Dr. Who Fans Applaud Trans Storyline

Funnily enough I enjoyed that episode. It's been going downhill for some time for me as I never was impressed with the female character for the doctor. Interestingly the only time when I really noticed the trans angle was with the bit with the Meep. The rest, I didn't really notice. This was maybe the first time they have introduced such controvertial characters and not pushed them to the extent of making me cringe with their political correctness. They even got someone in a wheelchair who was not pushed in your face. Can we hope that the 'non white' doctor will not be running an alternate crusade and just integrate?

I watched it with my son who is possibly transgender, it was certainly a good episode and introducing Rose was I thought done very well.

It actually lead to an enlightening conversation between us.

The whole thing seemed to give my son a boost I'm sure it did for others as well.

Excellent. I enjoyed watching Yasmin Finney in Heartstopper on Netflix. Dr. Who has always been progressive and adapted to issues of modern times. I read another article about conservatives complaining about Dr. Who being woke. But surprise surprise, Dr. Who has been "woke" for 60 years.

      I'm a masculine woman. It's not about masculinity though. It's about expanding what it means to be a woman.

      It never rains but it pours.  We had a dry spring, but now my garden is a swamp and my yard is a pond.  Get off the gravel road, and you'd need a hovercraft.    With nothing better to do, I'm going on a short trip with my husband tomorrow.  Since he's in management he usually doesn't do this sort of work, but whenever he does I usually go along.  And he already knows not to try staying in a hotel, because I want to sleep in the bunk in the truck.  So much more cozy.    And for a couple of days, GF can actually take care of her own kids instead of leaving them to me....

      I have played clarinet, but without talent.  And while I *can* sing, I think listening to it would be an acquired taste.

      Hi Sally, okay I'll head on over to your post and check out your makeup techniques.
    • Sally Stone
      Hey all,   It's been a while, but I blogged a whole series on makeup.  It's an eight-part series where I talk about my techniques.   Here is the link to Part 1:       Hopefully the blog series is helpful.

      Oh, I can relate to that one Vicky, leaving lipstick in hot weather  I've lost count how many times I had to purchase new purses. 
    • Ladypcnj
      Thanks for the replies, as an admin from my own group I understand the same rules, agreed.

      Any links posted would have to meet this criteria  All content posted or shared through TransPulse services must be appropriate for minors. We welcome members aged 13 to 18. As such, adult or pornographic content, nudity, underwear images, violence, gore, and other content not suitable for minors may not be posted anywhere to this service.

      I do spoken word acting, and give Trans 101 talks and other public speaking.  I wear make-up for those occasions.  Sephora is easy for me to get to, and has a foundation that does a good job for me and the sales folks there are Trans Friendly.  Their eye shadow pallets are also fun to use. Another source of my foundation is Ulta which carries Dermablend that does a consistent job of my lower face and chin.   I just use good old Revlon lipsticks because I ruin them by leaving my purse in the hot car too often.

      I'm not interested in makeup, jewelry or nice clothes or girly stuff.  It's made me wonder at times.   It saves some money.  If I wore a skirt it would likely  be denim.  I thought about a woman's skirt suit but nah.   Neither of my sisters are into that stuff either.  One likes peasant chic (still a 60s flower girl)  and the other - the only time she has ever worn a dress was at her wedding.  Jeans at all other times.   Jeans and t shirt here.  Content being a girl.  Weirdo. Weirda? Never mind.

      @Ladypcnj Before posting links to other group's websites, PM one of the Staff (preferably an Admin) and have them check that site out.   We have specific rules here regarding age appropriateness and would need to know that the other site is in line with those rules.  We do have members here between 13 and 18 and other sites need to be safe for that age range, legally and otherwise.  Also, we are not a dating or pick-up site, not do we allow people selling things to advertise here.  As I said clear the link with a moderator or admin before posting it.  Mod's and admins do check out posts and if we find problem links we will remove them and notify the OP of a rules violation.  Go to https://www.transgenderpulse.com/community-rules to understand where we are.

      I raise my hand in the group, I have a question and a suggestion... is it allowed to share other new lgbtq+ website links here? 
    • Ladypcnj
      Yeah, ELF is a good brand, another brand is Revlon ColorStay last 24 hours.
