This (about the 'new' Grammarly AI toolset) is absolutely terrifying, not because the tool is good, but because it is an easy, all-in-one, way to avoid thinking any thoughts or doing any work at all *and 3000 universities say its OK to use*.

If you need someone who isn't trans to confirm this, the 20thC has decades of academic research papers with psychiatrists and therapists bemoaning that trans people simply won't stop being trans. Not electric shocks, psychotherapeutic gaslighting, even Exorcism.

perhaps obvious but as trans folks who spent our childhoods closeted will know, alllllllllll the pressure in the world can't change what you *are*.
If kids are allowed to express themselves too young, they might not end up growing up to be cisgender, and we think we might be able to pressure it out of them if we start early, goes the logic. We might be able to put them on the "correct natural trajectory" by inhibiting their preferred expression

Yet Iceland, despite being a smaller country can do this: "They have more patients and about half the staff of the NGS, yet in two years they eliminated their 700 person waiting list. They usually only need 30-45 minutes of assessment, and in their intensive weeks they’d start 30 people on HRT"
Your referral will be old enough to drink by the time the NGS sees you.

The unstated assumption of everything Cass says is that trans outcomes are inferior to cis outcomes. The Cass review was, as @fiercemum.bsky.social observed, cis-supremacist.

This is fucking despicable. They’re copypasting their abuse of trans people onto new targets now (and many of the same targets, given how much overlap there is).
I had to fight for a shared care agreement with the ADHD meds that I fucking need to function. Taking them from anyone is beyond cruel.

Trans people in the UK would be well-advised to get accessible toilet keys. Get them from us and you can:
A) get them for free if you need one
B) pay and keep your money within a community initiative that's doing vital work to build the support framework the trans community desperately needs.

You may laugh, but the Macbeths are a much better role model for a marriage than Romeo and Juliet. They discuss their problems (killing the king of Scotland), share their hobbies (killing the king of Scotland), and resolve their conflicts (by killing the king of Scotland).
