The wonderful singer Alison Moyet has dipped a toe in controversial waters regarding all the different sexualities and identities being bandied around.

This was her tweet earlier today:

New speak really can be a right old dose of bollocks. Graysexual? Demisexual? Jesus. Some people badly need to get a paper round or a sudoku habit.

Good for her to reject this craziness. Lots of people on Twitter/X are agreeing with her, but others are not very happy. Hope she stands her ground!

Yes, she's been in and out because of the online intimidation and overload.

At this stage, I'm grateful for the notable women like AM who expose themselves to this, even on an episodic basis.

She’s been vocal for a while. I think she went off twitter as she got fed up of the idiots. Glad she’s back.

I love her response to a long term, but now sad fan "out of politeness, I've re-read what I wrote...but you know what, I still feel the same" lol.

love this

But Alison isn't under 30, she's a God damned Karen, WTF does she know?!

MadEyeJudy · 15/10/2023 19:36

I think she pops in and out...absolute legend who hasn't disappointed me thank goodness

Oh I am so pleased she has re-entered the fray. She talked about this many years ago and then decided to bow out gracefully. A brilliant woman and singer!

Alison has been speaking up for ages.

I wasn’t aware - I thought there were very few well-known voices speaking up against this Stonewall nonsense.
