Anti-trans activism
Martin stated on the advisor profile on Sex Matters:
“The ideological subversion of biological sex by gender, with wilful disregard for all of the law, facts, science and the rights and safety of women and vulnerable young people – zealously policed in a culture of ‘no debate’ – is possibly the most totalitarian thing I have experienced in my lifetime. It has resulted in too many of our institutions pursuing a policy of blind adoption, without consideration of consequences. We need to talk. And Sex Matters is a voice of sanity questioning the emperor’s new clothes.”
