Opinion: On trans rights, journalists must stand with the facts
Can a trans woman, simply by being a transgender woman, be a threat to cisgender women [people whose gender identity matches their sex assigned at birth — Editor's note]? In more and more countries, including the United States, the United Kingdom and Spain, a sector within the feminist movement seems to think so.

Have your say in the comments section Daniel, who was interviewed alongside Elijah for the April edition of Empire magazine, also said he was once asked to autograph a photo of the American actor in Japan. He recalled: “My first instinct was to say, ‘Oh, I’m not, so I can’t…’ but the language barrier would be too much. “So the quickest way to deal with it was to just write, ‘I am … [Read more...] about Daniel Radcliffe pens autograph ‘I’m not Elijah Wood’ in hope it’s ‘translated later’
