Was contacted by the agent for a local Labour councillor candidate yesterday. I had offered to help with campaigning as the candidate is a great guy who has already done a lot for my small town.
I was limited in the help I could give because I rescinded my Labour Party membership over the throwing of women under the bus re all women shortlists.
Explained this to the agent who replied that "Labour have always been against discrimination" and they work with a transwoman, but would go away and find out more.
I then proceeded to.....well.....rant a bit, about Labour discriminating against women and Trans women with a GRC, by accepting anyone who "Identifies" as a woman onto the shortlists. I told him about Labour losing women's votes by supporting a policy which would allow "Barry with a beard and a leer in his eye" to bathe elderly women in care homes if he said he identified as a women, every bit as much as a genuine transwoman with a GRC. And if the woman refused = hate crime/transphobia.
I told him women weren't scared of genuine Trans women, but of perverts and chances using loopholes as a way to access women.
He didn't reply.
I now feel so embarrassed as he made me feel I was being transphobic 
Have I made a knob of myself and have I been transphobic?
