Trans activists ‘wrong over single-sex code’
Geraldine Scott - Assistant Political Editor
Transgender rights activists are spreading misinformation about guidance that protects single-sex spaces by claiming it erodes trans people’s rights, the equalities regulator has said.

Mary-Ann Stephenson, chair of the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC), said criticism of its updated code of practice had made the “real alarm” felt by trans people worse by wrongly suggesting they had lost protections or would face sex checks.

Stephenson said women had also been affected by not having access to single-sex spaces. She said: “Women who believe that their right to privacy, dignity or safety have not been properly protected deserve to have those concerns taken seriously too.”

Last week the Liberal Democrats passed a conference motion branding the code discriminatory and “unworkable”.

At Labour’s conference Joanne Thomas, the general secretary of the Usdaw union and chairwoman of Labour Unions, said the law and the EHRC code would hurt trans and nonbinary people and argued that rights had been rolled back.

Stephenson said the code did not create new law or abolish protections for transgender people.

She said: “Recognising women’s need for access to single-sex services doesn’t require us to dismiss the rights of trans people. And recognising the vulnerability of trans people doesn’t require us to dismiss women’s concerns.”

The EHRC’s code of practice came into force in August, 16 months after the Supreme Court ruled that sex in relation to the Equality Act must be defined biologically. This means single-sex lavatories, changing rooms, hospital wards and refuges must be used based on a person’s birth sex, not the gender with which they identify.

The Good Law Project, which is backing a legal challenge against the code, accused the EHRC of producing “discriminatory” and “unworkable” guidance and said service providers which followed it would be “helping to strip trans pe…

We can’t let Christine Drazan rewrite history. I found the statement she issued when Trump announced that he was sending troops to Portland. Despite what she now implies, she didn’t oppose Trump sending troops to Portland. Thankfully, Tina Kotek & Dan Rayfield successfully fought off Trump!

The utilitarians and Rationalists are of course a postmodern Renaissance-era neoplatonist movement equivalent to the cultural ideas Marsilio Ficino or Pico della Mirandola; holding the Image and the Mind to be more real than empirical reality.

not that you should expect anything more than rank idiocy from this pair of racists, but the idea that whiteness means a "high trust" society of "social cohesion" is some of the stupidest shit i have ever heard. these people live in a fantasy land that you could dispel by simply opening a book.

People need to understand the people leading the AI industry, transhumanist/longtermist/EA movements, and tech broadly, as died-in-the-wool pseudoscientists, denialists (climate change, the holocaust), and crank purveyors of conspiritualist woo of the highest order. The height of Rationalism.

Perhaps we should hold men up to the same gender standard they hold us. One dies of alcohol poisoning during rush? Oh, well maybe he shouldn't have been drinking all night. What was he wearing? Why was he trying to impress them? He was asking for it.

I know some neighbouring states have struggled to legislate against these abusive religious practices. Does oregon have laws that find parents at fault if their child dies of a treatable illness that they chose to pray over instead of allowing actual care?

I also believe in protecting children from abusive and dangerous homes. While Katy Cornell advocates for safer homes by protecting kids from parents who abuse drugs, she's also part of a faith healing community that doesn't believe in taking your kids to the hospital and instead praying for healing.

Image of white woman in a kitchen. Katy Cornell for State Representative post: As a mom, there are some issues that cut right to the heart. This is one of them.
No child should be left in a dangerous home where fentanyl, meth or other deadly drugs put their life at risk. We can have compassion for parents struggling with addiction. We can help them get clean, get back on their feet and work toward bringing their family back together.
But the safety of the child has to come first.
When the warning signs are there, our laws and our state agencies need to protect children before tragedy strikes. We should never have to look back after a child dies and ask why more wasn't done.
I believe we can support parents, work to keep families together when it is safe, and still draw a firm line when a child's life is in danger.
As your representative, I will always put the safety of our children first and work to give every child the opportunity to grow up safe, healthy and surrounded by people who love them.
Together, let's fix what's broken and protect what matters most.
