A reminder: "E.U. nations must recognize legal gender changes across bloc, top court rules"

"Gender, like a first name, is a fundamental element of personal identity,” the court said in a news release accompanying its ruling. “A divergence between identities resulting from such a refusal of recognition creates difficulties for a person in proving his or her identity in daily life as well as serious professional, administrative and private inconvenience.”

... The UK is ridiculously out of step (this was back in 2024 btw). A Brexit benefit no doubt ...

"I'm looking forward to growing old as a trans woman. I'm about to start my journey of transition hopefully soon so the idea of aging was scary at first but I am going to embrace the grey hairs and become a silver Vixen!"

"I'm looking forward to growing old as a trans woman."

As a trans woman who has frequent UTIs, I’d find it almost impossible to go out in public in the UK if the proposed EHRC guidance is passed by women and equalities minister Bridget Phillipson.

(Nothing about trans men or non-binary people in yesterday’s Times article.)

Nicola Coughlan Politely Drags JK Rowling to Hell and Back Over Anti-Trans Rant, and Frankly? We Stan. https://iconichipster.com/nicola-coughlan-politely-drags-jk-rowling-to-hell-and-back-over-anti-trans-rant-and-frankly-we-stan/ #JKROwling #NicolaCoughlan #TransRights

I am a pretty cheerful person but watching Democrat leaders (like Buttigieg) turn TERF as fast as they can in a desperate bid for votes, is so morally repugnant. I know there are leaders out there with integrity, but he's not one of them. Worse, he's scaffolding TERF arguments for (soi disant) progressives to use.

There’s a lot of talk about the ‘trans agenda’, but what is it that trans people actually want?

Read about our dream (and our reality): transactual.org.uk/the-dream-vs-reality

What else would you add to the trans agenda?

Note: this resource was written before the Supreme Court ruling, so add item 11: our rights under the Equality Act and GRA fully restored.

The irony of this whole moral panic over M&S bra shopping is I can almost guarantee any trans woman in M&S knows exactly where to find the right bra for anyone. Hell, it's one of the best places to buy bras.

Edit: Apparently this employee was accused of being trans merely for being tall .

"#NewYork opens first-in-nation #homeless #shelter for #transgender people"

#Trans people face heavy #housing and #job #discrimination, this is a huge help

Sometimes I'm angry at my state, "New York you fucking suck!" (if you're not swearing every other word you're not a real knickerbocker- a New Yorker)

But sometimes I'm quite fond of #NY

My country, well we're not going to talk about that right now

I wondered if it might happen eventually, but I didn't have Reform being more left wing than Labour on trans rights JUST yet.

This timeline never ceases to astonish me.

The Trump Administration Is Promoting Its Anti-Trans Agenda Globally at the United Nations

https://www.propublica.org/article/trump-un-anti-trans-agenda

U.S. delegates have objected to use of the word “gender” in U.N. documents during forums on topics as varied as women’s rights, science and technology, global health, toxic pollution and chemical waste.
