Belief Matters … Or Not? Why the gender binary idol is unworthy of worship
One of the main positives to emerge from the Scottish parliamentary election campaign so far has been a broad consensus from the main parties on issues of LGBT+ equality.
This was highlighted last week at an LGBTI hustings in Edinburgh, hosted by Stonewall Scotland, the Equality Network and the Scottish Transgender Alliance. In some respects this was inevitable and unsurprising, but what was notable was the agreement on gender identity legislation. It’s only relatively recently that political parties have begun to seriously address questions surrounding gender identity, but already it feels like significant progress is being made.
