Kate Nash has released "GERM," a protest anthem targeting anti-trans sentiments in the UK, spurred by a Supreme Court ruling defining women biologically. The song rejects transphobia and misogyny, challenging the rhetoric surrounding fears for bathroom safety and women's sports, while highlighting statistics about violence against women. Nash emphasizes that silence was not an option after the ruling, advocating for trans rights and pointing out the dangers of using feminism to invalidate others' rights. The song will be performed live at an upcoming festival, showcasing her commitment to activism through art.
"I feel no threat from any trans person that might be in the toilets... The 69,958 rapes that were reported between Oct 2023 & Sept 24 in the UK do slightly concern me though."
"Using feminism to erase the rights of others is inherently un-feminist. 'GERM' is my response to the recent news that the Supreme Court ruled that the legal definition of a woman is based on biological sex..."
