My news... it is my nervous and joyous pleasure to tell you all that I am gay. A gay woman. Lesbian if you will. It’s something I’ve come to later in life (usual for me) but very much here and queer now. If you would like to hear more pls listen below. Much love ET ❤️🏳️‍🌈👭

One thing people can do differently this time is resist the urge to call him a “monster”. Suggesting theres something supernatural about him is a narrative that obfuscates the risk men pose to women. Let him be what he is. A man. A man did this. #SarahEverard

Lower covid numbers in countries with female leaders doesn’t mean women are better leaders. What’s happened is that the kind of voters who would elect a woman are better at seeing how their behaviour affects others which is a strength in a pandemic. Hence their numbers are low 😎
