Law Student Faces Disciplinary Action for Saying Women Have Vaginas During Gender Discussion
Jon Jackson 4 hrs ago
A university in Scotland is formally investigating a law student for saying women have vaginas and are not as physically strong as men. The investigation could end with her expulsion.

A student in Scotland is under investigation for making allegedly offensive comments during a virtual seminar regarding gender and law.
Lisa Keogh made the comments during a virtual discussion on "gender feminism and the law" while she was expressing concerns about transgender women participating in women's sports, according to The College Fix. Now, her school—Abertay University in Dundee, Scotland—is investigating whether or not to suspend her for the allegedly "offensive" and "discriminatory" statements.
Keogh is a 29-year-old mother of two and is in her final year in the law school. She was reported to the university by fellow classmates for her comments about women being less physically strong than men, which she made while specifically citing trans woman competing in mixed martial arts.
The complaints about her comments led to the university launching a formal investigation.
According to a story in The Times (U.K.), Keogh called women "the weaker sex" after saying a 32-year-old trans women would be stronger than other women due to years of increased testosterone in her body. The Times wrote Keogh also reportedly called her classmates "man-hating feminists" after another student said all men are rapists.
"I didn't deny saying these things and told the university exactly why I did so," Keogh told The Times. "I didn't intend to be offensive, but I did take part in a debate and outlined my sincerely held views. I was abused and called names by the other students, who told me I was a 'typical white, cis girl.' You have got to be able to freely exchange differing opinions otherwise it's not a debate."
She continued, "I wasn't being mean, transphobic or offensive. I was stating a basic biological fact. I previously worked as a mechanic, and when I was in the workshop there were some heavy things that I just couldn't lift but male colleagues could."
Keogh has also claimed she was muted by the seminar's lecturer when she raised safety concerns about trans women taking part in combat sports.
When she first received emails from Abertay classmates accusing her of transphobia, she "thought it was a joke," she told The Times. Soon, when she learned an actual investigation was launched, she began fearing she would be expelled and not graduating, thus ruining her chances of becoming a lawyer.
The university's misconduct policy states anyone guilty of "using offensive language" or "discriminating against gender reassignment" would be disciplined, with expulsion being the highest penalty.
Abertay University released a statement on the matter, which it shared on Twitter. It read, in part: "To be absolutely clear, freedom of speech within the law is not only permitted at Abertay but is strongly encouraged."
A follow-up tweet from the school added: "All universities should be places where controversial, challenging or even upsetting issues can be debated in a constructive and collegial way. The university does not comment on student disciplinary cases and is duty bound to investigate any complaints received."

Newsweek contacted Abertay University for further comment but had not heard back at the time of publication.
As these -loons-- attempt to put over the idiocy that men and women are -equal- and that being female must be considered so -in all things.
They now want to pretend women have no vagina, while they scream about beasts(men) that intimidate women to get to have a chance at the pleasure of that " non-existent" asset.
As women since the beginning of time have used that asset and man's need of it - to gain, to profit, to control men.
Hypocrites and idiots want the have their cake and eat it too seems to me ...
Just sayin'....
Myself, I deal in reality- women are beautiful , to be admired, to be treated with respect, to be courted and to be joined in with the pleasure that both parties are to enjoy in loving and having with sex.
Modern position is that is dinosaur thinking.
Yet it has been the case since the beginning of time, since the beginning of mankind! FFING IDIOTS... --Tyr
