They mention that Allison Bailey is a “lesbian barrister.”

Can they specify each time they mention Susie Green and Mermaids that she is a straight woman and that it is an org run by a straight woman? I can’t wait til they start scrutinizing her Ted Talk and call out that she is married to a man that she admits is homophobic?

Finally we are left with Gendered Intelligence UK. They are more mysterious. I can’t even find out who is leading them even after reviewing their website. But they describe themselves as “trans-led.”

I’d be more than fine with articles saying straight, and trans-led to describe these orgs and their leadership. It proves the exact point LGB Alliance is trying to make. They should call that out now that they’re getting mainstream press.
