'Why is it inconceivable that sportsmen of all gender identities should play together?' 'In this new renegotiation of rights in public spaces everyone deserves dignity. But now it’s the turn of men to be kind.' www.thetimes.com/comment/colu...

In the gender wars, it’s men’s turn to be kind
Getting males in dresses back into the gents’ toilet is one part of the problem. Sport should welcome them back as well

'Dandelions' Bertha Wegmann 1910. It wasn't an arbitrary choice of a plant to paint: the dandelion was used to promote the women’s liberation movement in Scandinavia because of its capacity for uncontrolled, strong-willed growth. #SistersSalon

Rape, sexual assault, sexual exploitation & coercion is NOT a bad day at the office. It stays with the victim for a lifetime & its harms manifest in ways that no health & safety can protect from. We can only protect women & girls with change culture & ending demand.

Is this just another “feel-good” exercise ... because... if this is truly about accelerating action, then after 17 months of bombing, starvation, and displacement, we should finally hear you stand for Palestinian women. @maryamaldossari.bsky.social www.aljazeera.com/opinions/202...

International Women’s Day is for the few, not the many
Today, there will be an attempt to erase Palestinian women once again because their plight is politically inconvenient.

Leading voices call for decriminalisation of women ending their own pregnancies
The new proposals would bring English and Welsh law in line with Northern Ireland where abortion was fully decriminalised in 2020, and also countries including France and Canada.
