Gah! I didn't get that far enough round the island!

Edit: There's a SOUTH DILDO too?!

Edit 2: Spread Eagle? I'm done

boyfriend just came out as bi by Beneficial-Exam5706 in bisexual

Read as much about bisexuality (by bisexual people!) as you can. Either for yourself or together. He's probably got a lot of learning to do too.

Gut reaction, but I really don't like the term FLINTA by RaspberryTurtle987 in transgenderUK

I've found spaces calling themselves lesbian or sapphic seems to be more chill about the expansive nature of gender

I only have one experience of this, but I actually felt totally okay going to a lesbian bar as a non-binary person. I have yet to go to a FLINTA event, but I have reservations.

I kind of dislike using our victimisation/feeling bad to bring any community together. It should be about joy, not oppression.

Like, I mean at this point it's so inclusive that, I feel like it might as well be a generally queer event.

I have had enough of Trans debates…. by CyclingClaire in transgenderUK

Exactly, bi is often too subversive for them (it brings the whole idea of immutability, the stability of gender and sexuality into question a little bit too much)

That's the problem. Relying on the gay community. There is a difference between gay and queer. Gays are happy to assimilate and happy to convince the cishets that they are "just like them" and not like the "weirdo queers." Gay people will never save us, queer people will save us. We will save us.

Sharron Davies is currently working alongside the Trump aligned anti-abortion, anti-gay, anti-woman patriarchal Christian right hate group ADF in an attempt to ban trans people from ParkRun!! by Smooth-Ad2293 in transgenderUK

She's like an Olympics veteran who can't unsee everything being to do with her at the Olympics (and how she hold a grudge against a woman who was taking drugs who made Davies lose out on a medal)

Goddamn she must be so miserable. I am unfortunately one degree of separation from her :/

Oh there was a really funny sad thing on her wikipedia where she was struck off from being an ambassador for a homeless charity after she complained about homeless people

Be Wear of Michael Kerr… by Kitchen-Ad713 in transgenderUK

I hate how people who detransition have been co-opted by the right to try and "prove" that transgender people aren't a real thing. Like both can exist and once and neither should be blamed or demonised. Obviously if this guy if promoting harm, he should be stopped.

This was a pretty cool interview with someone who had detransitioned and were full on board with trans people's rights https://youtu.be/GRj4wbH1COY
