• FURTHER to the letters of the anonymous correspondents regarding the ongoing matter of gender-neutral public lavatories within Camden (CNJ, April 21), I share the concern of the NW1 writer about the prankster who thought it amusing to terrify a small boy by chanting from a cubicle. This is an act of bullying and is wholly unacceptable.

Unfortunately the legitimate campaign to retain single-sex lavatories and changing rooms is being used by certain pressure groups to marginalise and exclude trans+ women from using facilities commensurate with their gender identity.

Such organisations, often opaquely-funded, are motivated by a thinly-veiled refusal to accept the scientifically and medically-verified fact that trans+ women are women and vice-versa for trans+ men.

All trans+ people and their allies should be aware of this and question political candidates standing for election on May 5. It can’t be overestimated that trans+ people are far more likely to fall victim to sexual offences than be the perpetrators.
