Mx is meant to be the gender neutral term. Otherwise I guess it would be Miss because Eddie identifies as a woman and isn’t married? I’m not really sure but that’s how I would approach it...on the very slim chance I ever meet them!!
I would think the majority do they just don’t wish to walk about it or are too scared to talk about it. I bet if you asked every single (cis) woman in Scotland they would have an opinion and I would hazard a guess it wouldn’t all be positive.
What does ‘dickpander’ mean? I’ve not come across that before!

Just pandering to men and their wishes I’d imagine.
It's funny 'cause it's true.

My Mum loved getting to finally change everything to Dr when she got hers (I was 12 at the time). She also always filled out forms for my sister and I with Ms, even when we were kids, and went by Ms before the Doctorate too.
This may already have been mentioned; I haven’t read the whole thread....
Happened to come across a clip of Flo and Joan (who I used to find mildly amusing) including a nasty line about JKR in one of their songs.
What’s the betting they haven’t got a clue what she actually said? Silly bints.

What was the nasty line? Are they the ones who did the awful Nationwide advert? 
i saw it on Live At The Apollo a few weeks back. It was just unnecessary. A shame as I was enjoying it up to that point.

Something like ‘our expert in trans rights is a wizard loving author
‘Sit down JK Rowling off you f*ck to Azkaban’
Sounds as hilarious as those Nationwide ads
Yes, I saw this too. Can’t say I really liked their Nationwide ad, it wasn’t my thing at all and I found it quite annoying (although very creative).
NHS trust uses 'chestfeeding' as trans-friendly term - BBC News
Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals Trust said it won't exclude "the language of motherhood".
www.google.co.uk
more erasure and crazyness"We are taking a gender-additive approach to the language used to describe our services," a statement from the hospital explains.
It adds that "a gender-additive approach means using gender-neutral language alongside the language of womanhood, in order to ensure that everyone is represented and included".
Oh FFS. The genderless nonsense is bad enough but leave?
I've never had time off work for period pain in my entire life. Do these people think that this will help in terms of women's employment? My husband just said that if this was a law he wouldn't employ a woman if thought she would be taking leave every month, he'd just employ a man.
So every 4 weeks I could've taken a few days off wow! And to think I thought it was ‘just something you have to put up with.’
I really dislike the idea of 'period leave'. I actually think it creates more taboo around menstruation, the idea that for that time women aren't going to be 'functioning' members of society.
Also, it will do nothing to improve the already dire treatment women with conditions such as endometriosis receive from the health service. Pain so crippling you can't move? Doesn't matter, its not like you are having to go to work and be economically useful so put up with it!
Yes, it just hurts women's employability more, doesn't it?
I have every sympathy for women who do suffer badly with their periods or have conditions such as endometriosis, but this doesn't help women at all. A man doing the same job would have every right to feel aggrieved if his female colleagues were allowed extra sick leave.
This image implies that blind women, Muslim women and women who use wheelchairs are not real women, and would appreciate being included under the term "people who bleed".
