🧵1 Is being transgender a lifestyle choice, a fetish, or a psychological quirk? Decades of clinical research, neuroanatomy, and genetics say absolutely not. The medical consensus shows that gender identity is a deeply rooted, biological trait.

FYI, the lingerie department in Marks and Spencer - or any shop - is not a woman's space. It is not a single-sex space either. Staff members of all genders, as well as shoppers of all genders, are free to walk - and speak - in that department. It's M&S, not Orwell Stores.

The funny thing is that while @jk_rowling and her flying monkeys are saying 'trans women must not go into women's single-sex spaces' there is no law against them doing so. There is not even any law that says it is illegal for men to do so.

Even if you disagree with what Led By Donkeys do, you have to give them credit for doing things that really make an impact. Projecting images of Trump, Epstein, Melania and Prince Andrew onto Windsor Castle is top grade. And it shows how the UK is *not* limiting free speech.

Of course, in women's loos, there are cubicles, so...

"Women say no" is actually "women say yes" based on support for trans people of the 200 most famous women (from a UK perspective). Pink ... transgender friendly/accepting Salmon ... trans friendly/accepting with caveats Grey ... unsure Pistachio ... hostile

You, and the man who backed your point up, really got him to show his true colours. And they were nasty.

Today, @JK_Rowling's mask slipped fully off. She has revealed to the world that she is transphobic. The star of the show, the cause of the mask slipping, the revealer of the horrible, nasty, inhumane sight behind Rowling's mask, is none other than the wonderful @IndiaWilloughby.

Hey @wesstreeting. If a transphobic nurse walks out of a resuscitation room every time a transgender doctor is present, that is clearly a risk to the patient, in the same way it would be if a racist walked out when a POC doctor entered. Beliefs, protected. Actions, not.

Even if you share @jk_rowling's views on transgender people, this tweet from her, mocking people who are asexual (who don't feel sexual attraction) is just downright nasty. It is very revealing of her contemptuous nature. What a vile woman she is.

The Supreme Court has never ruled that anyone of any gender, race, or other characteristic, should be prohibited from the lingerie department of clothes stores.

European Court of Human Rights has already ruled: - States must provide legal mechanisms for gender recognition. - Mandatory sterilization or other invasive medical procedures violate Article 8. - Trans individuals are entitled to respect for private life and personal identity.

I still recall THAT tweet. "Robert Peston is so far up Johnson's arse that he can see Laura Kuenssberg's shoes". 😆
