A transgender woman who was convicted of rape in 1998 when she was a man was today jailed for nine years for stabbing another trans woman in the home they shared.

Zara Jade, 54, slashed her victim in the arm and abdomen while she sat on her knee. She then used the leggings to strap her ankles, knees, chest and arms to the electrically powered chair before tilting her back and switching off the power.

Bradford Crown Court heard how her victim remained fixed in place for a few hours at their shared flat in Halifax while Jade used her card to withdraw £300 before later untying her.

Jade pleaded guilty to wounding with intent to do grievous bodily harm, robbery, fraud and false imprisonment.

He’s still a man. Why are the press pandering to this fucking nonsense?

Assuming that the press isn't onboard with the nonsense? Probably to avoid getting bent over in court for hate speech or something like that.

Yeah, it is remarkable how a conservative paper like the Daily Mail goes along with this shit though.

The Wokeness Pascal's Wager:

Pander to the Woke, and those who are woke will be happy, and those who aren't woke have better things to do than get mad so they'll let it happen.

Do not pander to the woke, those who aren't woke have better things to do and won't care, but the woke will scream so loud that the whole world hears them. They are angry, they have a Harry Potter complex, and they're terminally online, and they will make it their personal mission in life to ruin your life for not pandering to them. They'll call your boss, your boss's boss, THEIR boss's boss, and go up the ladder until they hear a board of directors member who says "shut up shut up don't care don't care OH MY GOD I DON'T CARE fire whatever peasant they're mad about before their whining affects the stock prices."

OfCom don’t regulate print media though, just radio and TV.

tbf even The Sun went to court to defend the radfems' principle of "it doesn't matter what the facts are, a woman simply can't beat a man (because we carefully redefined 'beating' to be an act exclusively committed by wicked penismonsters)"

Hell even saying "when she was a man" is transphobic in purist circles, since 'she' is supposed to have always been a woman.
