SNP divided over transphobia definition - Times Scotland

[Igneococcus]

Very short article in the Times today:

I love how believing that women are adult biological females is now a faith-based belief. I always thought it was pretty basic science!

I know, I hate this belief talk; it's knowledge!!!

and the attempt to re-write the dictionary, which is totally Orwellian.

But surely having a male body is what characterises a transwoman? Otherwise what is a transwoman?

The denial of biology is madness. I read The Intelligence Trap after seeing it recommended on here. It's about how intelligent people can believe totally stupid things. Smart people denying biology is a good example of the intelligence trap.

I got blocked from a Facebook page for saying that transwomen are transwomen. Unless you say they are women, it really is no good.

I guess the author knows it's not only religious people who think women are biological females - it's just that they are one group for whom this is still vaguely acceptable

So it will now be transphobic to explain why a female can't be a trans women? Total madness. The sad thing is that the only party I feel safe voting for in the upcoming Scottish elections is Tory! Bring back the Monster Raving Loony Party, this is their time for power!

Raiders, the Monster Raving Loonies ARE back. They just name changed to the SNP!
