TODAY: our major new survey on attitudes to sexual consent - up to a third of adults still doubt it’s rape if no physical violence, if there’s flirting beforehand, if woman changes her mind & if it’s marriage/long term relationship #Ibelieveher #MeToo endviolenceagainstwomen.org.uk/major-new-surv…
Our survey also finds - 40% of people do not see ‘stealthing’ (removing a condom without consent) as rape; and there’s a big generational divide on attitudes to consent (over 65s less likely to see non-consent as rape) #Ibelieveher #MeToo
The attitudes are alarming - not only are these people potential jurors in rape trials, they are also the family & friends of women and girls who are assaulted, and they may question whether what happened was abusive & harmful #Ibelieveher #MeToo #16days

Today new data marks an advance towards the individualized diet
1. We knew our glucose response to food was highly variable and unique
(work form @WeizmannScience @segal_eran and colleagues, reviewed here
nytimes.com/2019/03/02/opi…
2. At #ADA2109 and #Nutrition2019, @timspector and colleagues reported the same for triglycerides and insulin levels in a large cohort of twins. The variability was also noteworthy in identical twins.

@NYTScience by @cagraber @nicolatwilley
3. The results summarized, emphasizing that the variability in response to food in these 3 metabolic metrics is striking, that they don't track each other, and that much of the heterogeneity is not genetically determined. The gut #microbiome is an important driver.

1. visto che è successo ieri? Una settimana fa una giornalista top del #Guardian,non una qualsiasi, quella che ha rivelato scandalo #CambridgeAnalytica,twitta una foto di personaggi legati alla presunta operazione di influenza da parte dei russi su elezioni2016 USA
2. la foto mostra 2personaggi del presunto "complotto" #Russia-#Trump che si incontrano a Londra. La giornalista #Guardian twitta: "plot tickens"(la trama s'infittisce) e scrive che il posto in cui si sono incontrati è la scalinata dell'ambasciata dell'Ecuador a Londra
3. anche un orbo riconoscerebbe che la scalinata indicata dalla giornalista del #Guardian NON è affatto quella dell'ambasciata dell'Ecuador a Londra: che è facilissima da riconoscere per il portone

The "Tusk didn't explain his position" line ignores the detailed explanation of the position which Barnier recently gave to the Commons. #DowningStreet
"Your rights will be protected in case of no deal" pledge to @The3Million - rather ambiguous #DowningStreet

#Today's story to #EndFamilySeparation Four months ago, Dad and 4-month-old entered at the Texas/Mexico border and requested #asylum. Dad and child were immediately separated and the baby put in ORR custody. #FamiliesBelongTogether
Dad was detained in a #Texas detention center where @RAICESTEXAS consulted. Dad accepted a deportation to be quickly reunited w/ his infant child. However, the Dad was deported & NOT his child. The now 8-month-old baby has been in ORR custody for 4 months. #EndFamilySeparation
The Mom and Dad now have once weekly Skype calls with their 8-month-old baby. That's right, folks. They Skype with an infant. #EndFamilySeparation #FamiliesBelongTogether

1) WHY WOMEN KEEP SILENT

So, I was raped when I was about four. It never occurred to me to say anything until I was about eleven.
2) At four, I didn't know what the term rape meant; I knew what had been done and that it wasn't right but who would I tell?? I was ashamed.
3) I remember thinking I'd be mortified if my parents ever found out I'd been a "participant" in this lewd act. God forbid they found out.
