I love Cathy Burke

Team Dreyfuss on this one, sadly.

Kathy Burke is a massive disappointment on this topic.

Surprised she’s not been cancelled for Waynetta Slob’s views, seeing as the New Puritans cannot tolerate any non PC humour.

She's a far better actor than I think she's given credit for. Her "Mary Tudor" in the movie "Elizabeth" really knocked my socks off.

I think women who chant the twaw mantra are short-sighted and a tad dim, not able to see the consequences for themselves. Or they're cowards, unwilling to actually state the truth despite being well aware of it.

There are consequences to both pathways. The first seems easier but will have terrible, truly terrible, consequences for women in the long term.

Kathy Burke has her money and her career but it'll disappear in a flash if she doesn't toe the line.

What does she care for women on the breadline?

They can always wank a guy off in a car for the lecky money, can't they?

This wasn't very pleasant - the 'another bloke' being referred to is James
I read that as her scoffing at a man telling a woman she should be sticking up for another man in the name of women's rights.
As let's face it, that is a bit ridiculous if you think about it.
So what if she replied bluntly?
I thought women didn't have to be nice?

She used to be ashamed of her Irish heritage but now she's got an Irish passport 🖕

I don’t know why people can’t tolerate differing views. Kathy has long been a strong feminist. You don’t have to agree with everything she says but that doesn’t take away from her qualities. I think trashing other women for their views on a minority group is awful. Some people are even criticising her acting ability based on her views on trans people which is laughable. I think she is fab and I’d much rather take my lead from her than people who can’t tolerate a minority group

Completely agree, she's entitled to her own views and hate how insults and putting down abilities etc just for expressing different views to your own happens.

N/C for obvious reasons
It's not obvious why you've name changed, am.I missing something?

Good point. I was thinking of Black Lives Matter and how it became a woke cause. But you can’t call yourself anti-racist if you discriminate against any group on the basis of their race.

kathy is the one who can’t handle differing views - she’s the one who won’t defend a friend for having different views

i also don’t see how anyone can be a feminist if they think sex work is empowering and that TWAW

I used to like her until she started giving her opinions about being woke.

If "sex work" is so amazing why didn't Kathy do it, instead of acting ? You know girl power Kath?? Just not for you eh? Absolute disgrace of a woman.

She’s stood by while TRA have lined up to abuse James & watched as his career has fallen apart.

not once has she stood up for him. She doesn’t have to agree with him but she could say “I don’t agree with him but the abuse is uncalled for”.

but no she’s stood alongside the people who abuse him. Her ‘bravery’ & be kind only extends in one direction

I think she's a horrible person. One of those people who think she's a superior being because she's massively opinionated with no tact. She says what she likes, and if you don't like it it's because you're wrong and you can fuck off.
The daft twat.

She has never said anything directly about James AFAIK more that she has helped create an environment where anyone standing up for women or the rights of gay men and lesbians is branded a bigot/cunt etc etc.

James has endured a ton of abuse some of it horribly homophobic and Kathy has been silent. Maintaining her TWAW credentials might be more important to her. Who knows.

What did she actually do or say to/about James Dreyfus?

I have googled and can't find anything.

Woke people aren’t racist, for example, and that’s great, right? I’d much rather be woke than racist.

Sadly I've met a few people who would consider themselves woke and who are racist, against white people and Jews. I actually had one try and explain to me that it was only racism if it was directed at black/brown skinned people and that you can't be racist towards white people 🙄

Yep.

Yeah she treated James Dreyfus appallingly
How? What did she do?

Why,when, where ?

that's a big disappointment for me.

I think she's turned into a parody of herself.

Love Kathy Burke, she's ace.

I always thought Kathy was wonderful - but she is disappointing on this issue. I think it’s because she’s proudly, fully signed up to wokeism and there are no ifs, no buts, you follow the script.

Her X profile declares “My woke take brings all the c-words to the yard”. She’s proudly woke because she thinks being woke makes you a nice person. To an extent, it does! Woke people aren’t racist, for example, and that’s great, right? I’d much rather be woke than racist. And Kathy herself says she’d rather be woke than be an ignorant c-word. Fair enough.

Sadly, woke people also believe it’s bigotry to say a grown-ass man can’t be a woman, even if he insists he is one. That makes no sense to me. But if you’re woke, you can’t deviate from the script. Kathy is in a trap of her own making. Having said that, if she genuinely believes TWAW, and sex work is work, then she’s unlikely to care that she’s boxed herself in. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I think that quote is ironic considering she acts like a cunt towards anyone who doesn't fit her world view 😂

I didn't know she though prostitution was 'girl power' 🙄She's gone right down in my estimations after learning that, and tbh my opinion of her wasn't high before.

She is a massive disappointment. Apart from which, is there anything admirable about the quote posted? It seems to me that it only has an impact because of the oh-so-naughty "Try not to be a cunt" at the end. If she'd said "Try to be a nice person" it would have illustrated the banality of what she was saying in the rest of the quote.
