Paperback. Condition: Good. ?Trans rights are human rights!?  ?Women?s rights are human rights!?  Yes, but the human rights of two groups often conflict.  The only way to resolve these conflicts is through calm, rational, public debate.  Freedom of expression protects the right of women to question certain demands by trans rights activists, even if this might offend.  Raising conflicts between transgender rights and women?s rights is not ?transphobic?, because disagreement is not hatred.  The concept of ?transphobia? should be defined narrowly as statements or acts indicating hostility or prejudice towards transgender persons.  If the right to speak about conflicts is protected, and we start by acknowledging the broad areas of agreement about the human rights of transgender people, we can turn to the substance of these conflicts.Should it be possible for an individual to change their legal sex? If so, how easy should it be?  Should it be changeable only after a diagnosis of gender dysphoria and a waiting period?  Or should it be sufficient to ?self-identify? as a person of the opposite sex?  Or should sex be removed from birth certificates, so that there is nothing to change? Robert Wintemute carefully examines these conflicts, considers the differences between transgender rights and lesbian, gay and bisexual (LGB) rights, and proposes ways to achieve co-existence between transgender rights and women?s and children?s rights.Also available as an audiobook.…

Paperback. Condition: Fair. 'Lesbian and gay rights are human rights!' Is this just a political slogan to be chanted outside legislatures? Or are there legal arguments to support the claim that the right to be free from sexual orientation discrimination is a human right? In particular, can national constitutions and international human rights treaties be interpreted as prohibiting discrimination against same-sex activity, gay, lesbian and bisexual individuals, and same-sex couples? Robert Wintemute attempts to answer these questions by examining three of the most commonly used arguments in favour of such an interpretation: sexual orientation is an 'immutable status', sexual orientation is a 'fundamental choice' or part of 'privacy', and sexual orientation discrimination is sex discrimination. To assess the merits of these arguments, he looks at their relative success and failure in cases argued under three of the world's most influential human rights instruments: the United States Constitution, the European Convention on Human Rights, and the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. He also considers the potential impact of the United Nations Human Rights Committee's recent interpretation of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights in Toonen v. Australia.…
