Belatedly - we've not had an FWR women of the year thread this year.

There are so many worthy of mention! I'm not planning on doing a spreadsheet to decide a 'winner' but if anyone else wants to please do.

So, to get the ball rolling with some obvious names...

Joanne Rowling - I think someone reckoned she's due a lifetime award but I'm pretty sure she's going to be doing more for women each year so that's premature.Grin

Maya Forstater and Allison Bailey for their important legal battles.

Special MNer's award to @IamSarah for her bravery and persistence.

I think it would be great if all these women were made Dames. That would send a message! Has JKR been offered a knighthood? Has she refused?

So many strong and inspirational women to choose from. I want to say Maya and Allison, but then JKR had so much to lose when she picked her side. Joanna Cherry is awesome, KJKM is brilliant at getting public focus and Elaine is magnificent.

I nominate all of them lol - and as a poster upthread said, all of those people quietly terfing, stickering, talking and raising awareness.

I think Ash Regan, God bless her. Honorable second place to GussieGrips and her minge.

I am furious with Sturgeon and Chapman, among others.

Boiledbeetle · 25/12/2022 17:31

All of you bloody amazing lot.

DameMaud · 25/12/2022 17:28

I second Ash Regan

Everyone that has attended a speakers corner/similar event, or has just terfed about generally.
You are all heroines to me!

Ash Regan, for standing up to her party, and standing up for women & girls.

SiobhanSharpe · 25/12/2022 17:21

I love all those suggestions but for me Elaine Miller does it all with humour and style. Not to mention articulacy.
