Women hit back over proposals to make it easier for people to change gender
By Mark Wood and Joani Walsh, MailOnline.
First transgender activists made a splash when men identifying as female invaded the women-only pond on Hampstead Heath.
Now feminists have hit back by attending a men-only swimming session in protest over proposals that would make it easier for people to change gender.
Amy Desir, 30 – one of two women to gain access to the South London pool last Friday – caused particular consternation by wearing just trunks and a pink swimming cap.
Another woman, who would only give her name as Hannah because she is afraid of reprisals from trans activists, told staff at Dulwich Leisure Centre that they had every right to join the session because they ‘identified as male’.
Both women used the male changing rooms before joining around 20 men in the 25-metre pool. Ms Desir, a mother of two from Luton, said: ‘We are doing it to highlight the ridiculous and dangerous move towards self-identification.
