Setting up a new female-first lesbian space for LGBTQIA+ and their allies in London. And yes - trans women are women. Looking for humans to help!

[The Hive LGBT+ Centre @TheHiveLGBTFife]

2 years in development and we're so excited to confirm Fife's first dedicated LGBT+ safe sober space is NOW OPEN!
Come visit us at 10 Whytescauseway, Kirkcaldy and see what we've created 🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
Here's a wee preview 👇🏼

@_MarkMcCormack @LgbtqiLDN @FMeasham @UCLurbanlab @BenCampkin Amazing! Thanks!

[TheNotSoSecretLesbian @UnSecretLesbian]

Great to see so many queer spaces popping up or staying open! I recently discovered @QueerSpacesuk too so will be listening to their lovely podcasts soon! Representation and seeing ourselves is so important.

On this historic day, as we stand shoulder to shoulder with our friends at the Gay Liberation Front and celebrate the 50th anniversary of the first Pride march in London, we couldn’t be prouder to announce that we’re now keeping our doors open for five more years!

[Friends of the Joiners Arms @FriendsJoiners]

We did it! We reached our minimum target of £100,000! THANK YOU! Each and everyone of you are incredible and made this happen. (1/4)

[TheNotSoSecretLesbian @UnSecretLesbian]

@elerianona 😔 Did you take photos of them? Or keep them? Please report to the police - the more we report these things the more they are required to investigate and it's seen as a visible issue.

'Hi, I'm Alex, I'm Chinese and I'm adopted and I have two gay moms.' This is so heartwarming.

@LindaRiley8 @UKParliament @HannahB4LiviMP @DIVAmagazine A "wedge of lesbians"! 🤣 I'm thinking "a parliament of OWLs" would be better! (Older Wiser Lesbians! 🦉😍)

[TheNotSoSecretLesbian @UnSecretLesbian]

@gaystheword Thank you Gay Liberation Front. When I was in New Zealand recently I met some truly wonderful people in @lilac_library who told me they had also been in the first marches and part of the early lesbian and gay groups while there were in London in their youth. We owe them a lot.

[TheNotSoSecretLesbian @UnSecretLesbian]

@JasonReidUK @QueerBritain 🤦🏼‍♀️ All of these photos came with a "sensitive" warning! (And that's not the first time this week.) Any reason for this @TwitterSupport? Please don't hide any LGBTQ+ photos in future. We're here and queer and not going anywhere.

[TheNotSoSecretLesbian @UnSecretLesbian]

What a smashing night @thervt and my first @ButchPleaseUK! Beau Jangles 🎩 was absolutely superb with a 1920s style Hot In Here! Such a welcoming vibe too.

[TheNotSoSecretLesbian @UnSecretLesbian]

@elerianona Think you might be able to pay on the door as I asked the same question for yesterday's fabulous Butch Please!

[TheNotSoSecretLesbian @UnSecretLesbian]

We must *all* stand together against injustice: "the fact that the same headlines being used against the gay community in the ’80s are being used against trans people now".

[GAY TIMES @gaytimes]

"Whilst we should rightly celebrate the achievements of the last 50 years, the overturning of Roe v. Wade in America illustrates that equality is not a one-way street." - @LukePollard

[Pride in London @PrideInLondon]

Right now at the Pride In London pop-up shop, don't miss the @rebelbookclub giving out 50 LGBTQ+ nonfiction reads for 50 Yrs of Pride in London!

Find us at 15-17 Fouberts Place, Soho (Just off of Carnaby Street). Open Daily!

[TheNotSoSecretLesbian @UnSecretLesbian]

@thervt Great! I'm glad there's such a demand, though, too!

[TheNotSoSecretLesbian @UnSecretLesbian]

😓 Anyone got a spare ticket or not going to use their ticket for Butch Please! at @thervt for tonight? Or does anyone know if we can queue and pay on the door?

[TheNotSoSecretLesbian @UnSecretLesbian]

Pastor Martin Niemöller's poem after the Second World War should teach us something.

Why do we never learn from history? People are pitted against each other, when the true enemy is hate. We are stronger together. 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️✊🏿♀️🌍

[Scott Cuthbertson @ScotCuthbertson]

Across the planet there is a well funded and organised move to dismantle the hard fought rights of women and LGBT people. In the UK it’s anti-trans, in Eastern Europe it’s the anti-gender movement, in Africa it is vehemently anti-LGBT.

It’s the same movement. You are next.

[London Friend @lgbtfriend]

Drop-in Café is our weekly social group open to all #LGBT people. Come in for a chat and a cuppa! Friday, 11am.

[TheNotSoSecretLesbian @UnSecretLesbian]

@PT_Foundation @dwbullock @OmnibusPress @gaystheword 🤣 This photo came up with a "sensitive nature" warning! How?! And how can I report this ridiculousness?!
