No one is “assigned” a sex at birth. That is made-up gender ideology nonsense. And the phrase “now identifies as a woman, an example of a process known as detransitioning” makes the defendant sound like she was returning a pair of shoes that didn’t fit.
Sex being assigned at birth is just a thing that happens. Sometimes doctors get someone’s biological sex wrong, especially with intersex people. The latter part doesn’t make any sense.
“gender-related surgical treatments” would be more accurately written, “unproven, experimental amputations of healthy body parts”.
Translation: “You didn’t encode transphobia into your very language so you’re captured by the trans!”
Wow. You would think that “biological sex” is a new, controversial concept, and yet the Times is compelled to define it with the “sex assigned at birth” nonsense.
See the first bit.
If the suspect was “biologically born male”, then the suspect is a man and should be referred to as such. Overwhelmingly, violence of this sort is carried out by men. The Times is lying and insulting all women when they write such fiction.
This bit is just them trying to create a false connection between being bigoted against women and NOT being bigoted against trans people. Disgusting.
