Non-binary barrister is very clear that excluding trans people is not mandatory.
This means that if you exclude trans people you are doing it voluntarily and because you want to.
If you want to exclude trans people you will be held responsible for your actions.

I am transgender and have been pushed to independence because of how my journalism industry began rejecting me in Mid 2024 because of politics , despite my 16+ years of experience
I’ve had dozens of people in publishing tell me “ we’d love to sign you. Maybe after politics are different”

It may not feel like it now as marginalised people and their allies are edged out of institutions in the arts - but those institutions are unreliable, antiquated and at this point, bending the knee to fascism. It’s absolutely the best thing artistically and financially to be free of that.

If you allow tyrants to take away one groups voices, they will simply keep going until every voice they disapprove of is silenced.
Now, the hole we've been in has more company.
