Notley

I’m going to be honest - I don’t actually know how to properly put into words the anger that I have felt towards the British Conservative Party’s attitudes towards trans people. The British Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak, has said some awful things about how he feels that he has been “bullied” into believing that people can “change their sex”. This statement alone proves how uneducated he is on this topic.

The reality is, anywhere you are in the world, coming out as gay, trans, bisexual etc is dangerous. Everywhere we go, there is likely to be at least one person that wants to hurt us solely for who we are. And the reality is, the government isn’t likely to do anything about it. They are more focused on keeping their power through any means necessary. They are more focused on helping themselves instead of helping those who actually need it.

This post will be focusing on America, because I have seen the amount of people talking about this begin to quiet down:

As I’m sure most people in the UK are aware, Liz Truss has now been voted in as the new Conservative Leader, which makes her our current Prime Minister.

Currently in the UK the government does not believe that allowing trans women in women-only spaces is in accordance to the law. The British government believes that allowing trans women into places, such as rape crisis centres and domestic abuse shelter, aimed towards protecting all women, goes against the laws put in place and that it puts the legitimate aim of these spaces at risk.
