lIf you do anything today, watch Maeve Halligan at the Cambridge Union. I genuinely think this was the first time many people in that room were confronted with the hard reality of the trans debate, rather than the slogans that usually surround it. Buck Angel Transsexual was exceptional: calm, articulate, humane. Ultimate respect. And then there was Helen Webberley. I remember once thinking the criticism directed at her by GC women was excessive, especially the claim she was ‘pure evil’. After hearing her speak, I no longer think that. She is totally insincere. I can deal with hard ideologues- they believe they are telling the truth; they are genuine, Dr Helen Webberley (she/her) is different. One audience member, a trans-identified male and former patient of hers, stood to speak during points of information. His account of how he had been treated was deeply disturbing. Watch the full debate. It is worth your time.

Maeve Halligan at the Cambridge Union. Maeve is one of the bravest people I know. The amount The Cambridge University Society of Women has gone through simply to exist, organise, and speak openly is unreal. At the beginning of this year, I could barely exist in Cambridge normally. I was too scared to go into the city centre alone, eat in my dining hall, go to lectures, the gym, anything. I am now almost completely immune to it. A huge part of that is down to Maeve’s strength. To watch her tonight was huge.
