If you’re doing the “trans men in women’s toilets” gotcha, 1) you’re making what was always a crap argument 2) you’re revealing that you haven’t read the UK Supreme Court judgment because it says trans men aren’t allowed in women’s spaces (because we look like men) OR men’s spaces
News that NHS will publish discriminatory trans guidance around healthcare treatment and access - how will BASHH maintain & adopt new and radical approaches to support trans people seeking sexual health & HIV treatment & preventions? We won’t reach 2030 targets w transphobia in healthcare
