@ThatAnni@canthelpmenow7 It’s a blanket over my lap, not my head? Literally just giving me something to cover myself so I’m not hanging out like Winnie the Pooh, not a full curtain setup like for a c-section
@Drawings_by_K@eva_kurilova Sigh, no. We don’t like it when we can see their testicles dangling out from a mini skirt, or their erection in the ladies loos. Much like my children, as long as what you’re wearing is appropriate for the situation and the weather, take whatever fashion choices you like
@jan_murray@Lauralols My eldest was *very* clear that my ex’s chest was not an acceptable substitute while I was in recovery. He preferred the goldfish bowl until I’d regained use of my legs and was let down to see him
@SexMattersOrg@nickwallis trans people and allies, and TWAW might offend the GC people
J - please can we tone down the language and ask the point in a respectful way, you can't say 'its just a matter of hairstyle
NC I am at a loss to know how to phrase my questions
It's always interesting to watch someone try to dodge this question; this one is especially fascinating because @22_Gilly claims to care very, very much about Safeguarding, yet cannot (or will not) tell us whether male adults should have access to female communal changing rooms.
@ThatAnni@canthelpmenow7 No cabin where I’ve been - you go in the room, they either pull a curtain or turn their back and busy themselves on the other side of the room while you undress, then you hope up on the bed and drape the blanket/sheet over your legs and they do what they do. Same after.
@Drawings_by_K@eva_kurilova Saying that you can only wear certain fashions because of your sex is so regressive! Throw off your gender conforming chains! Wear whatever the hell you like, and be assured your sex will remain as it was at conception.
@ThatAnni@canthelpmenow7 I’ve always had a blanket, and they’ve always given me privacy to dress and undress. In 4 different countries. Dunno where you’re going, but it’s not my experience at all.
@canthelpmenow7 I had both mammogram and ecg recently, and the nurse/radiographer/whatever was brilliant in each case. Super awkward, given as much dignity as possible, and somehow was simultaneously super-professional and still engaging to keep me distracted and as comfortable as possible
@LSynnove@criaan@jk_rowling Sure, but it doesn’t apply to most people - in fact I can’t think of any 100%feminine women. If you want to use a modifier for me, you can use ‘real’ or ‘actual’
@jk_rowling A good outcome was when I helped save a young woman. I saw she had collapsed and had stopped breathing. Obviously this was in a single sex toilet because she was inside her cubicle, and door gaps are only permitted in a single sex environment. That single sex space saved her life
@lillybilly299@estherzelda0514@MariGO2thepolls There is plenty of data showing that women are more likely to sustain serious injury, and there is data on the sizes the seatbelts etc are designed for. 5’ tall women like me do not fair well in that data (booster seat would mean I can’t reach pedals though)
I have said this 1000 times before and I’m going to say it again.
Surgeons are not gods.
A vagina is a female organ. Doctors do not have the ability to create a human organ from a different human organ. It’s not possible. If it was, there would be no need for an organ donor registry.
Taking the tissue of one organ and cutting it and repositioning it to appear like another does not magically change one organ to another.
Human organs have both structural and functional characteristics. You can do your best to mutilate one to appear as the other, but it will never function because it is not the real thing.
Stop entertaining this bullshit.
I am having a drink this evening with a friend in a Chiswick pub. Two policemen have just come into the pub and asked me to step outside. I have stepped outside and they have threatened me because I tweeted about a councillor banning seating outside pubs in Chiswick. They admit on video (watch it!) that I did not break the law at all. They came to threaten me. To warn me off tweeting about councillors and the council. This is modern Britain. This is the police state. Please, please, please watch this video. It does involve me using very bad language, but this has got to be seen. Police coming out to threaten someone who hasn’t committed a crime. I’m fuming.
'Vulnerable women now face prosecution for the ‘crime’ of failing financially to support a transitioning male partner or address that person by their new preferred female name, i.e. not conforming with their partner’s demands' ...
This is a staggering demand from the Judge. The word ‘transwoman’ also has connotations. How dare this moronic he/him force Naomi use terminology which neuters her arguments. This is disgraceful bias that risks undermining the entire case
Six of these ten Highland Councillors voted to allow a taxi driver who raped a passenger to keep his operator’s license — even though senior police officers urged them not to.
Please note that although we’re constantly told it’s women who grease the wheels for rapists, every single councillor who voted in rapist David Brown’s favor is a man. Take a good look at them, Scottish women: these 6 men would put you, alone and unwarned, in a taxi with a man who has already raped at least one passenger.
Brown has been put on the register for life; he raped an 18 year old girl and dumped her outdoors on a sub-zero January night in the Scottish Highlands; but these 6 men - Chris Birt, John Grafton, Ruraidh Stewart, Sean Kennedy, Willy MacKay, and Duncan MacPherson - are more concerned about his finances than they are about the safety of local women.
