@LissaKEvans I told my infant school teacher that I wanted to be a bookmaker, because I loved books and reading, and didn't understand why she looked startled until quite a few years later.

@ChrisLangWriter @LissaKEvans I'm a bit scared of party rings these days, what with having a capped front tooth. Can recommend mini ones, though.

@RosieDuffield1 @adamndsmith Oh, I WISH the idiocy was unique.

@trixietrottsba1 @RachelB76293670 @SusannaRustin @SonyaDouglas Things like rape crisis groups, refuges, homeless shelters, hospital bays, locked psychiatric wards, prisons. You know, places where women are vulnerable.

[Cath L @CathL1]

@SonyaDouglas As a gender-critical woman, it wouldn't ever occur to me to use, " you look like a transwoman" as an insult. That really WOULD be transphobic, which I am not.

@RachelB76293670 @trixietrottsba1 @SusannaRustin @SonyaDouglas And that if you enter a women's single-sex space and there IS a man there, you can kick up a fuss and he will be seen as the intruder he is and be removed.

@ClearThinker66 @SimonLevack @v_j_freeman I know, I wasn't talking about this specific case - just generalising.

[Cath L @CathL1]

@SimonLevack @v_j_freeman As long as those rules are made explicit. Unwritten rules (especially illogical social ones) are the bane of my life.

@iseult @SeeRedWoman1 The book that made me realise you were ALLOWED to write about real places that weren't London.

@JN_Dicaire @helenstaniland Darling child, being old is GOOD. It means we have years and YEARS of the "lived experience" that is so important. You might understand this one day, if you are lucky.

@mojopono @BettsCaro @donelkins @jk_rowling Lesbians aren't men. It is not the same.

@HazelArcher11 @BertDalziel How absolutely lovely of big brother and his mates!

[Cath L @CathL1]

@QcWynter That fella sounds like he's dying to offer to check; you can almost hear the thigh rubbing. Also, we did not need to see genitalia to know Tickles was not and never had been a "girl".

@MaryMarykf61 @DrNeilStone Other timezones exist.

@TinyWriterLaura It's also safeguarding - unfortunately they do need to know that not all adults are safe and not all will be their new best friend.

@LissaKEvans @SVPhillimore TNS in print, but I got out of the habit of typing in it because it was horrible on computer screens. Might be better now THEY'RE better, mind you. 🤔

@henrymorganI @blablafishcakes Ooh, I think it's more Thomas Hardy!

@angegarrod I turned on the radio, was assaulted by "View to a Kill", and turned off again. Who WAS that? For avoidance purposes?

[Cath L @CathL1]

@rinka_dog @stephenpollard Who was that "singing" View to a Kill? It was painful.
