She's 15. She goes to a highly academic, all girls school.
I am GC. I have given her lots of factual info but tried to let her make her own mind up. (It's been hard not to just give my opinion).
She understands the difference between gender and sex.
She's been reading Woman's Place website, a lot.
Her teacher thinks it will be very interesting. No sign of her being censored on the subject. Which I am pleased about.
She must provide an anecdote.
I can only tell her about my friend Gina, who went through full reassignment a long time ago.
She wants to talk about self ID and potential issues with that.
It's been a while since I read anything on this ( obviously I will try and catch up with the latest developments).
Can anyone assist with what way we should go with this.
I want it to be a reasoned, well thought-out presentation.

She wants a PowerPoint display of "Posie's lightshow" as her backdrop.
Help!

^the crimes obviously all took place in the women's changing room against women, with male perpetrators.

Target stores saw sexual crimes triple as soon as they introduced self-ID policy to their changing rooms (ie self declared "women's" and self declared "men's" rooms)

ManFriday swim / Hampstead ponds protests are anecdotal, and provide a lighthearted insight as to what happens when organisations adopt self-ID policies.

Here it is.

School girls gaslit en masse after encountering 'naked man'... www.mumsnet.com/Talk/womens_rights/3489313-School-girls-gaslit-en-masse-after-encountering-naked-man-in-swimming-pool-shower

There's been a thread in the last few days about school girls being confronted with a naked man in the changing room when they went to school swimming session. In the USA. They complained but were told he was a woman. No problem.
Something like that might resonate with her peer age group.
