Just that really.

Let's hope that 2019 brings a level of sanity to the whole trans debate.

Any wishes for the next year?

Thanks to you all. I'm an infrequent poster but constant reader of FWR. Like another poster I feel in a GC wilderness with my friends but I've recently started following twitter too and finding a number of GC people to follow locally. Maybe in 2019 I'll get braver and start re-tweeting and posting a bit more.

Happy New Year to all you fantastic women!

I hope to spend more time here than on twitter, like I did before this time last year, and keep pushing out the message in real life, bit by bit.

Happy and Prosperous New Year MNs!

💕 Love you all!

Another mostly lurker here - a very happy new year to all the brave and wise women who keep going and keep going and just bloody keep going responding and posting and informing regulars and lurkers alike. My wish is to reclaim the word 'woman' - so I don't have to wonder what a news article means!

Happy new year, lovely vipers!

Actually, not especially feminist, but right now I'd go for banning fireworks on animal welfare terms, our poor dog is shivering with fright.

I'm glad 2018 is coming to a close. Big gratitude for this community of sisters. I wish USA feminists had half as much insight, humor and resolve. Much love and many blessings for next year!

OlennasWimple · 01/01/2019 00:55

It's not quite 2019 where I am, so I'm still looking forward to next year - here's to a return of common sense, best practice safeguarding and liberation Wine

I'm going to kick off my new year of feminism with a trip to see On The Basis of Sex, which is out next year here. When does it open in the UK?

2019 Year of the Puuuuuuuuullllllll!

Love to all x

Happy New Year to everyone who's been through the radicalisation portal!

sackrifice · 01/01/2019 08:56

And those that are still missing in action.

Much love.

Happy New Year to all you wonderful women on here now, those fabulous women who paved the way but are no longer or MN, and the lovely posters yet to come.WineGinStar
My resolution for this year is to keep learning about feminism. And be a little braver.
Thanks for everything!

Ali1cedowntherabbithole · 01/01/2019 09:09

Happy New Year to everyone. May science and common sense prevail.

Melanippe · 01/01/2019 12:35

Thank you all for such a lovely and uplifting thread.

No matter what anyone says, MN FWR has been the source of some of the best friends and best discussions I've ever had.

Let's make this year the year women are liberated from the shackles of patriarchy!

Onward and upward!

Happy New Year! Here's to a greater role for reality and less gaslighting Wine

ErrolTheDragon · 01/01/2019 18:33

I just came across this, which I found cheering. I don't think it says anything we here don't know, but it's good to see it from a relative youngster.

My New Year resolution is to write, perhaps a letter a week, to organisations relevent to me, calling out any inaccurate conflation of sex and gender. I am only one, but we are many, and if enough voices are raised we will be heard.

A belated Happy New Year to all. Mine was a bust. A budget transatlantic airline dumped us onto an even more budget Spanish charter, the sort where you know what hair products the person in the row in front uses. I plan to order a LeedsSpinners t shirt as compensation to myself.
