I talked to @nbedera.bsky.social about her devastating research into Title IX offices & new book On the Wrong Side: “There’s this myth men’s lives are ruined when they’re accused of sexual violence—it isn’t just untrue, it becomes justification for giving them benefits to compensate for that."
Not Only Do Campus Sexual Assailants Go Unpunished, They Often Get Special Treatment

It’s genuinely shocking if you’re remotely familiar with the basic facts of trans care and youth medicine.
It is *profoundly* difficult to access gender-affirming care as a minor and the Times has printed more than a dozen articles implying that it is too easy.

in hindsight the NYT anti-trans crusade is one of the most despicable things that any big time journalism outfit in this country has ever done. a perfect and clearly intentional layup for the fascists on the Supreme Court

my latest @teenvogue.bsky.social:
I interviewed trans teens across the U.S.—including L.W., the 16-year-old at the heart of U.S. v. Skrmetti—on their fears and anxieties about the threat of gender-affirming care bans and a looming Trump admin.
"Trans healthcare is suicide prevention, at its core."

Hey all! I started a biomechanics starter pack.
Let me know who I missed so I can add them and follow them myself!
And check in to see who you might want to follow.
