@dinahbrand2@PeterTatchell It is possible that Tatchell would not particularly concern himself with the details of why children could be still pre-pubertal and yet past the age of consent.
One of those things that never happens if you open up women's changing rooms to any man who wants to come inside has happened. Again.

As a socialist aligned, atheist woman I am increasingly aware of, and disappointed in, the hypocritical misogyny of left wing men like McDonnell.
Women's rights are not for leftist men to give away to those they deem more worthy, they exist to protect women on the basis of sex.
This is truly shocking. How is this to be enforced? Is the Labour Party bureaucracy seriously suggesting that checks will be made on entrances to the conference hall on whether a person is trans? Are we going to see trans women being dragged from the hall? https://t.co/WrMEZ4gFiX
That a man have to be dragged out (to John McDonnell's horror) requires that he
1. Enter a space where he knows he should not be.
2. Refuse to leave quietly when repeatedly asked.
3. Be protesting women's right to a single sex space.
4. Chosen the optics of physical removal.

At some point in the next 24 hrs, John’s going to do some whining post along the lines of:
‘Awful replies, them women be bitchez, we should burn them, can we have more tolerance’

Labour Party Rule Book
Chapter 10: 'All individual members of the Party aged between 14 and 26 years inclusive shall be members of Young Labour.'
John McD: This is truly shocking. How is this to be enforced? Are we going to see 74 year olds dragged from meetings? Etc 🙃
@glosswitch@johnmcdonnellMP Indeed. It's such a tedious strawman argument, isn't it. You can find a limitless examples of [Group X] who have meetings to which only [Group X] are admitted, where presumably John would now demand some sort of ridiculous test at the entrance to try to prove his bullshit point.
@johnmcdonnellMP So you're suggesting that trans-identifying men need enforcing and dragging out of places? Or maybe they'll agree to respect women's boundaries and the law?
@johnmcdonnellMP What should be,but sadly isn't, 'truly shocking' is the deep-rooted sexism and misogyny in @UKLabour that resulted ultimately in this low-paid, public sector-working single mum, (who overcame that to enter Parliament) spending years being bullied out for defending women's spaces.
@johnmcdonnellMP John, you're not engaging with the topic which is women's rights to all kinds of other, very important stuff. No-one cares about your conference hall, John: for women it is much, much more basic/profound than that. Do you see?
Let me see if I’ve got this right…
An 11-year-old girl can’t legally drink alcohol, get a tattoo, have sex, watch a PG-rated film without parental consent, or even create many social media accounts.
But she CAN consent to take part in a clinical experiment involving life changing drugs that could permanently affect her physical development and reproductive organs.
How does that make sense?
The government will ban social media for under-16s but pump dangerous puberty blockers into 11 year old children???!!!
Make it make sense!!!!
Many of these children will grow into gay men and lesbians - STOP THE BLOODY TRIAL!!
