I don't know who the guest with the ginger hair is, but
When poo-pooing the new feminist fairytale book, she's just said the book is written by

"Sour faced feminists with bad clothes, probably on their periods."

Who is she?

Funny how evergreen misogynistic tropes are.

Would it be acceptable to come on a mainstream tv programme and refer to, say, a group campaigning for BAME rights and refer to them as for example, aggressive black people taking a break from street robberies?
Of course it wouldn’t. So if it’s not ok to dismiss black peoples concerns with reference to tired old stereotypes why can it be done to women?

On their periods? There was a very obvious retort to that, I hope no one was crass enough to ask her.
