Very quietly, it would appear.

IMO - ( covering myself and MN Grin) Dr Jessen is quite odd.

Clare Short was on R4 this morning - very sensible and unpretentious IMO. Matthew Paris - I hope you were listening!

Sexual repression indeed! MP is normally better than this.

Shakes head in disbelief at such nonsense.

Puffins - Exactly - and when he was pulled up about it by an FGM campaigner he blocked her

He is vile.

Yy Yonic, I was just pointing it out because gay men are often seen as allies of women e.g. Gok Wan but scratch beneath the surface nd the misogyny soon rises, as with everyone else.

Jessen is vile. .

Dr Jessen sent a woman for labiaplasty. Her labia were ugly or something. From the minute he did that, I knew he was a misogynist twatbadger with as much to tell me about my life as a hedgehog.

SauceForTheGander · 25/01/2015 19:49

Dr Jessen is turning into Gok Wan - what with his new Diet Wars show and tweeting CHEEKY. Maybe Mumsnet should invite him to do a webchat as well. Grin

I wonder if he thought the Sun were being cheeky when they sent page 3 models to Clare Short's house in the 90s. Just a bit of banter innit - "Crazy Clare" can't take a joke....

Plenty of straight men (and women) spout sexist nonsense!

scallopsrgreat · 25/01/2015 15:16

There is a lot of evidence to support that chockbic.

chockbic · 25/01/2015 15:12

I think some gay men don't like women that much. Considering the sexist nonsense that some of them spout.

scallopsrgreat · 25/01/2015 15:11

Dr Jessen . Another gay man pontificating on women's lives.

PuffinsAreFictitious · 25/01/2015 13:04

Let's not forget Dr Jessen's input as well. It's just bantz, innit.

chockbic · 25/01/2015 12:53

True I could barely believe what had been written and published.

Let's hope not too many people take him seriously.

chocoluvva · 25/01/2015 11:12

Ooh - I'm disappointed in Matthew Paris.

But he's only one, middle-aged man.

SardineQueen · 25/01/2015 09:45

Hello puffins Smile

chockbic · 24/01/2015 23:04

Whole article is the same. Couldn't see or read any irony or sarcasm.

PuffinsAreFictitious · 24/01/2015 20:47

Have missed you!

SardineQueen · 24/01/2015 20:34

Hello Smile

I have been here but just namechange from time to time!

Can't see the whole article.

Obviously it is a terrible idea for everyone to give in to their basest urges because that would mean a massive increase in sexual harrassment, sexual assault, rape. What is he on about Confused

Can only assume it makes sense in the context of the whole article?

PetulaGordino · 24/01/2015 18:22

I know of him as the presenter of Great Lives on radio 4, and he always comes across well on there

chockbic · 24/01/2015 18:16

It doesn't read sarcastic but I didn't know him before today.

PetulaGordino · 24/01/2015 18:12

Manet was a flaneur - it was all about the male gaze

YonicScrewdriver · 24/01/2015 18:09

Ah, yes, the very one.

I can't read the whole thing but he's normally sound-ish - he wasn't trying for sarcasm, was he, chock?

PetulaGordino · 24/01/2015 18:09

I'd forgotten he was gay. Presumably no teenage breasts required then

PetulaGordino · 24/01/2015 18:07

If he can't get aroused without seeing teenage breasts then I'm sorry for him - he's missing out on a whole world of marvellous sexual experience

He's missed the point about Manet too so showing a lot of ignorance there

I give into my lust frequently, it just doesn't involve the objectification of 50% of the population

YonicScrewdriver · 24/01/2015 18:07

Matthew Paris, the ex conservative Mp? Who is gay?
