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.

Una pregunta, mis camaradas, ¿a qué día estamos? Parece mentira que después de los juegos olímpicos cierta pagina de diferentes sociales, sigue activando histeria colectiva innecesario en contra de la medallista argelina, Imane Khelif, con supuestamente descalificación de por vida y despojando la medalla de oro olímpica y del premio de 25 millones de dólares, después de WBO declara hombre. Y voy a desmentir la información.
1. según revise la información, la descalificación es falsa, Khelif, sigue siento medallista de oro, en su segunda participación olímpica.
2. suena ilógico que un ámbito boxístico como la organización mundial de boxeo, haga una actitud mandamás a pedir la descalificación., el único organismo que toma decisión es el Comité Olímpico Internacional.
3. es lamentable que la gente está aplaudiendo como foca de seaworld con esa desinformación, en lugar de cuestionar la página poco confiada, si eres una de esa, lamento por decir que la información que leyeron es falsa
Lo malo que la página sigue difundiendo el odio, aun con la evidencia, está más claro, ya la información fue revisada y aún sigue poniendo las 5 patas al gato algo que es falso y ustedes manifestando el odio por ser una mujer cisgénero.
A question, my comrades, what day is it? It seems unbelievable that after the Olympic Games, a certain page of different social networks continues to activate unnecessary collective hysteria against the Algerian medalist, Imane Khelif, with supposedly a lifetime disqualification and stripping her of the Olympic gold medal and the prize of 25 million dollars, after the WBO declared her a man. And I am going to deny the information.
According to my review of the information, the disqualification is false, Khelif is still a gold medalist, in her second Olympic participation.
It seems illogical that a boxing environment like the World Boxing Organization, takes a top-level attitude and asks for disqualification. The only body that makes the decision is the International Olympic Committee.
It is unfortunate that people are applauding like a SeaWorld seal with this misinformation, instead of questioning the untrustworthy page. If you are one of those, I am sorry to say that the information you read is false.
The bad thing is that the page continues to spread hate, even with the evidence, it is clearer, the information has already been reviewed and it still continues to put the 5 legs on the cat something that is false and you are expressing hate for being a cisgender woman.

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.

Image description: Two women hugging as they stand outdoors on a sunny day. Their faces are near together as though they might kiss. Description ends.
Update: According to its manufacturer, the HPV vaccine is now for people of all sexes and genders from age 9 to 45. The CDC still recommends it only for age 9 to 26. They explain that's only because people older than that have supposedly been so sexually active that they've exposed themselves to several strains of HPV already. That assumption isn't true of everyone, so the CDC says people over 26 can ask their doctors for the vaccine anyway.
I’m a cis woman in a relationship with a cis woman. How can I avoid passing HPV to my partner?
Someone asked us:
I’m 24 cisfemale and have been monogomously with my 31yo cisfemale partner for 2 years. I recently tested positive for a high risk strain of hpv. No way to tell from who or when. Her results came back negative. Is it possible her body has fought it off, especially if she initially had it, so it’s been more time? Can I have more detailed information on how hpv spreads between two women? And how to be safer? We are highly sexually involved. PS We have a follow up with her physician to ask as well!
Lots of great questions about HPV (human papillomavirus) here! You bet I’m going to answer the heck out of them. But first I want to say that it sounds like you and your partner are both super on top of your health and you’re communicating openly about it, which is truly fabulous! Bravo!
The thing about HPV is that sometimes you can have it and not know it for a while, and sometimes it can come and go without you even knowing it was there. So there’s no way to know for sure who you got it from or when you got it. Getting tested is the only way to know for sure if you have high-risk HPV, so it’s awesome that you and your partner were both able to do that. Keeping up with your recommended HPV/Pap tests in the future will help you both stay healthy long term. Your doctor or nurse will let you both know how often you should get them.
HPV is passed through skin-to-skin contact, which happens in all different kinds of sex. Until you get the all clear from your doctor or nurse, it’s a good idea to avoid any direct genital-to-genital contact. Oral sex on the vulva of the person with HPV can put your partner at risk of oral HPV, but dental dams can lower the risk. If you use sex toys together, using condoms on them or washing them between uses can prevent spreading HPV.
The HPV vaccine prevents many of the strains of HPV that can lead to cancer. Even though you know you have high risk HPV, you can still talk with your doctor or nurse about whether or not the vaccine makes sense for you. It can help protect you from other high-risk types of HPV. And even though the vaccine is generally recommended for people younger than 26, your partner can still talk to her doctor or nurse about it, too.
Smoking can increase your risk of cancer if you have high risk HPV, so if you smoke, now’s a good time to quit.
It sounds like you and your partner are already taking steps to be safe. Keeping up with your check-ups and continuing the awesome open communication with your partner will totally get you both through this.

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.

elaborating on a post from last night.
back when the good omens show first came out, i saw this fandom quickly dismiss concerns transfems had about the transmisogynistic tropes present in the show, the book, and gaiman's other work. i saw this fandom praise a depiction of a man disguising himself as a woman with the sole intention of gaining access to a child and influencing them into evil as a bold, positive representation of gender nonconformity. unfortunately i, being very young at the time and not as familiar with transphobia as it applied to trans women as i was with how it applied to myself (a tme enby), was part of this dismissal. i, like many other good omens fans, participated in brushing aside trans women's valid concerns in favor of supporting neil gaiman's bullshit. but i have since left the fandom, learned, and realized how fucked up it was.
so it's honestly sickening to see this same fandom now use defense of and support for trans women as a shield to excuse neil gaiman's bullshit once again. i believe that tortoise media had motives for wanting to break the story that had more to do with gaiman's milquetoast support for trans rights than they did concern for his victims, but i also believe the victims. i wish scarlett and k had come forward about their abuse with literally any other outlet, and it's entirely possible that one or both of them have bigoted beliefs about trans people themselves, but i'm not going to dismiss what they went through just because they aren't perfect victims or perfect people.
it's without question that gaiman had sexual relationships with both of these women, both being in their early 20s while he was in his 40s and 60s, one being a fan he met when she was a teenager and the other being his employee, respectively. that alone should make you want to distance yourself from him and his work. it also seriously makes me doubt his innocence that his own defense of himself is that k is just still so upset about the way their relationship ended that she's making sa allegations to get back at him almost two decades later and that scarlett is literally delusional and has created false memories of assault due to a medical condition that she does not fucking have.
we have seen time and time again that victims get absolutely no reward for coming forward about abuse, especially so when their abuser is a wealthy public figure. the idea that women are incentivized to create false allegations is a straight up lie and i had thought, after you all were fooled by depp and his pr team not too long ago, that we had all moved past believing it, but i guess fucking not.
#and to the terfs using this as proof of trans women being evil: fuck OFF.#you are just as scummy as tortoise themselves using these women's abuse as ammunition for your bigotry#when if gaiman had never spoken about trans people you would not care and if he had been anti trans you would be right there defending him#which i know because i have seen you lot stand by cisgender men accused of abuse when they are expressly anti trans#neil gaiman#good omens#i speak
