I've not set up an alternative account for @MxActivist on the Fediverse (yet?), just because I don't use this account very much, but you can find us on Tumblr: https://t.co/6SLLtPar2P

When I'm set up on Mastodon I'll put a link on Tumblr.

NEW: Twitter just alerted employees that effective immediately, all office buildings are temporarily closed and badge access is suspended. No details given as to why.

NHS England has launched a consultation on how the future youth gender services should run in the new clinics opening Spring 2023 🧵

[MxActivist @MxActivist]

Maybe some trans people who use the pond could earnestly take part in this, without being abusive or making sweeping statements that could lead to their response being removed?

This disgustingly transphobic and incredibly leading survey about the trans-inclusive policy at Hampstead Pond is undoubtedly being coordinated to create future media headlines and lobbying material.

It needs to be challenged when that happens…

Hey everyone! If you have ever asked "what can I do to help trans rights," I have something.

Biden's title IX change protecting trans people in schools is open comment for 4 more days!

It is FLOODED by TERF comments.

GO MAKE A COMMENT IN SUPPORT!

In related news, if you rent your home in the UK, joining a renter's union for mutual support is a really good idea. @ACORNunion have campaign branches in many major cities, and their suggested monthly donation is one hour of wage, £5 if part-time, or £3 if unwaged.

[MxActivist @MxActivist]

Thank you to @ACORNunion, whose gender/title questions on their registration form are flawless!

- Gender is optional
- Gender options include "non-binary"
- Title field is totally absent

👍✨

[MxActivist @MxActivist]

For title preferences among #nonbinary people in the UK, no title at all overtook Mx for the first time this year in the @gendercensus: https://t.co/sks98zI8Ci

Titles should always be optional, and an absent title question does the job as well!

[MxActivist @MxActivist]

@kitation There are more Mr than Miss/Ms/Mrs combined, and there are over 4,000 of each "male with no title" and "female with no title", if that helps!

[MxActivist @MxActivist]

Another completed FOI request with some statistics on Mx, this time from the DVLA: https://t.co/MhXPrtDTna

TL;DR: In June 2022 there were 944 people who had registered their title as Mx with the DVLA in the UK.

[MxActivist @MxActivist]

A new blog post on some statistics on Mx I acquired through a Freedom of Information request to HMRC: https://t.co/aGCbHgFVAH

TL;DR: There are at least 7,000 people who've registered their title as Mx with HMRC in the UK.

Not huge numbers, but I still feel the warm-and-fuzzy!

[Trans Actual @TransActualUK]

Are you in the process of using the new electronic system to apply for a Gender Recognition Certificate? If so, please e-mail us at [email protected], we'd like to know how the process was.

[Gender Census @gendercensus]

The worldwide report for the 2022 Gender Census is now published: https://t.co/M4c1wi8N8h

It's about language preferences about genders beyond the binary.

You can also read a summary of the big three questions (identities, titles and pronouns) here: https://t.co/giwkG4nxtm

[Ariell Cacciola is not here very much @ariellcacciola]

Help! I'm on the lookout for trans & non-binary writers working in horror (& any relevant subgenres: think gothic, body horror, vampire, witchcraft, etc)

If you know a talented writer or you're that talented writer, please reply. RTs appreciated

It's for a publishing thing

[Trans Safety Network @trans_safety]

BREAKING:

London GIC have walked back from the 72 hour discharge warnings they issued to patients being taken in from the 2018 waiting list.

They have now issue new guidance on appointment timelines which can be found here:

[Trans Safety Network @trans_safety]

Trans people given 72 hours to respond before being removed from Charing Cross waiting list

[LGBwiththeT @LGBwiththeT]

🚨 BREAKING 🚨

1/

The Gender Critical cult are turning a positive thing for trans children into a win for anti trans people with the announcement that the Tavistock clinic will be replaced by new regional, better equipped, and faster appointment clinics!

This is POSITIVE news!

[Cas ➡️ @[email protected] @cassolotl]

So far so good on this informal pronouns survey for anyone of any gender - about 1,500 responses. :)

https://t.co/3sAPrkIvp2

It could do with more men (especially cis men) participating, and more cis women too, so RTs welcome! It closes on Tuesday.

[Gender Census @gendercensus]

The ninth annual international Gender Census 2022 is now open until 13th August 2022!

https://t.co/0LXDPsNjK3

It's for anyone whose gender (or lack thereof) isn't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and results are useful in academia, business and self-advocacy.

[YouGov @YouGov]

In fact, women are more likely to hold more permissive views on trans issues than men across the board
