I live in a suburb north of our city (south coast, NOT Brighton), have seen numerous AGP/trans in our high street lately, more than you'd think possible considering the size of the area.Yep, Edinburgh is hoaching. You can’t walk for a few minutes out of Waverley before spotting one. Glasgow isn’t far behind.
I’ve seen a fair few recently in my area, one of whom is a lad my eldest son was friends with at primary school. He doesn’t ‘pass’ and there is no way I’d refer to him as she no matter how much pink lipstick he plasters on.Is this all thanks to Nicola Sturgeon?
I live in London and I haven’t spotted any recently at all round my way.
This is exactly why I wear my "Adult Human Female" T shirtBloody hell, Edinburgh is completely captured! This morning I popped into a coffee shop and was served by a massive bloke with shoulders like a prop forward but had two butterfly clips in their hair and a big sparkly “she/them” badge. Next on to the cinema and was greeted by a 5ft 2 person in a bright pink top (all other staff were wearing navy) and had a bum fluff beard, tiny hands and feet and a he/him badge.
Firstly, dress how you want but who are they trying to convince with their badges? Themselves? Because it certainly wasn’t anybody else!
And secondly, why do they need to highlight themselves? To feel more special? I would have much more respect if they just got on with their job rather than trying to be “stunning and brave”
Oh ffs! The whole school years extracurricular work is based around the book. I need to look up the post that had a letter you can send to school. Thanks.I've just had a look at the book on Amazon. I think you're going to have to be 'that' parent, I would not at all be happy about this material being used to indoctrinate 5 year old children

I am that parent at school - one of them. There will be more than you think. You are entitled to say your child does not get taught about that.Oh ffs! The whole school years extracurricular work is based around the book. I need to look up the post that had a letter you can send to school. Thanks.
I'm unsure how different things are, but in Scotland parents and sometimes solicitors can get involved at council local authority level to refuse to partake in lots of things, perhaps mixed sex dancing (Scottish country dancing, don't ask!!) or gender or sexual health or anything really. Been a big push back from parents after the Named Person legislative shambles.I am that parent at school - one of them. There will be more than you think.

That’s the one! Thank youIs this it - I posted it a couple of weeks ago -
This is excellent. Thank you for posting it.
Yeh all the Muslim girls and fellas at my school were always pulled out of sex edI am that parent at school - one of them. There will be more than you think. You are entitled to say your child does not get taught about that.
Government guidance on sex and relationship education: (I think ‘relationship education’ is compulsory in primary schools which this would fall under, but surely you have a right to oppose any teaching that children can ‘transition’.)View attachment 2705040
Urgh, should I be worried? I’ve trimmed the picture down as much as I can and scribbled out the teacher’s name.
Here I was, feeling smug that my kids’ high school are taking a balanced approach to teaching them about gender identity and I get this from the primary school my littlest one attends.
She’s 5 years old and knows there are girls and boys. She’s fine with her knowledge that some things are considered girly and some boyish but that you can choose to do, or wear, or be those things regardless of whether you are a girl or boy. She doesn’t need to know about gender or indeed “all (made up) genders”. I have a good relationship with school but I won’t be able to let it slide if they try to indoctrinate my child with this crap.
I live in between two cities, the town I live in specifically. Most people are level headed and don't care what you do in your own time. Most wouldn't support them being in women's spaces though. They/thems are generally taken the piss out of tbh.I visited Manchester recently and felt the same. London I didn't notice anything. Is it more noticeable in smaller University cities maybe?
I think it's easier to avoid it in Glasgow. If you avoid the rainbow flags and "vegan" places you're fairly safe.Yep, Edinburgh is hoaching. You can’t walk for a few minutes out of Waverley before spotting one. Glasgow isn’t far behind.
Yep it’s the that west end, almost English accent you hear from some young folk in Glasgow that makes my skin crawlI think it's easier to avoid it in Glasgow. If you avoid the rainbow flags and "vegan" places you're fairly safe.
But the west end is bad and they're trying in bits of the southside.
And they've mainly got English accents!!!
This case makes me so angry, but also really sad and depressed. I'm angry for Roz Adams but even more so, what about the poor victim? How can anyone think that it's appropriate to disregard her concerns about the sex of the person who she would be confiding in? I'm genuinely bewildered by whole situation.First mainstream media report I’ve seen on this
Scotland's rape crisis centres in turmoil as gender ideology threatens female-only service – Susan Dalgety — The Scotsman

A Glasgow Uni accent I've always known it as. Again, no offence to the actual uniYep it’s the that west end, almost English accent you hear from some young folk in Glasgow that makes my skin crawlKevin Bridges covers this topic nicely (absolutely no offence meant against English accents guys, it’s the fake poshness that’s cringe). Defo easier to avoid in Glasgow. I think it’s the young crowd in Edinburgh and lots of ‘hip’ places (god I sound old!!) that makes them come out in droves
Totally understandable. All the hyperbolic woo chat around this stuff proves our point. As if any woman would ever need an explanation of why it really needs to be women working in rape crisis. But here we are having to explain water to fish..This case makes me so angry, but also really sad and depressed. I'm angry for Roz Adams but even more so, what about the poor victim? How can anyone think that it's appropriate to disregard her concerns about the sex of the person who she would be confiding in? I'm genuinely bewildered by whole situation.
And surely, if you work in that environment, your need to be validated, or whatever, should automatically be less than the needs of the victim. It should go without saying. If you don't have that fundamental understanding and belief, then you shouldn't be working there.
The victim's needs should be at the front and centre of everything that the Centre does. It seems bizarre to even have to state this. Roz Adams was the only person putting the victim first, and she's the one who gets charged with misconduct? How can this be?
On a different note, there's an article in the Telegraph this evening about some co-ed boarding schools who have introduced policies saying that pupils can be housed in dorms of their chosen gender. I mean seriously? All safeguarding concerns thrown out in favour of gender ideology.
I'm feeling really despondent at the moment. This battle just seems so big and neverending. And I think that what makes it worse is that I genuinely don't understand how otherwise intelligent people in charge of these organisations, just don't get it. For example, how can any headteacher not be concerned by all of this? They are steeped in safeguarding. They should understand basic biology and set policies in accordance with this knowledge.
I'm really feeling overwhelmed by it all right now.
