Sort of good news.
I had a brief look at the comments in th United Kingdom subreddit on a post about banning trans woman and the forst couple of comments I read seemed pro-trans and against it
fucking freaking out over the guidance
i'm absolutely terrified... theyhate us they want us dead
Where to watch the statement on the new guidance?
Title basically, is there somewhere we can watch or read the statement?
The New EHRC Guidance for is not yet listed in the Ministerial Papers for today's session, may not be released today.
title, good or bad, idk.
NEW RESEARCH: Exposing the anti-trans networks
A hostile environment against trans people did not emerge overnight.
Amnesty’s new research traces the rise of the UK’s “gender critical” movement and the role the media have played in normalising anti-trans narratives.
Anti-trans movements are increasingly connected to wider anti-trans networks like the US organisation the Alliance Defending Freedom which worked to overturn Roe vs Wade and access to abortion care.
When the rights of one group are eroded, the consequences never stop there.
Solidarity matters. For those who want to take our rights away, it's their worst nightmare.
Trans rights are human rights.

Spiraling over EHCR stuff
Title. Worst timing as well since I'm right in the middle of my A-levels and do not need the stress. I'm non-binary so IDK if it will even effect me but any advice to calm down/stay calm and be able to focus would be really helpful!
are we expecting an end of day drop and run guidance release
Just thinking for the EHRC guidance? Are we expecting it to be the last thing before everyone runs away at the end of the day
Made my smile this morning
Someone’s little act of defiance made me smile this morning 😀
Have to wear boymode hoodie this weekend heatwave - wish me luck
I’m doing the yearly visit of my transphobic parents and grandparents this weekend and have to hide my boobs. Can’t wait to rock a binder and hoodie in almost 30 degree weather 😭
Heart in mouth moment from misleading headline.
This article popped up in my internet feed yesterday. It's really not what i was thinking about before I opened it.
Article headline is
Morrisons becomes first supermarket to bring in toilet rule in all 500 UK stores
Unexpected clickbait for trans peeps I suppose.

btw tried to archive it and wasn't playing nice.
I feel like I’m totally fucked
After a few years of trying, I just got a prescription for estrogen. I should be happy but I feel like no matter what I do Im totally fucked. It seems like Im just around the corner from having this medication taken away from me again. And if that happens they’ll go after diy suppliers too. But I can’t go diy now and stockpile or my family won’t support me anymore snd I’ll lose my only support system.
I feel like no matter what I do this ends badly
GRC title changes
Hi, I’m in the process of sending off my GRC application (just need solicitor witness for declaration which I’ve got booked for tomorrow).
I know with the GRC I can get a new birth certificate in my new name and gender (deedpoll from 2020) if I’m approved but I also believe it changed title on government stuff (I’m still getting letters addressed to Miss from DWP)
If I’m approved does the title change happen automatically for national insurance number and letters or is there a process? Ive heard different things such as getting a new number like nhs did? I’m just confused. Everywhere else I’m Mr it’s just NIN and DWP
questions about deadname on cv
so i’m 15 ftm and my friend also 15 just applied for a job and she got accepted and they’re still hiring and i would like to apply as well but i’m not sure about what information i need to put in my cv about my deadname, my name hasnt legally been changed yet.
obviously for legal documentation it needs to have my deadname on it but i don’t know if i should disclose that in my cv or if i even have to, i know i’ll have to bring it up at some point but i’m worried about when i should
idk if there’s different laws about it but i’m in the north east of scotland if that makes a difference.
basically, should i mention the legalities of my name in my cv/do i have to and if i don’t talk about it in the application when should i bring it up? assuming i get the job.
EHRC Guidance expected tomorrow
TERFgraph: "However, on Wednesday, government sources confirmed that the code would finally be laid before MPs on Thursday, before Parliament enters recess."
Joining the army as a trans man.
Im looking to join the ranger regiment soon and I dont know how itll be as a transgender man.
I plan to join it whilst worked out to an appropriate physique, and having been on hormones for long enough for them to be stable.
My main questions are,
- Will I be supplied with hormones on deployment/basic?
- Will I be treated equal to the average man within the army?
Not sure where else to post this. Thank you for any help that can be given.
Small acts of defiance of the EHRC (likely) segregationist guidance
I have been thinking of easy ways to protest it.
A few months back I bought some pink felt, glue and badge backs and have made some very noticeable pink inverted triangle badges, ready to go. To remind the cis supremacists of the last time they tried this 90 years ago. I mean they probably won’t last but I have 20 of them so I wont run out for a while and they’re easy to make.
I have a punk style black customised tshirt with some protest slogans on the front and a massive pink triangle in the back bearing the slogan “We are not your üntermenschen” that I wore to a trans pride march. it got a lot of attention from photo journalists, but none were published cause … the media 🙄.
Small acts of defiance for certain, but low effort ones I can do without it taking a toll.
Considering other stuff too, but not discussing in front of our Mumsnet lurkers, who will DEFINITELY be here should the “advice” drop tomorrow
This feels like a stupid question, but you would still need to get prostate exams after medically transitioning MtF?
I'm just asking because I don't think I've ever really heard trans women being brought up when talking about them, but the thing is still there and I presume can still get cancer.
