This article shows that the NHS has made a deliberate choice to subject trans people to a so-called healthcare programme that is not fit for the first quarter of the 21st Century.
How do we know it’s deliberate? Because they knew ten years ago it was not fit for purpose, but did nothing about it.

17. Professor Zoe Playdon, Emeritus Professor of Medical Humanities, University of London, gave the first talk of the day, with a presentation of what she sees as the cultural and societal journey of transgender and non-binary people so far. (Slides available via webcast at http://www.nhsengland.public-
i.tv/core/portal/webcast interactive/181468).
18. Professor Playdon talked about gender identity services as "an increasingly leaky ship" which had been patched up again and again, and which needed to start anew and be rebuilt. Her presentation also initiated discussion around a couple of topics which were revisited throughout the event - the need to remove psychiatrists as the "gatekeepers" to gender identity services, and the concept of the "narrative"
', and the idea that transgender and non-binary
people have to tell a certain story in order to access services.

i will not allow trans women in mens prison to be discussed without mentioning v-coding and that they have a NAME FOR IT, and that trans women are little rewards for the wardens to hand out.

THEY KNOW WE ARE WOMEN. AND THEY KNOW TRANS WOMEN DIE THERE.

My brother found this in my mums loft. My Dad made it for me as a Halloween costume back in 1982 and it has sat in the same spot since it got put up there after it was worn
