Trans-identifying people seeking extra rights

Just that, really, Most people accept their sex, date of birth, place of birth. It is an historical, factual document of their birth.

Trans-identifying people seek to change a factual documentation of their birth.

That's not equality. That is transpeople being given extra rights to rewrite history.

And they are they ones saying they're oppressed??!!

They are absolutely oppressed. Hence why horrible threads are written about trans people on this site daily. Not sure that would be acceptable about any other marginalised group…

How are they oppressed? What rights do transpeople not have that everyone else has? How are transpeople marginalised?

And not just their history, either.

nobody should have a right to do that.

I agree and I think the GRA should be repealed, it is bad law and has created a whole host of problems in across society, especially for women and children.

I agree. If you want to change your gender legally then you could have an appendix added to your birth certificate which states this. This will help with the issues around DBs checks at the moment too.
