Excerpt from the transxript:

If there is going to be a misogyny bill which I wouldn’t like, it can’t include men in dresses. The police time is so limited  and so necessary in certain areas, why spread it so thinly. Increasingly politicians have this sort of very egotistical view that they control or they should control the minds of the public they are in charge of, setting what’s right and proper. They are the great ones and we’re just the OES who need to be taught. I see it completely the other way around, so how have we gotten to this point where more people than should seem to believe men can literally be women and women can literally be men. I think feminism is to blame, in a way speaking as a ‘blah blah’ my lived experience as a ‘blah blah’.

The thing that’s most egregious to me is that it is possible to be misogynistic against men. So how have we gotten to a this conversation point? Iirst minister of Scotland believes you can’t be misogynistic to men. Hamza YF is the great defender of women’s rights and women’s safety, much beloved by women all over the country. Yousef has promised this newly proposed misogyny bill coming out in Scotland will be a sort of addition to the hate crime bill because the hate  crime bill didn’t cover women. The proposed misogyny bill  will have this extra act will apply to anyone. What he means by that is trans women. He’s too cowardly to come out and say, “II mean trans women as well”. so he says anyone.
