James is going to be discussing trans issues today on LBC. His show is on now - not sure what time the segment will start, but should be good!

Moving on to brexit now... sigh

Talking about male rapist in women's prison actually detailing the case

MrsWooster · 19/03/2018 12:26

To his credit, he has researched and reported on the Martin Ponting case.

By the way, I want to thank everyone cheerleading on this thread. It's a big deal for me to do this - I was too scared to put my hand up at a Women's Place meeting just a few weeks back. I'm shaking like a leaf now, but having you all behind me and also knowing that I had to represent you as best I could really spurred me on.

Pratchet · 19/03/2018 12:26

Can I just shout out to the woman who was shut down - ooh is she coming back?

LanaKanesTerfyVagina · 19/03/2018 12:26

Jobs twitter feed full of men feeling sorry for men......zero understanding of womens feelings.

Elendon · 19/03/2018 12:26

I'm so glad I don't listen to this show. He sounds shouty and vile. Just for the sake of it. It's like Piers Morgan on speed.

Vile.

Hannah / Sweary, you were absolutely bloody marvellous. You are one hell of a brave woman - I would never ever have the guts to subject myself to James O'Brien and his bullying. Thank you so much for speaking up on behalf of all 'TERFs'. Be proud of yourself

O'Brien really outdid himself today. Clapping himself on the back for understanding the issue and being such a great feminist, while NAMALTing for all he's worth and demanding the right to come into women's changing rooms with his daughter. He doesn't get it. AT ALL. But thank you so much for trying Hannah

Nosetothesun · 19/03/2018 12:25

I think JOB will get there.... there's a lot more for him to absorb.
The last 2 full interviews can be unpicked.

Pratchet · 19/03/2018 12:25

That's it no more. Completely unbalanced!

Madmarchpear · 19/03/2018 12:24

I've gone right off him now. His inner entitled posh boy surfaced when waffling about the injustice he is being tarred with the same brush as sex offenders. The point made about how women have to be constantly vigilant of their personal safety was the death blow. She nailed it.

SwearyG · 19/03/2018 12:22

Where are the TIFs?

MrsWooster · 19/03/2018 12:22

Hard to see how the issues women are raising outweighs the needs of Caitlyn and Zoe. Are you on glue, job?

Ellenripleysalienbaby · 19/03/2018 12:22

See, James can't go down the 'if you have a penis you are male' route because his trans mates have Willies.

Pratchet · 19/03/2018 12:22

Hope we all are. Someone needs to call down this bilge.

Ellenripleysalienbaby · 19/03/2018 12:21

You don't have to search hard for the stories James - someone just mentioned one and you chucked her off the show!

GabeIsShocking · 19/03/2018 12:21

Marry women to do the wifework and have the children, then have an open pansexual relationship on the side.

Pratchet · 19/03/2018 12:21

Who's trying to phone in?

Mouthtrousersafrocknowandthen · 19/03/2018 12:20

Oh my god, just suck his cock James while you are at it

Ellenripleysalienbaby · 19/03/2018 12:20

'Chemically female' Hmm

MrsWooster · 19/03/2018 12:20

This Mtt has a sense of modesty. That's alright then. Women don't need that.

nauticant · 19/03/2018 12:20

JOB seems to see women as the enemy while has this weird flirting thing going on with the transwomen. I bet that would change in an instant if they made a pass at him.

LanaKanesTerfyVagina · 19/03/2018 12:20

YOU CANNOT BE CHEMICALLY FEMALE JAMES YOU TWAT UNLESS YOU ARE ACTUALLY BORN A WOMAN

sex offences at Target went up 3 fold after self id policy introduced:

Results: Sexual incidents increased over the course of the entire timeframe of the media reports. In particular, voyeurism-related offenses (Upskirt and Peeping Tom) increased significantly after the publication of Target’s gender-inclusion policy in April, 2016. The three-season forced-category measurement found a 2.3x increase in the amount of upskirt incidents after the policy, and a 2.9x increase in peeping tom incidents after the policy. In a Poisson regression, using trimesters to control for seasonal variations in offenses, the fold change in rate from the four year pre-policy period to the post-policy period was 3.03 for Upskirt and 3.14 for Peeping Tom.

Terftastic · 19/03/2018 12:19

I knew I got happy too soon.

James had Barbara and sweary on first - he's going to do a Ralf Little on us.

Bastard.

Why doesn't he believe that women are sexually assaulted, on an epidemic level - but will easily believe the transwoman who cries they're too scared to use the mens?
