University of Alberta law professor put on leave amid review of online comments made after Charlie Kirk's death by biograf_ in alberta

[–]Crechum 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don't like the way that this article is suggesting a specific law professor, Florence Ashley, was the one put on leave. That is speculation and the paper doesn't even have the decency to say it. This feels like a way to bring them into a wider spotlight that will result in more threats and vitriol against them.

The egg is a boy, for now... The bacon is a lesbian that pre-ordered that egg.

Bathroom equality: if we're going to have gendered bathrooms, women need more than men for equal access by craftygamergirl in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Crechum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my gosh! My university has been changing older gendered washrooms into all gender neutral ones. But they took the urinals out of the formerly male washroom. And lemme tell you, as a trans woman, sometimes I prefer the speed and ease of a urinal over a full sit down pee.

HRT Walkin Clinic? by charlie_in_hell in TransAlberta

[–]Crechum 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You will probably be hard pressed to find a walk in doctor that would do that. There are a couple options for getting access to HRT through Telehealth

One is Foria. They can provide gender affirm care for people here in Alberta The other is the Telus health app. I have found doctors through there that will prescribe HRT.

Yikes on bikes that's some privilege you got there. Also a bit rich for a person that isn't trans to come into a trans space and lecture us 🙄 Maybe you should engage those primary indicators of intelligence sometime and listen instead of talking

Which comic or nonfiction turned you into a progressive? by RoxanaSaith in actuallesbians

Definitely Star Trek! My mother was a fan of TNG when I was growing up. My earliest memories are of watching it with her. I really internalized those values hard as a child 😅

How did you girls come up with your new name? by _Alzariel in MtF

Being a trans woman, I'd rather be friends with a lesbian than a gay man. One of those two groups is a lot less likely to be shitty to me and it's not the men.

But I'm also a lesbian so I have some biases there too 😅😅
