My thoughts. I don’t know you, but I think you deep down I think you think you deserved whatever it was. You don’t.

Love the person this has made you. Not the person/people/circs that caused it.

You seem pretty resilient and decent. Many people aren’t.

Follow up question: do you have a limit of letting people know enough to empathise/sympathise, without baring your whole soul?

I locked mine. But it’s now unlocked, so you might want to check.

Is it important to you that people understand?

Please feel free to ignore the question. Sort of goes without saying, but…

When you put it like that… It must have felt really good post WWII when they set up NHS and welfare. Since then…meh

Trans women are women. I know there was one case of a man who pretended, but that’s not representative.

Dry would have fought for their safety in the prison system. In fact, that’s now the job of the prison service.

That you call trans women men is very telling.

I should do that. I prefer green places with woods and wildlife. But fish and chips by the beach sounds good too 😊

Exactly, most of us have never had a problem and have lost no rights.

I think my car may be a hypochondriac. Engine light came on. Diagnostics is showing sensor error. But when driven with diagnostic, it’s all ok. Is she just sulking because I don’t drive her enough?

I can see from all the responses and likes you’ve had, that it’s entirely my fault.

Reality is, there has never been a law about which loo to use. And there’s never been an issue. And now trans men can’t use the men’s or the women’s. So if there are no gender neutral loos, they can’t go anywhere, maybe even including work.

What the hell was all that about. Trans people have existed as long as humans. This is not new. There isn’t an issue and there never has been.

Trans women are women and there’s never been a problem with loos. Until bigots started making it a problem.

I wonder what people would think if it was black people, or Jewish, or Irish being excluded…

Well, we’ll all be able to read the court transcripts of their cases right? Right?

That’s sort of how I do cryptic crosswords.

Me upper Palaeolithic (and today tbh)

Upper Palaeolithic carving of woman with breasts and tummy. No face shown.

He really is focused on genitals isn’t he. Not on human beings.

I’m beginning to think reform will eat themselves from the inside. How long do we think they will last? Or is that wishful thinking?

If we saw a photo of a good elderly person, we wouldn’t think this. He’s ugly because he’s an ugly person. It’s not about his outside looks.
