Of course it's this ruling that's put a target on his back and not that he's a big bleeping bloke trying to convince us he's a woman 😂
Yep, he's a hulking great male athlete. Most people are no physical threat to him at all. And no-one has banned him from competing, that was a complete dummy-throwing fit. He can compete as a man.

If Bridges was complaining about all of the attention trans people had in the last week, why do they need so many days, weeks, months of visibility. Do you want to be seen or not?

You are a mediocre man, you do not deserve airtime to spout rubbish.
Probably because they weren't being called stunning and brave like they normally are. 🙄

Is this what’s going to happen now? Organisations are just going to ignore the ruling and carry on as before (except now they have no excuse for not knowing they’re breaking the law) and nothing will be done unless women spend time, energy and money pursuing through the courts?
I just cannot believe it if that’s the case. It’s outrageous but that’s what seems to be happening.
A few cases will happen where the Supreme Court judgement leads to big payouts and sponsors will get nervous and then we will see change.

The great news is, a lower court cannot overrule the Supreme Court. That's why we're seeing an awful lot of Mantrums at the moment, they know the game is up.

I asked previously, but either people have no idea, or the question got lost:

Will Uptonogood have to go back in the witness box?

Sorry to harp on about my hairdresser again but it occurred to me last night that this is it. Next time I see her, we won’t have this conversation because the law will have been enforced and the whiny people will have backed down and there will no longer be anything to discuss.

Not sure, the case had been continued to the next available date but then it turned out the NHS Fife might have been withholding a load of evidence.
Unclear what happens when they reconvene at this stage. If there's significant new evidence the tribunal could compel him I think?

I'd love Naomi Cunningham to get another go at him now!

I am avoiding the news but are any "cis" women being interviewed? Is the other side of the story being told?

If Bridges has threatened Rowling in any way, we can report that interview to IPSO (I think?).

I'm sure we can find you a decent alternative between us!

Received this from a local council today (their email signature).
Even though my boss agreed with me, apparently “duck/Off is not appropriate to share in response 😆

I don't remember seeing any but that could be just my confirmation bias.

I do think someone at ITV has done a dirty to poor delicate little Em though. At the beginning of the interview, there's a shot of him sitting very bloke like in the chair. In a way that very few women - who have been socialised from birth to make themselves small and cross their legs when sitting down etc - would sit (especially if they were going to be on national TV)

I half wonder if the some of the media are consciously joining in with Operation Let Them Speak

As ever, Helen Joyce nails it with her summary of “Cross dressing middle aged blokes……”
Who would want to share a female only space with the delightful looking man in the second picture?

I love a community note!!

Where did the idea that biological sex isn’t binary come from? I keep seeing people saying scientists have said it’s far more complicated than that but I kinda feel something that massive would be common knowledge surely!!
