@jrjoplin "Everybody thought I was a boy for a while" That's a really interesting way of thinking about it. As a cis person I'd never thought about it as a point of perception which needed to change, but a change if gender. If man transitions to a woman, that gender has always been 1/2

@planetjedward @ThisisDavina No one's saying all men are dangerous. There is a call to action for all men to play our part: educate ourselves/other men+boys, support women's rights and safety, take action on these issues. Those asks don't damage mental health. They create solidarity and empathy.

@Marcus_R_Scott @BarrowfordHead Marcus, sometimes it's just nice to share something positive. Not everything has to have an angle or a political cause. Just a positive moment in time. And if Rachel wants to share it, she can. That's the premise of social media.
