Well, I think that any able bodied man who identifies as a disabled woman deserves some sympathy. (But not ridicule.)
Presumably the internal tension of living with gender dysphoria has had unusual (but probably quite genuine to the sufferer) side effects.
So the UN is now transphobic too... Or maybe there are legitimate concerns being steamrolled over.
Emma Corrin calls for major film awards to become gender neutral.

Won't that just mean that women will win less awards? Or will we then get hashtags of OscarsSoMale so that they have to just award women/ TG people just to shut them up?
Corrin should just be told to shut up, because gender-neutral awards would indeed lead to men winning the majority of them. I saw her on Graham Norton a few weeks back and I can't recall when I last saw someone so full-of-herself irritating. Her last film is tanking, and if her next (in which she plays Lady Chatterley - and where's the uproar about that?) does, then '... from The Crown' will do as much for her career as '... from Game of Thrones' is doing for Sophie Turner's.
Corrin should just be told to shut up........
Not sure that's the best way to counter her reasoning. Perhaps any award could require 50% male and 50% female nominations. They could double the amount of awards, give them slightly different names, they seem to have loads already!
Seeing as I find myself agreeing with everything that James O'Brien has to say, I was wondering what he thought about trans issues.
I could only find this 1 show (although he does reference others) from last year, but it's a very good listen. And again, I agree with all of his points ...
I was about to type that, after skimming through that pet thread, I couldn't tell if the OP was having a laugh. Took me a while, but I got there.
