BBC 100 - once again

I ran my eye down the photos and yup, there was an obvious man. Only serious filters would completely blur him into being unrecognisable. Funny how inclusion means a woman was not included.

I just knew without even looking there was going to be a bloke on the list.

And what an example of the genre.

an organism known to switch its gender from male to female across its lifetime

Oh yes, now suddenly biological sex IS real after all when we want you to conflate it with "gender" and assume that humans can change sex at will.

😅😅

@ArabellaScott That bottom right picture looks disturbingly like the character in Silence of the Lambs who was making himself a “woman suit”. ………Looks like Brigitte almost managed it, shame it doesn’t fit.

(sorry about the spoiler)

@lcakethereforeIam that's for that, great article. It actually made me laugh! "Sadly for photographers, the BBC does not explain what a queer lens is, or reveal where we can buy this remarkable piece of technology."

It reminded me that 'list' also means 'to lean over to one side'.

Did the BBC know about those gross photos before including this person in the list?

Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words. Like this one, from 2022, which says a thousand words about transwomen in women's sport - well actually it just says one word, NO, a thousand times. The player on the right is 'Giulia' Valentino, for the record.

I think photos like this need to be seen as widely as possible - look at the effect the Isla-Bryson-in tights one had on public opinion.

I just knew without even looking there was going to be a bloke on the list.

'Where's willy' is completely spot on. You open the list knowing it'll be there.

Joan Smith article from Unherd about this

I wondered if the choice of name came from Bardot. No prizes for guessing why he stole her name (spoiler, it's not because of her work in animal rights).

If I was one of the women on that list (I've checked and I'm not 😕), I'd be tempted to contact the Beeb and demand that my name was removed. I wouldn't want to be a part of a cheap gesture that reduces women to a token setting to display one man. A particularly grim example of one at that.

I don't blame the women on the list for not bothering though. They've probably got better things to do than worry about the BBC's dick pandering.

Where's willy, you mean?

🤣🤣🤣👏👏👏

It's such an insult this man with a fetish is named in a list that also contains Gisele Pelicot. The BBC are despicable.

This.

just as humans are not clownfish, humans are also not palm trees

Haha that's a new one! Clownfish, sea slugs, mushrooms, strawberries and now palm trees.

Ugh, those pictures. I wish I’d seen them before I made my complaint to the BBC.
It took me all of four minutes on Google to find some exemplary women grassroots environmentalists in South America who have effected significant change with few resources and absolutely no male privilege.

Have to admit I saw Brigitte and gave up reading. I'll go back and read about the actual inspirational women later.

I pray the Daily Mail/Telegraph/Sky News pick these photos up. They all hate the BBC and this coming on the back of exposure of the BBC ignoring Greg Wallace’s disgusting behaviour, will finish off a great week of PR against the BBC.
I can’t forgive them for their pushing of trans ideology on their CBBC station and they deserve all the flack they get.

I didn't even look at it as I knew they would be defining women different to how I would.....

Crikey, do his gender bending trees obsess about their falsies, too?

Some of the LGBT+ activists are celebrated for fighting far more than a bit of dead naming. This guy has queer trees.

So he waited until he'd achieved a relatively powerful position as a normal man before imposing his fetish on unconsenting others. Something the BbC is actively participating in.

And this is why I don't pay my TV license.

Well that's a fine figure of a...... Person.

There are so many amazing women on this list. Really inspired and moved by a lot of the stories.

Those photos are just grim. Clearly NOT a woman.

BBC, why is there a man on your top 100 women list?

As others have said, do we take the fact it is only one (I haven’t checked myself so I take other’s word for it) as a positive that it wasn’t more?
