A Conservative MP has reiterated the importance of biological sex and warned how the push for self-ID harms women. Writing in The Times, Jackie Doyle-Price said the current prevalence of Stonewall’s transgender ideology in women’s prisons, health and sports means institutions are failing to properly apply the Equality Act. She added that “most women in prison are extremely vulnerable so the last thing they need is to be forced to share accommodation with male sex offenders”. On women’s sport, the Thurrock MP argued: “It is an unarguable fact that male and female physiology is somewhat different. Males who have gone through puberty have more muscular strength than women, which is why women have their own sports categories.
