If I'm wrong, I'd need proof :)

It's considered a hate crime now at least in Britain.

A 38-year-old British mother was arrested in front of her children and locked up for seven hours after referring to a transgender woman as a man online.

The case is the latest where police have been accused of being heavy-handed in dealing with people who go online to debate gender issues.

misgendering’? One British journalist is about to find out

Here we go again. Another woman in Britain is facing a police investigation – and potentially, a jail sentence – because she wrote things online about sex, gender and a person who changed gender.

Teacher accused of 'misgendering' child was told by police that she committed a hate crime.

Didn't lead to jail time that I'm aware of, but another instance in a school.


Joshua Sutcliffe, from Oxford, says he was investigated after he said "well done girls" to a group that included a student who identifies as a boy.

The 27-year-old Christian pastor is now suing the school for constructive dismissal and discrimination.
