It’s utter madness, and the U.K. will likely follow- councils will do their own things and Central govt will follow when Labour get in or Liz Truss is not longer women and equalise minister.

I’ve heard fellow biologists say sex is a spectrum and I just wish you could lose your degree in the same way doctors have been struck off when you clearly ignore your supposed subject of expertise.

You’re right about ‘biological appropriation’- it’s exactly that. I only call it ‘cultural appropriation’ as that’s a trigger word and imo more likely to wake the wokes up. But ‘biological’ is more accurate. ‘Cultural’ also implies the gender stereotypes we fight so hard against are out culture, which is pure rubbish.

I hope that the backlash in the UK has been strong enough that gender ideology has been shut down.

Biologist who say sex is a spectrum do need to be struck off. I have a close friend, a WOKE, 40ish, male, who had a very long learning curve on gender ideology, throw back at me that biologists are saying sex is a spectrum, so why should he believe me, a non-biologist?

Then I had to go down the path of trying to explain to him that the gender lobby has been working behind the scenes since the 1990s laying the groundwork for the madness of today by literally bribing politicians, media outlets, universities, medical schools, etc., to push gender ideology.

It sounded, even to me, outrageous - like I was pushing QAnon. But it's the truth - the gender lobby has been playing the long game for decades and we are only now waking up, but it might be too late.
