How it feels checking the Welsh Gender Service website every day, just in case they’ve added a 10th announcement

The 4th speaker (and performer!), a disabled non binary person, talks about experiences of being othered by the EHRC guidance and other UK law. They also speak about insufficient disabled toilets - hence the EHRC Guidance being unworkable - before moving onto a poem about it.

The next performance is a poem, encouraging the audience to keep their hearts open in these locked out times.

The third performer
@whatthetrans.comOct 3, 2026, 11:32 AM

The third speech also discusses the real world impact of the institutional transphobia in the UK - leading to even close ones taking their own lives. She finished by saying that this is the fight of our generation, in comparison with Stonewall and marriage equality.
