Men: “I respect women.”
Also men:
• “I approached her respectfully.”
• “I came at her like a gentleman.”
• “I wasn't rude when I walked up.”
Respect isn't expecting something back for showing a woman basic decency.
Respect means being decent without expecting anything at all.

Please can you add auto captions/subtitles on videos.
A written poster saying "Deaf people requesting captions is equivalent of hearing people requesting audio. Imagine being denied access to audio everytime, everywhere"

Lockerbie is actually such a compelling drama to watch. Colin Firth is magnificent. Unfortunately, I got hugely irritated with him because he doesn't know how to wear fuggin hearing aids!! 🤦🏼

Finally caught up with Wallace & Gromit last night with my Mum and my family. We all watched together. What a cracking show and made me laff so much. 😂

So much better to visit Nottingham Xmas Market during a work day. Lots less people. Last year, it was absolutely heaving at weekend.
Photo of sky wheel and merry go round in Nottingham market. Very xmassy.

An old poster showing the fingerspelling from British Sign Language. It look like 19th century. The terminology used in describing deaf people - eek 😩
Alt text - a coloured poster showing manual chart of alphabet fingerspelling in a grid style. Each letter showing different hand shape and finger positioning to show how spell that letter.
