If labour wins the next GE are they likely to overturn the ban on puberty blockers and disregard the Cass Report?

I want to vote for them but I'm so scared they will jump straight on the bandwagon and risk our kids safety. And women's.

That’s your opinion which you are obviously entitled to have.

Why would feminism include men? Surely that's not 'fem'inism?

That wouldn’t apply if you believed TWAW obviously.

I seem to remember that you made the same response to someone else explaining that sex is binary.

Not all opinions are equal.

Some are sensible. Some are batshit. Some are informed. Some are unsubstantiated. Some are not opinions at all, but facts.

Indeed. FEMinism is for FEMales. Males can be allies, but they're shouldn't be centered.

Nobody believes this. Not even the people saying it believe it.

Genuinely curious?

Am I entitled to the belief that humans are actually alien beings left here as a science experiment and I am actually an alien on earth.

You might be able to test my DNA and see that it's human but it doesn't matter because it's what I believe and identify as that counts.

So everyone has to respect my belief and refer to me as a displaced alien from zargon instead of a human and if you don't you're actually being really mean and alien phobic?

Or would you tell me to get a grip and go see a psychiatrist?

Because it seems like whatever FACTS people are hitting you with you're coming back with entitlement and beliefs.

So how far does that go with you?

Where do you draw the line between reality and belief?

This.

It would. Because they're still men. And anybody believing that is deluded at best.

About as clear as mud then😂

I think they're clutching at straws somewhat!

I don't think they will.

The Cass report and recent Tory guidance to NHS & schools means that Labour would have to actively declare it as a manifesto priority or reopen the whole debate to turn it over when, tbf to the Tories, they have done the hard thing and take an active position to set clear guidance on an issue noone likes to talk about.

Easier to slide into Government and talk about dealing with the big issues like the economy, nhs, trade and climate which everyone wants to see improve (albeit may have different ideas on the what and how to do it) rather than reopening a contentious but somewhat settled (for now) debate.

A lot of people on mumsnet have talked about GC views being a deabreaker for them voting-wise and I'm sure political advisers look at stuff like this and give some weight to it. Tactically, I think Tories would have been better to wait until the GE and made it a manifesto commitment as people vote for certainty. Now we know their position, there is no added incentive to vote for them (as long as Labour don't come out and say they will make controversial changes like making Gender a protected characteristic and revoking Sex).
