We're looking to expand our sexual history & STI terminology (we have a couple, e.g. spread vs transmit, unprotected vs condomless). Which terms need clarity? What's the right language to discuss sex? Thanks in advance 😊

Taking a break from social media, esp Twitter, for lots of reasons. Will return in a couple of months or so. Still contactable via other means (e.g. uni email) for academic collabs etc & other work. Take care everyone. Be kind, stay nice, have a healthy 2023 x

Childhood trauma survivors go through life with a subconscious mind always looking to confirm they're not good enough. This is why to heal, it's important to stop looking for evidence of not belonging and start affirming you belong in every room you enter.

A priest, a pastor and a rabbit entered a clinic to donate blood. The nurse asked the rabbit: “what’s your blood type?”
“I’m probably a type O”, said the rabbit.

Biting my TONGUE when audience ask how we model and promote inclusive and anti-exclusive values when there’s rhetoric at highest levels of leadership that actively demands exclusion, drives division and promotes discrimination…
There’s nothing wrong with eating Tofu. There’s nothing wrong with being ‘left’ and worrying about those without, and what on earth is meant by ‘woke’?! If being woke is being accountable, critical, inclusive, and progressive - it is NOT a bad thing!
It chilled my blood to see this speech in the HoC… playground name calling, shifting blame onto anyone / anything else, and vacuous attack on folk for what they eat, and for having a conscience… what on earth have we come to in UK politics…smh 😪
