Just to point out what scrapping would mean


The Human Rights Act is a UK law passed in 1998. It lets you defend your rights in UK courts and compels public organisations – including the Government, police and local councils – to treat everyone equally, with fairness, dignity and respect.


So that is OK to get rid of????

Does everyone get treated fairly under the HRA?...

Some people choose to change lots of things though. Plastic surgery, hair transplants, nose jobs. I don’t care if someone wants to call themselves Terri when they used to be Terry but I can’t buy the “messing with biology” argument.

Agree but at the beginning you are a boy or a girl unless there were problems in pregnancy.
Maybe I should identify myself a female cat and get a cheap season ticket?

In the beginning 99.9% of us are a boy or girl. Innovation means that can be changed for the very small number of people who feel they’re born into the wrong body. Doesn’t have to be a big deal IMO.

I agree it shouldn’t be a big deal but many keep pushing it into the faces of others. As you say, it’s a small number.

The big deal is when biological men call themselves a woman and expect to be allowed into women and girls' changing rooms and toilets.
