Bingo Allison becomes England's first non-binary priest

Bingo Allison, first non-binary priest recognized by the Church of England: "God was leading me«

Allison Bingo, 36 years old, is the first nonbinary priest from england to be recognized by the Anglican Church. Allison maintained a masculine identity when he began his preparation in the seminary to be ordained as a priest, but declared himself as no binary when he was still vicar, that is, auxiliary to the Bishop, because he does not identify himself as a man, but neither as a woman. He now dedicates himself to visiting schools of Liverpool for young people to approach religion and has publicly expressed its support for the community LGTBI +.

Church St. Margaret of Antioch, located in Liverpool, ordained him as a priest and now he is dedicated to visiting schools of Liverpool for young people to approach religion. He has also publicly expressed his support for the community LGTBI +. He is a supporter of gay marriage and works for the visibility of trans people.

"My views used to be very traditional and certainly very conservative. Some might call them intolerant and there was a lot of ignorance and a lot of otherness. I didn't take the time to learn from other people's experiences"He assured Allison Bingo, who declared no binary when he was still serving as vicar. He decided to remain with a masculine identity until the end of his preparation as a priest.

He admits that he had conservative thoughts, that some could even qualify as intolerant against the community LGTBI +, since he grew up hearing that gay people «they were sinful«, but in his spiritual retreats his ideology changed. “It was a deeper spiritual experience, I correctly felt that God was leading me to this new truth about myself.Allison stated.

Self-discovery

Bingo Allison becomes England's first non-binary priestWhen he was training as a vicar, he came across the term «queer» with which he now identifies and although at first he thought of abandoning his vocation, it was during a journey of religious self-discovery that he realized that homosexuality was not a bad thing.

As the priest recalled, he was writing an essay on how God created the Earth when he came across the biblical text: «And God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them: Genesis 1:27", and there he had a revelation when he realized that God was referring to"masculinity and femininity» and did not speak of men or women.

"One of the things that has stayed with me in my ministry is that transition and coming out can and should be a spiritual experience as well as an emotional, social, and sometimes physical experience."He says.

The Government will regularize the situation of the two Senegalese who defended Samuel

The entities criticize the request for "heroic" behavior to access these rights

El Government works to regularize the situation of the two men of Senegalese origin, Ibrahima y makate, who tried to help Samuel Luis, the 24-year-old assassinated in a brutal beating in Coruña. Witnesses have assured the police that both Ibrahima and Makate were actively involved in defending Samuel from his assailants.

They both had a "active intervention”In defense of Samuel while he was being beaten by the group of young people who chased him along the Riazor promenade. This was said this Tuesday by the Government delegate in Galicia, Jose Miñones. He himself has been the one who has confirmed that the Secretary of State for Migration is already working to regularize the situation in Spain of these two citizens of African origin.

They both have no papers. "This is where we want to act. The objective is that they can have a work permit", has said Minions, while ensuring that the testimony of both "has been key in the investigation”. The two collaborated with the police in the investigations, despite their delicate situation in Spain. Their statements have helped arrest and bring to justice the six main perpetrators of the fatal beating.

A claim from Samuel's friends

Samuel's friends met  Ibrahima, after the massive concentration held in A Coruña two days after the murder, starring in an emotional reunion. That the authorities arrange his papers for his exemplary attitude has been one of the demands of Samuel's closest environment.

This Senegalese man, 35 years old and a fisherman by profession, has spent almost three years in Spain. He was with his friend makate in the vicinity of the promenade of Riazor when the events happened. One covered the young man with his body and another tried to stop the blows in the first phase of the fight. Although there were more people walking down the street at that time, they were the only ones who tried to avoid the beating.

Ibrahima is currently engaged in street vending. He survives on what he sells until his papers are fixed. If your situation is regularized and you get a work permit, Ibrahima I could work in the fishing industry.

From clandestine to heroes

It is not the first case in which permits are regularized for people who have carried out acts «heroic«. Last year, the same Secretary of state granted residence and work permit to Gorgui Lamine Sow , a young Senegalese who had rescued a man with reduced mobility caught in a fire in Dénia. In France, Macron granted nationality to Mamoudou Gassama, a Malian resident in Paris who saved a 4-year-old boy hanging from a balcony in 2018.

Entities and groups of migrants have criticized the asking of heroic behaviors of migrants to access rights that should be for everyone: «We want to point out to the Government that manipulating "meritocracy" to regularize migrants eludes the responsibility of the State to equal ourselves in access to rights, regardless of how functional we are to wash away racism. We are 600.000!»Have tweeted from the account @RegularizacionY.

Elon Musk removes protection policies for trans people from Twitter

The latest version of the Twitter rules no longer includes the prohibition of referring to a user by their previous name or wrong pronouns

The latest update of the policy of use of Twitter has eliminated the rules that prevented practicing "deadnaming”, as the practice of mentioning a user is known tranny by his former name. that policy, approved in 2018, made it possible to delete messages that abused trans users in this way, so that five years later, the network may be a less safe place for them.

This is the latest change to the terms of use of the platform, transformed since its acquisition by Elon Musk. The mogul has advocated in the past to remove previous restrictions on behalf of the freedom of expression, even if that means removing the protections that users used to enjoy. The last modification, above all, draws special attention for covertly attacking one of its daughters.

It is curious that the businessman has changed a policy that allowed reporting messages that violate gender identity, when his daughter vivian jenna wilson (18) is a transgender person. It is not surprising that she does not want to have any relationship with her father and has disowned him.

A discreet change that facilitates the harassment of trans users

Elon Musk removes protection policies for trans people from Twitter

"The decision Twitter to quietly reverse its old policy is the latest example of how unsafe the company is for both users and advertisers”, he stated in a statement Sarah Kate Ellis, president and CEO of advocacy group GLAAD, the world organization for LGTBI rights.

Ellis added that the policy change Twitter takes you away from other platforms like TikTok, Pinterest or Meta, who maintain policies “to protect its transgender users at a time when online rhetoric against this group is leading to real-world discrimination and violence".

The previous policy of Twitter prohibited other users from attacking with “repeated slurs, tropes, or other content that is intended to dehumanize, demean, or reinforce negative or harmful stereotypes about a protected category”. But, after removing a line that specifically alluded to "misgendering or deadnaming”, the company of Musk has left trans users unprotected.

Twitter has taken a step back as far as security for trans users is concerned and is on par with platforms such as Instagram, Facebook or YouTube They also lack this type of security measures.

They can and do develop more types of third-party attractions, such as aesthetic or intellectual attraction, but it definitely won't be sexual. This does not mean, for example, that they do not express that someone may seem attractive to them, nor that they cannot have and do have sexual or intimate relationships with other people, understanding intimacy all the components that a relationship has (complicity, affection, affection, kisses , hugs…)«, explains the psychologist Paula Alcaide on your blog.

The objectives of Asexual Awareness Week are:

  • Promote the understanding that there is a diversity of sexual and romantic orientations, including asexuality and aromanticism.
  • Help people on the asexual and aromantic spectrum not feel lonely or "flawed."
  • Help other people to really understand what asexuality and aromanticism mean and debunk the myths about these issues.
  • Promote the understanding that love and sex are not intrinsically related and that the lack of one does not make the other less important.
  • Promote the understanding that aromantic people can feel non-romantic love.

In principle they were offered to finance breast implant operations and travel expenses to Spain, lying about the living conditions that would be found when arriving at their destination. Apparently they were aware that they were coming to practice prostitution, but once they arrived in Spain they learned that the debt they had incurred rose to 15.000 €. The first thing their captors did was to remove the documents so that they could not flee and make them available 24 hours of the day to satisfy the demands of their exploiters.

The living and working conditions were absolutely subhuman: the 24 people lived in a crowded space, litter piled up in rooms with little space to move between them, garbage, damp patches on the walls and grime everywhere.

In addition to their obligation to perform pro-choice, they also had to provide drugs to their clients, viagra and other narcotic substances, which caused the sexual despondency to disburse large amounts of money to the clientele.

The difficult conditions of life were increased with frequent punishments, which usually consisted of fines that increased the initial debt. The calculation of the police raises to 4000 € monthly the benefits that the pimps obtained for each victim, in total The profits of the network exceeds one million euros in the last five years.

In this sense, it considers that «it is the best way to be able to recognize a right and not to lose others«.

For his part, the president Fernandez considered that approval of equal marriage «it was the beginning of this whole journey towards diversity«, Remembering the law that has been in force since 2010. Recently Argentina also passed a law that established a trans job vacancy in the national public administration.

The fear of sanctions has had an intimidating effect that is stopping citizens from providing, seeking and receiving information about sexual orientation and gender identity."said the person in charge of the LGTBI area of Amnesty International Hungary, Eszter Mihály.

«This law has no place in Hungary and is promoting the increase in stigmatization and negative stereotypes of LGTBI people. It must be repealed immediately and steps must be taken to repair the damage it has caused."He reiterated Michael.

The RAE incorporates the pronoun "elle" in its observatory of words

Inclusive language makes its way into the RAE's word observatory

GAYLES.TV.- Languages ​​are alive and mutating. They are not something static and immovable, they have to adapt to new realities. The use of inclusive language has drawn the attention of Observatory of words full Royal Spanish Academy (RAE). Historically, this institution had been reluctant to incorporate the use of more inclusive words, but it seems that a gap has opened.

One of the last linguistic movements The one that has generated the most controversy and debate is that of inclusive language, which proposes using the letter "E" as a replacement for "O" as a vowel that encompasses all genders. The RAE, founded in 1713, recently included in its observatory the finished "elle", which he defines as “a resource created and promoted in certain areas to refer to those who may not feel identified with either of the two traditionally existing genres. Its use is not widespread or established".

Living tongue

The RAE incorporates the pronoun "elle" in its observatory of wordsThis is an important milestone because two years ago the same institution rejected the use of expressions such as “todxs "," todes "or" tod @ s”. Although the presence of a term by the Observatory of words It does not imply that the institution accepts its use, it is good news and indicates that there is a linguistic interest in it. And is that the Observatory is a space that "provides information on words (or meanings of words) and expressions that currently do not appear in the dictionary".

Current laws in many countries aim to exercise the right to identity from self-determination. But these regulations continue to offer sex and gender markers from a binary spectrum: female / male and female / male. He Observatory full RAE He has not only made this approach to inclusive language with the pronoun "elle." He has also included in his list of words to check «transphobia "and" transphobic / or«. This is an advance for the linguistic universe of sexual diversity, although it is still necessary for the body to recognize these terms.

"It turns out that the European institutions change the flags of the nations for the flag LGTBIQ +, in the White House, in the Capitol and even the embassy of U.S. in the Vatican”, he assured.

This critique has focused on the American case. Munilla referred to a tweet by the US president Joe Biden, in which he celebrated with a rainbow flag in the Casa Blanca to be "a proud country”. The bishop welcomed the response that the representative of the Catholic Church in Texas who assured him thatremember that pride comes before the fall".

Bishop Munilla against the LGTBIQ+ collectiveIt is then that the Bishop of Orihuela-Alicante defends that “the rainbow has been completely disfigured". "We have to go to Genesis to discover that the rainbow is the image of the alliance”, he has defended. “Now it goes from being a sign of the alliance with God to a symbol of pride in which the being separates from God”, he lamented. “It is a symbol of detachment, the prevalence of desire over the law of God, the natural law.", has added.

The rainbow, he continued, is "a kind of Tower of Babel that rises defiantly”. However, he has defended that it fell "because what is built on the mud does not have consistency". "This also has feet of clay, gender ideology, ideology LGTBIQ +”, he has defended. “It is built against the very being of man, of nature, against reality”, he insisted. “Forcing reality only leads to unhappiness”, has settled.

Munilla: a very controversial ultra bishop

His resume of grotesque statements dates back to 2018. In statements in Radio Maria, Munilla He assured that there are two feminisms: «the feminine«, which seeks the juridical and legal equality of men and women, and one «radical or gender» who wants to equate the two sexes in all aspects. This second one has like «victim the woman herself and the true feminine cause«. And she finished it off: «It's funny how the devil can score a goal from the same ranks. Feminism, having assumed gender ideology, has become a kind of harakiri", he came to say. According to Munilla, feminism defends causes such as «lesbianism and bisexualism" Y "free and free abortion«, which has meant a «female genocide» in many parts of the world where it is used so that women are not born.

Su LGBTophobia It was also evident in 2021 when he qualified the homosexuality as a neurosis.

En Donostia they wanted to get rid of it. During his bishopric he highlighted his ultras ideas attacking homosexuals, went so far as to affirm that they have to suffer a «process to heal the disease they suffer«. Of the the Basque Country He went out the back door. in november 2009, 75% of priests de Gipuzkoa positioned against his appointment as the new bishop, but he was then appointed by the ultra-conservative roco varela.

So when Spacey claimed to be innocent in the Massachusetts court, he asked for a forensic copy  "Complete and unaltered" of the plaintiff's phone data. But the young man said he had lost it during the trial hearings. As it was a key piece to support the defense of the accused, it was decided to dismiss the charges.

In any case it would be just one of the 30 complaints of harassment and assault that Kevin Spacey is currently pending in courts of Los Angeles and England. Spacey's nightmare began shortly after the appearance of the #MeToo movement and although the two-time Oscar winner publicly apologized, it was too late because the chain of accusations against him had been fired. In most cases they are men and many of them were minors when the events occurred. You can retrieve the information in the text "Sexual abuse, Kevin Spacey in the spotlight".
