terf-island continues its descent into insanity & cruelty if i lived there, & if my passability was a bit less moot, i would ignore this shitfuckery & continue using women's' facilities not all transwomen pass, but many do. expectations that these women are going to publicly out themselves by walking into male dunnies et al are as risible as they are dangerous https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/single-sex-spaces-laws-toilets-trans-rights-supreme-court-b302726...
