@rood_en_groen @AlliantieLHB @SandraJ21977728 @len_norton @BROODBUIS Vrouwen zijn mensen van het vrouwelijk geslacht: materiële realiteit, niet een identiteit of een gevoel in jouw hoofd. Ons geslacht is significant, zowel als het gaat om onze gezondheid als de manier waarop we door de maatschappij behandeld worden. Kijk maar naar de manier waarop
@rood_en_groen @AlliantieLHB @SandraJ21977728 @len_norton @BROODBUIS onze relatief recent verworven rechten continue onder druk staan (recht op abortus, zwangerschapsverlof, vrouwensport, vrouwenfaciliteiten enz.) en wat #MeToo heeft laten zien over hoe vrouwen moeten navigeren in een wereld waarin we allereerst lustobjecten zijn.
@rood_en_groen @AlliantieLHB @SandraJ21977728 @len_norton @BROODBUIS Wereldwijd is ons geslacht de belangrijkste en betrouwbaarste voorspellende factor voor zaken als armoede en ongelijkheid. Waarom? Omdat mannen al millennia bepalen wat een vrouw is, wat een vrouw moet en wat er gebeurt met ons lichaam.
@rood_en_groen @AlliantieLHB @SandraJ21977728 @len_norton @BROODBUIS We leven in een seksistische maatschappij waarin vrouwen geseksualiseerd worden vanaf onze tienerjaren. En binnen deze context zijn er mannen die denken dat ze een realistisch beeld hebben van wat een vrouw is/voelt? Nah.

Halima Salat @halimasalat was disinvited as a speaker on #IWD2021 by the Global Sisterhood of the Dutch @womensmarchnl.

Let's make sure she's heard anyway, this is what she had wanted to say. vrij-links.nl/h-s-barre/ik-w… via @vrijlinks
I would like to have started sharing a story about my personal struggle against the hijab, which was first published in Sisterhood magazine. After that, I would have made a few arguments to substantiate that the hijab is not a matter of free choice, and that the hijab is
definitely a patriarchal chastity check over women's bodies.

I find it wrong, in the fight for freedom and self-determination, not to listen to the first-hand experiences and reports of women faced with violence, coercion and even imprisonment, because they made their

Dutch women who took an abortion pill are being persuaded by anti-abortion activists to urgently reverse that treatment by taking a medically risky "regret" pill.
Anti-abortion protesters at abortion clinics try to persuade women on the spot or refer them to the evangelical organization Er Is Hulp. A GP practice in Urk then writes out the prescriptions. The drug used, with the female sex hormone progesterone, is not registered as an
abortion pill stopper, says the Medicines Evaluation Board. The treatment can have serious effects on both the woman and her fetus, according to the Board.

One of the most well-known Dutch child gender professionals no longer treats children.

He said: "In the Netherlands we conduct structural research. But the rest of the world is blindly adopting our research."

Steensma: "Little research has yet been done on the treatment with puberty inhibitors and hormones in young people. That is why it is also seen as experimental. We are one of the few countries in the world that conducts ongoing research into this."
"In Great Britain, for example, only now, for the first time in all these years, a study of a small group of transgender people has been published. This makes it so difficult, almost all research comes from ourselves."
