@rowinggeek @StuntNun @Mary1Eleanor That feeling where another woman would say “you look great in that buy it” …ironically considering their new advertising campaign using it with Gillian Anderson …that is what they have robbed from us!

@sharrond62 @cathydevine56 At junior parkrun the slower (often younger) runners who get lapped are asked to stay out of the way of the faster runners lapping them in case them having to go round means they don’t get a PB! It is 100% a competitive event

@rowinggeek It was the trans (wo)man on this morning that did it for me…with the one bleating on that a trans athlete has never got a medal at an Olympics…like maybe it’s not just just the trans luv…it’s the men too and I think you’ll find in Rio there were whole podiums of them 🙄

[Mara Yamauchi @mara_yamauchi]

I strongly oppose this. It is sex discrimination. Women have to pay if they want to compete at elite level; men can do so for free.

After 15+ years of MALES destroying fairness in female athletics, now this. Wrong decision @BritAthletics. 👎Find the money, fast.

[Louise Ashworth 🦖 🟩⬜️🟪 @Ashworth101]

I can confirm that @marksandspencer are still discriminating against their female customers. Their store in Shoreham-by-sea has a clearly labelled ‘Men’s fitting room’ and a room labelled ‘Try On’ which can be used by women AND men.

@HalifaxBank I’ll just keep trying thank you 👍🏽

[Zara Cottrill @zaracottrill]

@HalifaxBank is the app down again? It’s not letting me login?

Great to see Matt Weston belting out the national anthem on the top of the podium #Skeleton #WinterOlympics #MattSuperWeston

@fatsculler I’m sure you’ve said this before 🤔
I’d hate to see sports like diving, ice dancing and figure skating go. I’ve even found the big air entertaining and how else do you pick a winner without judging?

[Zara Cottrill @zaracottrill]

@fatsculler I love the #Moguls no idea what it is about them 🤷🏽‍♀️ but I absolutely love watching it every time!

[Zara Cottrill @zaracottrill]

@rowinggeek @bencooper I was criticised today for saying please on something I put into an AI generative bot and I was like I always say please and thank you even to Alexa at home so that the children hear me say it and know to use them 🤷🏽‍♀️ I don’t understand not using them

@LwtEmmaBird I’m at the point of having given up being polite about it. I’m amazed how many people are still mentally unwell from it all. We were seated by people in masks at theatre other week, come the interval masks off & offering to share their huge popcorns with us & kids all hands in 🤨

[Women's Rights Network - WRN @WomensRightsNet]

The WRN Red Flag Campaign rolls on in 2026. No males should have access to females changing rooms - it’s the law. Mixed-sex changing rooms are dangerous for women and children. Our latest Leisure Centre Report revealed 16 rapes, 80 sexual assaults, 65 acts of voyeurism in ONE year in 256 leisure centres. There should be ZERO sexual crimes in places we go to enjoy the benefits of getting fit and healthy.

@rowinggeek I had the intention of planting some this year and the seeds…so maybe next Christmas we’ll get to this stage 🤞🏽
I had three cauliflowers…all have been eaten by something 😭
Enjoy & Merry Christmas to you all!

[Coach @rowinggeek]

Andrea Thompson is the rightful winner of World’s Strongest Woman. She’s been denied her title but she 100% wins world’s biggest eye roll…

[Zara Cottrill @zaracottrill]

@rowinggeek Cereal & Toast are the only options Olive ever says she’s had…she does have breakfast at home but for us to work we need her in breakfast club and that comes with her being offered something to eat 🤷🏽‍♀️
Cheerios, shredded wheat, honey Cheerios, Rice Krispies

I don’t care how sad a man feels about the fact he’s not a woman. It’s not my job as a woman to give up my sport to make him feel better.

[Sharron Davies HoL MBE @sharrond62]

Since 2000 world athletics tells us 135 male DSD athletes have stolen places & medals from females in Olympic sport. That’s not including football or boxing. In Rio all the 3 medalists in the women’s 800 were males with a male DSD. A 40yr old, many years retired, trans identifying male displaced a young Māori women from the women weight lifting team. Decades of results shows us repeatedly with the same support, coaching & training males out perform females by 10-30% in Olympic sport. With zero evidence or peer reviewed science the ioc threw away the rights of women to fair sport in 2015, after asking elite females if they wished to keep sex screening & 82% saying yes it was removed for a tiny group of men’s feelings. The contempt the ioc has shown women in women’s sport is astonishingly disgusting. Let’s hope they get it right at last. For 51% of us females who get just 5% of the financial rewards in sport, the very least they can do is keep ALL males out of our category & provide fair sex based sport.

[Zara Cottrill @zaracottrill]

@fatsculler The line in the article about trans women being “forced to race alongside those defined male at birth” 🙄 ridiculous absolute nonsense what are we supposed to believe these trans women were defined as at their births?! 🤷🏽‍♀️
