Gender Construction Kit

The UK guide to changing things linked to gender

[Gender Construction Kit @genderkit]

Hi everyone, it’s a special day for us today. Five years ago, we announced the Gender Construction Kit. The site has kept growing and improving since thanks to the many UK trans, NB, and queer people who have contributed corrections, suggestions, photos, FOIs and articles. 🧵

[Labour For Trans Rights @Lab4TransRights]

We’re asking everybody in the Labour movement - Labour members, CLPs, elected reps, councillors, YL branches, Labour Clubs, TU branches - to sign our open letter to Wes Streeting, showing we’re united in opposition to this retrograde ban 👇 (2/6)

[Gender Census @gendercensus]

The 11th annual international Gender Census 2024 is now open until at least 13th June!

https://t.co/0LXDPsNjK3

It's for anyone whose gender (or lack thereof) isn't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and results are useful in academia, business and self-advocacy.
