As a team that includes trans and non-binary people we know any criticism we make of Cass will be seen as ideological This is why we grounded our work in a methodical critique, using established tools Whilst our identities still matter, this is about the poor and biased application of methodology

Proud to have been apart of this team. Research methodology matters. Policy should be based on methodologically sound research. Our results show the many methodological flaws of the Cass Review. Check it out ⬇️

On the UK Supreme Court's decision yesterday - lots of people are erroneously taking it as evidence that trans women are not women. This misunderstands the fact that the law of any country does not control the concept of gender. No trans woman in the UK or beyond is any less of a woman now. 👇
