JC. The GRC is a bit of a red herring.
It will only really affect prisons and all women shortlists. (Although the Labour Party have decided it's already a done deal in terms of self ID.)
What the proposed amendments have actually done, is alerted women to the fact that self ID is here by any other name because of the equality act.
The wording is so woolly and vague, that it allows absolutely anyone to identify as a woman.
Women were unaware of that, until they started to object to self ID.
At which point transactivists also became aware of it, and started exploiting it publicly.
If you're not au fait with the law, self ID takes on a meaning that it doesn't really have.
At the moment, groups like a woman's place want to make sure the protected characteristic remains gender reassignment, not gender identity, (which is being pushed by TRAs). And to beef up the exemptions to make them clearer, and disseminate them more widely so people understand them.
Personally I would like to see the protected characteristic of gender reassignment changed. To exclude chancers and all these Johnny Come Lately fetishists.
But again, how that is done, is anyone's guess.
