A rare bit of sense. In his ruling, Judge Mark Sutherland said the toilet policy was a "proportionate means of achieving a legitimate aim" to create an inclusive workplace environment for trans staff.

Girl Guides yesterday. WI today. You are watching the erasure of anyone who does not confirm to a gender binary. There is worse to come. It is time to show solidarity and to challenge this regressive set of science denying ideas.

Guardian writers campaigned against puberty-blockers because they were prescribed "off label".

Now the Guardian is celebrating Ozempic, a drug being used off label for obesity.

The difference...?

Puberty-blockers have been used for trans kids for 30+ years, Ozempic for obesity only for 4 years.

Sharron Davies & Co all advocated and made rules for sports that banned trans girls that experienced a male puberty

Now they want to force these trans girls to experience a male puberty

So in essence they can’t win, as it’s a catch 22

On TDOR, we share the names of just a number of the 281 trans people murdered in the past year. Most were Black and Brown trans women. Activists are being targeted too. We come together in grief and care, and keep pushing for a world where trans lives are safe and full of joy. @tgeuorg.bsky.social

This #TransgenderDayOfRememberance, we remember the over 280 trans people killed globally this year and the many more lost to suicide.

They deserved to live safely, without fear, and to be fully who they are.

May their memories move us to keep fighting for a world where all trans people are free.
