As women do

The Daily Mail again, sorry:

Two transgender women who viciously beat up and stamped on a teenager after he mocked them in central London have admitted they ‘overreacted,’ but have slammed Britain as ‘transphobic’.

Tamzin Lush and Tylah Bryan walked free from court last month after admitting violent disorder, alongside a third trans woman, Amarnih Lewis-Daniel, who has not since spoken out. 

They were filmed beating up and stamping on a 19-year-old who mocked them and told them: ‘You’re not a woman. You need a f**** to be a woman’.   

A fanny, that is, which here in the US is just very mild slang for butt/bum/ass/arse, so mild that it may have dropped out of use altogether, but in the UK is rude slang for The Lady Parts.

Anyway.

Now Lush, 29, and Bryan, 24, have spoken about the incident, admitting ‘we took it too far,’ as they said their actions were ‘entirely wrong’ after they reacted violently, spurred on by alcohol. 

The trans women said they faced abuse every day, but spoke about the attack, which was filmed outside Leicester Square tube station in 2018.

Bryan, from Barking, east London, said: ‘You get people that make passing comments and by the time they’ve said anything, they’re gone – they keep walking.

‘We were telling him to jog on and leave us alone. This guy was adamant to let us know his beliefs and it wasn’t just a passing comment.’

On the other hand it was just a comment, as opposed to slamming him to the platform and then kicking him.
