Hooray, Nuala is reassured to be reading out emails from queer women who don't like the words "lesbian" and see themselves LGBTQI+ people.

So glad she's managed to centre the right sort of women who at all times revolve around and centre men, and don't want anything nasty like identities or spaces or language of their own.

Gosh where would it all end?

I gave up on Dick Pandering Hour years ago.

Refreshing. JB certainly did not disappoint.

Does she really think we can't see her bias?

I am going to listen later. I normally avoid WH because of presenters like Nuala who are just infuriating😡

Good job Julie! Loved that she went back to compulsory heterosexuality . Pity it was Nuala doing the “ interviewing” ..she always has to say well we haven’t got any gay men, trans people “sex workers” to argue their case. We have had plenty of them over the last few years and this was a refreshing change.

Tbf I'm surprised WH had JB on.

It seems she might have been invited on so Nuala could minimise and misrepresent her views. Nothing to see here - don't bother buying this flimsy, anecdote-based book.

WinterTrees · 14/04/2025 10:48

Nuala ending by questioning JB's assertion that prostitution is exploitation not 'sex work' and implying that's some weird extremist position, distasteful to the right-thinking listeners of WOMAN'S Hour.

CriticalCondition · 14/04/2025 10:48

Yup. Nuala minimised every comment by JB on gender identity as anecdotal or controversial or offensive. Hmm

Also Nuala wasn't pleased with Julie characterising "sex work" as abusive.

FlowchartRequired · 14/04/2025 10:45

Well done Julie!

nauticant · 14/04/2025 10:43

Well, Julie did go there, and Nuala didn't sound very happy.

Lolapusht · 14/04/2025 10:30

WHAT?! Travelling today so will pop back in 7 hours to check back 😀

CriticalCondition · 14/04/2025 10:26

From the trailer it sounds like she will be talking about the disappearance of the L in the rest of the alphabet soup. I hope we hear some straight talking about these new fangled 'lesbians' with penises. Nuala McGovern is a 'be kind' type...

I just heard this mentioned, should be interesting
