Very very very grim stuff. For years we've been told that it's too easy for kids to get gender-affirming care. The actual scandal is that it's too hard.

I saw someone call it mansplaining as a service, not just the unwanted explaining but the high inaccuracy and high confidence, and I do think that explains both who makes it and who is pushing it

When I use fat to describe myself, it's not a pejorative. It's the proper descriptor, like blue or lacy or upside-down. Acting like it's a curse word, that I'm putting myself down, says more about YOU than it does about me. Sit with that, maybe, please.

THREAD: UK transphobes are doing a bizarre victory lap over a "systematic review" of gender-affirming care even though it refutes all of their core arguments.

First, only a tiny number of kids medically transition every year.

This is essentially what I do with my nieces…point them in a less problematic direction whenever I hear they’re reading someone I wouldn’t. Seems to work ok so far.

I wrote about the little, casual, sexual assaults that women (and people who present as women) endure CONSTANTLY and how maybe we should all be screaming about this all the time? You can read the full comic here: audacity.substack.com/p/the-conseq...

When he answers his landline, my dad says the town he lives in then the phone number and waits for you to speak. I’m not sure if that’s a U.K. thing for a certain generation or a dad thing but I love it!

One of my male friends in school thought we had to sit on the toilet for our entire period until the uterine lining to came out…in one piece! Another thought we wore 1 pad/tampon all month! 🤢 I pointed them in the right direction!

Completely agree with this! Organisations need to stop promoting people because they’ve been there a long time or that they’re great at their role and start screening for actual leadership skills.

Finished this earlier and I flipping loved it. Great characters, fun murder (can murders be fun? 🤔), new role model/hero unlocked! As an indicator of how much I loved this book, I worked 10 hours today and finished it in less than 24 hours!

Honestly the more I see about dating, the more it seems like a Golden Age for heterosexual men. The bar is incredibly low. Treat women like they're real people with their own thoughts and emotions, like they're human beings worthy of respect, and you've got game.
