Only source so far, but appears to be potentially corroborated by the Sun:

I think he's probably worked out he'll survive longer in a special nonses prison unit as a man (and have like-minded fellow prisoners) than he would in a women's prison.

Apparently he told police it wasn't an abduction and he was being "motherly" (just heard on r4 news)

Surely if someone says they're trans then they are. That's the way it usually works.

This person was 'transitioning'.

If they are 'transitioning' then they surely 'intend to transition'. It's all a fucking nonsense.

Whatever clothes this man wears, or name he adopts, or whatever magical process he claims to have undergone, he needs to be in a man's prison.

I'm not sure it's as positive as you think. The article states the man said he wants to use "he" pronouns for simplicity but is transgender and in the process of transitioning. So really they're just going with his pronoun preferences rather than some editorial change.

Trans women are women unless they make trans women look bad, basically.

I imagine that the BBC are trying to stop the public getting the idea that trans woman=sex offender.

Don't think I can form any non-deleteable comments on that.

Humza: "He is being held in the male estate"

So as soon as you declare to another individual that you intend to 'fully transition', you're covered. No actual transition of any sort is necessary. A man could spend the rest of his life intending to fully transition and never actually making any changes to his body, his clothing, his name or anything else. 'Gender reassignment' is a completely self-ID category under the EA2010.

Cannot confirm he'll be held in a man's prison, Humza?

So he can comment on a live case to say the person is held in a man's prison. But he can't comment on a live case when asked if that will be the case after sentencing.

Convenient.

She said she had accepted the offer because she was cold and believed the "lady" to be non-threatening.

Which was exactly the scenario predicted by Barra Kerr in "Pronouns Are Rohypnol".

That's what I was suggesting. I was pointing out the convenient inconsistency in the BBC reporting of the case.

Shona Robison: "clearly a predatory man"

Fuck you Shona Robison. Fuck you.

And thank you to Connor Gillies for pulling this woman up on her stupid, stupid fucking statement.

Myra Hindley vibes.

Is she stupid or evil? Maybe both.

'he is clearly a predatory man' says Shona Robison.

On what basis are you making that assessment, Shona?

Exactly. How many of us have told our children that if they are lost to find a woman to ask for help? I know I have modified what I say to be "find another mummy - a woman with children with her".

She's clearly lying and doesn't give a shit the harm it does to women and children.

These people make me sick.

And just to clarify we all know he is a predatory man.

What she is lying about is the fact that she thinks it's clear.

Whilst simultaneously stating that no man would use self ID to harm women and children.

They would and they do.

Just once, just fucking once, I wish an interviewer would point out that this isn't about saying "all trans people are predators". The point is that men (adult human males) - whatever their declared gender identity - commit violent and sexual crime at a much, much, much greater rate than women, and therefore certain spaces need to be segregated by sex.
And that's without even including the hairy issue raised by the census that those males who identify as transgender seem much more likely than other men to be convicted of sexual offences.

Yes. She should be held to account. This bullshit nonsense that some males are above suspicion or caution has contributed to some of the problems we are seeing now. Trans people alike must be bloody raging at the stupidity of this woman, who thinks she has the right to make law based on lies, and then deny her own words without compunction. How the FUCK is she our 2nd in command? Resign, Shona, if you have a shred of decency.

This case is absolutely sickening. That poor kid, she did all the right things, like only getting in the car with a woman.

I hope there is going to be extra punishment for the aspect of premeditated aggravating deception by that sick, male POS.
