=== Trans activist charged with assault after spitting at women === | |||
On December 14, 2022, trans activists at Edinburgh University prevented the screening of a documentary titled "Adult Human Female," which explains the issues feminists have with the transgender movement.<ref name=reduxx-edinburgh-ahf/> | |||
One of the activists, 35 year-old Robyn Woof, went viral on social media after being caught on camera. He's seen loudly berating the women who came to watch the documentary, physically preventing them from entering the room where the screening was going to take place. One picture appears to show him spitting at the women. | |||
On February 9, 2023, the feminist group Wings Over Scotland shared a statement from Scotland Police, informing them that a "35 year-old woman" had been charged with assault in relation to the incident. | |||
=== Trans activist arrested after attacking feminist protester === | |||
On January 15, 2023, feminist activist Florence Waller attended a Let Women Speak event organized by [[Kellie-Jay Keen-Minshull]] (aka Posie Parker). While leaving the event, she was attacked by a trans activist, who reportedly pushed her to the ground and stole her hand-made banner showcasing slogans in support of women's free speech and single-sex spaces.<ref name=reduxx-waller/> | |||
Waller was not injured, and pursued the attacker, cornering him as a police officer arrived. She later pressed charges against the attacker, and her banner was retrieved by another woman. | |||
<blockquote> | |||
“I went to the event to highlight the importance of same-sex care for vulnerable elderly women as I am myself a carer, and I have no doubt that this individual has absolutely no concern about anything … I wonder if he had even seen the very simple message on my banner as it was rolled up under my arm.” -- Waller reporting to Reduxx | |||
