Clare B Dimyon MBE is a LGB rights and anti-trans rights campaigner. In 2010 she was awarded the Member of the Order of the British Empire for "services to promoting the rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people in central and eastern Europe".[1]
In 2016 Dimyon spoke to the press about her experience as a survivor of a violent life-threatening sexual assault in 1984,[2] in support of a 14 year old who was abducted and raped in Oxford.[3][4]
Since 2010, Clare Dimyon has repeatedly campaigned and argued against the rights of trans people, particularly speaking against their right to access appropriate gender specific services such as rape crisis centres.[5][6][7] Although Clare Dimyon claims not to be transphobic,[8] her twitter feed[9] is mostly focused on campaigning against trans people and their rights. Combined with the other sources, this suggests that this campaign work (against trans people) is now her primary focus.
