BBC debates women's safety - without any women

[TheXXFactor]

This is getting the pasting it deserves on Twitter- fucking outrageous link

I see twitter's going well for him

Well the majority of the responses are pretty strong.

How can the BBC be so shortsighted. It's hardly being 'independent'.

I have cancelled my TV license. Pathetic I know but possibly the only recourse I have to object to what is going on.

Wow there's a lot of anger swilling around judging by the responses to his tweet.

Is there no one at the BBC saying "hang on, women represent 51% of the country. We are listening to a representative of the other 49% and a representative of a tiny subset of that 49%. That's not right..."

Wow there's a lot of anger swilling around judging by the responses to his tweet.

Twitter is on fire, indeed!

TBH, it being Paris L. of all people probably helped. Paris comes across as supremely self-absorbed. I'd feel immediately annoyed by anyone acting this way - trans or not.

I've done it. The first thing ive actually done to help the cause. Im too scared to put my name to anything though so i hope its actually anonymous.

Has anyone got a twitter link? Id be interested to see.

There's a link in the OP

Sorry i missed that

Complaint sent.

Complained. I told them they are sleepwalking into another Savile scandal. That should hopefully hit a nerve! I am crazy angry about this, I cannot believe what I have witnessed here. I feel more marginalised as a woman currently than I have ever felt in my life, and that is saying something. Offended is not the word.

I have peaked AGAIN! BBC, I see you, you misogynistic patronising sexist cockwombles.

OP, I think you should share this to AIBU too, I think more Women NEED to see this and have a right of reply/complaint. I dont care how right on anyone is here on mumsnet, and what side if the femce you fall, surely the irony and hypocrisy cannot be missed here.

Of the fence... sorry, angry fat fingers...

For anyone braver than I (recently peaked and not quite there yet) nick has a facebook page...

I made a comment and it got marked as spam! Very proud moment even if it was wasted! I was polite too. Talk about being silenced...

Are there any journos here brave or willing enough to expose this ridiculous bullshit from the bbc?

oh, the irony. The link to the podcast in the tweet didn't work, so went via the website. This is the description:

'The journalist and transgender rights activist talks about growing up trans and why the way media debates trans issues makes her angry.'

why the way media debates trans issues makes her angry

Me too. Me fucking too.

The lunatics have taken over the asylum.

Witch what was your comment?

I posted a link to this thread and said plenty of opinions over here

The links to the podcast don't work. Is it just me? Or has it been removed?

@exfunfeminist, you can find it via the website. Away from laptop or would post link

Still up, I’m listening now.
