Nolan's starting to get the full picture now isn't he? This could be a game changer.

'an adolescent girl who liked playing with cars, disliked wearing skirts and suffered anxiety and depression after puberty.' --- I was that girl, as were my sisters and most of my friends.

Not the worst war week but still depressing, particularly ref China and the Netherlands.

I must confess, I've very dark thoughts about m. thompson but shall not share them.

As for s j lowerson's transition, that must have been great for his family. What an twat, and what a weird look. I'm not into facial hair but looking at the before and after pictures I though: never has a face been so in need of a beard.

How can Mat(t) Thompson (they/them) secure such an influential role at GALOP, given he's clearly expressed extremely violent and and disturbing ideas about women? If he'd written that bile about 'trans' rather than 'terf' and published it, he'd be unemployable right now.

Always makes me even more skeptical when countries like Iran and China (historically and one could argue still very restrictive on personal freedoms) are endorsing this ideology. Stemming from homophobia no doubt.

The left and right squabbling over the right to cancel Canada's most famous author could fill its own "A Week in the War on Margaret Atwood" special. Completely understand why you wouldn't mention it this week, you need to understand what the hell is going on first!

Again, it's never parents who celebrate their gay son or lesbian daughter.

Now that they are opening the first Transgender clinic in China it confirms to me what I have recently realised/discovered and that's what they are really doing is opening new "business opportunities" for commercial parties to test their products and procedures but labelling it as "Treating a childs wellbeing"!

It might be time for feminists and feminist groups to start learning how to use and send crypto currency. I started using it because of exactly this kind of censorship by banks and other financial companies. They're too open to pressure from the wokes. Decentralized finance is the way to go if we want to be able to fund our causes and each other.

That story about China opening its first gender clinic isn't true. How can a child access the internet when there is a huge firewall between China and the rest of the world? Chinese leaders like to promote themselves as a progressive super state to fool woke people into thinking they are not oppressive authoritarian capitalist state. China's culture is very strict on gender roles and homosexuality is not even allowed in mainstream media. Let's stop with the fake news.
