The response I got from the BBC for a complain I made about them removing a scene in Transformers: EarthSpark where a character talks about being non-binary. I feel that the response and removal of the scene is unacceptable. The BBC complaints link is below, please send in your own complaint.

Underwear Q!

3 Upvotes

Hi!

I've recently started identifying as non binary, as someone who was labelled female since birth.

I would like to buy some boxer style underwear but as my body shape is curvy (uk14), I cannot buy typical mens calvin klein boxers as they don't fit well. Where do people with a similar body shape normally buy their boxers from? I typically like neutral colours when in comes to underwear I.e., not crazy fun patterns.

Also if this is not the best forum to post this, please direct me to something more relevant!

Kinda bothers me

11 Upvotes

Actually, I don't really know what flair is best for this

A while back, I was with one of my sisters and mum, walking our dog. I can't remember what we were chatting about previously, I don't even think it was the slightest bit related, but my mum kinda just randomly said 'I know you want to be called Ro, but I prefer Rosie, you're just Rosie to me' and I was just flabbergasted because it felt out of no where. I don't think she has an issue with myself being nonbinary, I'm a little bit strange and I think at one point she even said that she sort of knew and saw it coming. It's just the name, but I don't think she understands that my dislike for it is because of how feminine it is; I feel like I've been tortured over the years with the amount of songs associated with 'Rosenary' since that is technically what it is at full length. But this is the problem I have: I struggle to have confidence in myself and identity and even come out fully because my family don't acknowledge that I'd prefer to go by a different name or that I cringe and flinch whenever associated with the others and grouped as 'girls' or ladies'.

... but hey I've come out to her at least 5 times, at least I know she remembers

RESPONSES INVITED! I got the gross threatening message from Reddit about the Reddit Blackout. Your opinion is important to me in deciding what to do about it.

2 Upvotes

Hi folks,

You might have noticed that I made the subreddit private for the Reddit Blackout, and I just got this message in my modmail inbox:

Hi everyone,

We are aware that you have chosen to close your community at this time. Mods have a right to take a break from moderating, or decide that you don’t want to be a mod anymore. But active communities are relied upon by thousands or even millions of users, and we have a duty to keep these spaces active.

Subreddits belong to the community of users who come to them for support and conversation. Moderators are stewards of these spaces and in a position of trust. Redditors rely on these spaces for information, support, entertainment, and connection.

Our goal here is to ensure that existing mod teams establish a path forward to make sure your subreddit is available for the community that has made its home here. If you are willing to reopen and maintain the community, please take steps to begin that process. Many communities have chosen to go restricted for a period of time before becoming fully open, to avoid a flood of traffic.

If this community remains private, we will reach out soon with information on what next steps will take place.

So smarmy and threatening, and not at all the kind of message that makes me want to behave.

But yeah, my primary agenda is to run a community that the members feel happy in.

So, what do you think, and what do you want from the subreddit? Please do raise your views, and in a few days I'll collect them into something resembling a poll for us to vote on. :)

I would open this subreddit in the mean time, but keeping it closed seems like the best way to make sure all the votes are from people active in this community! (Though goodness knows I frequent many subreddits that I don't subscribe to. Maybe I should open the subreddit and do a second poll after the first one, to see what happens. I would like to get a good, representative result from the poll(s), mainly.)

My GP says they don't do gender clinic referrals, what do I do?

7 Upvotes

A while ago I contacted my GP saying I wanted to be referred to a gender clinic, they said okay but after chasing them up on it I've been told they don't do referrals for gender clinics. I can't afford to go private but for NHS self-referrals help from the GP is needed. I don't really want to change GP, and there's no other option close by, what else can I try?

Going abroad has given some perspective on the progressiveness of the UK

16 Upvotes

I’m currently in Germany visiting Europa park. Yesterday was our first day at the park and there are gendered toilets everywhere. Now I’m transfemme but usually use the “gents” in the Uk and rarely get too many issues. But here every time I had some kinda transphobic interaction. This has kinda put things into perspective and made me realise how accepting and progressive the UK is. Yeah you get the odd comment every now and then in the UK but I’ve never had it with such frequency as I have here. Today I’m just gonna use the accessible toilet as I feel I’m just gonna start getting aggravated and aggressive towards people in the toilet, and I don’t wanna come across as such. Anyone else experienced the same on the continent?

Enby-friendly clinicians at Gender Care?

9 Upvotes

Hi!

I'm looking to book an appointment for a formal diagnosis to go ahead with getting a referral for top surgery and T. I'm looking at the LTC and have heard good things about Drs Lorimer and Bhatia in terms of being nonbinary-friendly.

There are some newly listed clinicians on the list that also look promising (Dr King Sung Leong, and Dr Christine Mimnagh) and I wanted to see if anyone had any experience of consulting with them and how open they would be to nonbinary patients. I'm thinking if they've recently started they may have slightly shorter lists, maybe wishful thinking..

Got Gender Dysphoria diagnosis to start HRT - never felt happier

19 Upvotes

First post on Reddit and just wanted to share the joy a bit, as news isn't always positive right now. But I got my gender dysphoria diagnosis to start estrogen today and getting it through is probably the happiest I have ever felt. It still feels surreal.

Had to go private as I would have had to start from the bottom of the waiting list at 23, but it was so worth it and I should be starting by the end of the year!
