They must stop calling him 'she'!!! It is so offensive that a man convicted of a crime only a man can commit can use a 'transgender persona' to gain access to women to abuse. Stop it!!

AncientLights · 11/10/2018 14:48

Good. I hope they have the sense to send him to a men's jail this time.

HandsOffMyRights · 11/10/2018 14:49

It's also an insult to those poor female victims and their families to refer to him as 'she/her'

Danaquestionseverything · 11/10/2018 14:53

Huh. I hope they have the sense to put them in general population. Not protection.

Just seen this in the metro. Interesting that they are using both before and after transition photos now. This is the first time I've seen a photo of him as a man.

Larryduff · 11/10/2018 14:58

"The prosecution suggest the reason for the lack of commitment towards transitioning is so the defendant can use a transgender persona to put herself in contact with vulnerable persons she can then abuse."

Thought this could never happen and anyone who thought it might was deluded or overreacting?

Melamin · 11/10/2018 15:03

Glad to see the BBC have reported it this time, but it is about time they dropped the female pronouns.

Halfeatentoast · 11/10/2018 15:08

defendant's approach to transitioning has been less than committed.

Yet were still going to use the word "she" in the article. Ffs.

getitnow · 11/10/2018 15:10

How can I complain about the use of the word "she" I find it so upsetting.

"The prosecution suggest the reason for the lack of commitment towards transitioning is so the defendant can use a transgender persona to put herself in contact with vulnerable persons she can then abuse."

No shit Sherlock! No put THAT in big letters on a fucking billboard.

getitnow · 11/10/2018 15:16

But why use "herself"

Can you now write "her penis" too ffs

HandlebarTash81 · 11/10/2018 15:16

So who’s crime stats is Karen jotted into then? Ours. Despite the fact they’ve said he is only transgender I order to attack women.

Piss. Take.

Reallylongstory1 · 11/10/2018 15:19

Photos of before and after are also on the BBC website as well as the Metro

nellieellie · 11/10/2018 15:22

Yep, as above, I spotted the prosecution stating that it seemed as though the motive for transition was access to the vulnerable.
Who would have thought..........

ErrolTheDragon · 11/10/2018 15:29

No, they're quite right to use 'she'.

Let it sink in to everyone who reads this and sees the photos - this is what 'transgender' means, this is what self-ID looks like.

Every person who chants the mantra 'transwomen are women' needs to understand that according to stonewall definitions and the trans activists, that's a 'woman'.

LizzieSiddal · 11/10/2018 15:31

I hope he rots in hell.

Clearly piss taking.

Stephen Wood. That's his name. Stephen. Wood.

OhHolyJesus · 11/10/2018 15:38

Does anyone know which prison he (I'm not dignifying this scum with the preferred pronoun) will be jailed in?

LizzieSiddal · 11/10/2018 15:42

I’ve just seen his “before” picture. Imagine a woman having to share prison facilities with that!

failingatlife · 11/10/2018 16:10

I was filling in the consultation when I saw this. Certainly gave me plenty of material for my response Grin

It is a MAN. HE has expressed the sexual urges toward children, not just women.

IT is a disgusting and dangerous individual. I hope HE goes to a male - only prison and gets the kind of punishment HE deserves......

What are the TRAs saying about this I wonder?
