Left the Other Place: wary of this one becoming an echo chamber, though...
Likes: Portuguese food, English folklore and spooky things, Greek and Cypriot archaeology. Working with my hands: mosaics, jewellery, socks. Occasional Saxon woman (by appointment).
Mmm-hmm. I've seen plenty of trans activist accounts on here happily demonstrating the daft drivel with which they've gleefully filled all the fields on the application forms. False flag?

Oh. Nice. What a delightful movement you appear to be part of.

Thanks for the link - started listening yesterday. The Essex Medical - REALLY strange. Timeslip, abduction, or was he in some sort of fugue state?

Ah all, who needs hot food when you're in the best city in Europe? Happy birthday! Glad it's all back on now though, we were really worried about my very old dad who lives alone there.

... their gender expression, or whether or not they have a DSD. We are all human. What happened at the Supreme Court was a clarification of the law, and of basic biology - no rights have changed and trans people retain the rights under the Equality Act they have had for over 10 years.

... chromosomes. It's this DSD that Caster Semenya has and why she can no longer compete in some athletics competitions in the female categories. It's unfair on a personal basis because nobody chooses to have a DSD, but unfair to ALL women competing.
I don't disrespect anyone merely because of ...

... people. Klinefelter Syndrome, for example, where a boy is born with an extra X (XXY) may result in less testosterone being produced. He is still a boy and will be a man. Another DSD, 46XY 5-ARD, also only occurs with males, and though external genitalia can look very different, they have XY ...

Russ, with respect, I think you need to read about DSDs using decent peer-reviewed sources. DSDs (Disorders of Sexual Development - hardly anyone who has a DSD uses the term 'intersex' now, as it's understandably demeaning)are conditions that affect males or females. They do not create 'intersex'...

I don't think I've ever seen anything quite like the way that rain is rendered on any other Greek pot! Or is this a well-used technique in classical RF pottery? It's so beautiful and delicate.

I do already go out of my way to pick singleton nanas out of the pile, because I remember reading that virtually all of them end up being binned cos nobody picks them. I'm all about the underdog, me!

I said hello to this little piggy, luxuriant on her brown suede bed, this summer!

That little bird almost looks like a watercolour painting - lovely economy of brushwork.

Trying to work out what the play was!

Larry, I love you but please don't put mushroom clouds on my feed. I nearly had to change my pants.
