Have no doubt if the #ConversionPracticesDraftBill becomes law we will have self identification enshrined in law. Self identification of the opposite sex, any sex, both sexes at once, or even a different species
Family conversations will be fraught with worry.
Worry that mum or dad, & siblings, could be criminalised for saying the wrong thing. The prospect of the family being broken up, parents (& siblings) criminalised & facing 5 years in prison will be an uninvited guest in every home
Safeguarding will be destroyed.
In schools, after school club activities, church and sports, safeguarding will no longer exist. Who will dare support safeguarding if in doing so they face the prospect of 5 years in prison?
These are not hyperbolic fantasies. Criminalisation for speaking the truth
about biological sex is embedded in the Conversion Practices Draft Bill.
In 2018 women took to the streets to raise awareness that self identification was being sneaked in under the revision of the Gender Recognition Act.
We won that fight. But claiming sex is based on a feeling not biology rumbled on for another seven years.
Meanwhile women lost their jobs, were doxed and harassed. All for knowing sex is real.
It took 7 years before the Supreme Court clarified sex in the Equality Act refers to biological sex not whatever is on a Gender Recognition Certificate or a feeling in a man’s read.
We should not be having to fight the same fight against self identification today.
If we lose this fight and the #ConversionPracticesDraftBill becomes law there will be no women’s spaces (in real life or online) free from men in dresses (men with a sexual fetish). Children and those with special needs will lose safeguarding.
Destransitioners will never be able to receive proper help with their detransitioning.
If we lose this fight and the #ConversionPracticesDraftBill becomes law 'No debate' will be back but on steroids!
