Socialist feminism revolts against Irene Montero's 'trans' law

• Courts The CGPJ unanimously approves the report critical of Irene Montero's Trans Law

• Draft Law An official will change the gender of the minor who requests it with the new Trans Law

The report of the General Council of the Judiciary on the preliminary draft of the Trans law has breathed new life into the criticism and denunciation of the classic feminist movement historically rooted in the PSOE and cornered by Pedro Sánchez in favor of proposals for free self-determination of sexual identity championed by United We Can, its minority partner in the Government.

The feminist organizations grouped in the

warn that the draft of the Minister of Equality, Irene Montero, which must still be submitted to the mandatory but non-binding scrutiny of the

, is discriminatory, opens wide It opens the door to law fraud in matters such as violence against women, parity and sports and poses a serious risk to minors.

And they point out: "This is not a trans rights law, because transsexuals already have their rights recognized like everyone else."

The Alliance demands the withdrawal of the draft, or at least its in-depth reform following the guidelines of the CGPJ and after an exhaustive debate among experts, and assumes that, in the event that the Government turns a deaf ear and continues with its text, will be appealed to the Constitutional Court by the opposition parties.

Alliance spokespersons stress that the classic feminist movement would not hesitate to take this step if it could.

In any case, they predict, if the rule goes ahead in its current terms, a rosary of lawsuits every time there is the slightest stumble related to minors or statistical records.

And they anticipate that they will not hesitate to question the educational protocols that they face as cases of dysphoria a huge range of recurrent problems in preadolescents.

The

works mainly in this field and has already registered more than 130 cases.

Prepare a report analyzing the profiles of the boys who present problems of all kinds and who are referred to this type of protocol.

They consider affirmative therapies that supply hormone blockers 'crazy'

They emphasize, like the CGPJ, the ruling of the Constitutional Court that only allows the change of sex in the registry at age 16 and always with diagnosis, persistence and parental consent.

They emphasize that it is not acceptable that minors can do so without justification.

"A minor cannot self-medicate," warns

, a referent of socialist feminism, for whom "gender malaise" in adolescence does not have to be transsexual.

The draft bill speaks of providing affirmative therapies in these cases that involve administering hormone blockers.

A "madness" for the Alliance that recalls that conversion therapies have already begun to withdraw in the Nordic countries and in France.

And they point out the contradiction that the law imposes more administrative conditions to detransition than to transition.

law fraud

They also denounce that the project contradicts the Equality Law that starts from the approach of disaggregation by sex.

They explain the case that occurred in 2018 in the Mexican state of

when 17 men appeared on the electoral lists as women.

It was the trans group itself that denounced him and the authorities had to back down the candidacies.

They also emphasize the problems of law fraud that can occur in cases of gender violence.

A man who has committed an act of sexist violence must be judged based on the law of gender violence even if he has changed to a woman.

It is about preventing abusers from making spurious use of the law.

From the Alliance against the Erasure of Women they reproach Pedro Sánchez for not attending to any of their demands and for having imposed the law of silence among the feminists of the PSOE who hold positions.

In spite of everything, they assure that they are not going to shut them up.

Socialist feminism is still waiting to receive a response from the President of the Government to the letter they sent him a year ago explaining his position regarding gender self-determination laws.

The document was signed by José Luis Ábalos, then Minister and Secretary of Organization;

Carmen Calvo, Vice President and Secretary for Equality;

, Secretary of Territorial Coordination, and

, Secretary of Institutional Relations.

The text stated that feeling male or female could not imply recognition of that identity in legal terms.

"The so-called right to self-determination of sexual identity lacks legal rationality," they settled.
