Retired genius & broke playgirl. Confident, single/available & woke. I am HPI & HFA apparently, don't like loud noise & crowds. I fix & make stuff. Considered an elder these days at 25y transition, although my mind is still 25, sadly my body is not. 🏳️⚧️ 🏴☠️ UK

I was diagnosed with #HIV in 1998, when I was 30.
Many of my friends had died of AIDS. I did not expect to live to 50.
I’m 58 now.
HIV treatment works.
Treatment also makes it impossible for me to pass HIV on during sex.
Ensure HIV treatment for all.
End HIV stigma.

I have my blood work done twice a year these days. Looks like my blood work needs redoing this time round, how I can go from oestrogen level of 440 to 760 in 6 months on the same dosage level is baffling. By all accounts I should be a tearful wreck while out stealing kittens!

The BBC, quite consciously, sets out to demean and belittle trans people. This is both morally contemptible and in breach of its Charter obligations. We've made it super easy for you to write to the BBC and tell it to stop.

The BBC must stop attacking trans people | Good Law Project
The right wing accusations of ‘pro-trans’ bias are back to front. It’s time for the BBC to live up to its duty to be impartial on trans issues.

Fact Check: No, There Is Not A New Survey Showing Trans Identity Is Decreasing
The claim, which originates from far-right professor Eric Kaufmann, appears to have made a glaring error: the survey actually shows more people have come out, not fewer.
