Tuned into an item about menopause and a great text sent in by a woman about how we can’t ensure good outcomes for women if we cant define ourselves as a sex class, not gender. Caroline’s response was truly treacherous, talking about wonderful TW who were helping their menopausal friends out by sharing their oestrogen supplies. Astonishing that TW were centred in this part of the interview.

I didn't hear it but this is why, now Mordaunt is out of the running, I'm relatively indifferent as to who wins the Tory leadership and far more anxious about who gets the key cabinet positions.

Me too @Floisme .

She lost me after saying, it’s not only women, some men suffer from menopause too!
WTAF is her definition of a woman?

Caroline doesn't appear to know that the definition of menopause is when menstruation ceases. She kept saying that men take oestrogen - what does that have to do with menopause?

This is jawdropping, did the interviewer just let it pass?

Ffs so prescription sharing is now a good thing? Does this apply to all medications or just oestrogen when given to women by men?

It was stunning and brave HRT - the rules simply don't apply.

Oh FFS 🤦‍♀️. Great question though but what on earth is she doing chairing a Parliamentary enquiry on this if she doesn't believe in women?
