DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nSince 2018\, there has been a debate in the United 
 Kingdom about whether or not the law should be changed to make it easier f
 or a transgender individual to change their legal sex from their birth sex
 \, and about exceptional situations\, such as women-only spaces and sports
 \, in which the individual’s birth sex should take priority over their gen
 der identity\, regardless of their legal sex.  This debate inspired the fo
 undation in 2019 of a new organisation\, LGB Alliance\, which rejects the 
 political coalition of LGB and T and challenges some transgender demands\,
  because they conflict with the rights of lesbian and bisexual women or th
 e rights of children who might grow up to be LGB adults.\n\nBio\n\nRobert 
 Wintemute (McGill LLB and BCL 1982) is a Professor of Human Rights Law at 
 King’s College London\, UK. Since 2003\, he has participated as a lawyer f
 or the applicants or third-party interveners\, or as an expert witness\, i
 n 15 successful cases challenging discrimination against LGB individuals o
 r same-sex couples in the European Court of Human Rights\, the Court of Ju
 stice of the European Union\, the Inter-American Court of Human Rights\, a
 nd the United Kingdom Supreme Court.   On 23 March 2022\, he argued the ca
 se of Macate v. Lithuania before the 17-judge Grand Chamber of the Europea
 n Court of Human Rights (restrictions on a book of children’s stories beca
 use it included a princess who fell in love with a woman and a prince who 
 fell in love with a man).  The Court’s judgment will be published on 23 Ja
 nuary 2023.\n\nA light lunch will be served.\n
