A mum who was arrested on suspicion of deliberately misgendering a trans woman is set to appear in court.
Kate Scottow was visited by officers from Hertfordshire Police after an online argument allegedly saw her refer to transgender rights activist Stephanie Hayden as a man despite knowing she identified as a woman.
Scottow, 38, was taken to a police station and interviewed following the incident in February and has now been charged with making malicious communications on social media, The Sun reports.
Scottow, of Hitchin, Herts, will now face magistrates in Stevenage on September 18.
Following her arrest she took to forum Mumsnet to describe being confronted in front of her two young children.
A CPS spokesman said: “We made the decision to charge Katherine Scottow after reviewing a file of evidence from Hertfordshire Police relating to social media posts.
“The Crown Prosecution Service reminds all concerned that criminal proceedings against Ms Scottow are now active and that she has a right to a fair trial.
"It is extremely important that there should be no reporting, commentary or sharing of information online which could in any way prejudice these proceedings.”

You cannot have a “fair trial”, or indeed any sort of a trial at all, if what you are accused of is saying “water is wet” or “A is A”.

Sounds like tyranny. There is no ‘Second Amendment’ in Britain.

Fools. If a man dressed as woman is not a man dressed as a woman, what is it? We are here:“If there are no absolutes by which to judge society, then society is absolute.” Francis Schaeffer, How Shall We Then Live? (Old Tappan NJ: Fleming H Revell Company, 1976), p. 224.
