Great to speak to @theguardian.com's Rhiannon Cosslett about men, children, and fertility
tl;dr: I think any notion of a fertility 'crisis' is a load of inflammatory, unscientific nonsense 1/3

Let’s stop asking why women aren’t having children and ask, for once: why aren’t men? | Rhiannon Lucy Coslett
On the whole, men I’ve spoken to – like women – want children. But a host of issues, from housing to mental health, is getting in the way, says Guardian columnist Rhiannon Lucy Cosslett

1/ Is population collapsing?
It felt like time to process some of my #demography feelings about recent #population panic.
While demographers don't endorse generational labels (ahem @philipncohen.com),for this GenXer there will always be Princess Bride memes.

Just out! Our peer-reviewed critique of the Cass Review has been published by BMC Medical Research Methodology. Please read and share. We show that the Cass Review is fatally flawed and should not be the basis for policy or practice in transgender healthcare.

Special Issue on "Global Reproductive Justice and Feminist Economics" is IN PRESS!
I learnt so much (as a non-economist, as a scholar) from our incredible contributors & from my enormously talented co-guest editors @lsenderowicz.bsky.social & Prof Sigle (LSE).

To our new followers: we've been organizing for Palestinian families in Gaza since July of this year. We are closing in on 2,000 workshop participants (since we started keeping track). Can you help us achieve our goal this long weekend of 100 new sign-ups? We have 12 workshops and 1 trans. consult ⬇️
