What, then, is causing all the controversy? To put it simply, neither side in the argument seems to understand the law – with both making assumptions that are not true. The anti-Trans movement mistakenly thinks Trans-ism has been outlawed – whilst the pro-Trans lobby believes something tangible has been taken away from them. The truth is that the pro-Trans lobby never achieved a change in the law as it stands. What the pro-Trans lobby achieved was a voluntary alteration of the reading of the current law – so that its limitations were interpreted throughout society in a certain (flexible) manner. There may have been an “approximation” of parity between the existing law – and the intended changes the Trans movement wished to make (this may be interpreted as a “high water-mark” in the Trans anti-capitalist offensive).
