It's been a very long time since I blogged. It hasn't completely escaped my mind though. I actually wrote this post in the middle of August, so excuse me writing about an event that has already happened, but I really didn't want to change a word. At the end of August,...

The Grand Unveiling and a Proud London
Well here it is, the first sexual health, HIV and wellbeing booklets for transwomen and transmen. Unfortunately I didn't make London Pride on the weekend. I wish I had, I haven't been since I went to university (that's 4 years!). But I was recovering from being on my...
Creative Juices Flowing (Part 3 of 3)
(continued from Part 2) Since I spotted the article featured on the cover of SAM, a question that has never left my mind is still screaming at me: What does it matter if my child is gay? Bering comes to this question himself “Why do parents worry so much about whether...
