In a radio interview on Woman's Hour, BBC Radio 4, on 3 November 2021 she denied that she is transphobic and explained that her resignation followed attacks on her by colleagues who are opposed to her views and who foster an "extreme" response from their students: "instead of getting involved in arguing with me using reason, evidence - the traditional university methods - they tell their students in lectures that I pose a harm to trans students."

			The treatment of Stock at the University led in 2025 to The Office for Students (OfS) fining the university over half a million pounds and warning the university that “a chilling effect arose” from the university’s transgender policy that caused staff and students to “self-censor” and left them feeling unable to express “lawful” opinions.
