I am #NotABot

I’ve been tweeting in my name for 10+ years

I’ve been tweeting #KeepPrisonsSingleSex since 2018 when I realised how women’s sex based rights were being rolled back, with the most vulnerable women paying the highest price

#NotBots As historian & lecturer, I tweeted mainly about history

When I defended women’s sex-based rights, #twitterstorians blocked & unfollowed me

Most women can’t afford to face professional & personal ostracism

I tweeted more for women who can’t

1823 Gaol Act ruled prisoners in England & Wales be kept separate by sex

“The male and female prisoners shall be confined in separate buildings or parts of the prison so as to prevent them from seeing, conversing or holding any intercourse with each other”

#KeepPrisonsSingleSex By law, a matron had to be employed to supervise the female side of each prison, with women assistants, while any male visitor, including the gaoler, had to be accompanied by a female official.
