A UNION is calling on the University of Edinburgh to cancel a film screening due to take place on the campus next week over concerns it will be “detrimental” to the safety of LGBT+ staff.
A screening of the film Adult Human Female is scheduled to occur in a lecture hall on the university’s George Square campus on December 14.
According to the British Board of Film Classification, the film discusses “issues relating to trans and women’s rights” and “discriminatory terms such as ‘tranny’ and ‘pan-fry sexual’ occur, often in the context of reported speech”.
