Why did the BBC erase Bethany’s “Protect The Dolls” T-shirt on Strictly?.. Maybe because JKR’s ‘gender critical’ transphobic friends are installed at the highest level? 🤔🤔🤔 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

Since the author, J.K. Rowling, posted images of me on 11/07/26, which aligned me with sexually offensive behaviours, I have been forced to retreat from some social media platforms. I have had threats of harm, body shaming, my previous identity revealed, and several abusive direct messages.

I don't think we should mince words. Transphobia and hatred killed May Pollard. The Idaho legislature killed her as surely as if they'd pointed a gun at her head and pulled the trigger. Anti-trans laws were the gun. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...
nbcnews.com
Idaho pushed anti-trans laws for years. Then a teen died.
The life and death of May Pollard, 16, provides a window into the tragic effect that legislation and political rhetoric have had on trans people in America.

Yesterday I took part in a die-in with other trans + people in the centre of Inverness. We were protesting the harm caused to trans + people by the UK Government’s anti-trans legislation and rhetoric.
People playing dead on the groud with other people looking on.

This is exactly why we have Pride. Because a few years ago this would have just been a hateful fringe figure - but this is where our politics is heading with a Government that kertows. We will resist. And bring hope (*and* electing progressive politicians.) We will win. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

The idea that trans women safely flew under the cultural radar until Visibility Discourse is so aggressively ahistorical. You cannot find a mainstream comedy made before 2010 that doesn't have at least one throwaway transphobic joke. In many cases, it's a running gag or a whole cruel plot point.

Hockey Night in Canada has been a rental space for some time, but it was still Hockey Night in Canada in terms of reach, and for the most part, in tone. The death of HNIC was inevitable as soon as the big telecoms going into sports broadcasting: the money was too big. But it's a true national shame.
