In the latest development of Scotland’s single-sex scandal, the Care Inspectorate says looked-after transgender children ‘should not be made to use the toilet or bedroom of their sex assigned at birth’.

The edict adds that trans youngsters should be able to ‘share a room with other young people who share their gender identity’.

Astonishingly, it also states there is ‘no law in Scotland’ that protects single-sex spaces.

Who is it that has been going round Scottish organisations, political parties, the charity sector, and telling them that under the law no single sex services are permitted. And why is anyone believing them when you can just look up and read the EA on the internet.

Or mabye Scotland lives in a parrallel universe governed by alternative view points and facts.

Care watchdog: Girls should share rooms with boys who ID as female

Girls in care should share a bedroom with boys who 'self-identify' as the opposite gender , according to 'terrifying' guidance issued by a watchdog.

Children in care of the state were one of the first groups that transactivists targeted. Writing policies for local authorities, foster carers and providing endless training was a major source of income for certain men claiming to be women.
Authorities completely failed to see the safeguarding breaches let alone consider how children alienated from their families were sitting ducks for the idea that their bodies could be flawed but transformed into a new person with a quick sex change.

Institutional abuse of girls.

Some claim to be the most oppressed and vulnerable whilst putting the actual most vulnerable into the worst situation possible. There are some evil people behind this. I hope they are exposed.

You couldn’t make up such downright nonsense. As if a girl in care needs any more to deal with.

Notmydaughteryoubitch · 16/03/2025 08:09

I totally disagree with the principle of this of course and know first hand the vulnerability of our children in care. That said I don't really understand in reality how this would come to pass because children don't bedroom share anyway in care unless occasionally siblings might when in foster care but a bedroom sharing risk assessment has to be completed. Would never happen in a children's home, they always have their own room. Foster care regulations don't typically allow for bedroom sharing. Children's home are generally mixed sex & bathrooms are generally communal anyway although obviously have a lock. There are occasional single sex homes for children with specific issues so maybe it's talking about those.

It's like certain men have found a way to tap into some primaeval, hardwired misogyny that has only ever been papered over. It's horribly telling.

All these people blithely imagining that they are just and fair and understand equality, but deep down the hard core belief that women are mere second class support humans burns away.

And these awful, manipulative, twisted men have found a way to harness it.

Absolutely this.

Girls in care are some of the most vulnerable people imaginable. This is shocking.

It’s absolutely disgusting.

a Care Inspectorate not protecting vulnerable girls is beyond appalling.

People in authority writing his nonsense should be sacked.

There’s no excuse for it.

FFS. Why does all the decades of safeguarding knowledge go out the window the minute trans is mentioned?! Why have people lost their goddamn minds?

When something goes wrong with this (as it clearly will and may well already be happening), the people who signed off on this should not only face financial penalties but proper jail time too.

It's horrific that they can put truly vulnerable girls into such dangerous situations. I don't for one second believe they REALLY think it's the right thing to do, as simple basic common sense after a few seconds of thought shows that it clearly isn't.

BeyondHumanKenDoll · 16/03/2025 06:13

This is absolutely sickening.

@Monomaniacal

They believe they are doing the right thing because they have an implicit values system that tells them the rights of a transgender person to affirmation are more important than the rights of a girl to safety. This is what the care watchdog is effectively saying even though they are dealing with the most vulnerable girls in society.

It is misogyny but like fish in water they can't see it.

Appalling!

Name changed for this - I just wrote a fairly detailed comment about similar situations I have experienced in the mental health field I work in (not in the UK), but then I deleted it out of paranoia. But this situation doesn't surprise me at all.

The gender identity belief system is like a type of high control religion (I'm using a euphemism obviously but not sure I can use the actual word without being deleted!) where otherwise sane people lose all sense of reality. And the majority of the people I work with believe in gender identity and would probably advocate for girls identifying as boys to share boys bedrooms as well. They would absolutely consider themselves to be doing the right thing for their client. And in every other way they're very lovely and dedicated people. It's completely baffling to me as well as alarming how this ideology has sucked people in.

It just beggars belief doesn't it.

XXylophonic · 16/03/2025 02:06

These people are sick and twisted. As if young girls in care aren't vulnerable enough already. This makes me so angry
