The Cass Review was not only dismissive of trans identities, but it infantilised #autistic people, suggesting we don’t know our own minds until our 20s.

Join Ely Pride to protest the recent Supreme Court ruling that the term Female relates only to gender assigned at birth. This is a huge step backwards for trans rights, safety and inclusion.
We will be meeting Monday 28th April at 7pm on Market Square, Ely

When you were a child, were all stories and lessons and observations involving animals of indeterminate sex gender cast?
This is a big problem for everyone. I still catch myself doing it. Referring to a bird, a lizard, a snake, as a he/him (primary gender casting is masculine, except for stereotypical animals like cats or flamingos 🦩 - which were almost certainly she).

Every federal agency in the U.S. is currently trying to figure out how to purge forbidden words from documents posted online, in a desperate attempt to comply with President Donald Trump’s executive order to purge “DEI” from every facet of American life. And nowhere is that effort more bizarre than the National Science Foundation, which is currently combing through websites and research papers for a long list of words that include #female, #disability, and #LGBT, among a host of others.
The review comes in response to a memo sent out Jan. 29 from the Office of Personnel Management, written by acting director Charles Ezell. Every agency has interpreted the memo a little differently, but at NSF they’ve compiled a list of words that need to be found, which will initiate a review to see if it’s allowed.
According to the Washington Post, a word like #women appearing will get the content flagged, but it will need to be manually reviewed to determine if the context of the word is related to a forbidden topic under the anti-DEI order. Trump and his fellow fascists use terms like DEI to describe anything they don’t like, which means that the word #women is on the forbidden list while #men doesn’t initiate a review.
Straight white men are seen through the #MAGA worldview as the default human and thus wouldn’t be suspicious and in need of a review. Any other type of identity is inherently suspect.
Some of the terms that are getting flagged are particularly eyebrow-raising in light of the Nazi salutes that Trump supporters have been giving since he took office. For example, the term #hateSpeech will get a paper at NSF flagged for further review. Redefining terms like #hateSpeech is obviously part of the fascist project.
Darby Saxbe, a professor at the University of Southern California, tweeted the list of banned words on Monday, including a decision tree she says had been sent to all program officers at NSF.
Forbidden keywords that initiate a review at NSF, according to Saxbe:

"Taking the same statistics, like that 29% of #Congress is #female, but reframing the issue as #mensoverrepresentation, by saying instead that 71% of Congress is male, elicits stronger emotional responses & spurs people to do something to increase access to #leadership for men and women."

Thats all. Thanks.

The ReFrame Stamp
Awarded in partnership with IMDbPro, the ReFrame Stamp is a mark of distinction for feature film projects that demonstrate a commitment to gender equity through inclusive hiring and reporting.
In collaboration with Women In Film (formerly Women in Film Los Angeles) (WIF) & the Sundance Institute, the ReFrame Stamp is now available in Australia thanks to WIFT Australia and Screen Australia’s Gender Matters Taskforce.
This stamp celebrates studios, networks, & creatives that have demonstrated measurable progress towards parity when developing, producing, financing, and marketing their product – through the hiring of women or people of under-represented gender identities in at least 50% of key roles.

A dozen #teachers from the #GreaterVictoriaTeachersAssociation are expected to show up for a #rally supporting the #LGBTQ+ community at the #BClegislature on Friday.
The rally is one of a series of events across #Canada that day to counter what local organizers from the groups #1MillionVoicesForInclusion and Finn’s Future call the “transphobic rhetoric” of a previous 1 Million March for Children, which opposes teaching on Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity or #SOGI in schools.
The teachers will be advocating for SOGI education prior to the noon #Celebration of #QueerExistence rally.
SOGI in schools has generated protests in #BritishColumbia which #GVTA president Carolyn Howe said was part of the reason the #BCgovernment recently brought in rules to keep protesters off school grounds.
She said she doesn’t know of any such protests at local schools, but noted there has been “a worrying uptick in very vocal opposition to -inclusive practices around #GenderDiversity, both in schools and in the wider community.”
“Victoria schools have #queer staff, parents, students and we want everyone in the #2sLGTBQIA+ community to know we stand together.”

#Minneapolis #powwow celebrates belonging for #TwoSpirit, #queer community
#TwoSpiritPowwow invites natives to dress and dance on their own terms.
By Auds Jenkins
June 23, 2023
"Em Matson leaned intently over a long table to arrange the delicate pieces of water lily appliqué.
"Amid the mechanical whir of sewing machines and the lively chatter during a community regalia making night, Matson zeroed in on the task at hand: finishing their ribbon pants in time for the Two Spirit Powwow.
"On Saturday, New Native Theater will sponsor Minneapolis' second annual 'Reclaiming Our Identities' Two Spirit Powwow, part of a burgeoning movement of powwows across the country that honor Two Spirit and #indigiqueer (Indigenous and queer) people.
"'I can't wait to see everybody turn out. I know that if you come specifically to this powwow, it means you support our community,' said Wase Mannidu Ikwe, a Two Spirit person of the Rocky Boy Chippewa Cree Tribe. 'It's nice to see our allies. As Two Spirits, we make large impacts in the native community. We are valid.'
"'Two Spirit' is an umbrella term derived from the #Anishnaabe '#NiizhManidoowag' (literally translated as "two spirits") that describes native people who exist outside the #GenderBinary and hold sacred roles in their communities.
"Popularized by activists in the 1990s, the term honors multiplicity within native conceptions of gender identity and spirituality. It also reflects a pre-colonial legacy of gender diversity that is being reclaimed today.
"'Prior to European #colonization, #GenderDiversity was the norm for many tribes. Gender was based on your roles and responsibilities, not what you looked like,' said Matson, a Two Spirit of the Sault Ste. Marie Ojibwe and one of the organizers of Minneapolis' Two Spirit Powwow.
"In the months leading up to the powwow, organizers have hosted regalia-making nights for local Two Spirit and indigiqueer folks to make ceremonial clothing that authentically represents their identities.
"'Our goal was for you to come and make whatever makes you feel comfortable,' said organizer Beth Seidl of the White Earth Band of Chippewa. 'We wanted everyone to feel safe, without any chance of someone coming by and saying, 'You're a boy. Why are you making a ribbon skirt?' if that's not how they identify."

If you are an event/conference whose primary focus is #inclusion, it would be great if the mandatory field for gender during sign-up had more than two options. 😶 #GenderDiversity
