transgender people; and we must respect women and especially lesbians at the same time. This requires us to have a good faith discussion of a complex situation.
