@WouldBeGood

Your sex is not something that’s a matter of opinion so this is all pish
Yep.

GRC debated at Holyrood now, has been since 2:30

TheUsualShitshow · 03/03/2022 15:33

Can anyone give a hint at what's happening in parliament? I can't listen at work.

Your username describes it quite well...
DomesticatedZombie · 03/03/2022 17:27

I can't listen because I just can't stand it anymore.

This is probably more damaging to the folk they are trying to be so inclusive to.

I’ve always thought the more you make a song and dance about inclusivity, the more of a divide you create.

And now they are probably going to get skewed census results because they choose to be so very mealie mouthed.

And Scotland’s own ‘feminist’ is all for this. And still she won’t give a passing thought to actual women.

I was surprised when wee nippy declared herself a feminist. I’d have been less surprised if she declared she was born Shuggie.

The GRC reform bill was presented to the shower at Holyrood, some lies from Robison, some questions to Robison, more lies from her, one MSP asked when she had only consulted women’s groups in January, more lies , the usual script including how difficult it is to be trans etc, and how hard Robison had worked for women’s rights over the years, more lies from Maggie Chapman including the word “ cis” etc. I think if and sadly I think it’s more a case of when, this passes, all the women in Scotland should apply for GRCs and get your men folk to do the same. Flood them with applications.

With the census forms i am tempted to fill it all in changing the sex of members of the family. However it says false information will be prosecuted. What do you all reckon?

Catsolitude · 03/03/2022 22:22

At what point are people in Scotland going to wake up? How bad do things have to get? Words fail me.

There is no such thing as 'false' information when it comes to sex. By adding that anyone can put anything they feel (a gender identity) the census makers have ensured it would not be possible to make a false declaration here.

Well we are very fucking awake but what can we actually do? The parliamentary majority means we're essentially stuck with whatever the coalition decides it wants.

Letter writing and protesting do sweet fuck all. They don't give a single shit what the public thinks.

FlyingGeeseAgain · 03/03/2022 22:43

I think play them at their own game and put everyone down in the census as the opposite gender.

And they are too mealie mouthed and lily livered to speak out for fear of being a Twitter target.

It is the Emperor’s new census for sure.

Someone on twitter commented on this topic nicely The activist position that being trans is Schrodinger's mental health issue: it's not a medical condition and doesn't require a doctor to diagnose it, but at the same time it is a medical condition and requires life changing surgery and lifelong medication.

That was my first thought as a knee jerk response BUT it’s better for us to put down woman and get our male relatives & friends to also put woman so the data and provisions are slanted towards women.

Believe me we are well awake here and we are raging because we have tried hard to open eyes up here.

@Bluebellsunderthetrees

That part of the Scottish census will now be meaningless.
What happens with crime data for statistics?
