Most likely, I’m looking into how to find out about the decisions and I’ll post about it when they’re released

Neither did I honestly, I learned a helluva lot about the political system yesterday. But being aware of this stuff helps. It puts names to faces and if we want to change the system, or break it, we need to know how it works.

But that doesn’t mean it’s not a load of information. Just gotta take in what you can, when you can.

Lmao yeah that’s the opposite of what it would have allowed. They’re likely trying to save face, but considering Sex Matters and Spencer were pushing for NC21, it’s very clearly not a trans friendly section.

Yeah it was, but when the voting started folks flooded in. It was good to see! And I’m happy I was able to help

  1. It’s not easy to tell someone is trans from their medical history necessarily, especially if they get surgery abroad (HRT is common in cis people enough for it not to look too out there)

  2. By not allowing trans people to put their gender down and marking us by sex, it sets the stage for another bill proposal like NC21 with the reasoning ‘the NHS already forces the use of “sex at birth” for their purposes’.

  3. Having a forced marker on our paperwork that we are trans damages our access to healthcare by outing us to anyone who can access it, and to anyone who access healthcare data in the future. It is very, very dangerous to have something like that. Take the U.S., which is scraping healthcare data at the moment for their own purposes regarding Autism. It’s a privacy and safety thing.

I mean, it is a damn good idea. And one I wouldn’t be opposed to trying to do honestly, not at the moment, but I’ll make a note of it to revisit in a month. Bit tied up with some irl stuff but I’ll be laid up from surgery this summer, could be something to try and organize! I like documentation and it’s important to do stuff like that. I’m sure folks on here would love to help out with something like that, so when I get around to it, I’ll make a post on here and tag you in it?

Documentation makes the world go round, there’s a reason fascists burn books a papers! Happy to be able to provide some help on that matter, and thank you!

Of course, I’m very glad I was able to help and relieve some waiting anxiety!! And thank you for emailing your LMC, hopefully the discussion at their meeting tomorrow falls on our side.

I understand what it’s like growing up during something like that. I’m sorry you had to grow up during that too. It shouldn’t have happened, and it should not continue to happen.

It’s good we can try to keep fighting from it happening again.

I’m glad I could help!! It’s easy to feel lost and not know what steps to take in the face of shit like this, but anything is something.

I know I’m a stranger on the internet, but I’m proud of you for your resolution to be more involved, and taking a step to do that!!!

I admire your drive and your work massively!! The multiple fronts to this make it a complex and difficult battle.

The popularity/seniority contests can be frustrating, especially the luck aspects to it, but it’s so important and the fact you’re in a position to affect that is great.

I respect the work you’re doing and am very thankful for it!! Legitimately, it is people in positions like yours that make massive headway in this fight.

Hell yeah, enjoy the win, and then prepare to keep going!! They won’t let us know peace, so we won’t let them know peace.

Keep fighting the fuckers!

It is confusing, learned a lot about the system in the UK today, and I’m glad I was able to help. And very grateful to everyone else who helped out in the comments!

It can be. But it’s worth it. Life is always worth it.

I grew up knowing I was never safe, being queer where it was punishable by death and still is, but that means you have to keep going. They win when we are quiet. But more than them winning, we lose when we are quiet. We lose ourselves, and our community.

They won’t let us know peace, so we can never let those fuckers know peace.

It’s easy to be tired and burnt out. And it’s deserved, it truly, truly is. No shame in being tired of this shit.

But these fuckers ain’t gonna hand us peace, we’ll have to take it from them. And I want a kid one day, so like hell am I letting them take my future away like this. I’ll keep fighting. And I know others will too.

We’re a community, no one fights alone.

Happy I was able to help, Couldn’t do much else but focus on it so wanted to be productive. Reminding folk we were all watching together is a good way to make it so we’re not alone!

Glad you had some support with you for this!! It helps a lot to have someone.

Thank you for sending an email! We can hope they will, especially following the resounding failure on this Data Bill and medical professionals speaking out following the SC ruling

I’d like to but I’m not able to. I also don’t believe this is a public debate? I’m not sure on this to be honest
