David Tennant seemingly hates women

Gosh. Howse that work again?

I believe this is one of multiple threads people have pointed out the flaws in this argument. Yet you keep making it.

The issue is one of legitimate and illegitimate discrimination.

It is legitimate to discuss segregating single sex provisions based on sex categories of humans. It is not legitimate to segregate publicly accessible single sex provisions based on sexual orientation or religion.

Because while harm to female people for the purpose of excluding all male people above about 8 yrs old, do include physical harm, it also includes other harms as well.

There will always be some categories in the population that will have a small increased % of harm to the same sex of human using a single sex provision that they have the right to use based on their sex. The risk is not as great overall as allowing male people of any gender identity to use female single sex provisions.

Your argument is as flawed now as it was months ago.

Tennant did not say that "feminists like Kemi shouldn't exist any more". He said that "acknowledging that everyone has the right to be who they want to be... should be common sense" - which is surely correct - and his remarks about Badenoch not existing had nothing to do with her being a feminist (and she obviously isn't). They were made in the context of her denying people's right to be who they want to be, which, goodness knows, she does in a number of contexts, not just the trans one. Essentially he wants to live in a world where people don't have those views. He is certainly not advocating for mass extermination of bigots.

As for suggesting that he is criticising Badenoch because she is a feminist, how would you square that with her view that maternity pay is taking from one group of people and giving to another and is excessive, and her wish to scrap the Public Sector Equallity Duty?

The whole trans thing is a gift to misogynists who wants to pretend they don't hate women, isn't it? Now they can criticise, abuse, threaten and demean women at will- all they have to do is say they are protecting "the dolls", aka known as men who roleplay as women.

He wasn't cleared. The judge ruled that the victim would have to take the case to court in New Zealand (where she no longer lived). So very much NOT cleared.

Mmm, I think you're putting a particular spin on what he said to suit your narrative. And I say that as a gc woman whose not a particular fan of his (although I do think he plays Crowley well).

Has he said she shouldn't exist because she's black? Haven't seen that. Has he said she shouldn't exist because she's a woman? Haven't seen that.

I'm a white woman and I shouldn't be threatened. My husband is a black man and he shouldn't be threatened. My daughter is a mixed race woman and she shouldn't be threatened. In fact no one should be threatened, although the quote of what he said doesn't sound like a threat to me. I don't see that her being black and a woman makes it any better or worse than if it was made to any of us unless she is claiming it was a hate crime in which case she should go to the police with her evidence.

I know exactly what he said, and how you're misrepresenting it. He at no point said he hated women and I have seen no comment from him on spaces for women.

We have no safe spaces anyway, and there is virtually no justice for those of us (me included) who survived male violence. I was just reading how a young man was acquitted of killing a young girl despite stabbing her - once again, men can do what they want to us, without consequence.

I am sorry for all you've been through and hope you did get justice.

Tennant stood up for his kid, and the people who attack his child. He is angry that trans children suffer so much violence and hatred. That is not hating women.

Supporting your nb trans child is not misogyny.

Yeah exactly.

I mean, there's no ambiguity here at all.

He's a misogynistic arsehole.

Oh, and on DT as Crowley, he was exactly how I imagined Crowley. Not sinister, but a swaggering feline character with a dark side. I thought he captured that perfectly.

Standard misogyny. Men's opinions become more worthy of consideration with age, because age connotes wisdom (in men).

Women's opinions become less worthy of consideration with age because age connotes irrelevance (in women).

The stark difference between the original GO and the 2nd/3rd series really showed how much Pratchett's genius was behind it. I've never read any Gaiman (other than Norse Gods, which I really enjoyed) but I love the Discworld and Pratchett had such an enormous talent for finding the brilliant ridiculousness of things.

I did like the 'angels through the ages' insert in the Amazon adaptation though, I thought that was very clever. Unless that was based on material that didn't make the book, that can't have had Terry's input.

The HP films were brilliantly done (and DT was good in that too) but it must have been hard to condense them down into a 2 hour-or-so film - too hard for the last book, which became two films. V much looking forward to the HBO series!

To me it's pretty clear what he meant by that. The "TERFS will all die put soon anyway" rhetoric is pretty standard TRA stuff. When they aren't threatening to hasten our ends anyway

I liked the book and even quite enjoyed the adaptation although I still think Aiden Turner would have made a much better Crowley than Tennant who was too old and just doesn't pull off "sinister" very well.

Read the book.
And women deserve decent human kindness and an understanding why they don't want men - and mentally ill men in frocks are still men, see the law - in their spaces. Tennant's a mysogynist twit.

He's not even a "true believer" as evidenced by his constant insistence that it's his WIFE who is behind all his rhetoric on this subject. SHE taught him all about it apparently.

He's giving her "credit" now with an eye to shifting the blame when the wheels inevitably come off. Because he knows that day is coming for him.
We see you Tennant.

"A few words in an interview"?
Try reading the thread.

Interspersed with chewing the scenery and gurning maniacally

Well exactly. No other justification should be needed.

That's the stupidest remark I've read on here for a while, and there's some pretty stiff competition.

You mean saying things like: "you're a man" or 'humans can't change sex" or even "use the gents"? Stuff like that?
Men are actually far more likely to say nasty and "dehumanising" things about trans identified men but DT has nothing to say about them for some reason. Very odd. What COULD be the reason for that?

He doesn't get it because his daughters, should they need to go to hospital will be in a private ward, no biological men in the next bed. Highly unlikely his daughters will need a refuge or women only homeless shelter. Highly unlikely his daughters will go to prison. Luvvies like Tennant just don't recognise their own privilege.

He really does just have the one note, with accents. Such a predictable screen presence.

Has he wished oblivion on any males?

David Tennant is 55

Kemi B is 46 so younger, JKR is 60, so only 5 years older than him. Maya Forstater is 52, so younger. Helen Joyce is 58 so only 3 years older. If these women are old and irrelevant his views are too, aren’t they?

Agree.
I watched 2nd & 3rd of Good Omens, they would have been far better with Terry Pratchett input, as would the 1st series, he is sorely missed.
After enjoying the Stardust film I tried to read Gaiman's book & was disappointed so I suspect TP is the reason the Good Omens book was so 'good'.

My usual sidetrack...as a teen I would have enjoyed seeing the Dragonsinger books brought to life on film but adaptions so often fall short. The Harry Potter films deviate a little from the books but are so visually stunning. Excellent casting too, which helps (including Tennant 😶), though so many of the actors in it are no longer with us.

Agreed.completely.

As an aside, every time I read that a celebrity or person with a significant media presence has expressed a hope-slash-conviction that us objecting and objectionable women will die soon, I google that individual's age.

Without fail, they're always 15-30 years older than me. Dave included. Odd.
