Daily Mail article:
'The Battle of Hampstead Ponds: Meet the women who are willing to don mankinis and fake beards to protest against rules that let men say they're female and use the ladies' changing rooms'

"By any standards, it was the most decorous of invasions. The ten women who gatecrashed a male-only bathing pond in North London this week were not strident, vociferous or impolite.

One professed to feeling nervous; others insisted that they were not natural activists. Yet all felt moved to remonstrate against proposed reforms to the Gender Recognition Act, which, they claim, could allow predatory men to masquerade as trans women in order to prey on females.

Yet despite its laudable intentions — to protect women and those with genuine gender dysphoria — their protest movement has proved so contentious that some participants have faced a barrage of online abuse and even physical threats from hardline transgender activists.

The very 21st-century insult Terf (which stands for trans-exclusionary radical feminist) is being hurled at them." (continues)
