Great expose of InsideOUT. I think this organisation is insidious, whether it's intentional or not. Over the course of ten documents in their school guidelines they mention the words trans or transgender over 600 times, and lesbian only 44 times. Intersex and gay fare better, but are still way, way less than the words trans and transgender. In every instance of guidance, everyone has to give way to transpeople's wants. Tell me where their focus is, eh?

Plus InsideOut is a member of ILGA which is a signatory to a (supposedly) feminist document which, however, promotes action to "Eliminate all laws and policies … that limit the exercise of bodily autonomy, including laws limiting legal capacity of adolescents, to provide consent to sex … "

WHO (the World Health Organisation) considers adolescents to be people from 10 – 19 years old. Therefore they support kids having complete say-so of when they have sex.
