Honestly i don't know the whole thing on the legislation, i don't follow it.
But i have few female friends and relatives who are pretty upset about it and very upset about the attitude of the Scottish government.
Their attitude seems to be very much a case of you are wrong, we right, anyone who says different is a nasty bigot and it is not open to discussion. Which to me at least doesn't seem that different from most governments. Although the snp have turned it into an absolute art form.
Personally i can see both sides and i can't understand why it can't be resolved, neither side is asking for anything outrageous. but the government who should be mediating it are actually stoking it.

Which view (that I stated) is invalid in the eyes of the Scottish government though (and why)? It's quite a bold statement to make so it wouldn't hurt to back it up.

Sorry some confusion here, its not your view it is the views of those opposing the legislation whose views are not valid.
Mainly Scottish women who perceive their rights being eroded.
The direct quote is from nicola sturgeon.

Ahhh yep I have re-read, my misunderstanding.

For a minute there I was ready to start battling with the entire Scottish government :D
 
For anyone interested the right to self identify your gender is controversial (as all trans issues seem to be).

The right to self identify has been put in place in several countries already. It's been supported by many reputable international organisations. There doesn't seem to be any research backing up the claims about increased risks for women.

Anyone interested in knowing more about this, the Wikipedia article is a decent place to start:

Funny that. Man who advocates freedom of speech doesn't really champion freedom of speech.

Every day i see him tweet, the more unhinged and Trumpian he comes across.
