Maya's statement reminded me that a year ago today, JK Rowling published her essay Terf Wars.
JKR's essay and the vitriolic, misogynistic reaction to it is what peaked me and many more women. It made me get off my arse and become actively involved and take action.
I feel quite emotional today because what a difference a year makes. The fight for women's rights continues, but Maya's victory today is perfect symmetry.
