My husband has taught human reproduction and development to the Cambridge medics for over three decades. When people start banging on about "only two biological sexes" he starts with "which sex: genetic, hormonal, or gonadal"?

Biological sex is not binary. www.scientificamerican.com/article/sex-...
Sex Redefined: The Idea of 2 Sexes Is Overly Simplistic
Biologists now think there is a larger spectrum than just binary female and male

I thought I'd resolved all of my geography issues when I learnt that Cumbria is not next to Cornwall (in my 20s).

However I have now learnt where Greenland and Iceland are, and it's not where I have assumed (for 30+yrs).

Concerned for what geographical revelations lie ahead in my 40s.

I am trying to find a constructive way to say 'did you not learn about the 30s' (or develop any understanding of art history)

need to get that list of acts playing the inauguration so I know who to block on Spotify, but don't want my search history to think I'm searching in a way that I ever want the results again.

truly a conundrum

The thing is, if there was anything like a thoughtful, engage feminist movement, but for men, this could be the start of an interesting & valuable conversation about inter-generational trauma in men, & grandfathers passing this war-terror down the line. Instead, it's just used to be a dick to women.

Poverty is a tool of coercion and control. An impoverished and defeated population keeps the rich at the top. The struggle to exist day to day extinguishes the struggle to resist what’s keeping you there. They’ll feed you enough that you’ll thank them; never enough that you’ll look for more.

tax the rich.
Lord Swraj Paul, Britain's 38th richest person, has claimed just over £100,000 for 314 days’ attendance in the House of Lords.

In that time he has not spoken in the chamber, submitted a written question or sat on any select committees.
