lpv:translated text	"I was unable to vote for the report on gender mainstreaming in the work of the European Parliament. Naturally, I am in favour of equal treatment and equal opportunities for men and women; I have been campaigning for these things from a young age, and since 1965, as a national member of parliament and as an MEP. Unfortunately, however, extremists in the Committee on Women’s Rights and Gender Equality have, as always, taken advantage of this report in order to include in it demands that have nothing to do with the subject at hand and which concern transgender people, against whom no one wishes to discriminate. Parliament has neither the means nor the human resources to assess how policies and activities affect transgender people. At the most, this is something that could be requested of the European Commission. However, the Commission is called on to consider ‘gender identity’ – a concept that appears neither in the Treaties nor in the case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union – in all of its activities, and not just those in the field of gender equality. I will not vote for such reports, because no one can achieve the impossible."@en1
