22 December was a black day for gender critical feminism: in spite of lively protests outside Parliament, Scotland passed the law allowing gender self-identification or self-id -without exception for sex offenders who will be able to freely access women's spaces by identifying themselves as women. Also in Spain, the Ley Trans, which has a very similar structure, has passed the first step in the lower house and is on its way to final approval in the coming weeks [...].

We have told you several times about JK Rowling's commitment to women's rights in Scotland, where Prime Minister Nicola Sturgeon is pushing for the passage of a law that would introduce a 'super self-ID' (see here), a very liberal gender identity. Last year, even before the bill was debated, the appointment of a transgender man, Mridul Wadhwa, as chief executive of Edinburgh's leading anti-violence shelter, which of course would also welcome men who 'identify as women' in what [...]

JK Rowling takes a photo of herself wearing a t-shirt that reads 'Nicola Sturgeon, destroyer of women's rights' to support women protesting in front of the Scottish Parliament against the controversial gender recognition reform bill wanted by Scotland's First Minister. Activists from For Women Scotland gathered in front of the Scottish Parliament this morning for a demonstration against the bill promoted by Sturgeon, which would make gender self-determination easier - we have [...]

There is a real war going on in the United States over the ideology of gender identity and its promotion in schools. A 'culture war' pitting the elites, who fund and promote gender ideology, against the ordinary people who oppose it (see the Disney case here). While Biden from day one has made many legislative concessions to trans activism at the federal level, the Republicans have intercepted the discontent of the citizenry with various counter-legislation at the state level, such as [...]

For transgender people like me, the Scottish government's bill to reform the Gender Recognition Act is a disaster. If passed unamended, the bill would introduce 'self-id', wiping out the checks and balances that make the gender reassignment process trustworthy in the eyes of the public. This is not an insignificant administrative detail: allowing any man to actually call himself a woman just because he wants to is an affront to the [...]

The Scottish Parliament started the debate on the reform of the Gender Recognition Act, a law that allows people with a medical diagnosis of gender dysphoria to obtain a "certificate of recognition of gender identity" (GRC). The reform, tabled by MP Shona Robison (Scottish National Party), calls for a "de-pathologisation" of the GRC, i.e. it would introduce gender self-determination (Self ID), allowing those who do not suffer from any dysphoria but identify as transgender to change their sex on their birth certificate [...].

Wherever gender self-certification or self-id is in force, women's spaces are violated by men who identify themselves as women - we said this the other day in the Senate hearing. In addition to bathrooms, changing rooms, hospital wards, prisons, work and political quotas, sports and so on, there are also statistics, and in every sector. On this, too, gender-critical feminism is accused of spreading fake news. We have also been accused by the centre-left senators who support the Zan ddl and [...]

Social networks such as Tiktok have long been a place of trans-indoctrination of minors with non-compliant behaviour: doctors instructing them in hormone therapies and trans-activists propagating the illegal procurement and self-management of hormones. In the case we are describing, real hormonal parties organised by a moderator of the social network Reddit. Self-management and even the self-production of hormones are a workhorse of the trans Paul Preciado, as well as a recurrent motif in trans-xenomaniacism (see here). Meanwhile just a few days ago Arkansas became [...]
