It’s a comedy panel show where the participants are given a topic to talk nonsense about and hiding 5 truths in the speech.

The topic that Frankie Boyle has was ‘women’.
David Mitchell introduced the topic as ‘adult human female’!

I hope Frankie Boyle walked off in protest. Or is it just women he feels he can attack for thinking words have meanings?

This made my ears prick up too!
It sounded quite pointed: " your topic Frankie is women: Adult human females."
I think he knew exactly what he was doing when he said that.

And then it made me think how utterly ridiculous it is that someone using that definition on the radio should be remotely noteworthy. Yet it is.

@cornflakegirl

They usually give the dictionary definition. Not sure I'd read too much into it.

Naaah Robert Webb is not-so-secretly terfy and has got shit on Twitter. He knows the dictionary definition of woman is a 'transphobic dog whistle'
