Debbie Hayton on world at 1 radio 4 today

[Ekphrasis]

Just heard Debbie is on today.

"The hills are alive with the sound of peaking..."

Third person was top far up they's own derriere to be a lot of use to be honest, but I get your drift...

Very sorry to read about Debbie.

Oh I am sorry to read that about Debbie, if you’re reading, I hope you’re ok and have plenty of support.

Disgraceful behaviour towards you Debbie.

I'm so sorry to read you were treated in such an abusive manner.

Yes I'm here. I recorded that yesterday morning. I'm planning to put a transcript on my blog when I get the time. I may add a transcript of the response. It was bizarre.

One interesting statistic regarding GRCs. I've been involved in three BBC features this week with three other transactivists: Bex Stinson, Helen Belcher, Paris Lees. All four of us admitted on air that we have no GRC and it really doesn't matter. Essentially none of us can be bothered to fill out the forms.

It really doesn't sound like something important enough to get worked up about does it? Jane Garvey quizzed Stinson on that point.

And I regret the sex imbalance today.

Not your responsibility.

Thank you for excellent points and an excellent essay.

You must be knackered too. Have a couple of 

(I can't see my emojis; that was gin!)

About to go on LBC

Bloody hell! Good luck!

lbc?

Don't know how much I missed at the beginning but well done. Sorry to hear more about how you've been targeted too (flowers)

Debbie or 🍷or your Friday night tipple of choice from me. You have been amazing this week. Shining a light, speaking sense, being calm and rational and dignified. So sorry you're being punished for it and hope you have lots of rl support.

Thank you, Debbie

Debbie, I hope you read this. Thank you so much for being calm, measured and intelligent in these debates.

You must be bloody knackered with all the media you’re doing, and I just want to say that it’s appreciated.

You are doing a great job for women and transwomen. Stay safe and well.

Will catch up on both of those in the morning.
Thank you for showing the country that this is not women being transphobic and that we can discuss these matters calmly and rationally, without the need for smoke bombs.

Agreed that it's not Debbie's fault that there were no females on the show - the blame for that lies entirely with the BBC.

Also annoyed but unsurprised to hear that TRAs are trying to get Debbie sacked. What did they report you for? If it was for publicly acknowledging that sex exists then that's a pretty bloody silly thing to report a science teacher for.

"Your crime?"
"Knowing what the Y chromosome does"

Thank you Debbie. I'm so sorry for the treatment which you've received. I found what you said really informative and I am very grateful.

My public campaigning line is that my livelihood is under threat but it is not under threat from gender critical women.

Worst I get from gender critical women is to be politically misgendered (or politically correctly sexed depending on your point of view). Honestly, I can't get worked up over flipping pronouns. Not when the other side is trying to get me sacked and trash my reputation.

Thank you for your contributions this week Debbie, you’ve been fantastic on every forum.

I'd also note that many here vehemently disagreed with Debbie on an earlier thread, and that disagreement has not been resolved, and yet none of us have or would try to get Debbie sacked because who does that?

Maybe we could call the sometimes odd collection of people who've come together to push back against TRA overreach the Coalition of the Non Personality Disordered.
