Yeah, theres no legal difference between the two, because you dont need surgery to get... to self—identify in a particular way, or even to get a gender recognition certificate in this country. but im saying that theres a practical difference, because... so, you asked me what the problems were, and there are a range of problems — but if we focus on spaces where women get undressed, are vulnerable to sexual assault, and sexual assault by males is a problem for women in those spaces, somebody w...

Ive got a flat, ive got a girlfriend, two cats and a family. the couple, who are both 24, support reform of scotlands gender recognition act to make it less intrusive. you need to have so much evidence, its really invasive and it puts you in a position of being mentally and physically exhausted with having to do it. but zac feels its important to be sure. i definitely support it. i think people who are younger, they need to explore themselves. they need to get to know themselves. like, i didnt e...

Ias they willjust stand up and say, i "oh, but i self—identify as a woman, i am allowed to be in this space." but some scottish womens advocacy groups highlight that trans women already access services like rape and domestic violence support. we have no concerns about the proposed reforms. we know that trans women access womens services anyway. we do not believe there are any proposed changes in the bill that will impact on single sex spaces, which already operate on a basis of self—id. the ...

I think people who are younger, they need to explore themselves. they need to get to know themselves. like, i didnt even know whatjob i wanted to do when i was 16. some people might not even know that, let alone what gender they want to sit in for the rest of their life. in a poll commissioned by the bbc, more than half of those questioned were in favour of making it easier to get a gender recognition certificate. a fifth opposed it. but on some of the specific proposals, opinion was more finely...

Single—sex spaces, such as changing rooms. 35% said they should be able to do so only if theyd legally changed sex and had gender reassignment surgery. 28% said this should be allowed even if they had not had surgery. for some people, this is a fundamental and polarising issue, with protests on both sides. we believe these proposals to bring in self—identification will mean - that we will not be able to confront any male that is in _ within our changing rooms. we might actually be breaking t...

Smile, but can only hold it up for so long. you see a little bit of sadness, maybe that they would be first. will, pete, rachel, sending it back down to you in daytona. rachel: thank you, carley. will: no, maybe they would be first. they would be winning these races but for a male who chose to swim in a female competition. to put it into context how big affairs it is before we move on, i did a segment yesterday, i dont know if you guys were listening. >> i heard it. will: the fact the second swi...

2018 and 2020 is the incredible democratic upswing in voter participation because donald trump energizes the democratic base. any time youre talking about a biden-trump matchup it is hard not to go back to the numbers and the way in which so many see donald trump is dangerous for the democracy, dangerous on race, dangerous on justice, dangerous on the things frankly that so many democratic voters go to the polls to vote on. the issue that the president needs to confront is energizing that base. ...
