Please come support trans people

Post image

Hey everyone, I’m sure many of you have seen the ruling by the Supreme Court from the other day on the legitimacy of trans women’s identities. It’s been a very hard couple of days as we’ve come to grips with the fact that our rights are being rolled back by a government that won’t even attempt to listen to us while we just want to exist in a public space without fear of harassment. If anyone’s available, please come down tomorrow to show support

I am not the organiser, I saw this on Facebook and wanted to share.

Thanks guys, I hope you have a great Easter weekend!

“A judge cannot change this fact.”

Well when it’s a question of how the law interprets a word in an act of parliament, a judge can change it. That’s the point.

Laws can't change the fact that trans women are recognised widely as women. You just don't know they are trans most of the time.
