It seems for weeks there have been stories about Trans children and adults. Yet interesting as usual the discourse has only explored the experience for males. whether that be biological males or trans women. No useful narrative for Trans males who are biological females.

I want it to be because of the unambiguous cover up of violenceContinue reading “The collapse of the government in England when men are sexually assaulted… it just is not cricket? “

During the recovery road I met my late husband. His wishes were made very clear that I should move forward, meet someone, that being aloneContinue reading “Can survivors date ?
