I'm a bit confused from the news reports. I thought it was Aimee's father that was the pedophile? If that's the case, as I think it is, I don't see the issue. Trans or not what crime's someone's parent/s commit has no bearing on what their children should be allowed to do. I don't care what someone's parent/sibling/aunt/etc did, I care what they do. As long as Aimee was not involved with or aware of her father's crimes, there shouldn't be an issue (which is pretty common, many pedophiles and murderer's have families who have no idea what their husband/father is doing).

From what I read, the issue is that Aimee Challenor appointed her father as her election agent, and failed to inform the party of her father's crimes. So yeah, I think Aimee is in the wrong here. But her being trans doesn't having any bearing in this matter from what I can see.

Ahh. Yeah, if she knew what her father did and appointed him w/o informing, then yeah. She's in the wrong.
