Morning @thames_travel, is the X36 08:01 service from Erlestoke Avenue not running today? All the schoolkids just gave up waiting because the bus isn't showing on the app...

Self-determination is a core principle of feminism - TERFs seem to have forgotten that wearequeeraf.com/self-determ…

Self-determination is a core principle of feminism - TERFs seem to have forgotten that

So why have so-called ‘trans-exclusionary radical feminists’ moved to remove this concept from feminism altogether?

Strange how some of the @bbctms commentators still can't seem to get used to saying "batter", but haven't skipped a beat all Test with the newly-christened Broad End at Trent Bridge 🤔

Crushing scenes watching the @WHITE_FERNS defeat today at Southampton, but things picked up considerably when I managed to get an autograph from @kmarty01 🤩

So @Keir_Starmer wrote an op-ed for @AttitudeMag - but in light of events since it landed in our inbox I felt it couldn’t run without context or qualification. It’s not all bad, but he has to know that leaving our trans family behind is not an option. attitude.co.uk/news/keir-sta…

Asexuality is valid in queer spaces. Here's why. Fighting each other is literally so stupid when all of our rights are at risk right now. Aces are not your enemy. Aros, if you want me to make you one, comment below with what you'd like it to say.

After Afghanistan’s Men made it to the #T20WorldCup semi-finals, members of the former #Afghanistan Women’s Cricket team based in Aus have written to the @ICC asking for support in setting up a refugee team. They want this letter to be shared #bbccricket

I’m late but, I’ve been asked / referenced a few times in relation to this⬇️. But instead of doing my usual thing, debunking the misconceptions for education, I want to talk about the definition of demisexuality and why I think it leads to misunderstandings like this. 🧵
Tweet by @Cluffalo: “Can we stop making everything into an "orientation"? This is normal, healthy, female sexuality Wanting to immediately sleep with someone because they're hot is not the default for women”. Tweet contains two infographics about demisexuality. The one on the left reads: “Other Types of Attraction Demisexual People May Feel • Romantic attraction • Aesthetic attraction • Emotional attraction • Sensual or physical attraction • Platonic attraction”. The picture on the right reads: “What Does It Mean To Be Demisexual? Demisexuality is a sexual orientation in which sexual attraction is only experienced after developing a close emotional bond with another person. Those who are demisexual do not feel sexual attraction to others based on looks alone, their sexual desire is tied to the level of emotional connection and trust felt with this person. This often takes time and the experience of deep connection to develop.”

If you want to understand just how manufactured the transgender culture war is, less than 2 years ago Kemi Badenoch was celebrating the fact that it was becoming easier to apply for a Gender Recognition Certificate

Acephobia needs to be included in #IDAHOBIT. The theme this year is "No one left behind" and ironically, the asexual community has been. If we're going to be included in the attacks then we need to be included in the positive change as well.

🌎 This #IDAHOBLIT, we're looking at where we are for LGBTQ+ rights in the UK. 📊 New @ILGAEurope rankings released this week show the UK is stalling on progress compared to its neighbours. What does this mean for LGBTQ+ people’s lives, and how can we get back on track? [1/7]
What would it take to get the UK back on track for LGBTQ+ equality? The UK used to be #1 in Europe for LGBTQ+ rights, and we’re now at 16. As hate crime rises and progress stalls, what does this mean for LGBTQ+ people, and how can we get back on track? International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Lesbophobia & Transphobia 2024

Being #asexual isn't about what we do; it's about who we're drawn to and why. Attraction can happen in many forms, unbound by physical desires or actions. Emotional, Platonic, Aesthetic, Romantic, Physical (non-sexual) and Intellectual are all valid attractions. #alloandace
