Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Yeah I'm not gonna change what bathroom I go to because a bunch of fascist nonpeople called a sham trial about it.

I went to the women's loos, changing rooms etc. since I DIY'd the very hormones and puberty blockers the papers fearmonger about as a minor and will continue to use women's loos etc. now that I've had the 'permanent irreversible surgery' the public hates so much as an adult.

I had it on the NHS of course, and as a work immigrant from outside of Europe and yes - I paid the double taxes that subsidize the welfare of this sinking hateful little island for years, so I absolutely deserve it and it's just me getting some of my money's worth by accessing the appropriate healthcare for my condition, and now my condition is well treated, almost cured, and I'm doing better than ever.

If you're upset by this - cope and seethe. I'm not going anywhere. I'm a citizen now.

I advise all other trans women to do the same.

If my condition makes me a criminal then I'm a criminal. If this is radical to you, then I'm a radical.

Self-ID was/is supported by ex-Tory MP Theresa May btw. It's fairly common sense. So is NHS funding for healthcare. So is hormones and PBs for minors.

Edit: whoever replied to me, I must've blocked you in a previous thread, unsurprisingly. Doubt I'm missing much.
