⚠️ New publication alert ⚠️ 🏳️‍⚧️ Transgender parenthood in Swedish admin data: 💕 About 11% are parents. 💕 Trans people have children at similar ages and with about similar earnings levels as cis people. 💕 Trans men start their transition before kids, trans women after.

The NY Times with an article about funding cuts just at the NIH. US biomedical research is conducted at universities with a lot of funding coming from the government. The Trump admin is cutting the funds, destroying a system that has led to major breakthroughs. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
nytimes.com
Here are the nearly 2,500 medical research grants canceled or delayed by Trump
Some cuts have been starkly visible, but the country’s medical grant-making machinery has also radically transformed outside the public eye.

My husband has taught human reproduction and development to the Cambridge medics for over three decades. When people start banging on about "only two biological sexes" he starts with "which sex: genetic, hormonal, or gonadal"? Biological sex is not binary. www.scientificamerican.com/article/sex-...

Biologists now think there is a larger spectrum than just binary female and male

In Nordic welfare states, not all family policies promote equality. A new AJS article by Evertsson, Moberg & van der Vleuten compares earnings penalties in same- and different-sex couples across countries, showing how policy design shapes work–care divisions www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/...

East African leaders and Saudi royals are among those profiting off a lucrative, deadly trade in domestic workers, who become ground down by unpaid wages, beatings, starvation, and sexual assault. Some are broke. Others are in coffins.

Please read this piece on the authoritarian practice of denationalization. The de facto erasure of trans people in the US. The product of a dehumanization of queer people that we also see in Europe. If you don’t speak up against “gender criticals” these are the politics you align yourself with.

“Once you decide that a single vulnerable minority can be sacrificed, you’re operating within a fascist logic,” they said. “That means there might be a second one you’re willing to sacrifice and a third, a fourth. Then what happens?”
