I'd like to know how many applications are refused

AnchorMum · 16/10/2018 10:11

Transwoman Bex Stinson is speaking

QuentinWinters · 16/10/2018 10:11

Bex has no GRC!!!

SonicVersusGynaephobia · 16/10/2018 10:11

Well at least he was honest about not needing any medical intervention.

Budgieinaberet · 16/10/2018 10:12

Another one who doesn't want a GRC

speakingwoman · 16/10/2018 10:12

So, twelve minutes in.....not very balanced......

PerverseConverse · 16/10/2018 10:12

Ah, so he's a man who didn't go through the process Hmm Wonder what he looks like. Very obviously a man from the voice.

EchoGivesNarcissusTheFinger · 16/10/2018 10:12

I said in my email to Woman's Hour that I bet this wouldn't be balanced. This is going to be all about the brave and stunning, isn't it.....

Tediousnamechange · 16/10/2018 10:12

To be fair, I'd want to hear their POV.

It sound like there could be a few changes. Certainly cheaper.

You can have autonomy Bex, that's fine. But WAGs must have protected autonomy too.

Budgieinaberet · 16/10/2018 10:13

Fuck and off

whyisthecakealwaysgone · 16/10/2018 10:13

What I don't understand is if you are truly Gender dysphoric, why would you not get gender reassignment surgery? Why would you not seek to remove the one part of your body that defines you as the sex you don't think you are?!

Miladymilord · 16/10/2018 10:13

thats enough of Bex thanks

Shiklah · 16/10/2018 10:13

NO THE LAW DOES NOT STATE THAT NOW

Bonions · 16/10/2018 10:13

"I've been living as who I am or years - my gender hasn't changed. The difficulty of the panel is that I'm having to prove who I am to a panel who hasn't even met you".

If your gender hasn't changed, why do you need a GRC!

Zeugma · 16/10/2018 10:14

There should be no panel and trans people shouldn't have to prove anything...........Shock

Shiklah · 16/10/2018 10:14

Sorry about the Caps lock.

AnchorMum · 16/10/2018 10:14

Bex - the law doesn't already regard transwomen as women without a GRC

PerverseConverse · 16/10/2018 10:14

Does the law recognise that transwomen are women? And transmen are men? I didn't think it did.

NotAnotherJaffaCake · 16/10/2018 10:14

And now that stonewall person is talking absolute lies

Miladymilord · 16/10/2018 10:14

THE LAW DOES N OT REGARD TRANSWOMEN AS WOMEN

happydappy2 · 16/10/2018 10:14

please lets talk about the affect on women!

Tediousnamechange · 16/10/2018 10:14

Does the law allow this?? Really? You to go about your life legally as the other gender? (Sex)

whyisthecakealwaysgone · 16/10/2018 10:14

Excellent point by the host, if you suffer that much by seeing the wrong sex on your birth certificate, you'd go through the process of getting a GRC no matter how bloody "intrusive" you found it.

If you're not willing to do that, they you remain as your birth sex.

NoSquirrels · 16/10/2018 10:14

JG: As an outsider to this, I’d be thinking that if it was that fundamental to me, I’d do anything to change that.

BS: Fundamentally it only gives you a birth certificate - it’s not worth bothering...

Tediousnamechange · 16/10/2018 10:14

Yes Mil!
