she literally complained that a rape survivor wasn't dressed hyperfeminine. i get that a lot of TERFs are the way they are because they have been traumatized by men, but that doesn't give them the right to vilify and attack other women who have gone through the same. particularly concerning is that this is an obvious attempt to deny a group that is disproportionately often affected by sexual assault the mental health care they need to deal with that trauma, made worse by the fact that healthcare systems like the British one already are segregationist institutions that gatekeep care for trans people in every way they can come up with.

Think it would be funny if the trans woman cited was a cis woman, given how often transphobes get false positives when they see a short haircut
i have to assume that the woman suing was also transgender, since they don't specify that she was cis.
