James Dreyfus gets it

Sorry this may be old news to those of you who have been fighting this battle for a long time.

The actor James Dreyfus has tweeted a picture of himself in one of the Standing for Women t-shirts. After a day of abuse on Twitter (against which he has very ably defended himself), he posted this:

"Where do these militant kids get off attacking people who are a part of the LGBT community and have supported them before these nut jobs were even born? They’ve got a bloody nerve."

He gets it :)

They're disappointed in him. He's let the side down. They hoped for better.

The naked, visceral hate that women get for this kind of public disobedience is of quite a different order.

And just look at the different response he gets - few mild batterings, but nothing like what women experience. Misogyny is proven yet again.

BettyDuMonde · 21/09/2018 19:36

Can we keep him on after the revolution, please?

placemats · 21/09/2018 19:35

James. I don't do twitter. I watched Gimme Gimme Gimme last night, just six episodes. I need to go to bed soon - after Celeb Master Chief.

Just love you. xx

Favourite line so far:

It's more confusing than Hansel and Gretel.

Hooray! Always hoped he was a good un :)

This response made me PMSL. Nowhere to go. You are the weakest link, goodbye 👋

DoctorTwo · 21/09/2018 19:24

I want one of those Standing For Women T-shirts. Can I get one from the FPFW website?

SlowlyShrinking · 21/09/2018 18:19

Nice one James, thanks for standing with women Smile

Oooh I love James Dreyfus and now I love him even more.

Sarahconnor1 · 21/09/2018 18:16

I'll just leave this here. It's like James can read my mind.

I love the t shirt - DH and I could have matching ones!

CrackpotsArePots · 21/09/2018 18:11

Thank you James

I see Horrid Harrop is his normal sanctimonious, condescending self

I've never heard the good doctor speak but in my imagination he sounds just like Alan Bennett. But not as butchm

Sarahconnor1 · 21/09/2018 18:03

Tedious harrop went after James (about 3 weeks after James wore the t-shirt)

James has been on fire the last 24 hours or so.

What an utterly magnificent example of a man. I am quite happy to see clever, funny men who have our back publicly.

Come on JK. As pleased as I am to see a handful of men not being arseholes, I would be ecstatic if you got off the fence.

Melamin · 21/09/2018 17:51

Yes, I admire his robust defence. Grin

Ereshkigal · 21/09/2018 17:43

Wow, he wore a t shirt? That's brilliant. Go James!
