Please sign this petition to have crimes by men, recorded as men's crimes

This petition has only 6,000 signatures - 4,000 short of the number required to force parliamentary debate.

Men who identify as women are having their crimes recorded as "female" crimes, even when these include rape, sexual assault of children, and violet assaults.

Not only does this completely skew official figures, making it appear that women are committing violent crimes, but it makes catching perpetrators more difficult (a recent violent TW criminal was described to the police as a man - by four victims. Police later apologised for not apprehending "her" sooner and said they didn't realise that they should have been looking for a "woman"). It also means that victims, even of rape, have to address their assailant in court as "she". Misgendering will have them jailed for contempt.

This is outrageous. Official statistics MUST reflect scientific truth.

I think it's direct links to petitions that are against the rules - I've certainly linked to threads like this from other threads & never had a problem.
Obviously only threads that are on topic otherwise I suppose it would be deleted as spam Grin

Ahh that was a long bump!

Can't believe it has to be asked of the Government, tbh

Me neither.

It’s a travesty.

Ninka hopefully they are starting to get the message. But I am the eternal optimist.

mynameisnotkate · 19/07/2021 21:01

Signed. Still only at 6,019 though.

Up!

I signed this when it was last posted on AIBU (before it was as swiftly deleted by MN).

Heads up, as long as you're a British citizen, even if you're not currently in the UK you can still sign it!

Oh good tip clary

Still over 3,300 needed to get a debate in parliament.

TheSlayer · 22/07/2021 20:17

Has it been put on aibu?

Ninkanink · 22/07/2021 20:21

I’m sure it’d be okay to do an AIBU with a link to the petition, and asking people to sign, wouldn’t it?

TheSlayer · 22/07/2021 20:26

I'd do it but the posters on aibu scare me!
