I think our session on Effective Consultations for Gender Identity and Sexuality went well.
It was a Q&A based on three clinical scenarios in general practice. I'm an "accidental specialist" in the care of trans people. 😊

On my way to probably the least accessible conference venue I've ever been to that is hosting this year's RCGP conference. ICC Wales, just over 3 and a half miles out of Newport town and off a motorway. There'll be shuttle buses to ferry between between Newport and ICC.

Israel warns the Global Sumud Flotilla carrying aid is "a direct security threat to Israel and its citizens." You feel threatened by bags of rice and bottles of water? Is an actual humanitarian mission a threat?
How other countries let Israel get away with war crimes is a threat to humanity.

The Israeli army doesn't even ask questions, they just kill everyone in Gaza. They are committing genocide. They are worse than Hamas.

The fact that you're coming from a biological essentialism perspective tells me all I need to know about interactions with you, which will be all about bad faith arguments. It's clear you don't or don't want to know anything about gender diversity.

So someone can get arrested for saying genocide of Palestinians has to stop.
