Mostly here for the great photographers and artists of wildlife, birds, and landscapes. Also, for occasional politics and feminism. Blue side of Manchester. Realist side of sex.

10.10 is biological women's day, not that I should have to qualify "women" as biological but here we are, still resisting men's insistence that they're women etc. Anyway, XX, or 10th October is the day we wear red, see red and be red. I have my outfit organised.

Ebba Lund (b. #OTD in 1923) was an extraordinary Danish chemical engineer, microbiologist & virologist who lived two distinct lives. Before becoming a towering figure in European #science, she was a fearless #WWII resistance fighter who personally saved hundreds of lives. 🧵 #WomenInSTEM
A close-up, black-and-white Photograph of Ebba Lund (1923–1999), the heroic Danish World War II resistance fighter, chemical engineer, and pioneering microbiologist. Lund is framed centrally against a dark, indistinct background. Her face is illuminated by a warm, genuine smile. Her short, textured, light hair is styled in a casual, piecey crop with soft bangs sweeping across her forehead. She is dressed in a cozy, dark-toned high-neck sweater or turtleneck layered under a thick, textured, knit or crocheted outer garment. The tight composition focuses entirely on her expressive, joyful face, evoking an intimate, friendly, and deeply resilient mood. This portrait carries profound historical significance; it presents the approachable visage of the legendary "Girl with the Red Beret" before pioneering crucial scientific frameworks in environmental virology to track and curb global polio epidemics.

So men sabotaged women’s toilets in 1905 and now they’re fighting to amend the law so they can do it lawfully. They really don’t evolve do they.

Quick feminist analysis. Q: Does the motion acknowledge women's legal & human rights to equality? A: No. Q. Does the motion benefit males or females? A: Primarily males at the expense of females. Conclusion: motion reinforces power relations between the sexes. This is patriarchy.

It had nothing to do with councils. The case was about the Equality Act which covers any space or service organised on the basis of sex. That includes toilets. Get the basics right.

'Using a real history of gay pain to prosecute parents is a misuse of the criminal law and a misuse of our history. This bill (Draft Conversion Practices Bill) exploits gay rights to smuggle in contested identity concepts into criminal law.'

Frankly, we think her "feminism" was undermined when she refused to say that a double rapist was a man. But then we aren't all about superficial posing.

But will his daughter will agree? Or 'live with it'? Why should girls & women be OK with coming second to males in women's sport? But yes, carry on, two blokes talking about women's sport. Nobody checks genitalia. Everyone knows their sex. Female people are entitled to equal human rights.

Frank has laudable concerns. At the same time he can’t resist positing that the obvious unfairness that allows biological men into women’s sports is a petty cultural war. It’s almost as if women don’t have to deal with both problems at the same time.

Men who claim to be women are not oppressed or marginalised. They are using ideologically captured institutions to have power over women & punish anyone who steps out of line by saying “no”. I stand with Kirralie Smith.
