'So my first book is being published by Penguin Press. It’s a political discussion (‘polemic’ sounds too angry) how British trans people are discriminated against in every aspect of life. Sick of the media conversation so starting my own. Stay tuned!'

I think I might just have better things to spend £70 on. (according to Waterstones) Pink fluffy things perhaps.

And I am pleased.

I wonder if Faye telling youngsters to suck dick and get tits early and telling women to enjoy their erasure is framed as sex discrimination?

Well, let's wait and see (assuming someone will take one for the team and read it...). If there are instances of genuine transphobic discrimination then they should be dealt with.

"Discriminated against in every aspect of life"? feckin' irony alert there.

Hope it’s better researched than this utter cack Faye came up with regarding prisons and refuges:
