If you had plans to be away when Sunak took us by surprise with his July 4 election, you should apply for a postal vote now. Deadline is not that far away. Don’t let the Tories voter suppression campaign work - go to this site now GOV.UK gov.uk/apply-postal-v…

It's depressing but women and girls need health care, housing, education, all that the Tories are destroying. Let's vote Labour, and then we can talk about penises. The Tories would be all for women with penises if they thought it would appeal to their supporters.

Am I the only one to wonder if the sudden announcement of a general election has something to do with distracting from and avoiding taking responsibility for the infected blood scandal? It sure knocked it off the headlines.

Pope Francis's magnificent vision is undermined by everything he says about women. How can a man with such a radical vision of faith as a risk-taking adventure to the far horizons, and with such a commitment to dialogue, be so stubbornly ill-informed in his attitude to women?

Thanks for all the support for my doc BBC One

If you want to know why me & many other disabled people oppose assisted suicide, watch on iPlayer.

And if you think what's happening in Canada would never happen here? Jersey are voting on an almost identical law...

The point they're missing is that 'equal' does not mean 'the same'. Men, trans women and women should be equal under the law, but that doesn't mean treating us all the same.

No. I still haven’t seen a satisfactory definition of what these terms mean. They didn’t exist twenty five years ago…and I don’t mean that transsexuals didn’t exist- I mean non binary and various other add on identities. These are western cultural elitist concepts.

Yes to this. It's not about power, choice, individualism. It's about how we use our voices and whose voices we decide to amplify.

So many wrongs being righted and people in power held to account - a rare good news day. War criminals named. Scathing report on contaminated blood scandal released. Corruscating tribunal report defends raped women against vicious ideologues at Edinburgh Rape crisis Centre.

Why would a rape crisis centre prioritise men's gender identities over raped women's trauma? Why would a biological male even apply to work there? This is why some gender theorists like me have become gender critical feminists. Women and children first.

If there were more voices like Dr María Inés de la Cruz willing to speak out, how much more constructive our dialogue could be about rights and boundaries. There must be more trans persons out there who understand the issues and concerns. Why are they so silent?

'Our theological tradition—and specifically the work of Karl Rahner and Tina Beattie—can help us reflect on these imperatives and how they play out in the future.' I'm honoured! 😊 americamagazine.org/faith/2024/05/…
