Please take time this weekend to watch Abi’s video on the history of conversion practices, and why the UK will fail to ban it because the NHS is complicit in it.
It is not heavy going and does feature a chicken 🐓

Advice for staying in the hospital for a week
Call to action to cis people: be assholes anytime you get asked for your sex assigned at birth. Write letters, complain to staff, refuse to answer. Make it impossible to collect sex assigned at birth. Be really offended that anyone would ask you. Make enough noise that if trans people want to quietly not answer or give whatever answer feels correct to them, no one will notice.
A new report from TransActual shows that trans people in the UK are being catastrophically failed.

I often see people posting Nikita Gill poems here, so let me share a little story.
Her poem ‘For Her’ is one of my favourites, and I told her that it can always bring me to tears, and I realise she didn’t have women like me in mind when she wrote it (as I’m trans), but I hope she didn’t mind me seeing myself in it and sharing the experience.
Her reply: “I wrote this for all women, so this poem is absolutely for you!” 🥹
I was at a queer social recently and a girl told me “it’s so great to see elder queers on the scene” and I’ve never had such a backhanded compliment.
Still snogged her though. 💅
