So when men get raped by other men, it turns them into women? So Thomas, that’s the type of detrimental bullshit that has kept so many men and boys silent about being sexually abused by other men.. assholes like you emasculated them for being assaulted. You really are a disaster .. just shut your moronic mouth why don’t you..

Four years of courage and determination. Four years of defending their homeland, democracy and the rest of Europe from Putin's fascist regime. Four years of loss and pain. I salute the Ukrainian people.

Nothing says "board of peace" like having two founding members not show up to the signing ceremony because they would be arrested at the airport for war crimes.

“Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace…” In 60 years’ reporting, I’ve never seen a message like Trump’s to Norway’s PM. We’ve left the realm of diplomacy for somewhere far more disturbing.

If you claim that a woman is someone who can give birth, menstruate, get pregnant then you’re saying that anyone who can’t isn’t a woman because your basis for womanhood is the ability to have children. 🤷🏻‍♀️

@PinkNews Ironic headline: this “debunking” repeats claims no major review supports. NICE, Cass & others say evidence for blockers is low certainty with real risks and big unknowns. Kids deserve care, but also honesty, not pretending the science is settled.

@AidanCTweets Wouldn’t you like this to be true? It would reinforce your childish view of a world in which there is no complexity or nuance. Unfortunately for you though it isn’t true.

If you check the accounts of the vast majority of the people who against puberty blockers for trans kids you'll find that they are absolutely fine with incinerating kids in Gaza.

I wrote about trans activism. How it went wrong. How it turned public opinion against trans people. And how we can build a more philosophically liberal and effective version where radicals have failed. In @QueerMajority: queermajority.com/essays-all/how…

It seems to me that the TERFs are rattled. Their Supreme Court silver bullet isn’t quite the final solution for trans people that they were hoping. Now they’re on the defense, clearly misrepresenting the judgment and the impact it has on trans rights.

What this underlines is that the LGBT community, despite significant well-funded efforts to split us, remains undivided. There is no LGB without the T. Transphobes will never be accepted, no matter what they brand themselves. People power has forced Polari to have a conscience.

@ThomasWillett9 Oh my @ThomasWillett9 you are so repetitively boring. Of course trans people exist. Bev makes no attempt to deny that. Their existence is quite separate from a set of authoritarian and ideological beliefs (held by some trans people and some non trans people)

Trans people exist. Fact. To deny this is to deny reality. Framing trans identities as an ideology or religion is a deliberate tactic to dehumanise them, making it easier to justify stripping away their rights. The same was once said about LGB people that it was a “choice”.
Bev Jackson@BevJacksonAuth

Once belief in gender identity is understood as a religion, it is easier to appreciate why Naomi Cunningham says that in referring to Dr Upton as a man, Sandie Peggie was/is seen as a “heretic”. Excellent essay explaining why this belief is rightly described as a religion in the link.👇

@British_Airways Thanks. I went through the whole process on the DM of identifying myself to get a message that the response could take several days. What a joke.

@British_Airways Wait on hold for ages, given incorrect information by the phone agent, he agrees to get manager, wait for another 20 minutes and then the line goes dead. Thanks for the great service!
