When I was a kid I always imagined being interviewed by a glossy women’s magazine. While it’s not quite for the reasons I dreamed of, I feel privileged to be able to have the opportunity to raise awareness & help other women struggling today.

@CaraLisette Immediate with my son. I attribute it to genuine shock bc eldest was a surprise pregnancy & I didn’t really allow myself to believe she was real/healthy the whole way through. I now love her so much I didn’t even mind when she almost burned down my house making eggs yesterday.
@CaraLisette 100% I was SO fucking scared when they handed me my daughter & I was like ‘where’s the crazy love?’ I was doped up to my eyeballs on pethidine. Mine came 24hrs later when she wrapped her fingers around mine on the ward. I was like THERE it is thank god.
@scousepie If their practical application of it was useless, that’s down to the individual officers involved. Bad police officers exist - see Sarah Everard’s murder.
@scousepie There’s literally tons of fucking statistical evidence that black people were overwhelmingly racially profiled by the police. It’s the reason the training happened.
@InchOrInfinity Oh my god do I remember the days of weaning. Guidance was 4mths for my eldest. I wore a lot of pureed food that month. I used to leave the house with 3 changes of clothes for both of us.
@nicoleloiseee I know. I used to love A Town Called Hypocrisy but it turns my stomach to hear his voice. I feel for the others in the band if they were unaware of it, discovering someone you’ve known for years is capable of such things & losing your livelihood in one go.
@janepotter1@speakoutsister But if they install hidden cameras how is that reducing risk? You also said women were being voyeuristic in this way. Does that not matter then?
@janepotter1@speakoutsister I go out and show my husband. Not once have I felt unmitigated terror that other men who are also waiting’s eyes have passed over me.
@ladyofcin_1@neon_heartbeat There’s just a never ending list of grievances & I cannot get over the intense level of self involvement to assume that people become trans purely to get their rocks off over hearing them use a bathroom facility.
