You know, it really helps restore my faith in human nature to see a dad fighting like this to protect the dignity and safety of his daughter, and her friends. Because that's what a good dad should do.

That’s very kind of you to say and I must also agree that there seems to be a paucity of fathers standing up to be counted. I do know several locally so we do exist but…

Billboard Chris has certainly stood up to be counted. My OH helps support financially and sometimes fills in consultations or sends emails. Thankfully we no longer have a child in school.

Credit where it's due; some words were big ones and correct spelling too.

We're not covering the meaning of "rational" until next term.

This made me laugh thank you 🫡

We are horribly late - the little gifty will be sent when I can get to the post office!

ETA I hope your thing went well and do update us when you can.

Today we were Strangers. But welcomed.

Successful day, my daughter must feel very encouraged

Ooooh 😀
Were there relevant questions being asked in the House? I'm glad you had a successful day.

Dragonasaurus · 27/04/2026 21:54

Thankyou SSSiS and thankyou to your daughter. I am not local to you, but I’ve raised your case with every canvasser who has spoken to me. It’s such a compelling case, it gets everyone actually thinking about the implications. I hope you both know how much support you have

Hello hello - I have seen the school and the councils response to the application for a judicial review.

I won't, can't, go into the details. But apparently my pants are on fire (and always have been) and I once kicked a kitten (and laughed).

Paraphrased.

Ah, so they're doubling down on going low then. What a surprise.

Love your brass tracks matter of factness and arid dry SoH. So needed in the battle against unreality and virtue signalling.
They really think you and your daughter are the devil.
They're so gone that there are 7 year olds I'd rather trust setting public policy than these overeducated and overcredentialized buffoons.

murasaki · 02/05/2026 16:00

I assume they are calling you a liar as there are no boys in the changing rooms as they are girls. Which they are not.

😂 it's as if they think they can just make stuff up, isn't it? How disappointing for them that your paper trail is so extensive.

Hedgehogforshort · 02/05/2026 22:48

@SingleSexSpacesInSchools what makes me snigger is they will have no idea your case has such a following on mumsnet, and should they be foolish enough not to concede it will end up all over everywhere with the school and its foolish leadership named and shamed.

moto748e · 02/05/2026 23:24

I'd be very surprised if they were unaware of it, but yeah, they're certainly foolish. The story has been in the Times, after all.

You're obviously not lying about the issue, OP. They will be grasping onto something else, anything, in order to undermine you.

It's shit behaviour.

AMansAManForAllThat · 03/05/2026 07:18

Presumably there don’t have to be boys in the girls for there to be a case. The policy itself, that they will put boys in the girls at their own discretion, is enough?

Assuming there is a male child in the female areas, how is that child’s dignity and privacy protected in a court case like this?
I’m absolutely on the SSSIS position, I’m just wondering how that situation is handled in court cases. My ignorance, I know.

I have no details but I expect that the case will be about the practice/policy of boys in the girls’ changing room. If that has been manifested then SSIS’ DD would give evidence that this had happened/been manifested but I don’t think the identities of the boys needs to be revealed or them called as witnesses unless the school deny their policy/practice?

I assume the stuff about lying and being a meanie, is character assassination relating the immediate matters in hand. Other interactions with the school like upsetting a teacher or not volunteering with the PTA. Like Sandie Peggie’s WhatsApp thread etc

I’m just wondering, if one side says this is happening, there is a child in the wrong place, and the other says no there isn’t, how dare you judge the femininity of our girls in our changing rooms, you racist bigot, blinded by your own cis privilege and tendency to kick kittens, I’m not sure how that would be handled.
I was in an interesting conversation recently when a very confident woman was telling me that you can’t tell someone’s sex at all, not even from a DNA test. Luckily others at the table disagreed, but her confidence in the impossibility of knowing sex was a wonder to behold. ‘Everyone her age votes green’, apparently.

Yes because you kicked a kitten - your daughter and hundreds other girls have to be exposed to teenaged boys penises when they are forced to change to their underwear in school. Oh and be leered at by said boys. Since they are self defining laydeez who are lesbians.

So your daughter suffers the crimes of voyerism and exhibitionism against her because her Dad is a meanie.

Someone should tell these self righteous unboundaried mysoginist pillocks that even convicted murderers have human rights. Your standing and reputation has sweet f-all to do with child protection.

And even if they say you’re lying - all they have to do is prove that a boy has never been given permission to get his penis and testicle out the girls changing room. That should be a breeze for them.

P.s. Glad she liked the cards. More en route.
P.s.s. In this instance I’d use the collective noun - even though not grammatically correct - a parasite of pillocks.
