As in the title, JO'B will be discussing JK Rowling's comments on Maya and the Trans Activist response on his programme this morning. Sorry I missed Nick Ferrari & the Divine Sharon earlier but I will be listening to JO'B at 10.

Fucking not all of trans women have surgery you in educated twat. Bit rich talking about other people's education there.

Not really, he is not educated on these issues. That's obvious.

Apparently the caller's wife had given birth to a baby girl 3 hours previously. He said that it was him that had given birth. Then, at this unique time in their lives, he gets himself onto a radio call-in to complain about women saying that, no, people cannot change their sex.

How fucking weird is that? James O'Brien was enraptured with him.

Poor baby girl in that case. How confusing to be told that your mother is actually your father which is how Jack described herself.

He cannot 'pick a side' as to whether biology is real or not!

Wonder where James went to school Hmm

nauticant · 20/12/2019 12:00

Yes, that's what they said HarrietThePi. And then showed themselves to be a trans activist. I'd say these two things were not unconnected.

koshkat · 20/12/2019 11:59

S/he def said that. I assumed that it was a transman.

But could be wrong and it was just a very chauvanist man of the type that says 'we are pregnant'!

HarrietThePi · 20/12/2019 11:58

Did jack not say jack they (jack) had just given birth? I thought I heard that too

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 20/12/2019 11:56

So one female caller only as the lads debate what makes a woman sums it up really!

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 20/12/2019 11:55

I was also baffled by this caller claiming to have just given birth oh good it wasnt just be super confused by that

Nice one OB. FFS

koshkat · 20/12/2019 11:52

Very confusing!

Jillyhilly · 20/12/2019 11:51

Which of course is the first thing you need to think about 3 hours after your wife gives birth.

koshkat · 20/12/2019 11:51

It's ok - JOB agrees with Jack. Phew!

nauticant · 20/12/2019 11:51

I was also baffled by this caller claiming to have just given birth. That's some self-identification going on.

Datun · 20/12/2019 11:51

I notice that the answer “different genitals” was acceptable coming from a transwoman, but not from an actual woman.

He doesn't just treat transwomen like males, no misogyny, no sexism; he treats them like extra special, super important males.

The fact he can't see it makes him look like a clattering dunderhead.

And I wish someone would ask him, when he says he feels like a man, to describe that feeling. £1m says he'll either realise he's parroting sexist stereotypes, or he'll flounder.

koshkat · 20/12/2019 11:51

Oh sorry - I thought Jack said that he had just given birth! Grin

Jillyhilly · 20/12/2019 11:50

Now we have a man who’s just has a baby girl and wants to thank everyone for fighting for trans rights.

nauticant · 20/12/2019 11:50

He's gone for a "cis-man" instead.

koshkat · 20/12/2019 11:50

But Jack thinks that he is a father...

koshkat · 20/12/2019 11:50

Well it is a woman as it's Jack who has just given birth....

Jillyhilly · 20/12/2019 11:49

Good news. James “knows we got the show right”.

koshkat · 20/12/2019 11:49

He will squeeze in a woman now and shout at her for 5 mins.

LangCleg · 20/12/2019 11:49

Now I've had those bad, don't smite me, MNHQ, I'm sorrysorrysorry thoughts, I'm laughing so hard I can barely type!

(Am childish.)

koshkat · 20/12/2019 11:49

But Sarah said that they wished they had been born in a female body didn't they? Or did I imagine that bit?
