One of the worst things about being a woman stuck in a man’s body is the awful choice there is at the moment in men’s clothes!

I have come away from the LGBT Youth Scotland Reception at the Scottish Parliament feeling really upbeat.

My Daughter wrote this article. Like all good journalism it is informative, challenging and thoughtful. I am very proud of her and, although I wish she was not conflicted in her relationship with me, I love that she has discussed it in this way and allowed me to share it with you all. It’sContinue reading “Am I a Hypocrite?”
