A woman has been found guilty of raping two women

Leggings are so unforgiving

I expect they are.

But it's not exactly getting a lot of press attention is it? - whether it is natal or transwomen protesting the idiocy & misogyny of it.

Mental

Apologies @SinnerBoy

More about the judicial review (which found in favour of transwomen being held in female prisons, astoundingly) -

This person will rape again. Mark my words. And it’ll be some poor woman in that prison. It’s just a matter of time now. God I feel sick to my stomach.

I hate to say it but there already has been. The MOJ decided that the right for transwomen prisoners to socialise with women was more important than women's safety, dignity and wellbeing -

Madness.

Sheer fucking madness, and if I say what I want to I'll be banned.

I agree with pp. Sign the Sex Matters Equality Act petition. Ask everyone you know to sign it.

Same here. We all need to throw our full support behind the women that have to live with the reality of this utter fucking bullshit.

To be honest, it will be completely as standard. There are multiple rapists who did not identify as women when they committed their crimes, who are never-the-less in women's prisons.

First up, 'Jessica Winfield', formerly Martin Ponting, who raped two girls under 16. Martin changed name to Jessica and got moved to HMP Bronzefield, a women's prison.

And it’s very clearly visible in those pink leggings pictured in the article! 😱

This link says he’s being remanded in a women’s prison.

An older article but I haven't seen any evidence that the SPS have changed from this stance -

I have a genuine question for those of you who are better informed than I am. Can someone explain why it’s only women who are angry about this?!?

I'm not a woman and there are several other men, who post here. I'm fucking outraged.

I don't personally give a flying fuck if he is vulnerable in prision, I don't believe that he is, but if he is other vulnerable men are housed in male prisons. If they can keep ex police officers and other sex offenders safe, they can keep him safe.

They have a number of prisons, which are dedicated entirely to sex offenders. The thing should go to one of those.

Let me know when the inevitable class action ensues and the prison service get sued by all the women who are physically and sexually assaulted and mentally intimidated by violent male prisoners. I'll donate to the crowdfunder for a team of hotshot pitbull lawyers to make mincemeat of the defence.

Coming your way, you non Scot Brits.

Have some pity on your Scottish sisters, and back up the UK opposition to the recent reforms to the GRA in Scotland, so that we might be able to claw our way back to sanity.

I honestly don’t know what to say. It’s disgusting. I have a genuine question for those of you who are better informed than I am. Can someone explain why it’s only women who are angry about this?!?

If I was a transgender person, I’d be furious that laws were being passed which allowed rapists to (mis)appropriate my ‘lived experience’ in an attempt to mitigate their violence against women using their trans status as an excuse. And, in the unlikely event of being convicted, being placed in a situation where they can repeat their offending on a literal captive audience of vulnerable women who are locked in with this predator.

Why are trans women not at least as angry, if not more so, than women are?

I do wonder how many men would still identify as women after being convicted for violent or sexual offences if they knew they were going to be holed up in an entirely TIM wing.

Perhaps that’s what we need to do to protect women and not pamper to their trans ideology.

After all, they will be all girls together and therefore safe away from these nasty men…won’t they?

I am raging that this henious crime is being recorded as being committed by a woman against women. They (men) should have to own their own horrible behaviour and not be allowed to suddenly 'change sex' so it looks like a woman has done this.

This is not a woman's crime, he has a penis with which to commit rape, he has weaponised his male anatomy against women and he should be housed in a male prison.

I don't personally give a flying fuck if he is vulnerable in prision, I don't believe that he is, but if he is other vulnerable men are housed in male prisons. If they can keep ex police officers and other sex offenders safe, they can keep him safe.

He is not a woman. IMO he is barely human, but what humanity he does have is male.

I note that the BBC headline has now changed to 'Rapist guilty of attacking women before gender change' - an improvement!

No mention of which prison the rapist has been remanded to however.

Wouldn't it be great if there was some kind of "QI klaxon" every time you turned on the TV news, and they were talking about:

People 'changing sex'
'Women' raping.

and so on. Words and their definitions matter. A lot.
