Hello again. I’ve had a reply from my MP, Kim Johnson. She sent me a transcript of her speech in the GRA reform debate and linked me to Stonewall and Mermaids, so it’s not worth posting. She said she’d only had two people with my views contact her. This is my reply to her:
“Thank you for taking the time to reply. I would rather you had answered my questions than sent me your public-record speech. Can you answer my questions please?
Re Stonewall - I am familiar with their agenda and propaganda, my workplace is awash with it. Nancy Kelley, Stonewall CEO, has compared lesbians who don’t want to have sex with penises with racists. Sexual orientation, unlike gender identity, is a protected characteristic, but presumably you don’t consider her comments hateful? I do. Of course, if you decide your sex is no more than an idea in your head, it means same-sex orientation is meaningless. Do you think women who don’t want to have sex with penises are bigots?
Re Mermaids - I am also familiar with this organisation and do not agree with their approach. In her TED talk, Susie Green clearly states that she agreed to the transing of their son because her husband was/is homophobic. The shocking admission begins at 3:18.

deleted a sentence here because I’m not sure whether I could be arrested for it)…
Are you aware of the change in approach to children being signalled by WPATH?
If you believe women, as in adult human females, have achieved complete equality with men in our society, then I can understand your position on self-ID. Do you think that? If not, why do you think males such as Robin Moira White, who has benefitted from a lifetime of white male privilege before announcing he’s a woman in his mid-forties, should supplant a woman who has had to work through a lifetime of institutional sexism, in nominations for an award for women?
I don’t think most people are aware of the implications of self-ID but even if I hold a minority view, that doesn’t make it wrong. The era of “no debate” is ending. As more people understand what’s at stake I’m confident rationality will reassert itself. I also predict an increase in legal action by people who were severely damaged as children by adults who should have been protecting them.
Finally, I linked you on Twitter to the speeches made at the recent protest outside the MoJ. You may have missed it, so here it is again. Women speaking on behalf of incarcerated women - people who truly are marginalised.
