FWS and Scottish prison service - "trans inmates left sexless..."

[impossibletoday]

If the Court of Session does declare the Supreme Court's FWS ruling incompatible with the European Court of Human Rights, via a Declaration of Incompatibility... can't the D of I itself be appealed and overturned by the Supreme Court?

Or would that be like the SC marking its own homework? IANAL (obviously!)

Did they miss the part where only sex and gender reassignment are in law and that for the purposes of equality males reassigned gender aren't actually the female sex and you still can't change sex.

Yes absolutely thick as mince.

61 you say… hmmm 🤔

They (can I call them ‘They’ ?) clearly are suffering from befuddlement so presumably wouldn’t notice where they were.

What would happen to them if they were physically ill (as opposed to mentally ill)? Would life-saving medical care be considered unacceptably cruel if it resulted in existential crisis ? Does SNP demand that trans-dientifying male prisoners be mistreated by undermedication to facilitate delusion affirmation ?

I never fail to be gobsmacked at how the trans ideologues demand substandard care for trans-identifying people.

We-e-ll, there was that business of a bunch of the more frothy cybernat accs suddenly going dark after the Israeli missile strike caused an internet blackout in Iran last year. It's possible that the SNP dog is to some extent being wagged by hostile foreign tails without realising it.

Most of Iran's internet is down at the moment; the few accounts getting through via Starlink are showing massive street protests.

I'm not going to sit here and predict the collapse of the Iranian regime tonight. But their economy is in freefall and something is going to explode.

Going back to Scotland, the SNP are terrified of appearing anything less than progressive (as long as it doesn't involve women), or appearing to agree with Westminster. I would love them to be voted out in May.

“in an intermediate zone of neither one sex nor the other” sounds like an electronica band lyric. I can see the pvc boiler suits now.

Band name:
The Phantom Zone
The Sexless Abysmal Derelict Building Zone
Boy’s Own
or
Diane’s Rusty Nuts

Yup. There are 64 genders including male, female and non-binary if you believe the 14 yr old who tried to give me a lecture about it one time.

You can only use "They" if those folk identify as "They". If those folk happen to be Xe/Xim/Ze/Zir [or summat else], then you're a BIGOT! points finger

The last time I did supply*, I had a pupil who claimed to have the pronouns xe/xim. Said pupil's best friend retorted "Aye, and my pronouns as 'yer/maw'!"

I implore you, won't you think of those who identify as yer/maw?

*Note to anyone seeking to get me struck off - I'm now retired and no longer on the teaching register. Thank goodness.

WearyAuldWumman …I've just tried pointing my finger but noticed that in doing so, my other fingers are pointing back at me!

Trans inmates sexless if banned from female prisons, say ministers

Very misleading headline: trans people are not banned from female prisons at all - only the male ones are banned. Isn't it interesting how nobody actually seems to care in the slightest when it's the other way around... now who was it trying to erase trans people again?

Total
Fucking
Loons

Before the SC clarification, in English prisons at least, we were told that TiM would not be held in women's prisons if they committed a violent and/or sexual offence against a woman. Actually if that's what they were being imprisoned for. As we know sexual offences are rarely successfully prosecuted.

Anyway, I was thinking today what would they have done if a TiM assaulted another TiM. Would they have seen it as an offence against a woman, so off to the men's prison, or against a man. Would it depend if the victim had a GRC or had all the surgeries. Similarly, if the victim was a TiF. What then?

Sorry, I realise this is a derail but I needed to put this somewhere.

ScotGov are deminstrating what a bunch of fuckwits work there. On the plus side the nonbins must be feeling validated. So ill wind.

😢

I learned my lesson. But it's the sin that keeps on giving. 😕

Scottish government is a mess, they just need to follow the Supreme Court ruling and look after single sex spaces. Potentially create a trans prison if required? Females in prison have been on the receiving end of male abuse and are deeply traumatised , they desperately need safe female spaces

ScotGov and UKGov are tying themselves in knots, lying, stalling, and generally acting like shameless sleekit fuckwits over the Supreme Court ruling because they don't want to give in to the women of FWS. We've all had to deal with men like this who go apeshit in trying to punish you if you, a mere woman, beat him at something.

They feel irritation and shame at being bested by 3 middle-aged women who have the audacity to question their betters and to not be a huge NGO, with latent kudos attached to their name, while doing so - Swinney and Starmer would feel better if they were beaten by Amnesty or Stonewall, those names have panache and elan in their minds.

Both governments are refusing to give in and obey the law in order to demonstrate how little they care for uppity women who disagree with them.

I have a more sinister suspicion.

They view women as what some radfems call "the rape class". By that, radfems mean "the class of people who exist as valid targets for rapists within a patriarchy", "the people that it's OK to rape under at least some circumstances", and by extension "the people who should expect to be raped".

To them, putting men into the same cages as women who cannot even freely access the morning after pill, let alone an abortion, is more acceptable than putting those men into cages with other men, because women are the rape class and men are not. Putting women at risk of rape conforms to patriarchal social order. Putting men at risk of rape violates that social order.

I reckon we could go Net Zero and 100% electric vehicles tomorrow if we hooked an alternator up to Elizabeth Fry's coffin.

But they have! The rapist gamete, according to the Greens leader. I wonder if it's called Spislagg, in reference to its most famous producer...

'Sexless'.

I may be a dinosaur, but to me that definition suggests 'starved of intimate interaction'. However, the fact that these people have an endless problem with accurate terminology comes as no surprise!

Don't worry I did as well, @silverwrath , multiple times.

Never again and I'll be telling any of the SNP folks that come round to my door during the election time exactly why not.

On one hand, every single woman in the vicinity of this man may experience anything including distress, discomfort, triggering of previous trauma, emotional and sexual threat and harassment, loss of her privacy, dignity, sense of safety, actual assault and severe injury.

On the other, a man may experience a difficult psychological feeling. (I could be a hell of a lot more honest and cynical there about what he's actually most likely to really experience.)

Give me bloody strength.

They don't really think men become sexless. They are performing a parody of feminism, and are misusing the 'intersectional' argument.

They are obviously being incentivised by someone to push this complete bullshit. What other explanation could there be?

"If you wonder why @scotgov was influenced by "Convention rights" argument and reverted back to claiming access by self-id, this could form part of the answer. Trans orgs have bi-monthly meetings with officials and regular roundtables with Ministers. No-one else gets this access."
