  Good. “Gender critical” is just a term sexist and transphobic people used when they’re too ashamed of themselves to be honest about their opinons.

  "Because of my views - and they’re lawfully held views - they are missing out on this opportunity, and that’s the part that is absolutely galling. 

  And it’s also a lawfully held view for scope to think she’s so terrible that they want nothing to do with her.

  Fucking coward. If your only justification for your views is that it’s “lawfully held” you need to admit to yourself that you’re a bad person.

  Sorry, but punishing an entire choir because of the wrongthink of one person is stupid. Not only that, but all the reporting of this is just going to give her a massive amount of publicity, I’d certainly never heard of this lady before.
