The United Nations Calling Out Transphobia and the Gender-Critical Movement in the UK
Transgender Facts
1/ Introduction
The history of gender-diverse people goes back over 2000 years.
Being transgender is not a choice – it’s a matter of survival and transition is one of the most difficult journeys in humanity.
In England and Wales one in every one hundred and sixty people identifies as trans, non-binary or gender diverse. In total there are 48,000 trans men and 48,000 trans women.

2/ Culture War
The far-right "culture war" waged by some Conservatives in the UK targets trans women.
Predominantly based in the US but with offices in the UK, global trans-hostile 'gender critical' hate groups along with the well-funded evangelical far-right aim to eliminate trans people from participating in everyday society.
Transgender Facts
3/ Hate
In the UK, trans-hostile articles from the right-wing press have risen 12,700%
in the last decade - Currently, this equates to around 18 articles per day.
In England and Wales, trans hate crime has risen by over 1513% in the last decade.
On average, 364 hate crimes are reported every month, invariably by trans women.
Transgender Facts
4/ De-Transition
Evidence indicates only 2% of those who transition later regret their decision -
they are almost exclusively assigned female at birth.
One of the lowest ‘regret’ rates of ANY medical intervention.
Transgender Facts
5/ Children
While the number of children identifying as trans is increasing,
only one child in a thousand is registered at the Tavistock Gender Clinic.
In the UK, ONLY adults aged over eighteen can have gender-affirming surgery.
Transgender Facts
6/ Health
Trans people are around seven times more likely to take their own life than cisgender people - this is often because the average waiting time to see a gender specialist on the NHS is well over ten years.
Transgender Facts
7/ Sport
There is only one trans woman athlete in the UK at the elite level.
Despite complying with testosterone suppression regulations as per international requirements,
she has been banned from competing with females.
Because of her testosterone suppression she is unable to compete in meaningful
competition in the so called “open” category.
Transgender Facts
8/ Sport
Trans people have been able to participate in the Olympic Games since 2004.
Since that time, over 70,000 cisgender people have reached the finals, while
only one trans woman has.
She finished last.
