Amy, the architect and hero of ManFriday has been invited on Good Morning Britain this morning. As far as we know the interview will be 7:40am. Please tune in.

I’ll take one for the team and watch from now, updating the thread when I see she comes on Grin as it’s the very least I can do considering she is going up against Piers Morgan and Peter Tatchell.

Good luck to her!

No. Said seriously.

The same "I AM A REAL WOMAN!" IW who blowdried her hair topless, and stands in front of a mirror to watch herself lascviously massaging body lotion into her brand new breasts. In front of other women.

Just like all real women do.

Mumsnut · 19/03/2018 10:44

I MASSIVELY ADMIRE AMY

CadyHeron · 19/03/2018 10:44

K'in ell. Grin How the fk does anyone say stuff like that with a straight face?
Absolutely bonkers.

Being in Scotland I can't access ITV and it's not showing up on STV player. Any ideas on where I can see it?

We are not afraid of trans people.

Ekphrasis · 19/03/2018 11:31

Watched it after suffering eleventy billion ads.

Thank you Amy and @SwearyG for getting this into the news and triggering debate.

(As an aside, how the f does the red woman cope with Piers?!)

BoreOfWhabylon · 19/03/2018 11:35

Signed up to ITV hub+ (it's free for the first week) and was then able to whizz through to the item without ads.

AMY YOU WERE FABULOUS calm, dignified, reasonable Flowers

Weebo · 19/03/2018 11:51

Does this work for you Fairfax?

My first time recording summit for Youtube.

KanyeWesticle · 19/03/2018 11:52

Well done Amy. You did us proud!

GayAllen · 19/03/2018 11:54

Do people like Jane Fae and bloody India Willoughby really think they look like women? They just look ridiculous.

Frequency · 19/03/2018 12:14

I didn't understand Jane's point about men going to prison if they lie about 'being a woman'?

I understood that self-id was to make transitioning easier and there's to be no checks or safeguards, you could simply self identify and request that your birth certificate be changed and to be legally recognised as your chosen gender. Where does imprisoning men who falsely claim to 'feel like a woman' come into it? How we prove their feelz are manly?

Or did she, as I suspect, mean we have to wait for those men to commit crimes against women before they are imprisoned and it has nothing to do with their feelz?

FairfaxAikman · 19/03/2018 12:20

Ta Weebo

TheChampagneGalop · 19/03/2018 12:25

Well done, Amy!

SciFiFan2015 · 19/03/2018 12:26

Thanks @Weebo another Scot watching your recording!

WipeYourFeet · 19/03/2018 12:27

Thank you WeeboSmile
Well done Amy - I admire how articulate and calm you were next to that boarish oaf Thanks

PrettyWisdomous · 19/03/2018 12:35

Amy you did brilliantly, well done.

I agree with Frequencyabout the prison nonsense.

juliascurr · 19/03/2018 12:51

thanks, weebo

HomeTerf · 19/03/2018 12:52

Thanks Weebo And thanks Amy. You were admirably calm and dignified, and put across the most significant points really clearly. A perfect ambassador.

OvaHere · 19/03/2018 12:54

Thanks for recording Weebo.

Jane Fae was determined just to fill the airtime with waffle that was only tenuously about the actual subject and seemed to be full of inaccuracies about the proposed changes to the GRA.

I wish the media would find a different TA for these slots.

ShotsFired · 19/03/2018 12:59

Jane Fae was determined to wring every last drop out of that coffee cup, eh?

OlennasWimple · 19/03/2018 13:00

Weebo - thanks for doing that

Amy - you are a Star

On the criminal thing, I think what JF was getting at is that there would probably be something on the self-ID form that says that signing it without genuinely intending to change gender is an offence. But....we don't have these policy and process details yet, because the legislation has stalled, plus it completely misses the whole feckin point that we dont' want to shut the stable door after the horse has bolted and put women in danger

boatyardblues · 19/03/2018 13:10

Thanks Weebo - the ITV ads were driving me nuts (far too many, service unuseable!).

Amy - you were excellent: calm, on point and really clear.

Jane Fae, OTOH - how Jane’s pants didn’t go up in flames reeling off all those fibs, I don’t know! Bloody bonkers.

boatyardblues · 19/03/2018 13:11

PS I hope you are OK too, Amy. I have no doubt this will have riled a lot of very unpleasant men.
