Meet the new CEO of Endometriosis South Coast

I don't know why I'm surprised really

pickledandpuzzled · 23/11/2023 15:03

I just read Cake’s post and thought ‘ah, bless!’

Then remembered how damaging the jumped up bemedalled tinpot dictators are, and dialled back. I wouldn’t give real power to a toddler in a dress up beefeater uniform either.

I read that in the same way my mother used to play this little piggy went to market and this little piggy had roast beef with my toes!

So shiny, he can see his face in it! If he tilts it.....just.....so.

Does remind me a little of the leader of a tinpot junta with his uniform all over gold braid and self awarded medals.

Interesting, thank you.

I still maintain that if Steph is a suitable CEO then it should be clarified that transmen are the focus of the charity.

The job title feels excessive for one of several volunteers. Who suggested the title to go with the assistance, I wonder.

IcakethereforeIam · 23/11/2023 11:00

A little late to the party, but perhaps all the better for it

Not entirely unsupportive of Steph and Jodie. The writer is trying to see the baby through the bathwater. I'd not heard of the 'bikini approach' before but it's an excellent phrase to use in a critique of gender ideology and all the harms that flow from it, especially in women's medicine.

The Telegraph have had another stab at it. On the Yahoo site so no paywall

Although it, inadvertently, demonstrates the importance of clear language as the author has become confused between men and transmen.

The latest trans outrage might just be the most absurd one yet

The BBC’s Radio Four has been widely criticised – including last week by seasoned former Newsnight journalist Michael Crick – for its full-frontal turn to wokery. Against such a backdrop Woman’s Hour presenter Emma Barnett has taken a bold stand. Condu...

I've just been on BBC Sounds and notice they've hidden the contents of that Woman's Hour episode. All the other episodes list the full contents in headlines on the main Woman's Hour web page, but for this episode, it's just 'Justice Secretary Alex Chalk on sentencing reforms'. Funny that.

Oh dear, Emma is probably in a spot of bother. Anyone who hasn’t written maybe should consider doing so.

Correction, it’s on 8 till 9.

Skyellaskerry · 19/11/2023 19:41

In case anyone’s interested, this appointment is being discussed on LBC Rachel Johnson, 9 to 10pm I think.

That isn't as hard to grasp, and he provides lots of confirmatory evidence everywhere he goes! But I do find it hard to work out how there is absolutely no comeback for him. No standards of behaviour or neutrality to be adhered to and no process to follow each time he breaks them. That he is not held accountable for his responsibility to all his constituents, women included, is odd given he is a tax payer funded mp.

The treatment of women in the LP who know that sex is binary and that children should be safeguarded from those insisting they could be born on the wrong body, demonstrates how easy it is for these misogynists run to rampant throughout the party with no consequences.

Don’t … I’m getting flashbacks.

Ben Bradshaw hates and bullies women.

It's not hard to understand.

I always wonder if these 'just brain wash them' types would agree that a few hours on FWR would 're educate' them into believing in women's rights and equality.

They'd probably end up wanting to punch their screens,like good old Steph.

Yeah,then it's just re-education.

It's well worth sending in a short supportive comment if you are able to do so. I'm sure there will be plenty of complaints going in ...

You've only got to look at the comments below Mail or Times articles (and arguably Times readers are a bit less knee-jerky-the-world's-gorn-mad) to see how few people agree with the gender ideology view.

Spot on. I looked last night at the comments under the Times article about Lynn Pinches - the pool player who refused to play the women's final against a transwoman competitor. 1.4k comments! with the vast majority praising her for taking a stand! Just as with Steph, people can see the unfairness, the bullying, silencing and self centred narcissism of what's happening.

I was thinking that I would send in a ‘well done to Emma’ report to the BBC in anticipation of her being absolutely slated by the TRAs / allies. They really cannot stand being told ‘no’.

Good plan.

Journalist pointing out they were talking bollocks and had alternative facts is 'bullying'.

It's so sad really isn't it?

They have nothing else.

The Mail is really running with this. Like them or not they understand their readership. If they think this, and the recent story about the brave female pool player, will interest their readers, they are probably right. Suggesting that much of the country has reached peak trans.
