Way too partial part two

The BBC is so shitty on this subject.

The campaign group Sex Matters, which backed Sandie Peggie in the case, said it was very disappointed in the approach taken by the tribunal.

Maya Forstater, the organisation’s CEO, said it should have provided employers with clarity regarding single-sex spaces and that should have meant giving them the confidence to refuse to let trans women use those spaces. She added: “It is a travesty that a woman can be judged as having expressed herself in the wrong way when she objects to finding a man in the women’s changing room.”

Ms Forstater said there was an “urgent” need for the Health and Safety Executive to provide clear guidance to employers regarding workplace toilets and changing rooms.

However, discrimination lawyer Robin Moira White – who works with Translucent, a trans-led advocacy and human rights organisation – said the ruling was a “very sensible, balanced judgement”. She said the tribunal had found that Sandie Peggie had harassed Dr Upton, not the other way around.

Oh look, there’s the BBC failing to say that Robin Moira White is a man who pretends to be a woman, and in fact calling her “she” which means that anybody who doesn’t know Robin Moira White is a man will get a very distorted view of the matter.

Ms White added: “It recognised that both trans people and gender critical people have rights in the workplace and employers have to balance those.”

Oh fuck off, dude. No employers don’t have to “balance” women’s right not to change clothes with men in the room and men’s right to watch women changing clothes. Just fuck all the way off.
