Karen ingala-Smith vs India "I'm a real woman" Willoughby on Good morning Britain (ITV)

Dr Nicola Williams vs Aimee "non-man of the Green Party" Chanellor on Nick Ferrari (LBC) - this was brilliant and well worth a listen, if you only pick one!!

Karen and India round two on Julia Hartley-Brewer (talk radio)

Yes that's her.

Isn't Karen Ingala Smith the woman who does the 'Counting Dead Women' blog? She is great.

I feel annoyed that I have to be on the same page as Nick Bloody Ferrari on this, he is the absolute worst of the mansplainers and is such a condescending twat, but needs must I guess.

Does anyone have links to these?

James O'Brien is BFFs with Paris Lees. I imagine he is one of the 'trans exclusionary in the sheets' types though.

Dr Nicola Williams was totally fab on Nick Ferrari's show. Ferrari backed her completely. Was just laughing on another thread about NF adopting a feminist position on anything!

Nauticant, James O'Brien is fully down the rabbit hole on this. He was especially nasty to a female caller a few weeks ago who was objecting to gender neutral changing rooms

what kind of person goes into that job actively knowing that they will upset women, for their own validation?

An excellent point. Bugger -does this mean I'm going to have to start agreeing with JHB? Smile

JHB was... not too bad. She seems to get it, despite her dodgy views on other subjects.

She said that (paraphrased) obviously "male bodied people" will be triggering for women with ptsd from abuse, so what kind of person goes into that job actively knowing that they will upset women, for their own validation?

India thinks that shouting something at us, loudly, again and again, makes it the truth.

I think Karen's mad brave to do JHB.

I'd like to hear James O'Brien about this. No because I'd expect any sense from him but so that it would be on record how utterly and completely wrong he was.
