wetgeving a la belge krijgt navolging in het buitenland.
A UK high court decision has implemented a full bathroom ban on trans employees. It does not apply to the public. So a trans woman working at tesco could be fired for using the bathroom at work that would be ok for her to use on her day off. Absurd.

Vandaag een filmpje gezien van iemand autistisch over de 'stugheid' van mensen met autisme.
Wijst er fijntjes op dat onze stugheid over onszelf gaat, en dat sommige niet-autistische mensen ook nogal stug zijn, maar dat het dan over andere mensen gaat. Je mag dit niet, je moet zus, .... blablabla
