MP Follow Up To The EHRC Consultation

 This affect millions of people in the UK.

Having responded to the EHRC consultation, we are now providing a 10 letter series of letters to Parliment, asking for them to reject ANY EHRC guidance changes. 

These changes would erase legal recognition of trans people and redefine rights in a way that undermines the rights of women, men, LGB people and intersex people. It also forces good people into impossible situations.

This effects ALL people in the UK, not just trans people. We are being used as an excuse to roll equality rights to the dark ages.

This is the worst case of Human Rights Violations we have seen in British History.

Letter 1: The EHRC guidance has been written by Sex Matters

Letter 2: Highlighting the 15 to 17 million people affected by the proposed changes.

Letter 3: Evidence that the EHRC is ignoring the actual science of biology,

Letter 4: Volume of laws the EHRC is violating.

Letter 5: How the EHRC’s draft Code has been shaped by ideology, often religious, not fact.

Letter 6: The lies about the risks to women.

Letter 7: EHRC is unravelling the legal foundations in every sector of society.

Letter 8: The EHRC places the UK in violation of international human rights law.

Letter 9:. This is a systemic dismantling of rights, protections and the rule of law that have taken generations to build.

Letter 10:
Millions of people are watching…

Let’s Tell The Truth

Before anything else, you are human.

That simple, undeniable truth must be protected. No identity, no label, no belief changes your right to exist with dignity and safety. We will not allow ignorance, fear, or hate to strip away the rights that protect us all. Together, we stand against those who seek to divide and diminish our humanity.

We stand together for everyone’s right to body autonomy and to live as their true self. Conformity is not a condition of humanity. No one should be forced to change, hide, or justify their existence.

Women’s rights are trans rights.

All trans men and AFAB non-binary, gender-fluid, and AFAB gender-diverse people were born in female bodies. All trans women are women, in every respect. Its safe to say that all trans people are feminists who stand for women’s rights to respect, dignity, and safety. We are united in this fight.

Our struggles are not separate, they are intertwined. When you attack trans rights, you attack women’s rights. When you defend one, you defend all women.

* Around 45% of trans people are trans men, born into female bodies (AFAB). Another 45% are trans women, living as women and deeply understanding the challenges women face every day. The remaining 10% are non-binary, with around half also AFAB. That means at least 95% of trans people have lived the female experience and are guaranteed feminists, standing up for women’s rights, dignity, and safety in everything they do. Our fight is shared. Our voices are united.

* Figures given are approximate, based on membership of our group.

Violence Targets Us All

Violence and harassment are a constant threat for both trans people and women. We are attacked daily. We are raped. We are abused. The struggle is shared. We must protect all our sisters. Cis women, trans women, and every human under attack.

Cis women are being targeted too. Simply expressing yourself outside traditional gender norms, short hair, non-gendered clothing, or other non-conforming choices can make you a target. The so-called ‘women’s anti-trans’ groups are not protecting you. They are making you more vulnerable to abuse.

Challenging Lies. Demanding Dignity.

All public bodies, officials, and those with power over our lives must be held accountable. They are being fed lies, we will confront them with truth, demand respect, and educate them about who we are. This is not just our fight. It’s a human issue that includes them too. We will speak intelligently, honestly, and with facts, not hate, hearsay, or rhetoric.

We will not wait for change, we will create it. Stand with us. Speak the truth. Demand respect.

About Us

Trans Matters Worldwide is one of the UK’s largest trans communities, based in London. What began as a social group has become a movement. Faced with growing attacks on our rights and our existence, we are taking action and we refuse to be silent.

We are not new to advocacy. We have produced four ground-breaking films, viewed by thousands worldwide, giving trans people the opportunity to speak openly and honestly about their lives,  without filters or censorship. No group has ever done this before. In June, we will release a fifth film Dear Wes… exposing the removal of trans youth healthcare.

This is our first major public campaign, but our voices have already reached across the globe. Our mission is clear, to defend dignity, educate the public, and empower trans people and their allies to stand together against hate and misinformation.

FAQ’s

What exactly am I giving permission for when I sign?

By signing, you give permission for your name and signature to be included in letters, petitions, and official communications sent to MPs, the House of Lords, NHS bodies, media outlets, and any organisations or individuals threatening women’s rights, trans rights, LGBTQIA+ rights, and human rights. Your signature will be used solely to advocate for truth, respect, and the protection of our rights.

Can I opt out of certain campagins?

Yes you can. Each month we’ll send you a list of that months campaigns. You have the opportunity to opt out of that campaign, if you wish. You will be automatically added in to future comapigns unless you opt out of those campaigns. 

Why do you need so many signatures?

One voice can be ignored. Thousands cannot. When thousands of us stand together, our message becomes impossible to dismiss. Your signature helps turn individual struggles into a united front.

Will my personal information be safe?

Yes. We will only use your name and signature as stated, in advocacy letters and petitions. 

We take your privacy and security very seriously. Your information is protected by industry-standard encryption and robust security systems, and we’ve put strong anti-hacking measures in place. We will never sell or misuse your data. You can also withdraw your consent at any time if you change your mind.

Why are you asking for my postcode?

MPs will only repond to people who are in their constituency. Though we will never give anymore your postcode, we can verify that we have signatories from that particular constituent that forces the MP to repond. Once they repond, we know where they really stand and can repond appropriately.

Who will receive these letters and petitions?

Letters will go to Members of Parliament (Commons and Lords), healthcare bodies like the NHS, public officials, the media, and any groups promoting falsehoods or policies that threaten women’s, trans, and LGBTQIA+ rights. We’ll also reach out to international organisations where needed.

What type of content will be included in the letters, and how can I trust the approach?

Our letters will be grounded in verified facts and evidence, written in a respectful but firm tone. They will be direct, educational, and personalised to each recipient, sharing personal experiences to provide a human perspective. We will speak intelligently and honestly, avoiding hearsay, hate speech, or rhetoric. The goal is to promote constructive dialogue, ensure accountability, and demand respect while maintaining professionalism and credibility.

Why should cis women care about this?

Because cis women are being targeted too. Non-conforming appearance or behaviour, like short hair or gender-neutral clothing, can make anyone a target. Anti-trans rhetoric is making all women’s lives more dangerous. This fight is for all of us.

What impact can we really have?

We will not wait for change, we will create it. By standing together and speaking with one powerful, unified voice, we can influence public policy, educate decision-makers, and defend our shared human rights. Change happens when we refuse to stay silent.
