Hi, with the GRA consultation looming as predicted, there are a number of other consultations opening in this timeframe which could equally be devastating for women's rights if we do not send in submissions of women's feminists voices.

So this thread is here to note which consultations are open, their deadlines for submissions and links to Mumsnet support threads specific to them along with other support for completing your submissions.

Hope this is helpful and please add anything missed Smile

Fair Play For Women guidance to completing the GRA consultation: fairplayforwomen.com/full_guide/

If the Gender Recognition Act is reformed to allow anyone to change their legal sex by filling in a form, without a diagnosis of gender dysphoria, it will have huge implications for how children are assessed and treated.

Brilliant post. Don't forget the Women's & Equalities select committee inquiry on problems with enforcement of the Equality Act (i.e. that service providers are too scared and not encouraged to use the single-sex exemptions they are lawfully allowed to).

Great thread SexMatters, let's keep bumping it!

Does anyone else feel like they've suddenly been given far too much holiday homework?

LaSquirrel · 31/07/2018 23:01

Excellent resource thread.
Shamelessly bumping it up the list.

ChattyLion · 31/07/2018 14:57

Great thread please can this be made into an FWR sticky?
