I really like the way you put this - that it’s about male patterns of behaviour and protecting women from them, men, no matter how they identify. Trans activists make it all about “transphobia” thereby detouring focus away from the true male/female friction and the debate gets very confused and messy. Which is what they want!

There's no such thing as "trans."

It doesn't exist.

Love you Julie. You’ll always have a 6’6” gay male (me!) as your back up dancer/bouncer/cheerleader/hopeless fan.

Julie, I am shocked to hear that mixed gender wards even existed. That those wards are returning in this form doubles my fear of being seriously ill. Thank you for bringing this situation to the attention of women.

No they did include trans women (men) in “single sex”wards but that has been stopped now. Julie was reposting a piece she wrote 3 years ago when the original insanity was implemented.

I'll forever be angry about this incident. I'm also a nurse who has come across obstacles for reporting inappropriate male behavior. Mostly, because every time a man does something inappropriate to women, it's the woman that is the problem. Even the woman who is supposed to advocate for their patients and a mandatory reporter for abuse.

I am a nurse in a foreign nation, but I grew up in the UK. My mother who now has dementia lives in the UK, and I thank you and everyone else who campaigned for this change to the NHS, which should have been common sense.

Will the police now follow suit and change their policy that biological males (trans women) can strip search and intimately search women taken into custody.

Wow. Seriously? I guess this is a simple method to molest women for police.

This is the collision of an ideology with sex based reality. Women are always the collateral damage.

Correct. There is no such thing as "trans."

There's nothing to identify with. They're just men.

Men are not women, and they never will be. They don't belong in women's spaces. End of story.

I'm Australian and trained as a nurse here. Australia has had women only and men only wards for a very long time. During the 7 years I lived in England I ended up in hospital (1976) and was rather shocked to find myself in a mixed ward of about 30 patients. I never felt safe sleeping in a ward with strange men.

Thanks Julie for all you have done to fight the gender nonsense and reclaim women's rights.

Such a clear and powerful piece about human dignity and evidence as clear as your nose. It’s beyond comprehension that a right you fought so hard for was unravelled so fast and with the complicity of so many

I agree with everything you say, Julie. It’s common sense, which seems to be lacking in so many spheres of life nowadays. I know this is minor, Julie, but please have someone edit your posts for grammar, please. There are so many of typos or grammatical errors in your article, sadly.

So many of typos?

At least she said „please“ twice. 😉

Indeed, there are none at all (and I'm a professor who grades student essays all the time).

I didn't notice any. They must have been very minor because they in no way damaged Julie's great writing skills.

if you are a trans woman there are a few things that you need to understand. First of all is that you are still a man because you can't change your biological sex. It's okay to dress any way you wish and to adopt any superficial, stereotypical attributes of women that you desire. Live your life. No one should care, I certainly don't. However, because women are entitled to be treated fairly and to enjoy privacy from men there are certain things that are prohibited to you and me because we are men. You can't compete against women in most sports because it would be unfair. You can't go into women's private places like restrooms and locker rooms because that would make them feel unsafe. Finally, if you are a criminal you certainly can't be imprisoned with women.

That's it, just like me.

Oh, and hospital wards.
