Peppa pig announces her pregancy without talking about the gender of the baby and italian newspapers write that Peppa Pig is welcoming her brother. This is a historical italian sexist tradition: wanting baby boys that can continue the family line. Its legacy is still alive.

i say this as someone who does research in this field: is it that "no one has any good idea of what to do about it" or that the people with good, effective ideas are ignored and drowned out by people with terrible ideas?

I am super glad to be one of the plenary speakers at Lavender 31 in August, in such a wonderful company: @lucyjones.bsky.social, Heiko Motschenbacher & @mixosaurus.bsky.social (lavlang2025.wordpress.com/about-2/).

Watched the channel 4 documentary on Marylin Manson and it is really disgraceful how some people handled the whole story: a video producer who seems to be completely unable to talk about MM violence and obviously MM's lawyer that used the usual traps to undermine the victims. Disgusting.
