Finally, I think it's all starting to hit me. I decided to go swimming today - first non-work thing I've done since the judgment came out - and when I got out of the pool I just started sobbing.
So many people are going to get hurt. And I don't have the power to stop it.

It hurts every time someone suggests unisex or disabled loos as a “solution” to the trans bathroom question as though the idea of our segregation is reasonable

One thing, I do feel allegory is powerful and important, and the X-Men are often (not always) a great example of that. Sometimes, the reader is doing the heavy lifting in this.
It's just that I also feel marginalized people need representation IN CANON and not as robots or aliens sometimes.

Cis women in Ireland need to talk to other cis women in our lives and pour water on the kind of thinly veiled, soft-sounding bigotry that's creeping into people's social media and minds before we fully go the way of the UK. TERFs are claiming to speak FOR us - we need to speak for ourselves. Loudly.

Whatever gender criticals say about trans women, they are certainly doing themselves.

If an MP is doing the rounds insisting that trans women have to use men's toilets, the interviewer needs to be asking what law says so, and what the consequences would be for breaking said law. At the moment what we have is a supreme court ruling and *advice* flowing from that.

If what you're seeing is a lot of angry trans people online, this might be why.
3 years ago, "biological male" was a term of abuse thrown at trans women by anti-trans folk. It first appeared on the BBC in Sept 22 when Ed Davey was interviewed by Justin Webb. Today, that abuse is law.

That’s the choice in parliament:
- open transphobia and hate, or;
- glad handed bullshit covering transphobia
While both are trying to strip away Human Rights and legal protections.

A UK court has made a decision defining genders which has put it at odds with a less noticed, more important, decision from the CJEU. This is the Gist.
