1. Desconfianza Institucional y Maltrato Policial.
Existe una profunda desconfianza en las fuerzas del orden, como la Policía de Transporte Británica (BTP) y otras, debido a políticas percibidas como abusivas, incluyendo cacheos íntimos realizados por oficiales del sexo opuesto y el riesgo de ser misgenerizado legalmente.
- I am sorry but the transport police strip search trans femmes using male officers and you expect them to come forward? youre a bigger threat than the guy who hit them with a bottle.
- Trans people in the uk dont even feel safe to go to the police when theyve been hate crimed on a train and bottled in the head. Dignityrespect brought to you by british transport police, uk labour and ehrc misogyterfs.
- I can not emphasise how rigged against trans people the application of law is within the uk. There are clear evidence of sympathies throughout the police and judiciary with what are essentially far-right vehicles for civil unrest and division.
2. El Auge de la "Policía de Baños" y la Vigilancia de Género.
La retórica anti-trans ha llevado a la preocupación por la implementación de políticas que requieren la vigilancia del género y la apariencia en espacios públicos, lo que resulta en acoso constante no solo para las personas trans, sino también para las mujeres cisgénero que no cumplen con los estereotipos de feminidad.
- I dont get how any of this is supposed to work. Are all law enforcement genital inspectors now? like someone calls the police. That woman is a man. Police alright. Drop em. Let me see. Is it a male officer? or a female officer in case they are wrong? and a trans man in the womens? seriously?
- I've been challenged in public restrooms more than once - and im a cis woman okay, soft butch. This is a license to subject trans people to constant harassment, to having the police called every time they use a public restroom - to make things so unbearable as to drive them from public life.
- The best response to this is for cis allies to go to public bathrooms all over the country and call the police to accuse each other of being trans. Just show off the absurdity and completely unenforceable nature of the ban.
3. Fracaso en la Documentación e Investigación de Crímenes de Odio.
A pesar de las cifras oficiales, existe una fuerte evidencia de que los crímenes de odio contra personas trans están siendo subregistrados o ignorados por las fuerzas policiales, lo que lleva a una "ilusión estadística" de calles más seguras mientras las víctimas pierden la confianza en el sistema de justicia.
- Between march 2024 and march this year, police acted on over 3800 transphobic hate crimes. Thats before you account for the fact that 88 of trans people dont report acts of hate to authorities.
- Victims, especially trans victims, should not be told to fuck off by two different police forces when they report a hate crime.
- When victims lose confidence and stop reporting, the data collapses. That isnt a safer society - its a statistical illusion to keep chief constables and politicians happy.
