17-year-old Beth Knight was at a London train station when she was approached by a man. She didn't know at the time, but she was being secretly filmed on his Meta glasses. She tells Channel 4 News she was "terrified" and didn't know how the interaction would end. Billed as the latest high-tech must have, there's growing backlash against Meta's smart glasses amid evidence some users are secretly filming women without their knowledge or consent.

'I will never be safe in a man's toilet', says Isabella who is a trans woman. Thousands of single-sex spaces in the UK, like changing rooms and toilets, should be used based on biological sex, according to new guidelines that come into place today from the Equalities and Human Rights Commission. The guidance says trans people should instead be offered a separate mixed-sex space. It follows a Supreme Court ruling last year that the definition of sex for the purposes of the Equality Act means biological sex - the sex of a person at birth, not the gender you identify with. While gender critical organisations welcome clarification on the law', many in the trans community and LGBTQ+ organisations feel the guidelines leave them more open to discrimination. #Trans #LGBTQ #Toilet #ChangingRoom #C4News #Channel4News
