robyneatseverythingDon't read Hadley Freeman's column today: it's hateful, narrow-minded, and *incredibly* transphobic. Although, if you read The Times, you might be into that already.
Rebecca Esther (they/she)I guess that's the difference: for me, men feel like danger and sometimes lead to danger.
Nonbinary people and women feel like a risk worth taking, a risk that sometimes leads to feeling at home.

StephieIt's radical, violent thugs & bigots like Jonny Hone here ( https://www.facebook.com/jonny.hone.5 ) who have been enabled by the supreme court ruling & are actually threatening to unalive trans folk, who are the reason why I myself & so many other trans/non-binary folk are now fearing for our lives....
Our "crime"??? Living our authentic lives as the sex/gender we were always meant to be....

SleepyCattenYesterday, after years of a sustained onslaught by heavily-funded anti-trans and anti-rights lobbying groups, the UK Supreme Court caved to their disformation and hate through an unust ruling that will negative impact many living within the UK 😞
If you are unaware of what happened, are unclear on the details, or perhaps have yet to read anything from a non-anti-trans source, the below explainers may help:
- QueerAF - UK Supreme Court Rules That Trans Women Aren’t Women under the Equality Act 2010
- TransActual
- Reaction post by Ellen Jones with the warning - "Queer people: it's your rights next"
Although the ruling was specifically against trans+ women, it will have far-reaching implications not just for all trans+ and non-binary folks, but for all intersex individuals and gender-non-conforming cis people, such as masculine-presenting or -sounding cis women.
The floodgates are now wide open to further discrimination against anyone who isn't a cishet person who conforms to arbitrary gendered expectations, as well as the further erosion of human rights within the UK 
If you are a trans+ person living in the UK, please, please be kind to yourself. Step away from doomscrolling and prioritise self-care if you can, please 🥺
If you are in contact with anyone in the UK who will be impacted in any way (directly or indirectly) by yesterday's ruling, please, please reach out to them to offer genuine support, kindness, and love 
If you wish to use YouTube, please use an extension like YTBlock to block any anti-trans channels or content. There's a similar extension called uBlacklist, which allows you to block websites in search engine results. Both extensions are compatible with multiple major browsers.
And for anyone who needs someone to tell them what to do right now, your current mission is to survive, even if it's solely out of spite and defiance against tyranny.
Your continued existence is resistance ✊ 
Boosts always welcome

Sparkle - The National Transgender Charity on Instagram: "Statement: Supreme Court Ruling 16th April 2025 Today’s Supreme Court ruling has left many in our community, especially trans women, feeling shaken, dismissed and disheartened. Once again, identity and our bodies, hearts and minds used in basic language and being debated instead of respected, rationalised and upheld. We see the pain and uncertainty this causes, and we hold space for it. Legal definitions may change, but our love, support and recognition of trans women does not. Trans women are women. That truth stands, no matter what. This ruling was made without hearing from a single transgender organisation. Our voices, our lives, and our realities were not represented and that speaks volumes about the harm still embedded in our systems. We see our trans siblings as absolutely valid. We love, respect and uplift trans women and our trans masculine and AFAB siblings. We see you, we love you, and we will fight for you too. If today feels heavy, please remember you are not alone. You are seen, loved and needed. We will continue to stand beside you, fight for justice and build a future where trans lives are celebrated, not questioned. We will with other organisations unpick, note take, challenge and push forward not only the ruling today but also the subsequent changes as and when they come, with absolute conviction. We are voluntary led, and we feel this today as many of you do. So today of all days, be angry, be upset, but be kind to yourself and take up space in the world. *Support Options* Shout: Text SHOUT to 85258 giveusashout.org Switchboard: Call 0800 0119100 switchboard.lgbt Mermaids: Call 0800 801 0400 mermaidsuk.org.uk Samaritans: Call 116 123 samaritans.org The Proud Trust: Live Chat theproudtrust.org *Sparkle Sanctuary* Connect with our wonderful community, and be in a judgement-free, sensory friendly, sober environment.

Today has not been a good day, but we're still here, and we're not planning on going anywhere ✊

You can just imagine them, can't you? Muttering their hateful plans....
"The gays, lesbians & bisexuals have got away with it for long enough.... If we can fool the world & convince them that these transgenders are really deviants, then we'll have a foot in the door at outlawing the LGBs once again!!!"

@annecoombes I haven't got a research link but I've read other research suggesting neurodivergent or autistic people skew towards being assessed as masculine on gender tests regardless of their birth identities.
"Brain Sex" can be an imprecise term for describing how some people think
I'm fine with believing #TransWomenAreWomen, #TransMenAreMen and #NonbinaryPeopleAreValid too
