Are people who speak out brave?

I took small steps, locally and on the internet, then I went out to the public and I have come to the conclusion there is nothing brave about it

In am simply free.

There has been one incident of battery (one too many) that we know about.

We are dealing with people who lie, lie and lie even more. The threats have been extensive.

TRA are in my experience narcissistic middle-class professionals who value money and status. These people need their DBS clean. They need money and status to cover their false self. They will not punch you on the street.

What is stopping you going out with a few newspapers and peak transiting the public around you?

I don't think it's actually unsafe, we have been lead to believe it is by TRA and politicians it's unsafe, who don't want the public laughing at them or getting angry at them.

No males, no lies.
I will not compromise.

I'm meeting with a couple of friends who are the safeguarding leads for their schools to talk to them. I am emailing organisations, and phoning ones which have dubious policy changes to question them. I have been messaging youtube videos and articles to friends. And I've got some leaflets to leave around in women's spaces. I've felt nervous posting on FB, but have done it anyway. We have more to lose by the GRA that we have by opposing it.

I’m very wary of talking about this at work. We have a Stonewall display. I think there’s been some training on trans issues (I spotted a quiz sheet about various terms and what they mean). I think management would probably be sympathetic to the other side of the debate (we are almost all female at work) and most of us are mothers. But I suspect above my managers there’s a line we must stand by.

I know in theory no-one would know who I worked for if I was out and about, but it only takes the wrong person to see and it could be a disciplinary offence. I feel I have to be quite cautious.

You have to do what is right for you now and in the future.

We deserve to have nice lives when we have the strong line of women's rights in place.
