BBC row erupts as broadcaster furiously rejects transphobic complaints
The Daily Express says THE BBC has rejected complaints that it published a transphobic article after a row erupted over the story which featured interviews with lesbians who said they have been pressured into having sex with trans women.
The article, which had the headline “We’re being pressured into sex by some trans women”, was published last week. It questioned whether a lesbian is “transphobic if she does not want to have sex with trans women”.
The piece included comments from a number of lesbians who said they have been criticised for not wanting to have sex with trans women, including one who said they “had someone saying they would rather kill me than Hitler”.
