Anti-trans activism

“As a woman working in a very male-dominated environment I have always been aware of the huge differences and disparities between men and women. Throughout my career I have advocated for equality, equity and diversity in the workplace. As a gay woman I am concerned about the importance of preserving the definition of same-sex attraction. As a keen sportswoman I am passionate about protecting women’s sport.”
