One motto of @uk.theconversation.com is
"Academic rigour"
But very little rigour by both author and editor:
"Any athlete whose test shows the presence of the SRY gene will be banned from the women’s category."
That is false, because CAIS athletes can compete.

IOC: "The Ethics of Sex Verification"
Predictably, there has been some push-back to the new IOC policy about who may compete in the female category.
My colleague, John Pike, and I discuss a few of these objections in The Philosophers' Magazine - link below.

Good news.
'The MHRA has suggested the minimum age limit of those taking part should be increased to 14, and that there should be more detailed monitoring of bone density and a more rigorous consent process for participants.'
But 14 is still too young.

KFC, Nando's, Burger King and others ditch chicken welfare pledge.
It is about profits.
They prefer "franken-chickens" which mature quicker but have higher rates of premature death and muscle disease.
What are people eating?
Customers not told anything about chicken welfare.

Somewhere in England is a woman who fled life-threatening violence & multiple brutal rapes from her male partner. She now is staying in domestic violence refuge.
The mere presence of any male triggers her into flashbacks & nightmares. Causes suicidal ideation.
But she is in a safe space, finally.

I hear that GC beliefs are not welcome on Bluesky. Here goes:
"Trans women are not women."
This is a protected belief under the 2011 UK Equality Act. See the ruling in the Forstater case.
