When I came out as a lesbian in the 1970s it was pretty tough. The misogyny was off the scale, and men would shout at us about how all we needed was a good f**k. Police were rarely sympathetic when we were victims of bigotry and abuse. Thank god those days are over. Oh, wait....

Tell you what does though: being a woman standing up for our sex-based rights that feminists fought for because of male violence, to then loose our jobs when we speak the truth about who is male and who is female.
