    Time to get rid of single sex toilets as people can’t be trusted to use them anymore

    What’s really needed is a rigorous toilet-user certification regime where people are granted a license to use the appropriate facilities based on their demonstrated ability to pee standing up, to consistently avoid pissing on the toilet seat, and to correctly wash their hands afterwards.

    I reviewed the original guidance and while this is a miniscule bit better, its still basically saying “ban trans people from single-sex spaces”.

    They’re saying that businesses and whole hospital wings will need to be built just to house them, but of course there is no legal requirement to do so and no funding from the government will ever be provided for this.

    What theh really want is for trans people to vanish from public life.

    “The supreme court was very clear … if you are providing separate toilets for women and men, that has to be on the basis of biological sex.”

    Wrong. An obvious lie.

    I know someone who has researched this extremely deeply, and they will tell you that the EHRC has been infested with transphobes since around 2020. Most non-transphobic staff has left since then, leaving a thoroughly rotten organization.

    An FOI they filed found that while they communicated thousands of times with anti-trans hate groups like Sex Matters since 2020, they didn’t record a single set of meeting minutes with trans advocacy groups since then. Not once.

    The current goal for some trans activists is to get the EHRC to lose its accreditation as a human rights organisation with GANRI, and there’s plenty enough evidence to do that. I just hope it will happen in time before this guidance becomes law.
