MPs who believe ‘women have a penis’ will be named and shamed ahead of general election

I've seen and heard this reported over the past 24 hours, but haven't been able to find a link to the group / campaign?

Does anyone know what it is, or are they just building up the info and will do a big launch day closer to the election?

But I think if terms of a campaign that makes an impact on the mass media the simple straight foward question is best. Nothing to stop local constituents or whoever asking follow up questions.

And seriously, do you think that a group made up of campaigners like Sharon Davies, aren't more than aware of anyone trying to fudge an answer?

I will be hugely surprised if the web site, once it is on line, isn't explicit that the question is about biological sex.

Excellent.
I'm in Scotland and that'll be the first question I'll be asking anyone who chaps my door.

My MP is a sex pest so his response should be interesting.

I'm looking forward to this. My MP is a labour shadow cabinet member who has been conspicuously quiet on the whole issue, which leads me to suspect their views.

I agree with keeping it simple.
My immediate follow-on question to any straight male politician (Wikipedia bio would show marital status, which is a reasonable indication) who believes that women have a penis would be "if you were single [delete as appropriate], would you be happy to date a woman who had a penis?"

People do hide behind sex equals legal sex, I’ve seen it on here with some TRA posters

We also need to know which gets access to a single sex space

I think as a first question, it's a biggie. But you're right - there are many many follow on questions that also need to be included and bloody answered, especially by the weasles who will try NOT to answer.

None of them are hard questions.

If they genuinely believe what they say they believe, they'll have absolutely no problem with it being stated openly, clearly and recorded for all time.

Will they?

If they answer "a woman is an adult human female" it will also be necessary to ask the follow up question "do you believe that a transwoman can become an adult human female, or do they remain a female identified adult human male?" Otherwise they might just be pretending to believe Himdia and Veruca Ivy who both claim to be adult human females because of their falsified documentation and being made of "biological stuff".

Everything helps

Sounds good

I’d like a question on single sex spaces too but it is direct which is good

I don't disagree with that but that's too much information for an eye catching/soundbite campaign which I presume is the main or sole purpose of this.

Oh, this is amazing!

My concern, Ova, is that they could say that a women is an adult human female. If it stops there, we are not them probing whether they are willing to protect sex based rights. They might support self id and want single sex prisons to include those who identify as women as well as adult human females.

I think going into more detail about children, treatment for dysphoria etc. is too much, but a declaration alone doesn't tell us much.

Having said all of that, the question posed does filter out the first layer of madnesss - the 'anyone who says they are a woman' crowd.

I think this is going to be worse for women candidates and the men won't be asked/will evade because people expect men to be squeamish about "womens" genitalia. So I'm not entirely comfortable

I think it should be just as it is. It's to the point and effective.

Honestly could anyone have imagined even a decade ago that such a ridiculous question would be need to be put to MPs?

I disagree Crouton. I think it should be kept very simple.

I think in order to not be dismissed as 'anti trans', it would be good to include something along the lines of........Do you believe that trans people can be supported without compromising provision of single sex services

I think we need a different set of questions, that don't cause people to run a mile and that they need to try harder to answer. Suggestions:

What is your view on children and young people being turned into lifelong medical patients due to a mental health crisis which could be resolved through letting them continue puberty, proper counselling and addressing societal gender issues?

Should scarce NHS resources and taxes be diverted to providing surgery and hormones for otherwise physically healthy people?

What do you think about pregnant women being told to avoid certain foods, drinks, medication and activities for the health of the unborn child when pregnant trans identified women still have testosterone in their systems and there is even a push to allow them to continue hormone supplements while pregnant allegedly to reduce their dysphoria?

Oh, I'm all for this.

Hopefully the cowards who keep quiet and mutter about things being complicated will finally be forced to take a stance, one side of the divide or the other. I bet there will be some who refuse to answer, which is an answer in and of itself.

Bollocks on the block, lads. Lets see who has the balls to be openly anti-woman.

What a great idea. SD goes up and up in my estimation.
