Women's Hour features interviews with Professor Alex Sharpe and Professor Rosa Freedman as part of 'Sex & Gender' series **Thread title edited at OP's request**

[kesstrel]

The topic is "The law on sex and gender".

Alex Sharpe and Rosa Freeman....I wonder if Alex will be pre-recorded....

Thanks for the heads up - will tune in. I hope Rosa drills down on the conflation of sex & gender & the need to for clear unambiguous terms in law.

Thanks for the tip

Thanks for the heads up. I'll be lisyening

Oh wow! That's going to be a must listen!

Fantastic. Thanks for letting us know.

that's my morning sorted!

This Alex Sharpe?

Is this the episode Woman's Hour were encouraging lesbians to write in for with our views or have I already missed that one? As it's the law relating to sex and gender I'm wondering if Alex will be putting forward their views on whether lesbians should be allowed to choose not to have sex with people with penises on the basis of their sex (rather than their gender identity).

I'll be f**king furious if the BBC are putting that forward as a valid viewpoint (ie that women should not have the right to our own sexual boundaries and that lesbians should have sex with people with penises) - although I hope it would wake up a lot of listeners to what is going on.

I don't think they have done the lesbian one yet

Awesome, there will be a boob enforced nap at 9:55.

(Baby of course)

I do hope it's Jane Garvey again.

What a bloody shame they didn't do this series a couple of months ago . But good that's it's getting some focus now.

Thanks for the heads up OP!

Bet it will be Jane Garvey, Jenni Murray has already outed herself as gender critical so not a neutral interviewer.

Jane Garvey is the regular presenter on Monday and Tuesday, which is why they covered the gender issue on those days last week, but took a break from it on Jenni Murray's days. Trans twitter would boil over with frothing outrage if JM was allowed to host the discussion.

Which one of you is Jenni....!

Trans twitter would boil over with frothing outrage if JM was allowed to host the discussion.

There should be a meme for that

Thanks kesstrel
Tuning in to be entertained very shortly.
Hope it's a good one. I like Rosa a lot, especially after her Sally Hines analysis

Alex Sharpe thinks the EA exceptions should be repealed.

Is this Alex Sharpe of the 'no, you should have no right to honesty from the person you're about to have sex with, and if you get a nasty surprise, you should have no right to report it' fame?

If so please can we air that one to the general public and let them make an informed choice about enabling it?

Bet it will be Jane Garvey, Jenni Murray has already outed herself as gender critical so not a neutral interviewer.

Jenni Murray was one of the first women to be ripped apart by the TRAs on Twitter. I don't blame her for not wanting to be chewed up & spat out again.

Well I'm sitting comfortably . . .

Thanks for the heads up! Listening now. They should ask Joan what she thinks.

Joan will not care how people present, but a man in the Ladies - no way
