@TransMediaWatch (thinking particularly of@HelenCBelcher's submission to Leveson - don't make me think how long ago that was!) then I really recommend it
Followed, and thanks. I admit I mostly just came up with the climbing joke and went from there, but I did get one nice lady to admit she'd been misinformed as to the broadness with which "chestfeeding" was going to be applied.

I think one of the things which is hard to convey is that this isn't *just* transphobia - it's a complicated product of press laws/libel laws/ongoing practice etc. etc. etc. - and that trans ppl are not the only targets of media scaremongering to sell papers/get clicks.

They'll cheerfully scaremonger about banana bendiness regulations. This is not a joke, they actually did that.
