Trans people are being challenged, misgendered and harassed whether they use a facility that aligns with their sex assigned at birth, or not. Many gender non conforming women also report more challenges in gendered spaces.

This report examines how the hastily released non-statutory EHRC interim update (following the April Supreme Court Judgement on the definition of sex for the purposes of the Equality Act 2010) has…

We have been tracking people’s experiences with gendered spaces and our new report looks at the impact of the 2025 EHRC interim update on access to, and experiences within, gendered spaces in the UK.
Image shows a row of toilet stalls with blue doors. Text reads: " I went to use the women's toilets as I was on my period and there were no gender neutral ones. A middle aged male security guard ran in after me…he started banging on the [cubicle] door, trying to open it as he shouted "sir, sir you can't be in here”... hearing the pitch of my voice was enough for him to drop it and leave. But I sat in the toilet feeling scared, vulnerable and dirty for a good few minutes." -a non-binary person tinyurl.com/ReportALoo Image shows a sign hanging from the ceiling that says 'WC' and has male and female toilet symbols. Text reads: “ A few months ago in a local LGBTQ+ owned bar, I went into the men's toilets and another guy looked at me and then yelled "You’re in the wrong toilet" in my face at close range.” -a transmasc person tinyurl.com/ReportALoo Image shows multicoloured soft play mats and apparatus. Text reads: "I was supervising my 5 year old disabled son, who was in the establishment’s soft play area. My son soiled himself and so I stood to take him to the facilities. However, when I made to head to the bathroom a woman who I assume to be in a senior role quickly came towards us and blocked my progress, pointing at the men’s toilets and advising me that “The gentlemen’s are there.” -a disabled, trans woman (who had been making her way to the accessible toilet) tinyurl.com/ReportALoo Image shows 3 toilet signs one accessible, one women's and baby changing and one men's. Text reads: "I was stopped going into a bathroom by another tourist who stated that “these are the women’s toilets”. I stated that I am a woman and therefore using the ‘correct’ toilet for my gender. This is the most recent example of me being harassed going into a toilet in the past year. Which has gone from never to 6 incidents now." -a cis, butch dyke tinyurl.com/ReportALoo

In 2025, men made up 57% of the workers who say they are juggling both paid work and caregiving. In 2023, women made up 56% of worker-caregivers. The shift is likely due to women leaving the paid workforce altogether.

More working men are caregivers as women leave workforce, survey finds
There's not a big shift in gender equality — instead, it's a change in who's going to work.

To dismantle structures that cause imposter syndrome:
- Examine who gets credit & why
- Value collaborative achievements
- Recognize that someone who thinks before speaking might have better ideas than those who dominate the conversation @shannonrwatts.bsky.social

Why women feel like imposters in spaces that value masculine traits
The solution to imposter syndrome isn’t teaching us to be more masculine. It’s dismantling the structures that make us feel like imposters in the first place.

Nerd thread alert. Woke up this morning and started skim reading the provincially commissioned independent review of E-Comm 911, the body that handles 911 phone calls and dispatches.

Let me relate this to the police budget in #yyj, and #bcpoli more broadly.

you'd think a prominent news outlet like the New York Times might mention that "antifa" isn't an actual organization in a long story about antifa, but nope!

and the subhead helps props up a false claim this professor was up to something seedy as something up for debate
NYT headline: "Rutgers Expert on Antifa Tries to Flee to Spain After Death Threats" subheadline: "Mark Bray was teaching courses on antifascism. Turning Point USA accused him of belonging to antifa, which he denies. His flight to Spain was canceled abruptly on Wednesday night."
