Harriet Williamson (April 29, 2023). "Trans-inclusive cervical cancer campaign defies anti-LGBTQ+ hate: ‘We deserve to be screened.’" PinkNews. https://www.thepinknews.com/2023/04/29/cervical-cancer-screening-smear-test-lgbtq-inclusive-remove-the-doubt/
Update: This news article is about a campaign for cervical cancer screening, called Remove The Doubt. The UK charity running the campaign was called Live Through This. Later, the charity changed its name to OUTpatients, so the campaign moved to their new site. Since then, you can visit the Remove The Doubt site here, which explains to anyone who has a cervix what they need to know about cervical cancer screening and HPV vaccines.

It's true! Two large studies on cis women, mostly heterosexuals, report needing clitoral stimulation to orgasm - only 6% reported only needing penetration. Read more about it here or in the free version here.

question for cisgender women/nonbinary peeps AFAB:
do you ever shave your face? I don’t have much facial hair, but the wisps that I do have turn black and visible above my upper lip and even on my cheeks (coming out of sideburn areas). for years I’ve tried the feminine methods of tweezing/waxing/etc, but they don’t work well and in no time at all the “shadowstache” is back. recently I got fed up, and finally decided to shave it “like a man”. worked great, but I haven’t told anyone IRL including my mother b/c I think they’ll overreact. does anyone else do this or am I actually crazy?

I can't tell you how to BE a woman I just AM?
Like, I keep reading all these pople (mostly trans) saying what it means to be a woman, and I've had trans friends asking me how to be more of a woman but I just... For example, let me ask you, how are you able to see? We all have eyes, but some people can see, others can't. Why? How do you do it? How do you look at your garden and perceive colours? How are you not colourblind? Well, if we don't go into full scientific answers, the only answer you could give is, I just do. I just am. It just happens, right?
The same for women. When you ARE, you don't need to put effort into BECOMING. And there's no clear recipe for womanhood. Some women wear make-up, others don't, some have long hair, others don't, some have jewellery, others don't even use earrings, some like dresses and heels, many prefer trousers and sports shoes, some are curvaceous, some aren't, some have breasts and ovaries, some don't.
We can become more femme, more butch, more androginous... but women, we just are. And there are lots of scientific reasons for this (for example, having ovaries means your ovaries are going to release certain hormones that are going to make you function differently, but also there are countless others, including, as scientists have shown, differences in the very BRAIN), but if you don't want to get into the science, the answer is simply, I am a woman, because I am. Because I can't be anything else. I don't know how to be anything else. I wasn't born as anything else. I wake up in the morning and I'm a woman, and I go to bed, and I am a woman. And this happens even if I ever get annoyed for being a woman (and I will when I'm bleeding on my period and getting frustrated AF) and wish for a simpler life. Like, my body is not going to ask me for permission to be a woman, it'll just be. And trans women are trans women precisely because they can't just wake up and be women, they have to go long lengths to look in a way they can identify as their own version of what a woman is supposed to look like.
So what I say to my trans friends is just, wear whatever makes you happy. If you've been dreaming with having a long hair and make-up and wearing heels all the time, fine, go on, but like... Sometimes if all of us girls are going out, the MtF will be the ONLY one looking like that and the rest of us will just be in jeans, sweatshirts and sports shoes or sandals. And I get it frustrates them because they're trying to find a uniform to be a woman and then they go with what they think will do it, and the rest of us don't follow, but unless we pre-agree on our outfits in advance, I'm sorry, but there's nothing I can do but to say, wear whatever you're comfortable wearing.
Trans women get judged because we see a PORTRAYAL of woman, much like playing a character that we know well and love, and then this person comes and interprets it in a whole other way that we might not like, and that's when we're like, hold on, are you fetishizing us? are you having completely wrong ideas of what a woman is? are you just excited to be able to touch your own boobs? Like, one of my trans MtF friends, when she identified as a gay man, she used to like to touch our (cis female friends) boobs, and now she touches her own. Whereas women are never going to question how much of a women fellow cisgender women are, because none of us is portraying, "passing", "acting"... We're just behaving in our most natural, normal way, and we understand our fellow women are doing the same thing.
I feel like that's why whenever I read about MtF getting excited about their new women bodies after surgery and hormonal treatments, I get very uncomfortable. Because I'm not looking at a friend saying "my God, I'm pretty". No. MtF will talk about their excitement touching their breasts, playing with them... And that's insanely sexual, so of course it makes us uncomfortable. When you treat bodies that... Well, that are our bodies too (in the sense of having similar features, such as breasts), in such a sexual way, we're seeing how YOU see US, and we obviously feel like mere sexual objects. And that is not a comfortable experience.
So to be clear, specially since a male friend asked me about what it feels like to have breasts: we (cis women) DO NOT make a big deal out of having breasts. They're there, we're aware of their existence, and we only touch them when we want to have an orgasm (and only if we feel like it), or when we're washing up or putting a bra on. Sometimes we look at them and think "ok, nice", but often times we're just like "fucking hell, I just bought you this bra, why won't you like it any more?". But that's about it. Like, I don't know, do you think a lot about your earlobes? probably not. Well, that's the same for women, we lost our fascination for breasts about two minutes after we got them.
This is not to say that we don't admire our bodies and our looks. Of course we do. I'd be lying if I pretended like I don't sometimes stare at myself naked with some kind of pride. But you won't see me writing a post any-fucking-where commenting about how I enjoy touching myself. And although I can understand MtF getting excited about the novelty... please, at least if you're talking to us, consider for us boobs and other body parts aren't toys, uh? Like, imagine trying to pretend to be black just for aesthetics or something. You can imagine actual black people would take offence in you using their colour, for which they get marginalised and sometimes, murdered, as a fashion trend to have fun with right? Well, similarly, we might take offence if our breasts, for which we're often subjected to harassment and sexual abuse, are perceived kind of like as exciting new toys.

Coelingh Bennink, H. J. T., Schultz, I. J., Schmidt, M., Jordan, V. C., Briggs, P., Egberts, J. F. M., Gemzell-Danielsson, K., Kiesel, L., Kluivers, K., Krijgh, J., Simoncini, T., Stanczyk, F. Z., & Langer, R. D. (2023). "Progesterone from ovulatory menstrual cycles is an important cause of breast cancer." Breast cancer research : BCR, 25(1), 60. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13058-023-01661-0
According to this overview, the hormone that causes breast cancer is progesterone from menstrual cycles, not estrogen or testosterone. The risk of developing breast cancer is about the same whether someone has normal menstrual periods or takes birth control to suppress their periods. The risk may be slightly higher in the latter case. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) doesn't cause a higher risk. Transgender women who take estrogen develop breasts that are the same as those of cisgender women, but with a much lower risk of breast cancer than cisgender women, and higher than that of cisgender men. Transgender men do not increase their risk of breast cancer by taking testosterone, and top surgery reduces their risk.

If you pay attention to TIRFs (trans inclusive radical feminists) you will find they talk about trans people two ways.
One is that all trans people are women. That is, trans women are women, but also trans men are female socialized so they are close enough, and non-binary people can be mushed in as cis women or trans women as needed.
The other is that trans women are women (good, pure, innocent), trans men are men (bad, impure, guilty), and non-binary are mushed in as cis or binary trans, (evil) man or (virtuous) women, as needed.
Even when radfems are not TERFs, they are still bioessentialist.

Terfs found one of my posts and are now harassing me in the replies because they think I’m trans because I have ‘lady’ in my username and my pronouns in my bio…these people need to touch grass for real

Misconceptions about Gender Reassignment Surgery and HRT
That they are performing surgeries on children left and right, and pumping children full of hormones. All of it the same day someone waltzes into a clinic on a whim.
If a child is prepubescent, literally all that's needed is the social transition, meaning a new name/clothes/haircut.
If a child starts to hit puberty and still wants to transition, most go on puberty blockers, which need the permission of both a parent and a psychologist, as well as a gender dysphoria diagnosis. Puberty blockers are 100% reversible and harmless.
If a child realizes they aren't trans later, they can simply stop taking them and go through puberty as normal.
If a child still wants to transition after this, they can usually start HRT around age 15/16, again with permission from a parent and psych. Bottom surgery is never performed on children, the lowest age being 18.
Again, usually, this requires having been on HRT for at least a year, as well as 3 letters from a therapist, psychiatrist, and the clinic providing HRT. These surgeries are also expensive as hell and rarely covered by insurance - most save for years and fly to another country to have them done.
The reactionary "they're mutilating our kids" narrative is simply bullsh8t fearmongering.

I’m sorry to be a party pooper, but as a transfem wc fan that “I've been seeing a lot of hosility towards transmascs in this community” is so weird. Because one they have my mutual who is also trans women blocked for some reason and I have never seen any negativity on transmasc in this fandom like ever. Which is crazy because this fandom is mostly dominated by transmascs and tmes.
For the first time in the entire fandoms history have we had a spike of people finally recognizing and treating trans woman in this fandom with respect, and yet that person post that begging for more mascs to be recognized. That’s not weird in the slightest.
I’m just tired… yall will NEVER treat trans women like the way you did with op.
It’s low-key disappointing.
i’m… sorry? i really don’t know what you’re talking about, i just wanted to lift up other transmasc artists- i don’t quite know what i did wrong? i don’t believe i said anything against transfems and i even said i haven’t seen any transmasc-directed bigotry?
here’s the post in question for those out of the loop
