Allegedly to celebrate 100 years of the female vote.

Preview info indicates that among the prospective female celebs are two TW. Do we think that the gender debate will be one of the topics discussed in there? And could it be a disaster for the GRA bill? Interested in hearing others' views!

(Also Katie Hopkins planned for it. Cant help hoping that she gets a bullied in there Grin)

That was to Lost not you Helena

EamonnWright · 06/01/2018 14:49

I had no idea Amanda Barrie was 82!

Ereshkigal · 06/01/2018 17:11

Missed it. Libellous?

Bloody hell. Yep.

I signed my life away the minute I down loaded the channel 5 app.

NotTerfNorCis · 06/01/2018 21:28

Hahahaha! Willoughby is totally blowing it. What a fool.

theaveragewife · 06/01/2018 21:59

The best arguments, at the right time, from the right people. Perfect.

RedToothBrush · 07/01/2018 00:40

I think it probably worth reminding everyone about Ann Widcome:

^www.google.co.uk/amp/www.independent.co.uk/news/pregnant-prisoner-tells-of-her-ordeal-in-chains-1262477.html%3famp^

On a program celebriting the emancipation of women? Supposedly.

AssignedPuuurfectAtBirth · 07/01/2018 00:44

Oh certainly did not think she was a nice old lady. I remember her for her Clause 28 support in particular.

But the chains is quite something

IndominusRex · 07/01/2018 08:32

maleka has hit the nail on the head. The comments on the bb fb page are interesting reading. (Those that haven't been deleted)

Ereshkigal · 07/01/2018 14:48

Ooh that's a good idea re app, I will watch it on my commute.

PocketCoffeeEspresso · 07/01/2018 15:17

Ann Widcome holds strong opinions on things that she doesn't necessarily know much about - I caught a conversation with Rachel in the highlights where Ann told Rachel that she didn't understand why women had children only to have them looked after by someone else, after Rachel spoke about how much childcare cost so she could keep her job.

I was yelling at youtube, for Rachel to say something about how it's funny how it's totally fine for men to do it.

AnotherQuoll · 07/01/2018 15:46

The #CBBIndia tag has been interesting. Like I said on Twitter, it's funny how the transactivists haven't been piling on to "TERF!" threaten or abuse the mainstream viewers who are defending sexual orientation.

Anyway, I was intrigued: for the first time ever, the Big Brother house was going to start as an entirely Y-chromosome-free zone

I wonder if that was intentional. The mention of Chromosomes is usually avoided like the plague.

Tippexy · 07/01/2018 16:40

The MN Telly Addict CBB threads (of which there are now two) are a wonderful read on this topic - recommend them!

Ekphrasis · 07/01/2018 16:41

The end of the Bb intro music has a multicoloured pair of X chromosomes.

HelenaDove · 07/01/2018 20:43

I actually watched this last night. I like the drag queen.

AnotherQuoll · 08/01/2018 19:51

I suspect not but am curious enough to ask: Am I the only lesbian who doesn't believe it pure coincidence that, of all the people who've "misgendered" Willoughby, he chose to direct his biggest grudge, and his rant about 'penetrating' toward the only lesbian there ?

He must be dying to switch off the mics and just scream"TERF!!1!!" in her face.

QueenLaBeefah · 08/01/2018 19:55

No - I think she gave Amanda both barrels because she is not as strong as Ann and Rachel. India is a bully and they like their victims weak but I think India was surprised that Amanda could hold her own.

AnotherQuoll · 08/01/2018 20:27

I'm glad she did. Thanks, Queen, fair enough.

Paris Lees is going to be on Bit on the Side tonight... 🙄

All exposure is good exposure. She will make an arse of it.

Royalfuckup · 09/01/2018 10:17

Paris Lees came across terribly. Vain, self congratulatory, arrogant, ego-centric...

What a shame the two trans women featured on CBB so far have all the charm of a bull in a china shop.

Shane/Courtney, on the other hand, is a wonderful example of an intelligent individual who is able to offer an alternative to society’s mainstream mentality with true grace and articulation. An absolute masterclass in how to win people over.
