Trans Rape Crisis Centre Chief Quits After Review Found Survivors 'Damaged'
... after a report found Mridul Wadhra failed to protect wemen-only spaces.
Mridul Wadhra said 'bigoted' rape survivors should be re-educated about transgender rights and needed to 'reframe their trauma'.
If anything needs reframing it's the brains of people like that who have no idea what it's like to be a woman. They just think they do. Let's hope the next appointment is one that properly fits the bill.

That statement alone demonstrates he has absolutely no idea what rape does to a woman. How can any woman draw anything "positive" from being raped? It is the worst thing that can happen to any woman apart from being murdered, and some rape survivors actually wish they had died, so placing their ordeal worse than that.
This idiot is a complete nut job and should be allowed nowhere near vulnerable women. I also agree that the people who recruited him to that position have a lot of questions to answer.
His statements make a mockery of the experiences of true rape victims.
That organisation needs to replace him with someone like the counsellor...Roz Adams...who was unfairly dismissed. Her "view was that people using the centre should have a choice over who they received support from on the basis of sex, and that sex was binary and "everyone is either male or female at that level".
