The actions of a few don't constitue for the actions of everyone, like I said they could find a way to make it work.
They could but it hasn’t happened - not in this bill that she’s opposing.
This is not about physically transitioning, it is about changing what you are legally recognized as which results in greater access to women’s spaces - and making the barrier to do so, way lower.
Don’t have gender dysphoria? The entire basis of most trans people transitioning in the first place? ( being uncomfortable living as your birth gender and feeling like the opposite sex) - no problem. This bill eliminates that requirement.
This also makes your timeline three months, that’s all it requires - three months commitment. I saw some guy reply “self ID just means if you permanently have been living as a woman for three months you get to change your birth certificate- that’s it - before you had to get a psychiatric diagnosis” - as if 3 months is “permanence” or that changing your birth certificate won’t have other wide ranging effects, or that gender dysphoria is unreasonable to expect when, as stated before, it was once the entire basis of belonging to this group.
As the guy above me also said, you make this too easy, then you make it taken far less seriously. That’s how it goes.
It’s not great to go - a few rapes are small potatoes compared to the many people this act would help - when it’s arguable how much it’d actually “help” in the first place.
EDIT: also I believe it passed, the UK as a whole did not adopt it though - it is only in Scotland
