Germaine Greer Fan Club

Is anyone else annoyed with Germaine Greers banishment to the naughty corner? She's a living icon and she's just not appreciated properly. It's a real shame the way she is no-platformed and vilified - just because she says women don't have penis'.

I wanted to share some Germaine Greer links that I love. I'm a massive fan and I'm pretty sure a lot of you guys are as well. If you could share your own links, messages, thoughts that would be awesome.

I felt so sorry for her last night. Those fucking patronising pricks were bullying her into silence and as for that person going on and on about the fact that GG couldn’t remember a comment she was supposed to have made. The woman is fucking 80 you ignorant git, and still makes a massive impact. You’ll all be forgotten about in a couple of years, when the novelty of this fashionable contagion wears off.

I LOVE Caitlin Moran with a fag on during that first clip.

They tried to make out she was some dotty old bat those sound bites that she was supposed to have said was probably a part of a wider conversation .

implying she had dementia because she couldn't remember something that never happened

Gaslighting you mean? An abuser's tactic?

Yes asking her about a non-existent TV appearance and then implying she had dementia because she couldn't remember something that never happened. Angry

She's too much straight talking for modern day outrage culture.

I thought she was well and truly stitched up on that programme last night they set out to confuse her it seemed that she had been briefed on the topics and that bloody presenter and channel4 tripped her up.
