Well, that didn't take long - Kezia Dugdale apologises for 'worry, anger and upset' caused by making a balanced comment about JK Rowling. https://t.co/UbqKnwMfJ7

Equality Network and the usual others have published their 'Scottish LGBTQIA+ Manifesto' today and it's as you would expect. The FWS Supreme Court ruling causes 'serious harm and distress', and they want the Scottish Government to sail as close as they can to disregarding it.

'Not in Our Name'/Good Law Project blog here about 'trans inclusive feminism' for LGBT History Month. They write about Camp Trans, which was a protest against the Michigan Womyn's Music Festival.

We stand with the Lesbian Action Group in Australia, as they prepare to go to the Federal Court on 23 and 24 February, on the issue of whether lesbians can have lesbian-only events. Please share information about the case as widely as you can. @ActiveLesbians

If the UN wishes to know about violence and discrimination faced by lesbians, it must start with an accurate definition of 'lesbian'. Our letter to @IESOGI (https://t.co/Nok3sBR6EK)

💜 Here's to 2026. The year we make sure we get our stuff back 💜

[Scottish Lesbians @ScotLesbians]

It’s that time of year, and so we present the Scottish Lesbians 2025 round up thread (warning - will get grumpy).

[Scottish Lesbians @ScotLesbians]

The puberty blocker trial is unethical. There is already a body of evidence about the side effects of puberty blocking drugs. We've written to @wesstreeting about our concerns.

A thread about research.
A YouGov survey from 2023 is often quoted as ‘evidence’ that lesbian groups like ours aren’t representative of lesbians, or don’t have the support of lesbians. You’ve probably seen the graphic below.

The report of our Lesbian Survey 2025 is out now, and the results couldn't be clearer! Lesbians told us they want to see:
- Lesbian-only, single-sex spaces
- Support for younger lesbians
- An end to the promotion of gender ideology in schools, colleges & workplaces

#IsItOk that @TheLastLeg has just celebrated a woman's place being taken by a man at the Paralympics and described it as inclusion? We've turned off now.

It's still #LesbianVisibilityDay! Scottish geography means we don't always get the chance to get together but whenever we do, we like to get photos.

Have you ever felt pressured to hide your sexual orientation in certain social or professional settings?

We hardly know where to begin with the lesbophobia in this one - publicly funded hardcore pornography in Scotland describing itself as a 'raucous communal exploration of dyke sexuality'. https://t.co/aeQwKezxE0
