Cis people, how many times have you been asked to describe how you masturbate, and what you think about when you do, to access healthcare on the NHS?

Remember. We know these drugs are safe. There is no need to do any of this.
The “Pathways” trial is, IMO on more than one level, a thoroughly unethical piece of “research” to be carrying out on children, especially children who are part of a marginalised minority.

I’ve spent a lot of the last three years investigating the rise of anti-trans politics. Often, it came back to the controversy over trans women athletes.
So I teamed up with @pablo.show to look into the leading figure on the issue: Riley Gaines.

A new study has found that abortion restrictions increase the risk of intimate partner violence for women of reproductive age. They looked at travel distances to care, and the farther the distance, the more that IPV risk increased.

100% what happened. The history of anti-trans politics is trying to design a legitimizing study around a conclusion, massaging the data when that doesn't work, and then just giving up and raw-dogging what they were going to do anyway.
Kind of feels like the IOC expected for the study to say "yeah trans women are like the hulk somehow" and when it completely undercut the reasoning behind banning us. They have simply elected to ignore their own work.

Emily Maitlis seems unable to apply the same standard to her (or the media's, more generally) coverage of "trans issues" 🤔
In fact, it's worse than that. Her starting point is simply that healthcare experts are wrong, for #reasons, and she and her fellow GC journos are brave for pointing it out.

The thing these "suck up to everyone except minority groups in case they'll vote for you" people can't seem to understand is that the Democratic party is not weak because of its failure to kiss Nazi ass, it's weak because of its failure to have any principles at all, let alone take a stand on them.

In reality, Catholic hospitals make up as much 46% of options in some states. This map is 2020, prior to Trump’s assault on safety net hospitals.
