Please can you help @alisonrooper.bsky.social She desperately needs funds to complete her beautiful documentary about @sophiedancer.co.uk a wonderful woman who I am grateful to call my friend. If all my followers gave £5 she’d be almost there. We need trans positive stories seen by cis people.

Have just found out this is a thing ⬇️ Doesn’t work on mobile unfortunately, which is where I run my life. Worth knowing for future complaints. @tacc.org.uk can you accept my confirmation here as proof that I complained to the BBC today about their article on “What It Feels Like For A Girl”.

I really don’t think it’s discussed enough that the result of Maya Forstater’s employment tribunal said her “gender critical” beliefs were legally held as long as she didn’t discriminate against or misgender trans people, and she’s spent every single fucking day since the judgement doing just that.

🇬🇧 institutions failed to protect trans people when the American Christian-fascist movement attacked them. So now the same movement (and people) are using the same tactics to attack reproductive rights… …so much “women’s rights”.

Please take a few minutes to complain to the BBC about the dreadful article where they give Maya Forstater free reign to wax lyrical on the delusion of being trans. She is a ghoul. And she is wrong. The BBC are complicit in spreading lies and hate by allowing her to be quoted unchallenged. 🤬🤬🤬

The redacted names from the EHRC were the following: John Kirkpatrick Joanne Cash Su-Mei Thompson They have stated that they do not hold any recordings of the meeting.

Oh look, a bunch of ‘gender critical’ transphobic MPs have launched an APPG for ideologically driven anti-trans bigotry under the guise of “women’s rights” 😖 With Rosie Duffield at the helm and the bigoted ‘Women’s Rights Network’ pulling the strings, we know it’s going to be a sh*t-show! 😖😣

Thanks for all the love for #NION If you’re one of the 1202 people so far who’ve liked my original post but maybe didn’t get round to signing, please make sure you do. chng.it/gyvYtb4Tvy

Delighted to see our #NION letter gaining traction at 13.5k signatures. 25k by Monday? I want to address a question/criticism I've seen about our wording. To women upset that we describe ourselves as cis women and refusing to sign on that basis I ask you to reconsider. Please read on...

This is beautful. And so simple. Queer people are scared. This is all you have to do as a cis het person to help take some of that fear away.

A 1053 page review of gender affirming care le.utah.gov/AgencyRP/rep... as reported by @motherjones.com says “gender affirming care reduces suicide risk and improves mental health outcomes in transgender people, with the effect most marked in the u18 age group.” But Wes has other ideas. 🤬🤬🤬

I’ll be there. Will you? Trans allies. Be there or be square. 🏳️‍⚧️ 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️ #NION #notinourname

An update on the withholding of suicide data🧵 Remember how in Dec 2024, after 5 months of chasing NHS England and the DHSC as to whether Alice's data was sent to the DHSC for a report into trans youth suicide by Prof Appleby, I made a FOI of the Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust to ask them...
