The national picture shows waiting times for gender identity clinics that far exceed the NHS's recommended maximum of 18 weeks.

But drilling down into the data from our investigation, 'The Gender Clinic Files' reveals huge disparities across the UK

👉 www.wearequeeraf.com/gender-clini...
THE GENDER CLINIC FILES
12 YEARS
England
58 YEARS
Scotland
2 YEARS
Wales
41 YEARS
Northern Ireland
The average waiting times across the UK according to QueerAF analysis shows they vary wildly around the UK:

Estimated wait time for a first appointment as of March 2025 (in years) based on QueerAF analysis of data from FOIs

🔴 England - 12 years
🔴 Wales - 2 years
🔴 Scotland - 58 years
🔴 Northern Ireland - 41 years

This data is shown in an infographic with a map of the UK alongside logos of QueerAF and What The Trans?!

This means I can go back and forth from English (US) to Japanese (standard/標準語) to Dialect 1 (paternal dialect) to Dialect 2 (maternal dialect). 😎👍
mishimakitan.bsky.social
I was just thinking that I should put the Japanese dialects that I do understand and speak on my resume. I just know them because my father's side of the family and my mother's side of the family are basically from the opposite side of the main land Japan with very distinctively different dialects.

I'll be joining my local No Kings March. It helps. There is power in people gathering to make their voices heard.

gonna bring my sweet wonderful toddler to the no kings rally in my ATL suburb on 10/18 (concepts for signs appreciated!). if you live in the burbs of a big city I encourage you to look up a local demonstration. cities have plenty of support; your local community needs you. www.mobilize.us/nokings/

Unemployment is a terrible soul-sucking experience and I'm sincerely sorry for everyone in the industry waiting out this downturn, though when I see pictures of my former colleagues at the pumpkin patch during the weekday, it does look a lot of fun
