Devilsmommy · 14/02/2025 06:57

I googled further and in this report they are described as …….. ‘a person’.

I hope they're in a male prison...

CeratopsofthePharoahs · 14/02/2025 07:05

Do I believe the evidence of my own eyes, or....

Yes. Yes I do. That is not a woman.

I say bloke as well. Do we have any sleuths who could do some digging? That would be 2 in one week.

If we wanted to test the hypothesis that TW as a group pose a bigger risk to women than other men, I wonder what the best way to test that would be?

I was going to say crime stats, but of course you'd need it recorded somewhere that the perpetrator is both male and trans

dementedpixie · 14/02/2025 07:19

I notice they avoid all pronoun use. Definitely a man, not a women.

There is no 'she' in this article

HarpyOfACertainAge · 14/02/2025 07:22

They have changed it now and removed the word woman from the title. They must think people are daft.

It’s been edited. Thats interesting. Look at the text under the photo and it says ‘updated at 7.10am’. To remove the she pronouns.

Didn't realise it had woman and she originally!
Must have had some pushback then

GetDressedYouMerryGentlemen · 14/02/2025 07:26

That's not a man, that's not a woman. That is a nebulous dog whistle.

Garlicworth · 14/02/2025 07:29

Archive link - from before the pronoun correction.
The comments are great!

Well, good on whoever jumped on the edit desk to correct those inaccuracies, at least.

I can’t fathom how the powers that be don’t see how this is fucking up crime statistics. We will be relying on false ‘data’ based on feelings for years because of this issue.

I have absolutely no issue with accurate reporting. I really have an issue with skewed crime statistics as this directly influences money allocation and resources.

To add I think it also leads to more conspiracy theories and a distrust of mainstream media and official bodies.

Have you ever heard the saying, "A picture is worth a thousand words."?

I'd be genuinely interested to know what percentage of recorded 'female' sex offenders are actually trans. Because for something that 'never happens'... it seems to keep happening?

It has already been tested and proven correct. You can also easily see this by looking at prisoner stats - over half of trans-identified males are in prison for sexual offences, compared to around 20% of non-trans identified male prison population.

ScoldsBridle · 14/02/2025 08:14

Their previous name is available online (different Christian and surname). Previous jail sentence for theft, violence, S.A. of a minor. Definitely a male.
