Trans-woman sent to male prison sparking 'outrage'

[Justhadathought]

Appeared in my local newspaper today: www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpool-news/outage-after-trans-woman-sent-17571703

A support group for transgender people has hit out at a judge who sentenced a trans woman to a male only prison

Is this really true? What value does freedom have if journalists have to print lies?

Yes, it's true. See the IPSO guidelines for rules on pronouns etc. and this by Julie Bindel:

Just read that Twitter link erishkegal, I am yet again gobsmacked by what is going on.

What happened to "publish and be damned"?

It really is like 1984.

Living as Tamara for 15 years? Hmmmmm. I do appreciate when they run pictures, like with the transwoman Mia Williams who set a woman on fire at Target, or Ralayzia Taylor, the tragic victim of a transphobic hatchet attack...which turned out to be retaliation for raping a 15 year old boy.

Seems like the press have discovered a useful formula for getting clicks: ridiculous/outrageous text that complies with TRA pronoun rules, combined with a truthful photo. It must make for good sharing material -not many news stories have punchlines.

Journalists in Canada started posting photos with the stories when C-16 passed. They resented being required by law to lie.

"Williams, who has been living as Tamara for nearly 15 years"

(x) doubt

Interesting that simply being placed amongst men is seen by the organisation as extra 'punishment', though. Is there something wrong with men in general? Could this be why many women aren't so keen on having men in traditionally female-only spaces?

Is it somehow only punishment for TW to be forced into the company of men against their will and not for the boring regular sort of women? What happened to TWAW? Surely all of us have to put up with it without grumbling or none of us?

How does this make consistent sense?

If TW really are a special protected group with extra needs and rights, let's put taxpayers' money to work providing separate, safe facilities for them. Oh, and for TM too, of course. Prison cells, loos, changing rooms, the lot.

Could the TM and TW share, actually?

Could the TM and TW share, actually?
Oooh brain gymnastics!

It's absolutely ridiculous. What's living as Tamara even mean?!

When will the world come to its senses? Women are, generally, smaller and less strong than men and susceptible to pregnancy.

Our biology is the basis of why we need female-only spaces, and the basis of why women have been oppressed and owned, coerced and controlled for hundreds of thousands of years.

It’s not a fringe & a ‘feminine’ name (whatever that is anyway).

Right so campaigners want their particular social group to be immune from being sent to prison at all. So normal standards of fairness and justice for any other group of people are being actively campaigned against while they call for total impunity and privilege for their own group. Sure, nothing to see here..

A group defined by Self-ID, so anyone who says they are part of the group can never be imprisoned no matter what crime they commit.

AFTH Edinburgh made a specific demand that all trans prisoners be released. Which is so barmy that nobody really knows what to say other than "wait, what?"

When I first started listening to my doubts about trans ideology and was beginning to look around for info, I came across AFTH Edinburgh, read their manifesto and was

I took the woke righteous commandment to 'educate myself' and look how that turned out.

Read the Twitter thread I posted below. It deals with another, ahem, interesting case of this nature coveted by the Liverpool Echo court reporters. The reporter gives his reason

Yes, I remember that case, but hadn't seen the photos before now.......assumed it was a woman.

It must be a very sobering occupation being a court reporter. I, myself, sat through a whole month of a pretty gruesome murder trial, in Liverpool crown court, some years ago.......and the characters who took the stand, and the friends and family in the galleries, offered a pretty revealing, and often shocking glimpse into the way that many people live their lives.

Wasn't that flasher part of the 'ban prison' movement? Jess Bradley.

Whatever happened to the case?

It seems to have disappeared without trace, mysteriously. Even Jess Bradley's not coming up in searches. I found this, from Jess's ex spouse

Jess Bradley who was on the panel for the government's trans equality committee?

I think this was the most recent thread

What happened to the criminal investigation?

Can be reading that - uses the T word.

Good grief. that blog... what are the NUS thinking?!

' NUS Officers are being paid indirectly by the taxpayer to cover up what are essentially crimes, and no-one will touch it with a barge pole because of the raging public debate over trans rights and no-one wants to be seen attacking trans people. But at its heart this has nothing to do with trans people and is a straight-forward case of lewd sexual misconduct being covered up by publicly funded bureaucrats with massive conflicts of interest.'

That bit? .

if shes got the dick shes in the mans nick
