Nick Ferrari covered the JK Rowling mess this morning on his breakfast show. He has often covered trans issues as one of the few broadcasters who can see this movement for what it is.

Sharron Davies was on and was superb putting her case with clarity and in straightforward language as usual. He agreed with every word she said.
Then came the editor of Diva magazine Carrie Lyell who was embarrassingly bad and folded under any questioning from Ferrari. She claimed that transpeople are being murdered every day. And agreed that Maya should be silenced.

Sunlight is a great thing and people are listening. Thank you JK Rowling.

So:

  • Standing up for women's rights is transphobia.
  • Stating scientific fact is transphobia.
  • Starting a thread to discuss these things is trans bashing.

But apparently rights aren't pie and women don't lose any rights by being obedient nice?

Strongmummy why don't you have a listen before making judgements? This is a freedom of speech issue as much as anything else and affects all of us.
It was after either 8.30am or the 8.45 am news.

Great, Strong. We'll have to agree to disagree won't we.

CaptainKirksSpikeyGhost · 20/12/2019 09:45

Okay. Good for you.
Now we know that.
Feel better?

WatchingTheMoon · 20/12/2019 09:45

strongmummy why not start your own topic instead of derailing?

LangCleg · 20/12/2019 09:45

Why are you posting on it then?

Scuse me while I go back to the productive threads. We're not at junior school hereabouts. We have Grown Up things to discuss.

Oh I’m feminist, I just don’t agree with you lot and find this section ridiculous as a result

CaptainKirksSpikeyGhost · 20/12/2019 09:42

Funnily enough it tends to center mostly on woman's rights.

LangCleg · 20/12/2019 09:41

Is the feminism section just about trans bashing?

It's about what's good for women. You know, the cunty ones.

OhHolyJesus · 20/12/2019 09:40

Nope Strong - a lot of it is about free speech actually.

Thanks for posting OP, I love JK and Sharron and will have a listen later.
