Dawn Butler, what a card, eh? (Give the image a moment to get through the screening - it show's JKR's response, which is perfect, as usual.)

DB has tweeted:
Currently, anyone can call themselves a nurse. There's been some very worrying cases of people impersonating nurses. We must stop it. My Bill will legally protect the title “nurse”, ensuring only Registered Nurses can use it. #ProtectNurse

Read the room!

"I’m hoping she will tackle India Willoughby about the latter recently putting "biological woman" in Twitter/X bio. IW also said recently, among other ludicrous things, that IW is pretty sure that if they did a cheek swab it would come out "female".
Deluded or what? I don’t think IW has heard of chromosomes.

Oh, she did...

Well in the argument I had, the straight friend was very concerned because she thought her butch lesbian friend would not be believed by the police and therefore would be strip searched by a male police officer. "That is literally what BTP have said!"
🙄

Hang on - that's the exact argument that was put to me. Were you also arguing with my child?

IamAporcupine · 28/04/2025 15:52

Ohhhhh, is your child a female in her 30s (maybe younger) who works in "events"?

What I do know is that, for some reason, during the argument I thought "you sound like a stubborn child, I don't envy your mother"! 😅

Given that seems to think he has a cervix...

Not just an ordinary cervix, but one that he can strip off and display on TV! (I wonder what shape he thinks a cervix is, and where exactly it is. Perhaps he thinks a cervix is like an appendage that dangles outside the groin?)

IamAporcupine Not even close. Ten years younger and male. The Transport police, the butch lesbian - exactly same scenario though. Weird.

It's a script they get off the interwebz.

Presumably police forces could have been pretending they thought masculine-presenting women were men all along. Why would this become an issue now?

Is it a hate crime to ask a Person if they are a nurse and show certificates?

Imagine if a man dressed as a woman ( and chose a nurses uniform as his 'woman-costume) . That person would simultaneously neither be a woman nor a nurse.
