Without MaryZ to fly the flag this is going unnoticed on Mumsnet.

Graham Linehan was invited by RTE to take part in a panel on Trans issues. There are now petitions to have him removed.

Have now released information about Gillners wife online - disgusting behaviour.
They are terrified

Rubidium · 22/01/2019 13:18

Apparently Stella O'Malley will be appearing as well.

peanut2017 · 22/01/2019 13:27

Fantastic was just thinking this earlier that it would be amazing if she was part of the show as well - excellent news

peanut2017 · 22/01/2019 17:11

www.todayfm.com/podcasts/95290/Should-RTÉ-Drop-Graham-Linehan-From-Transgender-Debate

Includes Stella O'Malley.

merrymouse · 22/01/2019 20:28

What are they debating if they won't include somebody who disagrees with them?

PennyMordauntsLadyBrain · 22/01/2019 20:38

Can’t listen to Cooper atm- how was the show?

Am I naive in hoping it was balanced?

Rubidium · 22/01/2019 21:19

I thought it was OK. They had on Kate Shanahan, journalism prof from DIT, who discussed why it's such a heated issue and editorial decisions when making a show like Prime Time; Ellen Murray from TENI, who gave the line you would expect (pro-affirmation, critics don't know what they're talking about) plus Stella O'Malley and her own personal story of wanting to be a boy when she was a child. All quite calm and reasonable to my mind.

I see there's a demo going on outside the RTE studios:

Interestingly, few if any of the protesters appear to be obviously trans. Obligatory woke beardy blokes and a bluehair are in attendance, of course.

MadamBatty · 22/01/2019 21:26

Getting nervous about the programme now. It’s only 30 minutes. Interesting to see what they can cover

MotherForkinShirtBalls · 22/01/2019 21:34

I'm the same, Madam, I have butterflies for some reason!

Just read that Glinner's wife has been targeted today. That's fucking awful.

MadamBatty · 22/01/2019 21:38

Seems to focusing on the kids

OwThatsGottaHurt · 22/01/2019 21:39

Watching here too! Hope Glinner opens the eyes of the general public here!

MotherForkinShirtBalls · 22/01/2019 21:44

And there we go, Will seems to have autistic traits...

MadamBatty · 22/01/2019 21:46

Sam takes hormones but now is non binary so why bother try to change your look to make you look like the opposite sex? What not just be you?

OwThatsGottaHurt · 22/01/2019 21:47

Agree. Why bother if non binary?

OwThatsGottaHurt · 22/01/2019 21:49

So far - so light. Of course kids need support and care!! No one is saying otherwise. When are they going to raise the actual controversial issues?

NotTerfNorCis · 22/01/2019 21:53

A comment on Twitter is confusing me.

There’s a difference between gender dysphoria and being Transgender. Gender dysphoria is a mental illness that shouldn’t be treated by transitioning. Not every trans person will experience gender dysphoria and many non trans people can experience it too.

Thing is I've heard this before.

If people with dysphoria shouldn't transition, who should? Why have the surgery if you don't have dysphoria?

MadamBatty · 22/01/2019 21:53

Agree ow

What do you think mother

Not talking about the physical effects of puberty blockers

MadamBatty · 22/01/2019 21:55

hmmm. Ireland could become the most liberal country in the world I’d you could self identify at 16. How woke, how brave. How pat ourselves on the back

Notice they have not yet said sex just gender

PennyMordauntsLadyBrain · 22/01/2019 21:57

How is it going so far?

Our aerial is broken so can’t watch it live- don’t think my patience could hack it tbh anyway.

I stupidly looked at the Prime Time hashtag and it was so woke I almost bought some blue hair dye myself.

Voice0fReason · 22/01/2019 21:59

Will have to catch up with this tomorrow

7Days · 22/01/2019 22:01

I'm liking it so far tbh

CountessConstance · 22/01/2019 22:02

Trans women have lower levels of testosterone than women????

I'd be very interested to see any evidence of that claim.

7Days · 22/01/2019 22:02

Glinner is good
