Hard as it is to believe some women, not because of funding pressure, but growing up in the era of trans mythology, no longer value the protection of women only safe spaces.
In fact (and maybe as a result of the criticism of Edinburgh RCC misadvertising) SWA no longer advertises vacancies as being exempt under the EA.
They say:
" ... SWA staff and volunteers are women only: this includes anyone who self- identifies. Many roles in the domestic abuse sector have an occupational requirement that they are held by women. However, this does not allow employers to discriminate on any other grounds: all women, including women with the protected characteristic of gender reassignment, may apply for women-only roles. SWA employees and volunteers must be selected on merit regardless of personal history, with the ethos of welcoming participation of women from diverse backgrounds into SWA roles, including transgender women. ... "
So at least they are being honest.
But I wonder just how many women in Scotland are aware of this.
Or indeed what other groups in what is known as the Women's Sector are aware of this.
Wnat is so insulting is that they have basically colonised an existing organisation set up specifically to provide women only services, and have corrupted that to match their belief system.
And decent group of human being would have created their own place. But the lure of government money made it so much easier to be a parasite leaching off the backs of women's work.
