This was my summary in 2020.

2/2

If toiling in the Conversion Practices Criminalisation Bill resistance you may wish to refer to entries in Rin's Dictionary of Gender Identities, all of which the Bill would make as equally normal and valid as woman and man. [I expect more have been added since this 2022 ed.] 1/2

Once you submit evidence to the House of Lords Select Committee for the Draft Conversion Practices Bill you get a request to complete a diversity monitoring survey. This question seems to exemplify how slippery is the concept of 'trans'. ("Wear different clothes" 🤣)

Passing the Conversion Practices Bill would force sane people to accept this woman’s gender identity (whatever she thinks it is) as completely normal, or risk five years in prison. #bookmycellnow

Is every form of sexual orientation and gender identity to be normalised, or is it just L,G,B, T and GD which are to be embraced in the 'desirable norm' while others remain outside. Aren't L, G and B within the desirable norm (in the UK) already?

We also have laws dealing with severe mental distress.

I’m not sure why this should have become an issue.
