This is a good time for the reminder that cis people change their names legally all the fucking time and nobody says a peep.

It's not the name changes they have problems with - it's trans people. Period.

Outdated Research On Gender To Be Used In a Planned NHS Pilot Involving Trans Kids NHS Bristol and Weston commisioned a pilot study aimed at trans kids under 10 years of age. The study has been revealed to adopt "extremely dated pieces of work" on gender identity.

"The blog has revealed many concerns about the Pilot. From using research that's 40 plus years old to it risking harm to the children participating in the study."

Resist β€˜dangerous and socially unacceptable’ age checks for social media, scientists warn Computer scientists are campaigning against the global march toward age checks online.

Over 400 scientists have signed a letter calling for a moratorium on the deployment of age-verification technologies. The letter suggests the widespread deployment of untested AV tech is making the internet less safe.

Kansas invalidated a trans woman's license even though she never changed her gender marker.

It's not about the gender marker. It's about targeting trans people and making their lives unlivable.

Democrats Should Launch a β€œNuremberg Caucus” to Investigate the Crimes of the Trump Regime Administration officials and their collaborators must know that if they break the law they will be punished. There must not be impunity for those attacking our democracy.

Literally just gone through all 213 dresses on the Long Tall Sally website and there's not one that's a nice colour or pattern that we like.

They're all so dull. πŸ˜”

I dare you to learn to tie a bow tie.

We managed it once when we dressed up as Doctor Who #11 for Halloween.

Been trying again and it's driving us nuts.

IDK why some trans people feel the need to ask us if we're mtf or ftm and then follow it up by asking us if we're on E yet.

It's unnecessary and really depressing.

PinkNews launches survey on impacts of the Supreme Court's gender ruling LGBTQ+ news publisher PinkNews has launched a survey focused on the impacts of the UK Supreme Court's gender ruling.

"The online survey will run from Monday, 2 March to Monday, 30 March 2026 and aims to gain an insight into demographic data, the single-sex spaces people have been questioned for using and the wider effects of the ruling on people’s day-to-day lives."

Palantir Sues Swiss Magazine For Accurately Reporting That The Swiss Government Didn’t Want Palantir If you run a company whose entire value proposition is the ability to see patterns, predict outcomes, and connect dots that others miss, you’d think someone in the building might have flagged…

"using Palantir’s software would increase dependence on a U.S. provider. It also poses the risk of losing data sovereignty and thereby national sovereignty.

"Above all, however, the army’s staff experts say it remains unclear who has access to data shared with Palantir."

We got asked "Do you ever masturbate while wearing women's clothes" by a guy that wasn't even a gender psych.

AFAIK our GP could have referred us to the Leeds GIC but instead she sent us to a psych at LGI instead.

Maybe she was hoping he'd give us ECT or something.

This is why the fight over puberty blockers was always absurd. They were the compromise to make cis people comfortable. Otherwise, trans youth will just jump to HRT to transition.

Cis people get whatever they want.

When we do it, it's evil.

Just letting you know that there are more people who regret detransisioning than Transisioning. I should know I'm a retransisioned trans bloke who regretted detransising beacuse it made me depressed. πŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈβ™‚οΈ

Social media created this nonsense idea that not exposing yourself to hatred is isolationist. Choosing to not spend your free time with bigots isn’t living in a bubble. I don’t need to know what’s going on at X. I won’t be smarter or more knowledgeable or empathic by being there. Neither will you.
