This is the petition asking the government to consult with women on the proposals to enshrine gender identity in law.

It said "Janice Turner is away" in her usual Saturday slot in the Times.

Just a thought is anyone on Reddit?

I'd remember hearing on here that someone said they have a few threads/topics on this?

cloudtree · 13/03/2018 19:23

My DF has just done it. I'm not sure he completely understood despite my ten minute explanation since he asked whether he has to do anything with his penis.

katieflorins · 13/03/2018 19:34

Could someone tweet to Robert Webb? I think he's been vocal over this stuff?

cloudtree · 13/03/2018 19:43

I thought Robert Webb was vocal in the opposite way?

MrsOvarall · 13/03/2018 19:53

We need stickers or flyers with the petition link and a QR code. To put up everywhere, especially in female only spaces. Unfortunately I have no idea how to create such a thing.

not bumping at all

Robert Webb is a confirmed manterf. There was a lot of fuss around the time his book came out and he was very clearly onside.

DarthArts · 13/03/2018 20:07

Yes he's supported some article from 4th wave if I remember rightly

worstwitch18 · 13/03/2018 20:15

DarthArts some on the gender critical subreddit has already posted it.

Mouthtrousersafrocknowandthen · 13/03/2018 20:16

I posted the petition on Linked in

DarthArts · 13/03/2018 20:18

Thanks worst

DarthArts · 13/03/2018 20:18

3,800 just now

My 13 year old daughter wants to sign - I can't see anything to say she can't - just asks for you to confirm a British citizen. Any one know if it's ok - I know someone said 16 was ok earlier.

I guess seeing as young people are being groomed online to commit to sexual stereotypes - I guess they should be old enough to sign a petition, in which case we should all discuss with our children and see if they wish to sign?

worstwitch18 · 13/03/2018 20:29

Yes a QR code!

I tried to make one, can anyone check if this works?

I only checked with Apple Passbook.

Did the AIBU thread go 'pouf'? Or have I accidentally hidden it from myself?

worstwitch18 · 13/03/2018 20:30

AIBU was moved to petitions

JaimesGoldenHand · 13/03/2018 20:32

Certain it got moved to Petitions. MNHQ Policy. We were lucky it stayed in AIBU as long as it did tbh.

CoffeeMilkNoSugar · 13/03/2018 20:36

Woohoo! My constituency now has 9 signatures! :D

MaximumVolume · 13/03/2018 20:37

You just have to say you are a British Citizen or UK resident. It doesn't ask for your age @aRespectableBureaudeChange

RosenbergW · 13/03/2018 20:40

It is really something to know there are ten other people in my area that have signed this. I wish so much I could know who they are, what an excellent coffee date that could be. That map is great for helping us all to feel less isolated.

katieflorins · 13/03/2018 20:42

Thinking about it though...

Surely if there was a discussion with women though, a group of transactivists who have already legally transitioned could presumably legally take part and even dominate under the name of women?

Haven't we already gone past the point where "just" women could discuss this?

NoSquirrels · 13/03/2018 20:43

I’ve asked in Chat if any Merthyr MNs are around and fancy turning that bit if Wales pink...
