What we kinda need is a draft law, I think, that we can shop to MPs. Say hey this is what a coherent trans-inclusive new law would look like, this is what a trans-inclusive addendum to the Equality Act would look like.
I think we need to stake our claim. The dick whisperers certainly are.

as a bisexual man, let me say this: trans people are my people. when you hurt them, you hurt me too
Worth pointing out the biggest supporters of trans people (which is who bigots mean by “gender ideology”) are bisexual & lesbian women. All the public “concerns” about trans people (phase, indoctrination, regret, etc) are recycled forms of homophobia. This is why LGB solidarity with the T is strong.

I feel like belated and really quite lacklustre response to Andy Windsor being a massive nonce bastard is quite indicative of how our society, or rather our Establishment, basically just tolerates pedos and abusive men generally tbh.

Obvs delighted about Prince Andrew losing all his chintzy titles, but when I see or hear his name, I immediately think of Virginia Giuffre and then my mind jolts because I constantly forget she's now dead and how bloody awful that is. Have an incredibly shit rest of your life Andy.

last big family meetup my mum literally got one of these out lmao. everyone thought she's a weirdo (and they're right)
Speaking as a dude who has a yearly family reunion, "aunt" and "uncle" fill a role, what the fuck are you supposed to call all those other older people you're vaguely related to, do you think there's someone running around with an org chart saying who's a second cousin thrice removed or something
lmao
