At some point in the next two or three weeks, you're going to need a child/family friendly Christmas Quiz for a class party or family get together. I made this one a few years ago - people tell me it works from About Yr 4 upwards - right up to adults.

Shame on the @iocmedia for allowing women to be beaten up by men as a sport. RT if you agree #ShameOnTheIOC
This has to stop. Biological men should not be competing against women in any sport.

So well said. Being a woman is not a thought.
Bridie Nolan, barrister for @salltweets in landmark women’s rights case #TicklevGiggle, dismantles applicant’s case that Roxy Tickle is ‘psychologically’ a woman 💥💥💥
“What is a woman, if thinking one is a woman, means one is a woman? A woman is not a thought.
The applicant’s lawyer’s summation of a woman is not only deeply offensive but absurd – how one dresses, where one shops, etc.
Both sexes can shop on the opposite side of the aisle.
The more troubling and insidious aspect of the applicant’s evidence, is that there is this entitlement to access spaces where the female sex go, proving incontrovertibly that the applicant does not have the psychology of a woman.
Our society recognises the importance of single-sex spaces in certain circumstances – female-only toilets, dormitories etc – to keep women safe from male violence. These are the very places the applicant says he goes.
When a woman who is biologically born and always so - whether she has had her reproductive organs removed or not, whether she thinks she’s a male or not - walks through a dark park in the middle of the night, she does not stop to think: I wonder what side of Kmart this person shops from, have they had their facial hair removed, have they told people in the workplace whether they’re a woman or not?
She doesn’t do that. She doesn’t stop for one second to do that.
She senses instinctively what she perceives to be a threat. She tightens her fingers around her keys. She speeds up.
If a man truly had the psychology of a woman, he would know that and not enter female-only spaces.
This proves the applicant lacks the psychology of a woman. That the applicant is not a woman.”

Are you travelling by @SouthernRailUK this weekend? My friend Lucie desperately needs your help. She has spent nine months hand making this beautiful quilt out of disused kimono silk for her oldest friend's brand new baby:
