What if your winky doesn't work?What about walking into a women’s gym changing room calling myself Dorris but I’ve still got a working winky ?

SB doesn't want the police to investigate NCHI?Suella Braverman flags police quizzing OAP on gender rights sticker
Home Secretary Suella Braverman highlighted the episode involving a 73-year-old social worker as an example of police 'straying into politically contentious matters'.www.dailymail.co.uk
If the toilet is a single sex area, then trans genders can use the toilet with which they feel conforms to their gender.Assuming the toilet was a council run facility, a person could make a claim if the council endorsed the female toilet being used by men.
Precisely. The rights of one minority cannot be prioritsed over another minority. There is no heirarchy of rights.The rights of one group cannot be prioritised over the other.
How is this relative in a discussion about NCHI and transgenders?My niece has disabilities and she likes to mimic the head bobbing that some Indians do. It can be quite embarrassing, particularly as you cannot always tell she has learning difficulties.
I would imagine a discussion might be necessary for the recording of a NCHI, even if it is a one-sided conversation.No obligation to enter into a discussion.
Trans women are recognised as women.BTW, a man is not a woman.
The Equality Act 2010 forbids discrimination (in various different contexts) on grounds of gender reassignment. That means that in those contexts where the Act has effect (employment, provision of public services, education etc.), it’s mostly unlawful to treat a person less favourably than you’d treat other people because they are proposing to undergo, are undergoing or have undergone “a process (or part of a process) for the purpose of reassigning the person’s sex by changing physiological or other attributes of sex.” If a person is somewhere on that path, it doesn’t matter whether they’ve got a GRC or not: they’re entitled anyway not to suffer discrimination on grounds of gender reassignment. There are some necessary exceptions, but in general it’s obviously right that there should be a legal prohibition against discrimination on this ground.
It's not double standards, it's just a personal preference.However women do not feel the same about men in their loos. Double standards you might say but it’s their choice.
Who said it did?If a women doesn’t want a “trans women “ to use their loo it doesn’t make them a TERF.
He/she is no longer a dude. How would you know if he/she was confident and comfortable using a men's/women's loo, prior to the transgender.Dude would have used the men’s loo before the change so what is he/she’s problem now.
Stop trying to foment violence, damage to public infrastructure and hate because you don't agree with it.Stop trying to change the world because you don’t want to fit in it. Just be flexible and adapt.
If you were such a great humanitarian and truly worried about another's mental health, you would have quietly messaged him privately, not made a big deal of mentioning it in front of everyone else.Roy Bloom. Are you currently on medication for any type of mental health condition???
Serious question, because I think you should be & I'm reaching out as a humanitarian. You are displaying many of the signs of a very treatable condition which you may not be aware of.

Do you understand the meaning of TERF? It looks like you don't.

Strangely (?) Roy posted a partial quote that omits the answer. He accidentally (?) Gave a false and misleading impression.Trans women are recognised as women.
The following is a quote from a leading feminist web site.
Does the law say that trans women are women? -
There's a comment on Audrey Ludwig's “Blog about Boxes” that seems to me to need a short post of its own. The full comment is Can I ask a question about something I’ve seen claimed many times (including by senior politicians) – “the law states that transwomen are women.” Does the law actually...www.legalfeminist.org.uk
The short answer is no: the law doesn’t define the terms “transwoman” or “trans woman” at all.Can I ask a question about something I’ve seen claimed many times (including by senior politicians) – “the law states that transwomen are women.” Does the law actually say this?
"The short answer is no"
