The Welsh government broke its own law in how it banned puberty blockers for under-18s questioning their gender identity.
A former Plaid Cymru leader said no impact assessment was written - something the government's own guidelines says officials should use to ensure ministers follow the law.

Last week I updated my mega-post "What's wrong with the Cass Review?" with new links to analysis and evidence.
I have no illusions about the current political landscape. It will likely take years to undo Cass' act of sabotage. But I am in this fight for the long haul and hope you are too.

‼️Mississippi has introduced a bill that would REQUIRE the teaching of state laws regarding "homosexual activities" and that sex should only occur in a monogamous marriage.
The intent was NEVER to stop at trans people in sports.

I'm currently not doing so as my dad has hearing damage and struggles to hear my mum and sister due to the timbre of their voices. He is often left isolated from conversations and appreciates time with myself, my nephew and my future brother in law.

So an update on the Facebook drama..I will admit I was wrong.
What I saw was a dummy profile those friends keep, and their profile was still linked via a pseudonym.
I feel stupid, but it did snap me out of the pity no party a bit.
I still feel silly and hate the way my brain jumps at shadows

But speaking of #RejecttionSensitivityDisphoria, something else I have become aware of on the book of faces.
I think my suspicions that my ex is telling stories to some of our #DetroitGothic circle, as I have noticed a few old friends from Detroit have unfriend/unfollowed on Facebook.

This is so similar to my feelings at onset of puberty and teenage years.
Alito's comments about Pornhub reminded me that Wendy Carlos gave her first interview about her gender dysphoria and sex change to Playboy in 1979

I spoke to my mum today in the phone, initially as my mail regarding the divorce is going there, but also cleared the air from the misunderstanding.
They don't doubt me.
They are concerned I'm running too hard into it without fully thinking, as a means to escape my difficult trauma bond.

A bit of a long 🧵.
It has been about 2 years since I came out to my immediate family as #genderfluid. And in this time in discussions with my GP, who believes I'm Trans, but just cope with the disphoria, I have tried to girl up as often as I can..it takes a lot of effort however.
