EU Parliament voted 340 to 141 to accept a report that calls for the full recognition of trans women as women. Cos no matter how shitty the UK is, the world isn't as transphobic as transphobes think. This along with Australia recognising you can change sex last week.

British television presenter Kirstie Allsopp didn’t mince words when she called for trans acceptance in a 21 January post on her X account. The ‘Love It or List It UK’ star wrote “Somehow, at some point in the last few years it has become acceptable to publicly mock trans people. This isn’t about vulnerable women’s spaces, or women’s sport, it’s about delighting in declaring your disgust for a tiny minority of other humans and it has to stop.” 📷 Getty

The numbers are out.. Girls sexually assaulted by transgender people in UK toilets: 0. Women and girls sexually assaulted by men in the UK every year: over 160,000. (Source: ONS, Crime Survey for England and Wales) So why are we still letting bigots spread fear about the wrong people? Why is anyone more outraged by a trans woman washing her hands than by the fact a woman is raped every five minutes in this country? It’s not about safety. It never was. It’s about control. It’s about hatred. It’s about distraction. These people don’t want to protect anyone. They want someone to punish. We see it. Trans people are not going anywhere.

People really need to chill out when it comes to trans women in sports. You all act as if we are dominating every sport and "stealing medals and scholarships" Shut up already. People are sick of hearing about it. There are no trans Olympians, that i know of at least currently competing. 11 NCAA athletes, none of which were awarded a scholarship. Most of the time you all are panicking over some 11th grader in soccer or softball. Just let the kids fucking play with their friends. And dont come at me about me competing in rec league basketball or being asked to tryout for a women's team. If their rules allow trans women, then fucking let them. I get possible restrictions at the highest of competition but arguing for amateurs to be excluded is so dumb. Im 34 years old, and 5'8". Im not dominating any sport that I play in. Its for fun and social connection.

✨New✨ Nicola Coughlan congratulates Mermaids, a charity supporting trans children and young people and their families, on their 30th anniversary 🧜‍♀️

"I've taken a lot of flack from Terfs, i don't really don't give a shit. You're trying to deny someone's right to exist I'm just on the side supporting you. But if i was a member of the trans community i can't imagine the pain of having to justify your existence" -Nicola Coughlan

Centre right Irish political party which is only hundreds of miles from the UK … Millions of times more progressive than 95% of the UK political spectrum. One day, long from now, we will see the same here.
