Many cis women don’t want a possible ban of trans women from single-sex spaces, and fear wider consequences of judging on appearance

Solidarity with trans women

Many cis women are supportive of trans people and don’t want them to be excluded.

Not In Our Name is a cis female led trans-rights group. They describe themselves as a “collective of women who reject the weaponisation of our identities to justify discrimination. We want the media, government and other bodies to focus on the real threats that prevent women from thriving.”

Over 103,000 cis women have signed their petition that calls on “the media and politicians to recognise that there is a large number of women who are supportive of the trans+ community”___

Sadly the government has decided to hurt all women in pushing for these new hate rules.
