NB: We have to keep reminding people (like politicians & the public) that trans people did not create this mess. Trans people have not asked for this. Trans people don’t want any of this.
This cost & mess & disruption is entirely because of gender critics. It’s entirely their agenda & their doing.

This EHRC guidance is designed to push trans people out of public life, making it nearly impossible for them to leave their homes.
And this onslaught doesn't just hurt our trans siblings. Cis women who don't conform to gender stereotypes are already under attack too.
UK Ministers must reject it.
