Felt proud that i was brave and went #LondonPride2018 to call out transphobia in the gay community. Such an important message. And very relevant after the TERF protest.
End the silence on transphobia. Call it out.

@BradfemlyWalsh@factualmama Another fun fact is that some studies suggest that ppl with ADHD have lower tolerance to pain! And so those who take stimulants (medication for ADHD) may feel it masks/lessens their pain!
WOW, bombshell criticism of Dr Cass, including the damning revelation that BEFORE she started the review she was opposed to trans healthcare. Recommended a pseudoscientific book full of anti-trans hate and misinformation to colleagues! https://t.co/Ci3Q5sgnQC
The announcement of an NHS review into healthcare for trans adults causes us great concern. We've 'seen how the Cass Review has been misrepresented & misused to severely restrict healthcare for trans young people, even though the review is deeply flawed.

-Caster Semennya was accused of being a man when outperforming a white female

Take what you want from this.
*Single sex spaces" do not keep women safe because:
Most women spend little time in them.
Most are not policed in any way so predators can just walk in.
In the case of those that are -such as prisons - women are still attacked by other (non trans) women.
Femonationalism is the use of supposed threats to "women's rights" to spread hatred against ethnic minorities, particularly Islamophobia.
The huge cross over between anti trans activists and Islamophobes and other racists is not coincidence.

People seemingly only recognise transphobia if it's rude, whereas her "I'd march with you if you were discriminated against" comment was one of the most sneeringly transphobic things I've ever heard because that "if" suggests trans people aren't discriminated against.
@PinkNews GC/transphobes: “Why don’t trans people make stuff for themselves and don’t involve the rest of us?”
Trans people: “Here we’ve made some stuff for ourselves”
GC/transphobes: “How dare you! You disgusting perverts”
