Scotland appears likely to pass controversial gender reforms which would make it easier for transgender people to change their recorded gender.
The Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill will remove the need for a medical diagnosis of gender dysphoria in order to receive a gender recognition certificate (GRC).
It would also lower the minimum age for applicants to 16 and reduce the time required for an applicant to live in their acquired gender from two years to three months (or six for people aged 16 and 17) - though there will be a three-month reflection period.
MSPs will consider the last of the 153 amendments lodged at stage three of the bill after a marathon session of parliament yesterday, before a final vote this afternoon.
How long before Drakeford and the Senedd folow suit ?
Downright creepy man-child adults corrupting the minds of youngsters in the name of WOKE and virtue signalling!
Quote: "The Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill will remove the need for a medical diagnosis of gender dysphoria in order to receive a gender recognition certificate (GRC)."
Aye just throw away medical science/ethics into the bonfire, along with common sense and morals and its full steam ahead with a "anything goes" approach towards naive and mixed-up impressionable kids....What a masterplan to mess with young minds hey!
And then there was Doctor Who production team members on a mission .... Quote: "The Jodie Whittaker era has already explored LGBTQ+ themes, including time travel assistant Yaz having a crush on The Doctor - which will be revisited in a new TV special.".
What decent grown-up adult would seriously want to explore LGBTQ+ themes with pre-pubescent kids! If someone tried to explore that with kids at school gates it would end up with some extremely angry mothers and probably a call to the police.

Then you will get people In Scotland who change their sexual recognition crossing the border and having to revert back to their original sexual state . Heavens knows what happens.when they travel abroad. Will a Scottish male who registers as female be regarded as male or female in the caravan world?
It's called pantomime , a vast difference .so don't try to equate them , drag queens belong in the adult world not in the head of a child , would you agree ?

I think you will find that your average Xmas pantomime performance of Aladdin etc will not have scenes that are shown in the video, neither will there be a sign of "It's not gonna lick itself" in the background!

No I wouldn't, unless sexualisation comes in to it.
It's a man playing the part of a woman, usually for comedic value.
What I let my child watch a drag show in a gay club at 1am on the weekend? No. But I have no problem with them going to see the drag race in Swansea arena.

The fact that you obviously support this type of behaviour does raise serious questions about the way some adults think and what direction society is heading? Like I said whatever floats your boat and what you perceive is a moral way to act in front of children. I think you will find that the majority find it disgusting!

Strange that the human race until recently has managed in its bumbling way to maintain social cohesion and a sense of decency and proprietary only now to find that decades of bringing up children has been so wrong . Its seems to me that sexualising children (who have no say in what their parents present them with ) is the new norm . You do have to question why is there a need to accept that the norm nowadays is not normal behaviour for the majority .

It's a discussion on a very controversial topic, why do you think it belongs in the dark ages.
Would your wife daughter mind sharing a toilet with a woman, that 3 months ago was a man. Do you think it fair that a woman athlete competes against a man that now identifies as a woman. Is it ok for a male sex offender to identify as a woman.
If a male prisoner chooses to identify as a woman, should he/she be moved to a woman's prison men' or women's ? etc . You are welcome to give an opinion if you wish, if you don't, then feel free to scroll onto something of more interest to you.
I for one think the issues you raise and others should be discussed. For example where do men who change identity to a woman change at the swimming pool? Bearing in mind my 15 year old niece and her friend are regular pool swimmers?
I do have an opinion and it is live and let live, this topic has been taken to the dark ages by the usual crew of easily to upset brigade, you look at the topics heading and you know who is going to post spouting their angst.
To answer your questions , i'm not bothered about prisoners male or female identifying as the opposite as I or any of my family are in prison, its upto the powers that be to sort it.
Sport, that's different, I believe if you were born a man you shouldn't be allowed to compete as a female, even after the change and hormonal treatment as they would obviously have an advantage, different for a woman competing as a man as they are on a loser from the start.
It wouldn't bother me in the slightest if a woman identifying as a man went into the same toilets as my boys or vice versa for my wife, as they always use the cubicles, you do know there are first world countries who have unisex toilets don't you?
Isnt that good debate flash 😉

"this type of behaviour" is nothing to do with the Scottish gender recognition Bill.
Drag is not gender dysphoria.
I do wonder if any contributors to this thread who seem to be confusing, gender dysphoria with drag and sexualisation have actually met a transgender person?

That's the point I make, more questions than answers I'm afraid, will the gender recognition certificate be valid in England if this goes through, it will almost certainly be valid in Wales, just as soon as Sturgeon has a quiet word in Mr Drakeford's ear.
The SNP is trying to push this legislation through, by blocking a lot of amendments against the bill.
Anyone that speaks against the bill, gets the usual treatment by being called "Bigots"
