I want to repeat again among all this trans hysteria: WHAT EXACTLY HAVE TRANS PEOPLE DONE WRONG? Has there been a trans crime wave, a trans Wimbledon winner, a trans terrorist attack? Some kind of atrocity must have happened in the last 4 yrs to provoke law changes - yes?

"If you're under 25 your brain isn't fully developed, so you can't be trusted to make informed decisions"

I'm seeing this a LOT lately, especially today. And it's utter guff, based on hearsay, misunderstandings of neuroscience, or wilful ignorance.

Why? I'll tell you why

I remember waking up after surgery. Finally extubated in the ICU. So incredibly thirsty like I have never been in my life. My nurse brought me a styrofoam cup full of ice and Sprite.

It was the most incredible sensory experience I have been through in my 6+ decades on the planet

To all those again calling for us to leave the ECHR a reminder that during the past 18 months this Government has robbed millions of workers of the right to strike, locked millions out of the electoral process & stripped back our right to protest about it all. Handing our human rights over to this lot would be like handing a kitten over to a hungry crocodile

Love has been criminalised today, as Ghana passes a bill that makes identifying as #LGBTIQ+ illegal.

We mourn for the rights of our LGBTIQ+ siblings in Ghana.

We want to send a message of love to our siblings in #Ghana. You are not alone. You are beautiful. You are loved.

Margaret Hodge tears into Richard Tice(Reform UK);

"Don't interrupt me... you came 3rd in the one election you stood in... & your great, glorious president or whatever you call him, he's had more elections than I've had hot dinners, & lost every single one.. you're no threat."

We shouldn’t have to retrofit #PalliativeCare into the illness journey.

The ethos of this care is holistic, balances quality of life and acknowledges mortality.

This is not a special type of care. It is the foundation of ALL care.

From beginning to end!!

Did you know that the way a woman looks will impact whether her rapist or abuser is found guilty in a courtroom?

This was one of the most depressing findings of my PhD years ago.

Here’s what I learned:

If a woman is raped or abused, and she is seen as unattractive, overweight, gender non-conforming, if she is Black, if she is disabled or in some other way ‘unconventional’ to the white thin het femme norm, she is more likely for her case to be found not guilty or to be dropped.

When jurors and professionals have been asked why this was, they stated that they didn’t believe unattractive women would be raped or abused by men, and that she was probably lying.

HOWEVER - and here’s the fuckin kicker…

If a woman is raped or abused, and she is seen as very attractive, thin, White, or in some other way seen as beautiful… she is also likely for her case to be found not guilty or to be dropped.

When researchers asked jurors and professionals why this happened, they stated that they felt the woman must have led the man on, and it wasn’t his fault that he couldn’t control himself when she was so attractive. They were also more likely to employ rape myths about her wanting it or asking for it.

Worst of all, these findings apply to children: teenage girls.

So the moral of this vile misogynistic story is that:

Women, we can’t win.

They might pretend it’s about our appearance, but either way, we will be blamed and framed as liars. Our bodies will be used against us whether we are size 8 or size 22. It doesn’t matter whether we have long wavy locks or a short crop, it will be used. It doesn’t matter if we were running on a treadmill or we were in our wheelchair, it will be used against us.

This is misogyny. This is the reality of our courts.

This is why we can’t/won’t/don’t prosecute rape of women and girls.

Because no matter what he did, observers always find a way to blame the woman.
