My name is Ella, I'm 17 years old.
I do long jump. I play volleyball. I go to school in New Richmond, Wisconsin.
When my school allowed a biological male into the girls' restroom without telling parents —
I went to the school board.
With my name attached.
In my own town.
I got bullied for it. Harassed online. Even some of my own teachers came after me.
I'm still here.
Because here's what I know:
The net in women's volleyball is set nearly a foot lower for a reason.
A biological male can hit a ball across that net at force that could seriously injure a girl.
And in track — all it takes is three biological males entering the girls' category
and not a single girl in this state stands on a podium.
I didn't speak up because it was easy.
I spoke up because somebody had to.
The Supreme Court is about to answer the question every girl in America is asking.
We're ready.

Great news. The Labour Party has finally found a woman they fancy as leader. It's a man who'll be 'a female PM in all but sex.'
A senior figure in the party actually thought that was a good thing to say out loud.

'Support for trans athletes competing based on their gender identity has dropped from 32% in 2021 to 22% in 2026, with opposition the dominant view in almost all countries, including
historically supportive ones.'

Good piece from Sarah.
It’s impossible to believe that one in three people at Holyrood honestly don’t know what sex they are, so the conclusion must be that they’re lying.
Which is a pretty concerning thing, especially considering they’re in charge of the country.
❌Repeated failure to listen to women
❌Dismissal of women’s concerns
❌Failure to treat women’s pain
❌Callous behaviour towards mothers and their babies
Anyone noticing a pattern?
The report makes heartrending and damning reading.
This is not an isolated pattern. The NHS (and others) must change. That means listening to women.

These men understand very well the asymmetry of power and harm that exist between men and women. They know they are physically threatening, they rely on the fact that women know it too.
When this is all over the NHS will have spent well over a million pounds of our public money defending this man’s desire to get undressed with unconsenting nurses, it’s completely and utterly sick
Watch Destie Hohman Sprague, director of the @MEWomensLobby, chuckling dismissively at all the young Maine girls who testified they've been subjected to m*sturb*ating boys in their bathrooms, voyeurism, harassment & abuse.
Destie laughs that it's all a 'manufactured crisis' and there's no problem at all in Maine. Destie personally testified in support of every law giving boys and men full access to female spaces and sports in Maine.
She won't even acknowledge the female inmates who are now being abused by violent male convicts in their prison. Her testimony that helped pass the law to put them there was all about risk to the poor men - she never even mentioned the women who would have to share cells with them. Women don't matter to the Maine Women's Lobby.
@freespirited_p There is no evidence that trans-identified men don’t have exactly the same pattern of criminality as all other men. On the contrary, all available evidence suggests they do.
A search history of “rape, lust, fantasy” & an alarm reminder to “rape tomorrow”. His victim barely escaped after he imprisoned her in a toilet at work & tried to strangle & rape her.
He'll serve less than two years.
Because women don't matter.
“Gender ideology, transgenderism, isn’t true. Every single aspect of it is a lie. In fact, every claim it makes, the exact opposite is true. Men are not women, women are not men, no one is born in the wrong body, sex is not changeable, gender identity isn’t real.”
There is just one thing I want to draw attention to- the cruel look & little ‘fuck you’ wobble of the head from the UN rapporteur on violence against women, when she’s confronted with a traumatised & raped woman.
Where she is from shouldn’t matter- but how clearly it does
I wasn’t sure whether I’d be able to breastfeed because I have a liver condition and need daily steroid medication.
After discussions with my midwife and obstetrician, it was agreed that I could.
But when my daughter was born 11 weeks early and admitted to neonatal intensive care, I couldn’t breastfeed her directly. I expressed milk instead.
There were careful discussions about whether my milk was suitable for her and whether any surplus could safely be donated to other premature babies.
That’s how seriously infant feeding is normally treated: careful assessment, evidence and the baby’s welfare coming first.
Yet we’re now expected to applaud giving healthy men drugs to produce a few drops of milk-like secretion and treat it as equivalent to breastfeeding.
And this is before we even address the fact that many people would find the idea of a man wanting to breastfeed a baby deeply unsettling - and believe it raises legitimate safeguarding questions.
When did protecting adult feelings become more important than asking sensible questions about what’s in a baby’s best interests?
Nope, try again. Not a ‘trans changing room tribunal’ a ‘male in female changing room tribunal’.
Your determination to obscure the truth is part of the reason organisations are finding themselves on the wrong end of a lawsuit. Slow clap for your major role in pushing disinformation 👏👏👏
@BBCNews This was about women. And the women’s changing room. And women’s rights. Could you even reference women in the headline about the case they brought, funded and won ?
