12 thousand angry men
In general you want prosecutors to know some basic facts, like the difference between women and men.
It what?
So I follow the link and find the subhead Trans and non-binary victims and start at the beginning…and am dumbfounded. The CPS sounds like gender fanatics on social media.
Gender identity is not the same as anatomical sex. Gender identity is what you know your gender to be and can only be decided by the individual for themselves. Gender identity might be the same as assigned sex (cisgender) or different to assigned sex (trans). Gender identity is not the same as sexuality; trans and non-binary people identify as heterosexual, gay, lesbian, bisexual, pansexual, asexual, and aromatic, amongst other identities.
What does any of that have to do with law and crime and prosecution?? People have fantasies, people play games, people act out their fantasies with like-minded others…but none of that means the state and law enforcement and the legal system have to join in. Prosecutors should be rooted in reality, not fantasy.
“Gender” in the sense the CPS is using it here is just a kind of toy of the mind. It’s a game of let’s pretend. It’s not a brute reality like rape statistics.
Trans people know their gender to be different to that which they were assigned at birth.
No they don’t. That’s not a thing. It’s just the jargon that goes with the ideology. You can’t “know” that you have a “gender” that’s not the one you were “assigned at birth.” People’s sex is revealed at birth, and that’s the end of it.
There’s a lot more of this drivel; it’s shocking to read.
It’s astonishing that such nonsense has so much influence.
We’re living in a permanent state of “Begging the question.”
So if gender identity is not the same as bological sex, then a) why use the words ‘male’ and ‘female’ which are words for sex to name gender identity?
b) why does any gender identity need a disguise (social/medical/surgical) as the opposite biological sex?
bascule
I also sometimes identify as “aromatic”, especially when I’ve been rolling in flowers.
(They should have used a more woke autocorrect.)
I came here for the comments about “aromatic.”
I’m not disappointed.
Thank you, internet.
Hahahaha I was so infuriated by the CPS’s indulgence in childish drivel that I didn’t even pause for “aromatic.” I’m glad others did. We need to be thorough about these things.
