We remind Members of Parliament, government officials and government agencies that their response must not further inflame discrimination. Officials and agencies have a duty to discern public backlash that is rooted in discrimination and respond wisely to de-escalate discrimination. In contrast, there is overwhelming evidence of the harm caused by the suppression of diverse gender expressions and gender identities. Men, in general, suffer from rigid gender constructs that limit their self-expression from how they dress, to how they express their emotions, among others. Instead, they should address the root problems – discrimination against LGBT people, gender disinformation, and gender stereotypes.
