Alice Sullivan tells universities to suppress pro-trans research to protect GC staff. However, HER OWN DATA shows pro-trans research is already more suppressed. When I told the BBC this, they edited out any reference to the data. They have now corrected the record. www.bbc.co.uk/helpandfeedb...

The British press publishes ten transphobic articles a day because it is deeply concerned about violence against women and girls, apparently.

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality. And trans lives are grounded in reality. We see y'all. No matter what. www.popsci.com/science/tran...

After the fall, archeologists are going to find everyone's Warhammer minis, with the badly painted eyes and the too thick paints, and feel that bare plastic and metal are clearly the more correct way to display them.

As usual, @nadiawhittomemp.bsky.social is lightyears ahead of her party on trans rights. Take particular note of her call for "co-production of services with trans people", an extraordinary rebuke of the Cass/Levy regime of contrived authority that has gatekept trans healthcare for decades.

In England the average estimated wait for a first appointment at a gender clinic, is 12 years. And you need at least 2 appointments before they give you a diagnosis or treatment. There’s waiting baked in at every stage, cos the system is designed around limiting access to care not providing it.

Communicating with artists, the more polished your example sketch the more rigid and final your idea will seem. You don't want a detailed, rendered piece of artwork to explain a very open and flexible brief. Draw something rough or scribble on a photograph and trust them to do what they're good at

It is a sign of how fundamentally abused and traumatised trans communities are in the UK that many folks are responding to Levy with relief and cautious welcome. It could have been a lot worse. But it fundamentally fails to deliver meaningful improvements to trans healthcare. 1/4

So everyone is understandably focused on Levy right now but there’s a bunch of other stuff sneaked into the accompanying NHS England letter which I’m gonna flag up 🚩

For too long, trans people have languished on dangerously long waiting lists which, in some cases, now involve more than a decade of waiting for care. Things don’t have to be this way. Read our full statement: tinyurl.com/Levy-initial...
