‘The Patriarchy’ on R4

[Gruach]

This is on right now. First two quotes were from Stella Creasy and Jordan Peterson ...

I'm sat in my car listening. They have some soundbites from Jordan Peterson later...

But wait ... did Evan Davis really just express uncertainty about biological differences?

Will have to replay that bit later.

Thanks R0wantrees.

Well, it was too short. And seemed to be mostly a platform for Evan Davis to air his own views. I’m not entirely sure what the point was.

I think the clips and interviews were good. Listeners may come to different conclusions to Evan Davies.

There has been a great deal on R4 in the last couple of months.

Woman's Hour have a special series in the autumn about 'sex and gender' and are encouraging people to get in touch with their views.

Did you catch the first part Gruach with the comments about why women shouldn't be allowed in male members-only clubs?

I will listen tomorrow.

This is what WH are asking for:

*"In the autumn women's hour are going to be looking in greater detail at sex and gender."

They'd like to know thoughts on:

• "why more born females decide to identify as male"

• "is your safety at risk because you were born a woman or because you identify as one"

• if you are a lesbian, trans woman, non binary or have any experience in this area please email the website; they will be combined in a series of features and articles in the autumn.*

I think there's quite a few things been confused and mixed up there.

Quotes are from what was said on the prog.
