Jameela Jamil being iconic

Sorry that keeps going round in my head whenever I see the thread title.

And isn't it iconic...don't you think
A little too iconic ...and, yeah, I really do think...

Every time I see this thread title it gets funnier. I think between them OP and Jameela have redefined "iconic."

The only thing Jameela Jamil is interested in promoting is Jameela Jamil - before she jumped onto the woke bandwagon no one had the faintest bloody clue who she was. Her latest Twitter attacks on a Guardian journalist* who dared write the most faintly questioning article about Jamil's latest wheeze, "body neutrality", is really OTT. We should all just ignore her.

*(And I can't stand the Guardian)

This is the woman who slags off Kim K for wearing make up but thinks pornified Bergdof is a dazzling example of humanity.

Yeah...it's almost as if certain people are held to different standards, and can "get away" with more...

You know that cliched old saying “don’t be so open minded that your brains fall out”. That’s Jameela.

Literally just stumbled across this on Twitter, too.

Glamrou went to Eton and Cambridge but harrasses women who want the 'privilege' of pissing in pease.

Does anyone follow Jayde Adams? She’s not afraid to call her out on various things she’s said, also very funny.

She's a tedious fool.

I think the OP just decided to plop out a talking point that IMVHO has been done to death here.

It isn't, because feminism is "for all genders" so we can expect that males will step up to do some work on this any time now.
Just like the "feministying" men did at the Toronto Libray the other night :)

Back to the original post, if you think TW are actual women you've got to be a bit short of thinking.

I wonder why it's on women to dismantle all forms of oppression?

It's 'to dismantle all forms of oppression' apparently....

Oh how surprising. With no time left for the sex based rights of women and girls, no doubt.

Could it be more blatant a takeover?

They've appropriated it to form some sort of weak catch-all social justice movement. Because it was only ever going to be women who would be expected not to centre our own needs in our own liberation movement.

Yep. See this (fucking ridiculous I know but bear with me) article in the Independent this week.

The core objective of feminism to dismantle all forms of oppression is always abandoned by anti-trans campaigners.

Women being told what 'the core objective of feminism' is by a male. It's 'to dismantle all forms of oppression' apparently....

Ooh sorry, missed that!

I posted a link to that earlier in the thread. I agree!

The video Magdalen Berns did about Everyday Feminism illustrates this very well.

^These full time professional feminists like Sady Doyle and Jameela Jamil appear to have forgotten, or simply do not care, that Feminism is the political movement for the liberation of women.
Liberation from the servitude they are advocating in their "true feminism".^

Narconympho. Cool user name.

I like The Good Place but I really dislike JJ's character. Her character is clueless, privileged, predictably self-serving, whose entitlement and narcissism is unbearably grating. The other characters grow/evolve while hers is unsurprisingly stagnant and one-dimensional.

Take it as you will.

I am also a trans advocate, and I in no way see trans women as ANY threat to our fight.
“To include them is true feminism.

Transgender advocacy organizations have repeatedly stated that women's rights are anti-trans. The only way to not see this is to refuse to look.

I think you misspelt “idiotic”, OP. You can ask the moderators to amend your thread title.

OP not returned? I was looking forward to reading more doe eyed admiration for the sterling work Jameela does as a full time feminist activist.

It would appear that Jameela doesn’t understand the meaning of “full time”, “feminist” or “activist”. I suppose that’s only to be expected if “woman” is tricky.
