James is going to be discussing trans issues today on LBC. His show is on now - not sure what time the segment will start, but should be good!

Frustrating but understandable - this is how the threat of suicide is always responded to. It's really useful to see it in action - it illustrates why important decisions should not be made in response to extreme emotions.

So this tans person is scared to go to a male toilet but can't see why women don't want men in their women only toilet. - ffs

I agree absolutely. It's this very sentiment that trans peaked me. I got the distinct feeling that trans women only thought of themselves, which is fair enough, but to add the tagline of trans women are women means they don't give one iota of empathy to women.

'Trans women should fight for their own spaces' - to quote my 16 year old son.

SwearyG · 19/03/2018 12:10

I take it I shouldn't listen to the rest of the show then.

Ellenripleysalienbaby · 19/03/2018 12:12

I'm holding on to the fact that JOBs daughter said that about having periods and being a woman!

His own daughter is a TERF!

LanaKanesTerfyVagina · 19/03/2018 12:12

Hey Sweary!

Great job.

If you need to stay calm maybe not.....me and DP roaring at the radio in fucking frustration at the self absorbed twat on after.

TERFragetteCity · 19/03/2018 12:12

SwearyG you are fucking awesome.

LastGirlOnTheLeft · 19/03/2018 12:12

I wish I had heard this - Hannah sounds like she was brilliant!! People just thought women would roll over and take this assault on our dignity because men said so. Hah!!! They thought WRONG!

Elendon · 19/03/2018 12:13

Oh and well done Hannah.

You are a star! Star

unfortunately I don't listen to the JOB live so I'm going to have to wait for this one on social media.

OvaHere · 19/03/2018 12:13

Well done Sweary.

JOB should spend more time listening to his own daughter.

Pratchet · 19/03/2018 12:13

Here we go another terf yay

Ellenripleysalienbaby · 19/03/2018 12:13

If you don't want Katelyn to be subjected harassment in the loos, take it up with the men harassing!

AnnieAnoniMouse · 19/03/2018 12:14

Twat

GabeIsShocking · 19/03/2018 12:14

You put your point across well. This last person was someone I would have sympathy with the family and friends having to put up with that level of poor me me me me me, exhausting.

LanaKanesTerfyVagina · 19/03/2018 12:14

So you trist a bloke in a dress....but won't trust a woman with anactual fact.

womanformallyknownaswoman · 19/03/2018 12:14

Thx Sweary - brilliant brave move

Appreciate all the brilliant commentary I got from MNetters to convey what was being said to those of us who couldn't listen in live

Pratchet · 19/03/2018 12:14

Ooh don't mention the male rapist I'm cutting you off

Ellenripleysalienbaby · 19/03/2018 12:14

Martin Ponting is all over the news!

Pratchet · 19/03/2018 12:15

Transsgender now james has gone quiet

HomeTerf · 19/03/2018 12:15

Woman: Women don't feel safe with men in their spaces
JOB: I resent your insinuation that all men are violent.
Transwoman: I'll get attacked if I go into a men's toilet
JOB: Oh mate, that's terrible. Of course you must be allowed to get away from all the very violent men who are waiting to hurt you.

AnnieAnoniMouse · 19/03/2018 12:15

I don’t think my blood pressure can take much more of this.

LanaKanesTerfyVagina · 19/03/2018 12:15

Cut off for naming an actual fucking fact.

Gobsmacked at the imbalance here.

Sooooo fucking pissed off.

nauticant · 19/03/2018 12:16

Callers:

  1. A woman is undermined.
  2. A transwoman is given unconditional love.
  3. A woman is thrown off the show.
  4. Another transwoman getting an extremely sympathetic hearing.
Pratchet · 19/03/2018 12:16

All pally again. Every now and then james, like all misogynists, needs to slap a woman down to feel good about himself.

Ellenripleysalienbaby · 19/03/2018 12:16

Yes HomeTerf! It's so transparent!

hilbobaggins · 19/03/2018 12:16

Another trans woman telling her entire life story. James giving him the love treatment. Is this going to be the rest of the show?
