The original article was very odd in that it completely avoiding naming the sex of the perpetrator. Well, guess what?

Never happens, of course.

Can the PP tweet the article to Nish Kumar? If his act included normalising mixed sex toilets and berating women for whinging then he should own the problems associated with it, he has a platform => responsibility

Just yesterday I read a response by a TRA taunting the writer of a GR critical article that "it doesn't happen", we don't invade women's showers.

The trouble is, if these "incidents" are recorded with females as the perpetrators, as female crimes, how can there ever be evidence?
If there is no such thing as transgender perpetrators, and victims have to say things like "she looked like a man" or "she had a penis" out of fear of being accused of misgendering and breaking the law, how are we ever going to collect the relevant statistics?
People are afraid to speak out when it happens, this will get worse as they gain confidence.
This never happens.
No,never.
Because it's "women" doing it, and the media is collaborating.

I went to an informative briefing yesterday on the Equality Act. An important implication: it is within the law to stop housing trans-identifying males in womens prisons.

In other words, the current prison service policy is a political choice, not a legal requirement.

@adultFemaleElf, I don't do Twitter ( waste enough time on Mumsnet) otherwise I would have, it's disappointing when otherwise sharp observers are so uncritical of trans ideology, John Oliver is another one. I tend to write and rewrite rather rambling replies in my head that I never send, I should work out something pithy I can cut and paste as required.

This is in the Scotland section of the Times

however his pro trans rant included a section on how unreasonable it was for women to worry about transwomen behaving badly in women's toilets, tumbleweeds blew through the room.

I bet he blames the crowd for their intolerance, rather than himself for his misogyny.

Nish works on the mash report with Steve N Allen, another man that likes to tell women how transphobic they are. I think they have been trained well by the BBC.

Sexnotgender and likely they'll freak out at seeing ANY transwoman in the toilets if they know about this, even though the majority wouldn't dream of doing any harm. Sad for the majority but we can't say it "never" happens can we.
