I haven’t listened yet, and can’t find a thread about it from today 🧐

Anyway, looking forward to hearing Sex Matters later this week.

Do we know who else will be in apart from RMW and SM?

A woman would know at up to which age it is acceptable to have boys in women's toilets. Woman's Hour both guest and presenter didn't seem to know!

Yes there was a thread but it was deleted.

I guess RMW got their massive frilly knickers in a twist over it. 🤭🤭

There was a many page thread that was deleted not long ago. I only got to page two and then zaaap! so don't know what was discussed really.

Sorry, triple or quadruple posted

Yes it was deleted. Do we know who of Sex Matters will be on the programme? I feel I need to prepare myself if the BBC will actually be letting Helen Joyce on the airwaves.

I think it might have been deleted?

It was. I was just reading it and it vanished before my eyes.
No idea why.

It's been deleted.

There was another thread discussing RMW on it this morning. It's been taken down, presumably because RMW didn't like it.

As a result I'll post the response I was in the middle of making here:

RMW made some good points about body dysmorphia and I have every sympathy with anyone with a debilitating mental illness but the way RMW came across in their deep, obviously male voice justifying 3rd spaces for women who don't want to share with TW was both ludicrous and a really obvious own goal.

The whole interview made it quite obvious it was all about validation at the expense of women's and children's dignity and safety.

And don't even get me started on the whole boys going into toilets with their mums thing. What on earth was RMW thinking. They couldn't have sounded less in touch with women if they'd tried !???

RMW has both the male voice and the entitled attitude to match.

There was a thread, but it got deleted. I don't quite understand why.
