Quick reminder from a pediatrician that 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and 17 year old girls are not young women. They’re children. I only care for children and my patients are those ages. Stop trying to make it better by calling them young women. They aren’t.

When I was young, my Auntie Annie would tell me tales of her cousin Ivy, who played in an all-women's band. I never met Ivy, and her side of the family remained a mythical branch located far away on the other side of the Pennines. A few years ago, I received a box of old family photographs from someone who traced me through Ancestry, and there amongst them was a picture of Ivy (second from left) and her Celebrity Ladies Orchestra.

They say “just put the baby up for adoption.” Like pregnancy isn’t nine months of medical risk. Like childbirth isn’t trauma. Like bodies are rental property. Women aren’t incubators with paperwork.

No explanation of freeze response was presented to the jury, the defence exploited this gap ruthlessly.

Heartbroken by the Rochdale acquittal. That 13-year-old froze in pure panic during the attack — exactly the trauma response so many survivors know too well. It’s called tonic immobility: your body shuts down, you “leave” yourself, you can’t scream even when help is close. That doesn’t mean consent. This verdict isn’t justice. We’re sliding backwards on understanding rape, consent, and how fear actually works. The system failed her. Every survivor deserves better.  #RapeMyths #BelieveSurvivors #TonicImmobility @Wommando @WomensRightsNet @DrPamSpurr

Sean McInnes, the coward, could have killed her, just because she said no to him. Thank you for spreading awareness, just like @leahmccourtmma, about the violent men who exist in the MMA community.

This is MMA fighter Sean McInnes. When Anne Marie Boyle asked him to leave her alone, he punched her in the face so hard that he broke her cheekbone and her eye socket, knocked her unconscious, and left her with a life-altering brain injury. He was given less than two years behind bars. It would be a real shame if this post was widely circulated and impacted his career in a negative way.

My coworker used to take the long way home every night. Two extra bus stops, more walking, more money, more time. One day I asked her why she didn’t just take the shortcut alley behind our building. She laughed and said, “Oh, because a guy followed me there once and told me he could ‘do whatever he wanted’ and no one would hear me scream.” So now, every night, she calls a male friend and pretends she’s on the phone with her “boyfriend.” Sometimes she even laughs loudly and says things like, “Yeah, I’ll see you in five minutes, babe,” even when she’s completely alone. Not because she wants attention. Not because she’s dramatic. Because sounding “taken” and “protected” is safer than sounding like a woman by herself. Men cannot even begin to understand the calculations women make every day just to get home alive.

Poverty is a primary driver of prostitution, acting as a survival strategy for individuals—disproportionately women, ethnic minorities, and youth—facing extreme economic hardship, lack of opportunities, and marginalization. It is often described as "survival sex" where income needs take precedence, rather than a free choice, making it a consequence of structural inequalities.
The Economist@TheEconomist

Sex work is hard for economists to study. It covers all manner of X-rated activities and facts and figures can be scarce. But the internet is making the job easier economist.com/finance-and-ec…

Over the years, I’ve heard from several teachers who spotted signs of schoolgirls who were about to be taken abroad for forced marriages or FGM. They reported their concerns and in some cases saved these girls from terrible fates. Most of these girls belonged to immigrant families from the Islamic world because that’s where these practices are most prevalent. One of my concerns about the government’s proposed Islamophobia/“anti-Muslim hatred” definition is that teachers and social workers will no longer be able to help these girls. Reporting the signs could be seen as “anti-Muslim hatred”. There’s nothing kind or progressive about making protecting girls from abuse a political minefield.

That’s nonsense because many of the people who get what he calls welfare do in fact Work. And much of this total is paid to pensioners in return for their national insurance and they would certainly not consider it welfare. But it’s fake statistics like these that can influence peoples beliefs.
Matthew Elliott@matthew_elliott

The Government will collect £331bn in income tax this year, and spend £333bn on welfare. In other words, we now spend more on people not working than we raise from those who do. And the cost? Debt per person has risen from £11.5k in 2000 (inflation adjusted) to over £41k today.

Why do rich people always fundraise by asking poorer people to donate to charity? Perhaps if you paid your taxes and paid workers a real living wage there would be less need for charity.
