The way I see it.
Is it just me, or do we live in a society which is driven by shallowness and selfishness, powered by a media which has a constant need for stories — whatever their merit. We are no longer citizens but consumers — and boy, can we consume. We’re stripping t ...

Type II Diabetes linked to fast food
Okay, it's stating the obvious but the evidence hasn't been clear before. As this affects several people who use this site, thought I'd post this link. The interesting thing is that going on a crash diet for a week (600 calories or less per ...

Corrective Rape in S. Africa
I really don't understand how some men think that raping a lesbian is going to 'cure' them. Surely, any effect it has is going to put them off being near men for life? It still seems to be happening and on almost epidemic scale in South Afr ...

Jamie- drag queen.
I watched the film about Jamie because I wanted to know more about where he was coming from, I didn't understand drag queens as a phenomenon, and I still don't. However, I had new respect for the lad's courage. He had two ambitions: to beco ...

Mammograms- the joys of womanhood
It doesn't take long- that's the best bit- a breast X-ray, which is just as well because it isn't the most comfortable experience I've ever had. I think this is my third or fourth time for one of these close encounters with a plastic c ...

'My Transsexual Summer'
I watched this against my better judgement- usually, I stay well away from cliche TV- and on the whole was pleasantly surprised. There were still cliches, Drew takes two and half hours each day to apply her makeup, and sadly looks like she should either b ...

Genderswitching to reinvent classic novels.
A bit of nonsense from the Guardian which I think is art imitating art, it was done here long since. See the link below to read it yourself including a passage of Shirley Holmes and Dr Jane Watson. http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2011/dec/23/classic-ficti ...
