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.

Mel just said that he is a bio woman! He was then asked what he is transitioning to and from. This would NOT have happened a few months ago.

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 20/12/2019 10:34

We need a woman to call in - JOB will shut her down and question her every two seconds. He treats men and women callers so differently just need a transwoman brexiter to phone up and then he'd go in on them

koshkat · 20/12/2019 10:34

Feeling vaguely encouraged I have to say. Just let a sensible woman speak and let the sunlight flood in.

Lol. His head would explode at such a thing, surely?

Am in Australia, but this Mel sounds excellent for peaking listeners if Mel is claiming Mel is a biological woman, if Mel sounds like a holder of the smaller gamete.

FrankUnderwoodsWife · 20/12/2019 10:36

I genuinely feel for people who feel they are born in the wrong body. But that doesn’t automatically make them the biological sex they want to be in.
These individuals cannot share my experience as a “cis-woman”, they have their own unique experience and I respect and acknowledge that, but they will never become a woman in the sense they desire and no amount of telling us we are wrong will change that

JOb's 47?

I thought he was much older! Goodness.

koshkat · 20/12/2019 10:38

Penises should not be in women's prisons - well, duh.

Jillyhilly · 20/12/2019 10:38

Mel had no fucking clue what Mel was claiming.

koshkat · 20/12/2019 10:39

Another fucking man. FFS.

koshkat · 20/12/2019 10:39

This one sounds like a woke bro to me. Beard ahoy.

Jillyhilly · 20/12/2019 10:40

Another “cis man”.

Jillyhilly · 20/12/2019 10:40

Yup. You can smell the soy from here.

vivariumvivariumsvivaria · 20/12/2019 10:40

He said "genuine transwomen" there.

That's a hate incident, isn't it? If someone says they are trans they are trans. Umbrella is as umbrella does.

Jillyhilly · 20/12/2019 10:40

I’m so enjoying this thread.

FrankUnderwoodsWife · 20/12/2019 10:41

@jillyhilly me too. JOB hates it when people disagree with him....

koshkat · 20/12/2019 10:41

Oh dear me.

koshkat · 20/12/2019 10:42

Ollie is full of crap. Grin

EvenSupposing · 20/12/2019 10:42

'So far we have asked males'

FrankUnderwoodsWife · 20/12/2019 10:42

“Womanhood” jeez

EvenSupposing · 20/12/2019 10:43

'I'm a male and I have asked two other males. And no females. They were all in the kitchen.'

koshkat · 20/12/2019 10:43

JOB not doing a bad job to be fair to him. I wish he would reject the cis/trans bullshit though.

koshkat · 20/12/2019 10:44

And of course let some female callers on...

BiarritzCrackers · 20/12/2019 10:44

Why isn't 'cis' offensive, if 'biological' is - there is no logic, as both are 'othering'. If we all fully and willingly embraced 'cis', I bet it would be co-opted and taken away from us too.

Jillyhilly · 20/12/2019 10:44

Ollie is full of crap.

But he’s taken the time out of his busy man-schedule to generously call in and lecture us all about what women are, surely that counts for something?
