“help combat the rise of gender-neutral toilet spaces”
Yep, that’s the problem right there. Not climate change. Not Israel live streaming a fucking genocide with the support of the West. Not anything else. The rise of gender-neutral toilets is the real threat here, folks. Straight from a conservative’s mouth so you know it must be true.
One from a few years ago for International Women's Day.
I remember the women's pussyhat marches of 2017 as being a bright moment of positive action when positivity was hard to come by, so it seems an appropriate memory with which to say happy International Women's Day to women* everywhere!
And for the avoidance of doubt, if you think you're included in there, you're included in there x

What's amazing about Lou Reed's "Walk on the Wild Side" is that he saw #transwomen as human beings half a century ago and far too many people today infuriatingly don't do that.
Anti-trans extremists and their political supporters have been busy spreading hate for political gain. Their proposals are a blatant attack on trans people, and they put lives at risk.
@annecoombes I haven't got a research link but I've read other research suggesting neurodivergent or autistic people skew towards being assessed as masculine on gender tests regardless of their birth identities.
"Brain Sex" can be an imprecise term for describing how some people think
I feel like the forced birth pipeline starts very early - insisting that girls and women fit into gender norms and prioritize marriage and children above all else. Making them critical of their bodies and appearances to serve this purpose.
I even think transphobia is another manifestation of this - reducing people to their “biological” functions and using that to determine where in the societal hierarchy they fall. The same thing has been done with race time and time again.
This is why you can’t fall for what appear to be academic debates about “when life begins” and “are trans kids in sports getting an unfair advantage.” It’s never about those things at all, and in fact, those are deliberate, reasonable-sounding talking points generated to try to recruit more people to bigotry.
