I first posted this in March 2014 on another platform. I am posting it now, here, because I realised I wanted everything important to me to be in one place. @AngharadsWife asked me the other day if I could remember the first time I masturbated. I can’t remember why the topic came up but sheContinue reading “Orgasmic”

Breasts!
In a moment of sheer madness, caused by the urgent need to change the subject and knowing that this could only be done with something sensational, I heard myself announcing that I had a collection of famous breasts on my phone. As the tumbleweed blew around the room in the ensuing stunned silence, I realised that this was one of those moments when the idea should have been thought through and rejected as a plan.
On Fancying Men
I first blogged this in February 2014. I am reblogging it now as I want everything about me in the same place. I realise that my Tumblr account has become almost exclusively “likes” and “rebloggs.” This actually follows on from my first post on here which you can find here: https://charlotte-j.co.uk/2014/04/07/2/ Seven years ago myContinue reading “On Fancying Men”
Feminist solidarity empowers everyone. The movement must be trans-inclusive
This is a powerful and wonderful article by Zoe Williams. In it she explains why she has been wrong in not writing about trans issues for 10 years and argues that the feminist, climate and trans campaigns should be about acceptance and inclusivity.
A Letter to my Wife

My lovely Wife I have been the happiest I have ever been over the last few months. I have loved Christmas thisContinue reading “A Letter to my Wife”
LGBT Reception Review
I have come away from the LGBT Youth Scotland Reception at the Scottish Parliament feeling really upbeat. The event was brilliantly compared by 2 MSYPs, C-Jay Quigley and Owen Brand, each of whom gave some testimony of their work. The opening performance by a group of young people highlighting the battle to repeal section 28Continue reading “LGBT Reception Review”
LGBT Youth Scotland
I am at the Scottish Parliament to attend a reception for LGBTYS. I have no idea what to expect but I am looking forward to it. I will report back later. While I was waiting I went to watch the Scottish Parliament sitting. Way more efficient than Westminster. The electronic voting system meant that theyContinue reading “LGBT Youth Scotland”
The Ether
This is the first blog in which I have managed to write more than a few posts. I love the idea of a blog in the same way that I loved the idea of writing a diary when I was a teenager. My room was littered with notebooks with, at most, two entries and IContinue reading “The Ether”
To Be or Not To Be (Me), that is the (toilet) question!
I have my next meeting at the Gender Identity Clinic on Thursday! Yeah, gulp. How does that make me feel? Anxious, divided, undecided, excited, shaky, positive, disloyal, over joyed, frustrated, negative, …… You get the picture! But surely this should be a good thing. This is what I have been looking forward to, working towards,Continue reading “To Be or Not To Be (Me), that is the (toilet) question!”
