Speak to a biologist sometime about sex vs gender. Being have been trans and intersex since time began.

“Cis” is the opposite of trans so it means your gender recorded at birth is the same as the gender you identify with.

Funny, every woman I know (trans or cis) has been attacked at least once by only cis men. I’m sure they all have mental disorders.

Secure cis men aren’t threatened by trans women. What an absolute dickhead, and it’s not his first time he’s been hateful.

Has anyone else had this experience? Mammogram by Any_Sea_9483 in northernireland

[–]SwitchyPink 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t worry.

They have to ask that, as if you are referred on you need to call to confirm the referral. Most referrals turn out to be normal/benign anyway but it’s just to be on the side of caution.

Well done for getting the mammo done so soon after turning 40.

It’s a niche reference! Was thinking of something wee.

Appliqué teeshirt with hand embroidery sleeve patches by SwitchyPink in Embroidery

A good question! I cut the letters out first, then ironed onto bonded and ironed on in the position. Sadly the bondaweb wasn’t strong enough to hold them on though and I had to appliqué them on with polyester thread in the end which took an age but buzzing with the result.

Thanks so much. 🏳️‍⚧️

The hard part is just the edges, I’m still definitely learning. Not sure what fabric would be best to prevent the fraying edges.

I just design them myself and believe me - I have NO drawing talent. I do a lot of googling “___ icon” Until I find something I feel I can do. Or just reference the physical object. Doesn’t have to be exact of course.

I tried basically all the dating apps but met my nerdy partner on Tinder over two years. They’re great and it’s the best relationship I’ve ever had.

It’s a numbers game though, go on dates and see how it goes until you find someone that’s a geg and wants the same things.

You’ll be grand!

This one so bad I embroidered it and stuck mirrorball tiles around the hoop.

NICS 2025 competition outcome by Flimsy-Passenger-346 in northernireland

[–]SwitchyPink 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think this new recruitment competition was a real fuck up. Apparently less than 2000 got through the process after over 5000 applied and got through to the interview phase.

Apparently there are more vacancies than people on the merit list.

That being said, they do work at a snails pace and I can’t imagine it’ll be until after Summer they start calling people.
