(Yes, it's a DM link. No, I will not apologise for it.)

Piers Morgan has 'reported' Jameela Jamil's to the police on Twitter for 'mis-gendering' him amid their furious row about gender fluidity.

The row between the duo, which has been going on for over 24 hours, started earlier in the week with a disagreement about Sam Smith saying he doesn't identify as either a man or a woman.

Piers, 53, took to Twitter on Friday morning to after Jameela, 33, 'mis-gendered' him: '"This thing". Wow. On every level that is a shameful mis-gendering. Cc @metpoliceuk'.

I find this a difficult one. I am gender critical, but I do love Jameela!

Piers isn’t an ally. He’s a person some women agree with on some issues.

Well put. This arse-licking "ally" bullshit can fuck off.

Spot on

It pisses me off that i feel i have to caveat everything on the boards

I was on a thread the other day disagreeing with A and someone started ranting that we were all hypocrites for not denouncing B

Everyone would have denounced B if we had been discussing B!!

What I found most remarkable about this twitter spat, is that it’s perfectly ok with a lot of people for her to dehumanise him, repeatedly. What is this double standards crap? Why is it ok to bully, dehumanise and insult certain people but not others? She’s a massive hypocrite.

Well said!

I feel that "Piers Morgan said/did/etc" could be a daily newspaper article.

Indeed. It's annoying having every word jumped on isn't it?

I have absolutely no clue what is arse licking about what I said? I hadn't even thought of ally in the woke sense.

I was making a play on 'with friends like these..' to make the point that I didn't think the childish stunt of his being 'misgendered' helped make the case. I think that having PM bang on about this issue is a mixed blessing- he gets attention, but he's such a dick that many will not think about the underlying issue.

I missed the calling him a 'thing' on first read. I think this is a very telling point. They all do this- you'd imagine 'activists' who want everyone else to 'be kind' could manage to have a civil debate.

But yeah...either way its fucking irritating Grin

The pronoun she used in reference to him was “it.”

My ears are already hurting, imagining the decibel level of the outcry, and deservedly so, were any feminist to use the pronoun “it” during any debate over gender and language.

To call someone “it” is beyond offensive. Misgendering isn’t even at issue: her pronoun usage stripped PM of basic human-ness.

She owes him an apology.

BigFatGiant · 23/03/2019 17:37

She’s just not that bright is she? He was doing well, it could have made for some excellent banter is she didn’t take herself so seriously.

Agreed.
