According to The Telegraph, UK police have refused to reveal the gender of two people who assaulted a 60-year old woman last month, for fears of misgendering them.
Scotland Yard described it as a “gray area”. “We are not going to commit ourselves to something because I’m afraid it’s not black and white”, they said.
The assault took place at Speakers Corner in Hyde Park, where a group of Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminists (TERF) was hosting an event. TERFs believe that transgender women should not be given the same rights as those who were born biologically female.
Maria MacLachlan, a self-proclaimed “gender critical feminist”, was knocked to the ground and beaten. The assailants are thought to be transgender, but this could not be confirmed.

In a Facebook post, MacLachlan wrote: “Earlier this year, my sympathies for trans people started to evaporate after being shocked at the hatred and abuse and threats of violence being directed at women who think as I do, which is that gender is a load of crap and there’s nothing wrong with being a ‘feminine’ man or a ‘masculine woman’ but the bottom line is that women are adult human females and men are adult human males”.
