The fact that the WI doesn't know what a woman is is baffling, and the reason why I will not join until it does.

I have put off joining because of the embrace of the trans cult within the institute. I'm 42 and would argue that the WI really could benefit from attracting women of working age. I will not join until the WI take a stand to protect natal women.

I am so frustrated by this policy which excludes so many women in order to include men.

No point in having a support group for women, adult human females, which allows males in. Woman is not a “feeling”. Trans identifying males do not become us. They need their own clubs; even if that does not give them the “validation” they seek.

Men, however they identify, have no place in women’s groups, spaces, or places

The WI is a female only space for women to assemble and discuss anything they choose, without having to consider the needs of men.

Natal women need their historical spaces to be able to stand for future natal women's rights.

I totally support this petition. A man may identify as a women but he is still a man and should not be allowed in the WI.

The WI must ask their membership for their input. This cant be a fait accompli, ignoring members reservations

My grandma was a WI member for over 60 years. She died in 2015 aged 105. I am signing this in her memory. She felt so passionately about women’s rights and the disadvantages she faced over her long lifetime. Please think again about allowing men to shape our female lives in this way. Thank you.

I am a woman, an adult human female and I don't want a biological male in a dress in women only spaces
