Thank you @drlouisenewson 🙏
I have written an article for @thetimes in response to the new draft menopause guidelines from NICE. They are a step backwards for women. CBT may have a place when taking a holistic approach to managing the perimenopause, but it won’t improve every menopause symptom and won’t

What an absolute honor to speak with @PiersUncensored tonight about such an important global topic. Keeping men out of womens sports. @ICFSport @icons_women @Riley_Gaines_ @IWF

If a sports woman dies in a contact sport because of a male competitor I want someone to go to prison for manslaughter.. the governing bodies that are not following the known peer reviewed science are utterly culpable of negligence. 19 studies show us that. NON show otherwise

This week we’ve had a male say his testes & male level testosterone (a banned substance on the world anti doping list that would get me a biological female a 4yr ban if I had CS’s even legally reduced to race levels in my blood stream!) say it didn’t give them an advantage

Hi @BBCWomansHour & @Emmabarnett, in your interview this morning, can you please state the pertinent FACTS about Semenya: XY chromosomes, testes, male levels of testosterone and sensitivity to that testosterone. ie male physiology NOT “woman with high testosterone”. And can …

Thank you to the Queen @jk_rowling for defending women & girls in sport. 🙏❤️Many of us defending them get accused of “hate”. TRAs throw the word “hate” around to avoid having to make reasoned, logical arguments in support of males in the F category, & to shut us up.
@Ansleigh_mma @Da_Nasty_Man You've done nothing wrong. This isn't, and never was, about hate, it's about fairness and safety for women and girls. You stood up to protect your fellow athletes, which makes you a heroine in all sane people's eyes. I know backlashes aren't fun (believe me, I know) but there are

Lost for words! The utter contempt for female athletes is disgraceful! Shame on @usacycling for allowing this to happen….!!!
Male competes in both male & female categories in same competition. He also takes points in female category, obstructing development pathway for females & shoving females off the podium. This is despicable male supremacy. #SaveWomensSports

Eating meat is not only NOT bad for you, it is essential for you as part of a healthy diet. We are omnivores - by definition designed to eat meat. Eating processed meat or processed anything is bad for you, including the many processed vegetarian and vegan dishes sold by your

Thank you Jon - Not an academic like you I thought I was missing something or didn’t understand - how else could someone in Victor & co’s position at the UN write this - you have summarised it perfectly; ‘This position doc is a woeful incoherent stupid & sexiest piece of work’!
So this is a pretty extraordinary document from Victor Madrigal and Co at the UN. Let me count the ways ...🧵 https://t.co/KFoWBq7UzB

I find this utterly appalling!!!
A man who raped a girl has been sentenced to just 3 years in jail in Guernsey, and can attend gender clinics in London from jail as he says he's now a woman. The BBC, using female pronouns for him, adds "she was biologically male at the time of the attack" https://t.co/jtTzHx9fit

How have we got to this…?
Just look at the smirk on this male’s face as he looks across at the female athlete. He knows exactly what he is doing - humiliating & demeaning females. Same as all males who choose to compete in the female category, destroying fairness for all females. #SaveWomensSports

@OsteopathTish @brightsider123 @MattersEssex @triathannie @petemarshall @stephenlondoner @parkrunUK I’d like to hear an answer to this too. Also Helen says accept males in the female category & therefore unfairness, or get lost. The exact opposite of the inclusive & welcome to all ethos of parkrun. I’ve seen this often from defenders of parkrun - our way or the highway.
