Women's Hour Tomorrow!

[MsBeaujangles]

The consultation is going to be discussed tomorrow on Women's Hour. They are asking for our views!

Why are people becoming non binary?

Because of sexism. Because of stereotypes.

They won't have time for sports

"How people speak to them." That little nugget speaks volumes about societal expectations of gender.

I don't know anything about her child though.

"I'm Irish and a feminist and I write about these issues... But I don't know about all the instances where it has been abused and the ways that it differs from what the UK proposes"

Rabbi says "We're all queer really."

Oh dear god.

Non answer, this person has not thought this through.

So many non answers on this.

What does non-binary have to do with it?

“We’re all pretty queer in many ways?”

JG: “Tell me about it.”

So ... why can’t we all just be individuals without making laws and safeguarding worse?

She brought up gay marriage ... so much false equivalence.

Did Jane Garvey just say this is a very real threat to women’s safety?

Good work debbie brava

Not a single word about safeguarding girls

So far, the number of guests pro v against has been completely biased.

No mention of parents who are concerned about their trans children - and the medicalisation and surgery that this so often leads to.

The rabbi would have us all
believe it's amazing.

Thank you Debbie - its all about safeguarding

Safeguarding, safeguarding safeguarding.

From a teacher who happens to be trans, and is very capable of explaining why women are concerned. Well done Debbie :) I'm so glad they got you on too to balance things out and so it's not just the awesome Nic on her own.,

Debbie is a gift here. Actually sounds like a sensible "piece of paper is irrelevant if the people around me are questioning my motives".

Bollocks

'JG not buying non binary'

Quite right. I think she's doing a pretty good job here

Rabbi: 'we're all a bit queer really'. Oh FFS, women, listen to yourself!!!

Lawyer says Women only spaces will be protected post GRA... yeah, like they already are in the prisons....

Is Natalie a bit simple to think the EA and GRA aren't going to impact each other?

I bet JG is going to have a large gin in a dark room

Speak to Debbie again about repealing the GRA!

I've never heard Debbie speak before. V impressed

Thank you Nic for talking about children and medicalisation at the end.

My husband’s a discrimination lawyer and he’s shouting at the radio - why do they have a family lawyer spouting misinformation about the equality act?

Yes Nic! But being shut down by JG
