If anyone missed it, the 7-minute section is here:

www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p061vb3g

Emily Brothers was another of those brave and stunning men who gave his wife a couple of kids then when they were little started wearing skirts and subjected the kids to 6 months of arguments before ultimately bravely and stunningly walking out on them whilst they were still schoolkids, to selfishly pursue "finding his true self".

It's such a slap in the face to women that men who do this are feted as heroes (heroines?) and given mucho respect by the media.

I read this Guardian article about Brothers and it's one great big pity party! Pity for HIM not his poor family! You can google for it.

Lucy was absolutely brilliant!

Thank you Lucy Thanks

@luluchops

Lucy, you are a fantastic.

One of the problems with this issue is not only getting our voices heard, but what we say being accepted.

It's a sad fact that women are often not listened to by men. But outraged women are even worse. They can't be having that, hysterical bints.

I don't know if you've had media training, but you're a natural at speaking. Credible, plausible, direct and unruffled.

Brilliant stuff. Thank you so much for speaking out.

Lucy, thank you for your bravery in speaking out on radio but also in your regular job as a firefighter. I sincerely hope that you do not receive any abuse or negative repercussions in your “day job”.

And the article about 'FGM', meaning fucking circumcision has got me spitting with rage. How fucking dare he compare a really minor op that the majority of men in the US have done to being violated and mutilated to the extent that you are left permanently unable to enjoy sex or sometimes even have children. Get to fuck, you asshole.

Melamin · 22/03/2018 19:15

Thanks to you too. You were brilliant. I hope it helps move things forwards.

AngstySpanksey · 22/03/2018 19:14

I thought you were fabulous, Lucy! Well done. I cheered so loud that I scared my cat Grin
