The Equality Act has a number of flaws, but I have a soft spot for a part of it. After the evening where it first actually occurred to me I could be trans, I found myself musing that having “proposed to undergo a process […] for the purposes of reassigning […] sex” I had acquired the protected characteristic of gender reassignment. It didn’t change anything practically but the way that was worded made me feel a little bit seen by whoever drafted the 2010 Act. A tiny legislative hug.
@ajlanes I think @goatsarah might have been involved in that... it was certainly one of the points we raised during drafting.
@diffrentcolours [tech.lgbt] @ajlanes I was not involved in that.
