A British Transport Police spokesperson said: “Under previous policy, we had advised that someone with a Gender Recognition Certificate (GRC) may be searched in accordance with their acquired sex, however as an interim position while we digest yesterday’s judgement, we have advised our officers that any same sex searches in custody are to be undertaken in accordance with the biological birth sex of the detainee.
“We are in the process of reviewing the implications of the ruling and will consider any necessary updates to our policies and practices in line with the law and national guidance.”
Sex is both variable and mutable. Both in our species and beyond it. Humans are not special.
I think you’re weird for caring so much about sex segregated spaces. If women (cis or trans) don’t feel safe in co-ed changing rooms with older men then there are much bigger problems with society that need to be addressed.
Mandating that trans men like the boxer below are required to use the womens’ room is obviously not going to make anybody feel safer.
Or how about a more rational idea- just make a smaller individual changing room for the minority of people like this. We already have disabled bathrooms which are gender neutral, why not disabled single unit changing rooms? I’m autistic and would never feel comfortable using a communal changing room anyway - whether I am surrounded by naked men or women. This would also benefit me and people like me as well.
But that would cost money and wouldn’t benefit rich people, so obviously every single “conservative” is against that idea. =/
Then why aren’t the leftists for it?
Every public bathroom is already required to have disabled units. I’m talking about changing rooms.
You’re going to have to explain how the difference between bathrooms and changing rooms is relevant, because I’ve got no clue what sort of point you’re trying to make.
Because every public bathroom I’ve been to has a disabled toilet.
Are you suggesting that every public bathroom is already single-occupant because it has a disabled stall or are you going off on a tangent that is entirely unrelated to the topic of sex segregated spaces vs single-occupant spaces?
Thankfully society agrees with me and not the online bubble world.
I don’t care what someone does with their body, the pronouns they pick it what they believe they are. The women/man in the photo you attached can identify as what they like. Someone just identifying as a male or female with no changes to their physical characteristics is also allowed in the opposite change room though? It’s always the extreme with you lot.
Show me a society that wants to require guys to use women’s spaces like you do, lol.
But do you care when someone that looks like a man uses the women’s room?
That’s not the question. The question is who gets to decide which bathroom people use. I think the government doesn’t need be involved in that decision, you seem to be of the “papers, please” persuasion.
You’re calling me extreme, when you’re here saying that people who have made changes to their physical characteristics should be required to use a restroom that doesn’t match them.
