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.

Amazing. I am very much against that development and now feel a bit bad about my stance.

Amongst further research (your sources are biased outlets) the journalist case is not that clear-cut and might really be about other things... which doesn't take away from my bewilderment that police actually arrested people for misgendering.
