    One for you to discuss...

    My son is just finishing off his final year at Uni and has started applying for jobs. He has been advised to put bi-sexual down as his sexual orientation on his job applications by his careers advisor, even though he's 100% straight, as statistically he'll have a higher chance of getting an interview! Crazy

    Not sure that’s true. Companies use these things for their own internal statistics but it won’t impact the hiring process at a serious company with a proper HR dept. Our system redacts the CV info so you can only see experience rather than age, gender etc.

    Maybe he just likes an occasional cock.

    It's the world we live in, where minorities come first. It'll get worse under Labour. Yesterday, a private member's bill on women and girls' safe spaces, was filibustered out of time by woke, pro trans MP's who took great delight and humour discussing ferrets

    He's occasionally a cock, but who wasn't when they were 21

    I'd remove that last sentence, which may be offensive to a young, straight guy

    It probably is an age thing, agreed. I couldn't have accused my mates of that in the 1970's...unless they were Bowie fans

    J.K. Rowling today -

    In passing the Scottish Hate Crime Act, Scottish lawmakers seem to have placed higher value on the feelings of men performing their idea of femaleness, however misogynistically or opportunistically, than on the rights and freedoms of actual women and girls. The new legislation is wide open to abuse by activists who wish to silence those of us speaking out about the dangers of eliminating women's and girls’ single-sex spaces, the nonsense made of crime data if violent and sexual assaults committed by men are recorded as female crimes, the grotesque unfairness of allowing males to compete in female sports, the injustice of women’s jobs, honours and opportunities being taken by trans-identified men, and the reality and immutability of biological sex.

    For several years now, Scottish women have been pressured by their government and members of the police force to deny the evidence of their eyes and ears, repudiate biological facts and embrace a neo-religious concept of gender that is unprovable and untestable. The re-definition of 'woman' to include every man who declares himself one has already had serious consequences for women's and girls’ rights and safety in Scotland, with the strongest impact felt, as ever, by the most vulnerable, including female prisoners and rape survivors.

    It is impossible to accurately describe or tackle the reality of violence and sexual violence committed against women and girls, or address the current assault on women’s and girls’ rights, unless we are allowed to call a man a man. Freedom of speech and belief are at an end in Scotland if the accurate description of biological sex is deemed criminal.

    I'm currently out of the country, but if what I've written here qualifies as an offence under the terms of the new act, I look forward to being arrested when I return to the birthplace of the Scottish Enlightenment. If you agree with the views set out in this tweet, please retweet it. #ArrestMe#AprilFools#HateCrimeActScotland
