I mean think we’re equal, great, don’t objectify usnor take advantage of us. Just thoroughly like us as a sex.

For me, I get good vibes from Jason Momoa, George Clooney, Andrew Lincoln and the guy who plays Black Panther.

Oh yes love terry crews!

Nah not Nicky Campbell. He’s like James O’Brien - gives out the right image but ultimately wants to dominate. Trips up frequently. And has totally swallows the trans kool aid hence publicly supporting Helen Webberley. For a bright man that takes quite a degree of wilful blindness.

Not Hugh Jackman. He was on radio 2 just after 'Blurred Lines' came out and he was talking about how much he and Michael Fassbender appreciated the accompanying music video while they were filming one of the Xmen movies. I was both shocked and repulsed as I thought he was such a decent bloke before that Sad

RickOShay · 22/12/2018 23:33

Ade Edmonson? He seems like one of the good ones.

AloneInMyHead · 22/12/2018 23:36

Also Chris Martin from Coldplay.

Hereitisnow · 22/12/2018 23:36

Surely Hugh Laurie is decent?

rookiemere · 22/12/2018 23:37

Pierce Brosnan

EnidButton · 22/12/2018 23:37

Oh no, did he Villanelle? (I don't fancy googling anything to do with JS at this time of night)

PsychedelicSheep · 22/12/2018 23:37

Hugh Jackman is so obviously an arrogant prick. Not a fan.

Ahh Keanu, what a beautiful man inside and out ❤️
Also Joseph Gordon Levitt and Ryan Gosling are self proclaimed feminists.

Good to hear Andy Samberg and Terry Crews mentioned, DD loves Brooklyn 99.

Big fan of Count Buckules too!

EnidButton · 22/12/2018 23:38

Noooo Matt! Say it isn't so. Sad

MattBerrysHair · 22/12/2018 23:40

Enid it is I'm afraid. I couldn't get my head round it, he'd always seemed so nice!

RickOShay · 22/12/2018 23:42

Think I’ve got another one Michael Palin. It’s not easy though is it?

Bloomini · 22/12/2018 23:46

Can't believe vile misogynistic frankie Boyle is on here "oh but it's okay as he's simply outrageous to everyone!"

He's said awful things about women, athletes and children. He's not one of the good guys.

AloneInMyHead · 22/12/2018 23:47

Hugh Jackman is so obviously an arrogant prick.

Shock why ?

Bloomini · 22/12/2018 23:47

And glinner is the biggest celebrity of them all. Definitely top of the list.

Pleased to see Frankie Boyle mentioned. His humour is hugely acerbic and v clearly not always feminist, but he always has some brilliant feminist comedians as panellists and Katherine Ryan in particular did an amazing feminist rant on his show about how much men hate us - he should be commended for giving her that platform. His own brand of commentary is never going to be politically correct.

Speaking of politically incorrect comedians...I don’t think anyone has mentioned Ricky Gervais, but his latest stand up show echoes many of the prevalent views on this board about transsexuals.

After 90s teenage me has been hugely disappointed by what shit husbands Brad Pitt and Johnny Depp turned out to be, I’m pleased to still have Keanu as my shining beacon of feminist hope...now...what do we know about Jared Leto? Starring with the fabulous Clare Danes must give him feminist 90s brownie points, no?

MeetOnTheSIedge · 22/12/2018 23:50

Righteeckoner so agree about Nicky Campbell. The Helen Webberley episode a few weeks ago put an end to two decades of listening to the 5Live Breakfast Show for me.

AnchorDownDeepBreath · 22/12/2018 23:53

The George Clooney comments on here are a bit bizarre - it doesn't seem to be a well known "secret" that he likes to strangle himself during sex; but even if he did, I don't think that would rule him out of this list?

Disappointed on the Hugh Jackman front. He seems very genuine (and not gay; I thought those rumours had died out quite a while ago!)

David Attenborough was a good call.

YourVagesty · 22/12/2018 23:54

Simon Cowell's exes all seem to love him. But i'm not convinced that they aren't all beards. So jury's out on him.

Fairyangela · 22/12/2018 23:55

Harry Styles. He’s a real supporter of young women. Sounds mad I know but my daughter brought him to my attention and now I think he’s ace.

housewifeoflittleitaly · 22/12/2018 23:59

The fabulous David Attenborough, a beautiful soul.

Hereitisnow · 22/12/2018 23:59

The Beastie Boys all turned out to be feminists, after their sexist start. One of them is married to Bikini Kill riot grrl Hannah someone or other.

Bloomini · 23/12/2018 00:01

Why should offensive frankie Boyle be "commended" for giving women a platform to speak...? It's not all up to him.

Why excuse his "brand" of comedy as "never going to be politically correct". So that's okay then, is It? Good ol frankie letting us have our say when it suits him eh?! HmmConfused

MattBerrysHair · 23/12/2018 00:02

I found the Hugh Jackman interview. It's Dermot o Leary in 2014.
