But That's Exactly What He Is...

A trans woman has won a legal case after an employment tribunal has suggested that calling her a 'w***er' was discrimination because it is an insult commonly used in reference to men.

It's all he'll ever really be...no amount of surgery and legislation will ever change that.

The swear word is not 'gender-neutral' and so using it against someone who has transitioned would constitute a breach of equality laws, a panel surmised.

If it's not 'gender neutral' then it's being used correctly, in his case. These are the sorts of ridiculous knots you tie yourself in when you deny biological reality. 

The tribunal - heard in Croydon, south London - heard that Miss Fischer began working for London United Busways at their Hounslow bus yard in 2020 until her contract was terminated on January 15 2021. She said she was called a 'w***er' by another driver on January 13, 2021, and that the company was 'male-dominated'.

Well, certainly can't argue with that point, but not for the same reasons! 

However, the panel found that she wasn't discriminated against for being a trans woman after concluding the 'w***er' comment hadn't been made and dismissing her complaint about the near miss.

What a waste of time! And if I had a 'comment of the month' it would go to PJF at Tim's column for this:

Superb!
