From TT
GM [disagrees]
NC It was to stop her expressing her G C /sex realist beliefs
GM I don't agree
NC email Lottie Miles to you, 7 March. SP referred to Beth as he/man/male - appeared not a mistake but conscious misgendering. ED and I want to prevent SP using he/man etc in wider hospital.
NC This is trying to prevent these ideas being spread
GM Don't agree
NC Effect was to limit SP expression of her G C views
GM Wasn't to suggest SP be silenced, but to put her comments to her representative
NC But integrity of i/x already destroyed
NC restriction to SP not to speak was unwanted by SP
GM yes
NC [doc] SP interview with AG. SP says not great coming into work, staff members have been told not to talk to me about it. Not an enjoyable environment to work in
Fifer : Abdy fairt tae speak tae her. Naebdy wanted what shed jist got. Pure shame. Sake min.
N C It was Intimidating, embarrassing etc environment.
JR Can't put all those words to the witness.s
Big Sond wades in : suggests separating words out- humiliating, embarrassing etc
GM Awkward, I would say
NC Whole thing was kicked off by interaction with DU on 24/12
GM yes
NC By his presence in the cr etc
GM It was started by the dati x report
NC Re acceptable behaviour by male hospital employee who doesn't id as a woman. May be a long preamble
Big Sond (overheard muttering here we fuckin go again, Pete McPlumber if I'm no mistaken) "They can be difficult."
NC My hypothetical person is Peter. DU would call him a cis man
NC [Peter walks in on female colleague Jasmin, changing in f cr] Does male Peter deliberately violate colleagues boundaries
GM yes
NC And that is an ex of sexual harassment
GM unwanted behaviour
NC Commonly called sex harr
GM Harrassment anyway
There is a constellation of Anvils shimmering in the air. Like an iron chandelier. The threat is palpable. NC doesn't even glance at them.
NC If male staff installed webcam in f cr to watch them is sex harassment
GM y
NC cos violating privacy
GM y
NC if violates in different way, but going into f cr, also sex harrassment
GM
NC And if he refused to leave cr he would be suspended on gross misconduct
GM would be suspended
NC ON gross miscondiut
GM Would be a possible basis
NC But if Peter than says I'm a woman. Nothing else changed about him. Male clothes etc. I/x would say you are obviously a man, not trying to change
GM [agrees]
NC If Peter says I'm a gender non conforming woman, the investigator would be wholly unimpressed?
GM Yes
NC no further qs
The anvils clatter down, creating a cacophony of basso profundo CLONGs, and momentarily forming a 3 foot heap in the middle of the court room. NC absent mindedly swipes right and they vanish, not even leaving a dent in the council hard-wearing nylon carpet. There is a tang in the air. Nobody wants to know what it is, but everybody knows they need some fresher air.
