The United Nations has selected a man who identifies as a woman — and has also spoken about stealing his sister’s underwear —to work as a U.N. Women U.K. delegate with the U.N.’s Commission on the Status of Women.
Martin “Katie” Neeves tweeted, “I’m happy to announce that I’ve been accepted as a UN Women UK delegate to the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women, which is the principal global intergovernmental body exclusively dedicated to the promotion of gender equality and the empowerment of women.”
In 2022, footage emerged of Neeves from a diversity training webinar where he stated, “My earliest memories were of my mum catching me trying on a pair of my sister’s knickers. I remember when I did it, it felt so right. But then my mum came in, and she caught me and told me off … In my childhood, I used to secretly dress in my sister’s clothes whenever I had the opportunity. And whenever I did it, it felt so right. But then those feelings of being right were very quickly overtaken by feelings of guilt, shame, and self-loathing. Because what I was doing was wrong, it was dirty, it was naughty, and not what respectable people did.”
In September, the East and West Midlands Women’s Awards bestowed its Outstanding Female LGBTQIA+ Champion award on Neeves. The organization’s website states the purpose of the Women’s Awards is “to raise awareness, recognize and honor the hard work and valuable contribution women of all cultures, communities, races, and beliefs, in all sectors make.”
In January, after a biological male was chosen by U.N. Women U.K. as their first “Champion,” 17 British organizations fired off a letter slamming the U.N. for ignoring actual women in their selection.
The letter said that Munroe Bergdorf, appointed U.N. Women’s U.K. champion in November, had “resigned as an adviser on LGBT+ to the UK Labour Party after previous homophobic and racist posts on social media were revealed. These included saying that ‘all white people’ are ‘violent racists and ‘f*** you, stupid dirty and smelly n****’. There are numerous examples of homophobic messaging, using expressions like ‘f*****’ and ‘old poof,’ ‘hairy barren lesbian’ and ‘barren…hairy d****.’”

“In a separate incident, Bergdorf was dropped as an ambassador to a children’s charity, Childline, because of inappropriate messages which were counter to safeguarding norms,” the letter added.
“This person has objected to women making references to our female bodies,” the letter stated. “Yet many issues affecting women, such as FGM, child marriage and forced marriage, reproductive rights, male violence against women and girls, rape as a war crime, pregnancy and maternity healthcare, and more, are inextricably linked with our female biology. How can this person be a champion of women if these issues are deemed unmentionable?”
