He is tweeting the date of international men’s day to every person who wittily tweets asking when international men’s day is. Soooo funny. And last year he raised over £50k! Tomorrow is international women’s day so worth starting to search Richard K Herring out on Twitter. Over £7k raised so far....

I think it really highlights the point that most complaining men don't actually give a shit about having an international mens day. They just don't want us to have an international womens day. Kind of like the twonks that moan about the MOBO origins awards - 'why can't we have Music of white origin awards' - well off you go, you wassoch, no one's stopping you ...

Up to nearly £70k now!

I met him last year and he confirmed he turns down lots of invitations connected to this in order not to be a dick.

This is wonderful. I will go fund him.

RiddleyW · 08/03/2019 16:00

Thanks for the reminder just donated.

Wetdogloveshubert · 08/03/2019 16:18

Having had a (senior) male colleague ask why we need to have International Women's Day, and women's-only networking organisations today, hoorah for this funding.

MrsTommyBanks · 08/03/2019 16:25

I love him. And as an post menopausal woman would bounce him off all my bedroom walls.
I know he wouldn't so have donated instead.

@stevie69 Thank you. From a survivor Flowers

@MrsTommyBanks

You are so welcome. From someone who isn't going to say she's walked in your shoes, or understands how you feel, but absolutely knows that this isn't acceptable.

Flowers for you

Just checking in after work. My, he’s had a busy one hasn’t he.

I do like the fact he’s still mixing it up a bit in his responses Grin
