However the @europeansleeper.eu gods have smiled on us and we can now get a direct sleeper train from The Hague to Prague!!

We need to work on the adults first because far too many misogynistic attitudes exist in school adults. And that includes internalised misogyny that women use on other femme people who aren’t “valuable” in this society. The adults have to change first
