Proposed gender reform is ‘bad law’

The [Gender Recognition Reform] Bill carries a high risk of becoming another piece of bad law, with unintended consequences which will be most damaging to women and to young people at their most vulnerable.

What chance of a fair hearing?

Women will ask: when Scottish Government Ministers have so quickly abandoned their commitment to respectful debate and MSPs charged with scrutinising gender recognition reform are so thoroughly compromised, what hope is there of a fair hearing?

Wonderful women

We thank JK, Johann, Joan and Joanna for showing incredible solidarity and strength towards women. We salute these wonderful women today and every day.

The Great Pretence

If we cannot recognise sex, we cannot confront sexism or misogyny. Being this untethered from reality is dangerous. Only the noisy women who won't wheesht can navigate us back home.

Inspiring grassroots activism

I want you to know there are many women like me – quietly doing our own thing in our own communities too so you don't feel all the pressure on your shoulders. We’ve got you!

An irresistible force meeting an immovable object

A last-minute meeting with the Scottish Government to express our concerns about proposed GRA reform was a pointless exercise.

I’m a woman who won’t wheesht

My message to the Scottish Government is that we are no longer accepting your failure to engage with our VALID concerns. We will not succumb to the bullying of your fly lords. We will be heard!

Selling yourself for sex is not a job

The sex industry is about control and people having what they want, regardless of the needs and wants of others. Supporting people into entering the “oldest profession” is simply enabling harm against them. Those being harmed are predominantly women.
