When you are shameless, you cannot be shamed. And so I write this feministgiant.com/p/moisturize-y… #MenopauseMona #FEMINISTGIANT
And this is a roundup of lubricants of various kinds and which uses inclusive language “A person may experience vaginal dryness due to hormonal changes during menopause.” medicalnewstoday.com/articles/best-…
It is with this inclusivity in mind that I teamed up with @unbounders to edit #BloodyHell, a menopause anthology that is global and gender diverse. Find out more here and pledge to help us complete our crowdfund unbound.com/books/bloody-h…

Feminism is not a few women hurdling over patriarchy's obstacles. Feminism is the destruction of those obstacles. feministgiant.com/p/essay-my-amb… #FEMINISTGIANT #NewYear2022
I’ve had one of those magical London nights, heightened by the fact that it’s been so long. And I jus broke the blind in the room where I’m staying, it feels almost silly to say, but it’s part of this upside down great night.
People are—can be—magical.
People are—can be—magical.
It was the kind of night where I discussed a book project with publishers—yes yes more info soon!—and anarchist feminism with a German restaurateur and Paula Rego’s retrospective at Tate Britain with a Portuguese waiter.
I miss people. I love people.
I miss people. I love people.
I am supremely humbled that people feel comfortable opening up to me.
I don’t always reflect on what a privilege it is but someone asked me tonight “Do people often do that? Open up to you like that?” and I guess they do, especially—intriguingly—cis hey men.

Speaking at @Abantu_ in South Africa was last leg in 2019 of #FeministGiant World Tour. It was a privilege & thrill to start it in #Sarajevo with #Bosnia’s first Pride and end it in #Soweto with #AbantuBookFest. Revolution in Sarajevo to revolution in Soweto. It’s been an honour!
Along the way,speaking at Pitchwise in #Sarajevo, @strandbookstore in #NYC, @RMWAdam in #Amsterdam, @McrLitFest in #Manchester, @akefestival in #Lagos, @wcfbook in #Chicago, also in #Brooklyn, #Ottawa, #Sydney, #Melbourne & turning #Australia upside down via TV. It’s been a ride!
So many incredible audiences & new friends along the way. Many thanks to all who came to hear me speak. Many thanks for the love and the gifts. So many powerful experiences. I’ve returned home full. Time now to reflect and then write about these three months. #FeministGiant
Relieved I was able to fly on Tuesday to be with my brother and his family for the holiday. This weather! Parents and sister and her husband drive to be with us tonight. It’s been a while and I’m grateful for this family reunion.
