This photo fascinates me and I finally figured out why
A woman is going to have to be killed before this man wakes up
I don’t know how Andy isn’t losing the will to live by now. Latest in his exchange with the reckless Aaron.
Well, tie me to a radiator if Marilyn didn’t win this round
Typing so furiously that autocorrect couldn’t catch up to ‘category’ in time, Marilyn continues to shine while George grows ever dimmer.
You should join Noom
…just to complain about these emails.
Boots openly lying to its customers
I think this is an old story, but have Boots stopped using this much-debunked study?
More trouble at Rape Crisis Scotland
The BPS is asbolutely lost
The British Psychological Society is normalising the use of ‘slut’ to refer to patients. Here’s StillTish’s investigation series on how the organisation fell for Queer Theory. (By the way, please consider donating to thank Tish for her hard work on this. Her research is beginning to get wider recognition and she’s being doing it without reward under difficult circumstances for years now. You can donate to her here!
She just never stops being amazing
If I was a woman, I’d be smashing in windows
Let’s keep complicating medical language because women are doing so great
This is a great catch
Also, thanks to Wes and the BBC for claiming there’s a “both sides” in the battle against men posting porn under JK Rowling’s tweets for children, men harassing lesbians for sex, men identifying into women’s shelters, women’s prisons and women’s sports, men abusing women online and men using UK police to silence anyone talking about it. “Both sides”, my arse. You might as well say it of Jimmy Savile and the older nurses who tried to stop him.
There needs to be a major reorientation of the biases in this debate. Women are owed an apology, not a comparison with an activism that is pure misogyny.
This attempted shaming of women by implying, and outright saying, we're creepy for wanting to look at genitals to determine a person's sex, is a new low in trying to break down our boundaries. The male tactic of shaming women in some way in order to break down our boundaries is nothing new, but this one of saying women are creepy because we want to inspect genitals - which we never said - is a new 'pond-scum' low. Genitals are one way of determining sex, but there are many more visual clues than that which we use to ascertain a person's sex. No, there are no rules about how we do that, so it's totally and entirely allowable for it to be up to our senses to determine. That's what we will continue to use, even if we get it wrong on rare occasions, which don't disprove the 99% of the time we get it right. So, suck it up you TRAs and MRAs - or just stay the feck out of women's spaces. That's what decent men do, whether they're in a dress or not. Only those who have messed up minds think otherwise.
I think StillTish is an amazing, amazing woman and will be glad to donate.
And Baroness Nicholson has been a great support to me - endlessly curious and willing to accept all the bumf I have sent to her. She has got things moving in the Lords and I have no doubt is working away amongst MPs to try and build cross-party solidarity. Always so damned decent in the way she speaks to people. Don't swear though!
