Intersex people are threatened by every executive order, law and ruling that attempt to strip human rights from transgender people. Our access to hormones, rights to access bathrooms and play sports, and notably our demand to freedom from infant genital mutilation are at stake.

Let's be clear that what is at stake here is not validation but trans, queer, intersex and asexual citizenship. Particularly Trans citizenship. Literally in the case of many trans people having passports withdrawn completely.

Stop saying “DEI hire”. Don’t repeat it when others use it. Don’t use it mockingly against those using it. Don’t use it to refer to practices that were implemented to attempt to counteract discrimination and even out the playing field. Don’t give credibility to a euphemism. Make people be specific.

To be very clear - the Commission on Human Medicine's number one reason for stating puberty blockers are "unsafe" was the speculated impact on "gender and sexuality maturation" and the idea they are making "homosexual in nature" children trans rather than gay. Bigotry wrapped up in nonsense.

Reading Tristram Shandy can be a bit of a slog at times, but then some chapters simply breeze by. Vol 4 chapter 24 went by in a snap and I’m grinning about it days later. Tho I’m still a bit daunted by the roughly 400 pages still left in the book

1/🧵 I have reviewed the House of Lords amendments to the Data (Use and Access) Bill by Ralph Palmer and James Arbuthnot, which were endorsed by Sex Matters. The amendments would enable hate groups to operate a discrimination-on-demand service, which is dangerous and incompatible with the ECHR.

TLDR: There is nothing enforceable for the immediate future. It will take months or years to implement this via rulemaking or bureaucratic changes which are then subject to legal challenge. While it's worrying, there's no immediate change yet for most trans people. Do not comply in advance.

These executive orders on banning federally funded entities from recognizing trans people or disallowing them from using the bathroom are not self-executing or immediately enforceable. They require formal rule making at a minimum. They are a scare tactic. Ignore and do not comply in advance.

I’d already been out for years when the first GIC saw me, heck their waiting list was years long already. And it took plenty more years for them to approve my initial HRT. I have big feelings about it all. I’m glad I made it this far, but it shouldn’t have been such a battle.

Tristram Shandy doing 100 pages worth of tangents before returning to what’s ostensibly the main plot, is very relatable (and often fascinating). But so help me if this happens again, I’m gonna have to make a flowchart or something
