Helen islan - "mimmymum" - the notorious (ex?) Mermaids activist, is rather unwisely having a pop at women who want to maintain public space for women and girls to do sport in safety.

I wonder, is this the same Helen Islan who rather famously took a transwoman to court and lost? Who, exactly, is "trans-hostile" here?

Helen Islan also spectacularly misses the point that nobody is blaming "trans people". Plenty of trans people want to uphold single-sex services, although they are excoriated by people like Helen if they dare to say so in public. Personally I blame anyone, trans or not trans, who thinks biology is a real thing and that women and girls don't matter. I don't think Helen Islan is trans, and in fact, I blame her, and people like her, however they identify.

Actually, its not the past when others have to live the rest of their life based on decisions Aslan made.

Well she has to try to justify her past actions somehow.

However much she hounds women and plugs ideology,
It will never erase the past.

The answer is simple really. Campaign for trans sessions , go to mixed sex sessions . Instead the beef is always with the single sex sessions . Usually the womens only sessions as men dont seem fussed about having their own or they would ask for them. They usually just complain and get the womens shut down instead

Bit of a pattern really.

I know women who aren't Muslim but who were very self conscious of their body and weight who would only go to single sex sessions ffs, who definitely needed to exercise due to osteoarthritis which weight was making worse.

And other women who simply don't want to be around men.

She is a full on horror show.

God I dont know what would be more exhausting. Thinking everything is about you all the time. Or trying to work out how to say something in a way where people who think everything is about them wont be able to twist it to make it all about them...
