As in the title, JO'B will be discussing JK Rowling's comments on Maya and the Trans Activist response on his programme this morning. Sorry I missed Nick Ferrari & the Divine Sharon earlier but I will be listening to JO'B at 10.

So one female caller only as the lads debate what makes a woman.

Nice one OB. FFS

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 20/12/2019 11:55

I was also baffled by this caller claiming to have just given birth oh good it wasnt just be super confused by that

snowblight · 20/12/2019 11:56

Fucking not all of trans women have surgery you in educated twat.

Bit rich talking about other people's education there.

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 20/12/2019 11:56

So one female caller only as the lads debate what makes a woman sums it up really!

HarrietThePi · 20/12/2019 11:58

Did jack not say jack they (jack) had just given birth? I thought I heard that too

koshkat · 20/12/2019 11:59

S/he def said that. I assumed that it was a transman.

But could be wrong and it was just a very chauvanist man of the type that says 'we are pregnant'!

nauticant · 20/12/2019 12:00

Yes, that's what they said HarrietThePi. And then showed themselves to be a trans activist. I'd say these two things were not unconnected.

thenightsky · 20/12/2019 12:00

He cannot 'pick a side' as to whether biology is real or not!

Wonder where James went to school Hmm

koshkat · 20/12/2019 12:01

Poor baby girl in that case. How confusing to be told that your mother is actually your father which is how Jack described herself.

nauticant · 20/12/2019 12:04

Apparently the caller's wife had given birth to a baby girl 3 hours previously. He said that it was him that had given birth. Then, at this unique time in their lives, he gets himself onto a radio call-in to complain about women saying that, no, people cannot change their sex.

How fucking weird is that? James O'Brien was enraptured with him.

Not really, he is not educated on these issues. That's obvious.

Floisme · 20/12/2019 12:07

What? He's phoning into a radio show when his wife gave birth 3 hours ago?
Why isn't he cleaning the house for when they come home?
Or out buying more maternity sanitary pads?

Jillyhilly · 20/12/2019 12:08

Yes, that caller seemed to be saying that he was so thankful that his baby girl would one day have the opportunity to choose to be a transman.

snowblight · 20/12/2019 12:09

Pleased you found your dictionary.

Pleased you're pleased..Hmm

koshkat · 20/12/2019 12:14

Any need?

koshkat · 20/12/2019 12:15

Sorry - to snowblight

SkunkButtRug · 20/12/2019 12:21

Ah, there's always one...Grin

EvenSupposing · 20/12/2019 12:26

Generally, on MN, everyone thinks the grammar police are dicks.

HTH

HarrietThePi · 20/12/2019 12:28

I'm so confused by the man who gave birth 10 minutes ago call. Whatever way I think it through it doesn't make sense to me.

Even if it's the father of the child using a dodgy choice of words to describe his wife/girlfriend/partner having just given birth to their child, I don't understand how his mind is working. Surely when you have just become a parent your first thought isn't "thanks to the LGBT community that one day my child may become gay/trans" it's more like "wow I'm a parent now, look at my baby"

Angryresister · 20/12/2019 12:30

Hilarious thread. I really thought I was present!

koshkat · 20/12/2019 12:47

I am still thinking that 'Jack' was a transman who had literally just given birth. Testosterone can alter female voices a lot.

koshkat · 20/12/2019 12:49

JOB is now covering FGM.

You could not make this shit up could you?!

koshkat · 20/12/2019 12:50

Unfuckingbelievable. Hmm

FanofJK · 20/12/2019 12:50

Thanks for taking one for the team everyone. He really sounds deluded. It's so annoying having all these clueless men sat around discussing what a woman is!
