For me, I ask if someone wants to trade, show them what I have, and see what they are willing to offer me to trade. That way it feels fair, and usually the vendor lets you pick out of a few options! And also being respectful and backing off when people say no

Service providers will be told to ask for birth certificates and interrogate service users to discover their "biological sex".

The guidance also ban trans men from female toilets on the basis that their presence would cause "alarm or distress".

Illustration advertising a demonstration on August 16th at 11am in Bonn Sq. Oxford. The poster reads "JOIN OUR DEMO" in large, colorful lettering. The word "DEMO" is filled with the colors of the transgender pride flag. Below, it reads "August 16th 11am Bonn Sq. Oxford." Further down, it says "Stand up against the damaging and transphobic new school RSHE Guidance." A brown sign reads "SECTION 28." Below that, in a circle, is the fraction "28 3/4". An arrow points to the right, with the words "more like Really Stupid Harmful Erasure." In the lower right corner is a logo that reads "OXFORD FOR TRANS RIGHTS" in a circle around an otter holding a transgender pride flag. The background is light orange with doodles of hearts, gender symbols, and the letters "TKDB!".
