@easyJet my flight EZY210 was supposed to depart Glasgow at 2145 has been delayed till 0126. All the shops through the airport are closed and I am pregnant. On top of that, now nobody will be able to get me at 0230 in the morning from Bristol. Will I be compensated?

There have been 13 Olympics that have allowed trans women to compete in the female category if they meet the hormonal and physical requirements of the trans sports policy. The results over 13 Olympic games suggests trans women massively underperform in elite womens sports.

Since the IOC has created a rule for trans athletes to compete in 2003, over 81,000 people have become Olympians. Out of those 81,000 Olympians a total of 2 have been trans women & one came dead last the other came 37th out of 42.

There isn’t a single trans or intersex woman dominating her sport. Even Caster Semenya, the most famous, & most successful, intersex woman athlete doesn’t “dominate” her sport. Caster has won a total of two Olympic golds medals & holds no world records.

By contrast, Katie Ledecky has won a total of 9 Olympic gold medals and has broken 19 world records since 2013.

Why is Katie Ledecky treated like a marvel, and Caster Semenya and transgender women are treated like mutants?

There currently exists no evidence to suggest that trans women who elect to suppress testosterone (through, for example, gender affirming hormone therapy and/or surgical gonad removal) maintain disproportionate advantages over c_swomen indefinitely.

More specifically, current evidence suggests any physical performance advantages trans women do not fall outside the range observed among XX women after 2 years of testosterone suppression.

There is money in the NHS but it’s not going to patients….

Years ago when I first worked as a physio there was no private organisation in health, every penny went on clinical care.

Then it started. First with the cleaners. 1/5

HAVE YOU EVER CONSIDERED - hear me out - to let transwomen live their OWN life because it DOESN'T affect yours in any way ?! 🥺🏳️‍⚧️

Jk Rowling and John Cleese are both wrong.
Why people are trans is biological.

Human sex development is not a single switch at birth. It is a multi stage process involving chromosomes gene expression hormones receptors and brain development and these stages do not always align.

Early embryos all follow the same pathway. Later gene activation and hormone exposure guide physical sex traits. Brain development follows a different timeline and is shaped by prenatal hormones. In some people the brain develops along a female typical pattern while other aspects of the body develop differently. This happens before birth. It is not learned or chosen.

Chromosomes are only a starting point and they are not binary. Many people are XXY XO mosaics or have conditions like androgen insensitivity where XY chromosomes produce a typically female body. Chromosomes alone do not determine lived sex.

Neuroscience shows that many trans people have brain structures and response patterns that align more closely with their lived sex than the sex recorded at birth. This reflects natural biological variation.

Medical transition works because it aligns the body with that underlying biology. It resolves a mismatch. It does not invent anything artificial.

This is why modern medicine does not define sex by chromosomes alone. Doctors treat the body and brain that exist not a lab label.

Biology is complex whether people like it or not.

Human variation is not a threat to biology.
It is biology.

Dear LGBTQIA+ if you feel worn down right now remember this. There is a multi billion dollar machine spending every day trying to convince you that you are alone powerless and losing.
You are still here. You are still visible. You are still changing the world. The noise exists because progress terrifies them. They would not work this hard if we were losing.

J.K. Rowling and anti trans campaigners repeatedly claim that trans women are a danger to women.

Two women have been charged in North Carolina after police say they kidnapped and sexually assaulted a transgender woman in a public bathroom at a bar in Raleigh.

According to court records and police statements reported by US media outlets including Out News and local North Carolina press the incident took place inside a women’s restroom where the victim was forcibly detained assaulted and prevented from leaving. Authorities have charged Amber Harrell and Jessica Fowler with second degree kidnapping and sexual battery in connection with the attack.

The survivor has since spoken publicly about the assault and the trauma she experienced. She has stated that she was targeted because she is transgender and that the attack occurred in a space where she had every legal right to be. Police have confirmed that the case is being treated as a serious violent offence.

The facts of the case directly contradict years of claims made by anti trans campaigners who insist that trans women present a danger in public bathrooms. In this case the alleged perpetrators were two women and the victim was a trans woman. The harm flowed in the opposite direction to the narrative that has dominated public debate.

Despite this the usual figures who claim to be obsessed with safeguarding and bathroom safety have remained conspicuously silent. Public figures who routinely comment on toilets changing rooms and trans women’s presence in public spaces have not addressed this case or acknowledged that a trans woman was sexually assaulted in a bathroom by people attempting to police womanhood.

This silence matters because bathroom panic has never been about safety. It has been about suspicion surveillance and exclusion. When real violence happens to trans women in these spaces it is ignored or minimised because it does not fit the story being sold.

Data consistently shows that trans people are far more likely to be victims of sexual violence than perpetrators. Multiple studies from the US and UK show that trans women face elevated risks of assault harassment and abuse particularly in public spaces where their presence is contested. Restrictive bathroom policies do not prevent violence. They increase vulnerability.

This case is a reminder of the real world consequences of years of hostile rhetoric. When public discourse frames trans women as threats it emboldens people to confront harass and police them. That atmosphere creates danger not safety.

Safeguarding means protecting people who are at risk not inventing enemies. If those who claim to care about women’s safety were serious they would be speaking out about this case loudly and clearly. Their silence exposes what this debate has always been about.

Trans women are not the danger. They are the ones being harmed.

Francesca Albanese, a UN Special Rapporteur, was sanctioned by the US for documenting Israel’s genocide in Gaza, and naming the corporations profiting from it. As a result, her assets were frozen, her career was torched, she was debanked, AND her health insurance was rescinded. This is punishment for telling the truth, but she has NEVER faltered.

Israel needs to be stopped.

They have squeezed the remaining population into 12% of Gaza.

They are murdering starving people queuing for food with white flags.

They are sending in armoured demolition companies to destroy every single building in Gaza.

They have murdered every highly qualified doctor/surgeon to prevent them treating victims - mostly kids.

This is the most clearly planned GENOCIDE imaginable.

And the Zionists will say "prove it" - and the whole world can see it even though they've murdered every journalist in Gaza and banned any more from entering.
