FFS. My son was using my Spotify account to play 80s music he thinks is crap. Now when I log in it recommends KENNY LOGGINS. How did this happen to me? What is my Spotify Wrapped going to look like this year?! I'm not happy. (He thinks it's hilarious with his pristine Spotify account over there...)

💯 The health issues it was suggested I might have (what it actually was). Heart failure (perimenopause). Thyroid condition (perimenopause). Cervical/Uterine cancer (perimenopause). Anxiety (perimenopause). Depression (perimenopause).
Exactly this - and, apart from anything else, the anxiety caused by being told you've got heart failure or uterine cancer or whatever every few months is not fucking helping!

This is me. I saw a consultant cardiologist for heart palpitations (they found nothing wrong) and asked if it might be menopause related. I was 45. He said I was too young. 3 months later I was back at my GP for insomnia and another BILLION tests which were all fine. Menopause was never mentioned.
And I don't know of anyone, not one woman among my friends, who was diagnosed with menopause by her GP. I presented with various symptoms for literally years, & all I was offered were emergency scans & biopsies to "rule out" various cancers with no follow-up when those came back negative.

The reaction to women celebrating the For Women Scotland legal victory only serves as a reminder that while the law is the law our culture remains dead-set against women who say no.

Last week’s ruling clarified the legal safeguards of the Equality Act. However, it was a travesty that the battle needed to be fought at all

Now that I've got the Supreme Court post out of the way, let's get to the REALLY IMPORTANT issue. WILL THEY OR WON'T THEY???! omg. I can't bear it! I know they won't, but COME ON! THEY *SHOULD*!!!! (I'm obsessed with Hacks at the moment.)

It's not about victories, it's about establishing that the law cannot contradict a scientific understanding of reality. It's a very good thing to state.
The Supreme Court unanimously rules that “sex” in the Equality Act 2010 refers to biological sex. However, Lord Hodge cautions against seeing this as a victory, and talks repeatedly about the discrimination faced by trans people

Today's UK Supreme Court ruling has made me VERY happy. It's also allowed me to see people here who seem to have wilfully remained ignorant about what the ACTUAL issue has been. It has ALWAYS been about protecting women's rights. If you don't support that, well... bye, I guess...?

I mean... I prefer a curry, a beer and a shag. I'm 55. So maybe it's an age thing. 🤷🏻♀️
I know I've said it before but there is nothing a British woman over the age of around 30ish likes more than a mid-calf patterned dress, no other country in the world has this obsession but here in Britain, the mid-calf patterned dress reigns supreme, I don't understand it at all but here we are
I think it's time for women over 40 to retire floral dress/white trainers/denim jacket/cross-body bag.
