@RedRosa

Which wave of feminism yielded whatever it is Martina the tennis player is positing now?
She’s joined some UK lesbians in something that’s anti-trans. I don’t know the name of the group but it’s some lesbian project in the UK.

It’s pretty weird and in my country some activists had a big protest when an allied UK anti trans protester came here.

Group was linked to neo nazis and all sorts of nasties.

Anti trans in Melbourne

Crazy that this person was allowed into these locations

Edit: rest assured I view trans as women

@delevigne-fan One of the tendencies within both waves of feminism is radical feminism, and the anti trans feminists are known by the acronym TERF, trans-exclusionary radical feminist.

Radical feminists reduce all power imbalances down to patriarchal domination and consider race, class and sexual orientation secondary.

I don't count myself among TERFs or radical feminists in general -- I consider myself a socialist feminist, trans inclusionary.

I got these glasses recently: https://www.zennioptical.com/p/browline ... uId=542629

I wear glasses and wanted sunglasses, and these seemed like a nice versatile option for that. Cuter than standard clip-ons, anyways.

I don't know how often I'll wear them outside the house, but they kind of force me into putting myself out there in circumstances where I want to have sunglasses.

That was a really interesting read. Thanks for sharing.
And all that there is, is the absolute ugliness of being human. And you’ve got to love it. Or else you’re f**ked.

I'm going to get a bi pride Jersey from Spencer's. I'm in between a men's medium and a men's large, but the reviews say I should get a men's medium.
Edit to add: I also got the original Gilbert pride flag from etsy. Pride was always about everyone!
