I'm trying to wrap my head around this... So if a transwoman tricks/rapes a straight male, it's "transphobia" to be mad about it or beat the shit out of your male rapist. But if a wannabe transman tricks/rapes a straight female, then it's "legitimate" rape because the victim was a female? Or is it "legitimate" rape only because it was a minor?

It's fucked up either way, but the cognitive dissonance to only think a tranny raping you is bad when it's a female being raped by a transman, seriously makes me hate this species even more, cause that's what's possibly being implied here. If the genders were reversed and this was a 16 year old boy who got raped by a 21 year old wannabe-transwoman, then I guarantee you Reddit would be calling the teen victim "transphobic" all day long.

The offender in this case is not trans in any way.

She simply pretended to be a man because the subject of her lesbian affection wasn’t lesbian and it was the only way she could get her into bed.

The way rape law is written means that women can never be charged with rape because it requires that the offender have a penis.

However, this woman has been charged with multiple counts of sexual assault and multiple counts of assault by penetration, which I believe are the most serious non-paedophile sexual offence charges that can be laid against a woman - the complainant is 19 and was above the age of 16 when the offences allegedly occurred. 18 is the age of unrestricted consent in the UK, but 16 year olds can consent to sex when there is no relationship of trust between the two individuals (not a teacher/police officer etc).

I think that the sexual offences act needs to be updated to equalise the charges by sex, so women can be charged with rape, but that doesn’t seem likely.

Damn.

Besides the lack of free speech, getting arrested for making jokes, "Hate Speech" laws being an actual thing, and having literal murderers go unpunished because it's "racist" to prosecute them, this seems to be yet ANOTHER example of why The UK is the biggest shithole in the world and makes America look like utopia by comparison. Even with Biden, the US ain't THIS bad...

Hope they fix those shitty laws soon.
