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.

"the whole debate is about difference"

no it's not.

It's about dead women, threatened women nd females rights to single sex spaces

He's totally clueless. Reminds me a bit of the triggernometry lads - they think they get it, but, they really fucking don't.

"Do you see how difficult this is?"

Nah, mate.

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 20/12/2019 11:14

Its not difficult James, men have made it difficult and complicated for their own benefit

SkunkButtRug · 20/12/2019 11:15

"A woman that was born a man" ...WTAF?

BovaryX · 20/12/2019 11:15

I think this thread should be printed as an illustrated booklet.....Grin

Did someone actually ask him whether he thought his daughters would grow up to be men. Using men's toilets, being in men's spaces?

Qcng · 20/12/2019 11:16

84850 - is this a number to leave a review? Or your opinion?
Does he read them out?

HarrietThePi · 20/12/2019 11:19

That's the number to send text messages to the show. Some are read out but not all. I think he reads them though

Jillyhilly · 20/12/2019 11:19

“We’re all looking for a skeleton key to unlock every aspect of this debate” according to James.

Jillyhilly · 20/12/2019 11:19

Keep looking matey.

Notwiththeseknees · 20/12/2019 11:19

I don't want my women's services reduced so that a MTF can have an invitation to a 'smear test' so his feelings aren't hurt......

SkunkButtRug · 20/12/2019 11:20

He keeps saying "I don't know". I think we should just assume he's clueless by his own admission.

Jillyhilly · 20/12/2019 11:22

Also “we are all anomalies” apparently. He is so wise maybe he should write a book Hmm

Notwiththeseknees · 20/12/2019 11:22

just messaged to ask why JOB doesn't ask the next MTF how they knew they were a woman trapped in a woman body?

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 20/12/2019 11:24

I've messaged to say "he can play semantics over the word biological all we wants but women's rights arent for debating"

Jillyhilly · 20/12/2019 11:25

Oh here we go. Another transwoman. Now James can have another little flirt.

ArnoldWhatshisknickers · 20/12/2019 11:25

A masterclass in how to pretend something simple is complicated.

It's not difficult at all James.

There are two sexes. That's all. The large, immobile gamete producers and the small, mobile gamete producers.

You, and every other small, mobile gamete producer are not, never have been and never can be women.

You and every other small, mobile gamete producer belong in the men's facilities.

Stop trying to kick a subsection of your fellow small, mobile gamete producers out just because they make you uncomfortable.

HarrietThePi · 20/12/2019 11:26

Hahah Jolly.

I'm really glad to have you all here to listen through this show with. It's like a support group.

HarrietThePi · 20/12/2019 11:26

Jilly*

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 20/12/2019 11:27

HOLD ON!!!! apparently you can be biologically male but you cant be biologically female???? Whys he not shouting down this trans-girl (as she called herself)

Jillyhilly · 20/12/2019 11:27

It’s a brilliant thread, making me laugh through the car crash.

I like this trans woman.

vivariumvivariumsvivaria · 20/12/2019 11:28

Interesting, a transwoman says they were born male
"biologically male?"
"yes, I will always be male. My dysphoria causes distress, I transition and live the life as accurately I can"
"this is about feelings rather than biology"
(warbles on about wrapping paper)

TW JUST SAID THER ARE DIFF TYPES OF TW!

HarrietThePi · 20/12/2019 11:29

I read Ben Elton's Identity Crisis recently and can't stop thinking about it

HarrietThePi · 20/12/2019 11:29

In relation to this show I mean* posted too soon Blush

Jillyhilly · 20/12/2019 11:29

Talking so much sense (not James oB, obviously).

vivariumvivariumsvivaria · 20/12/2019 11:32

"It's a very toxic community"
"not about LGBT, it's more of a political group now"

"Yes, well, sweeping statement...but, yes, this is just not binary"

"transactivists make me look bad. I've never ever experienced trans phobia because I respect everyone around me, I live my life, I respect the way society is, and people treat me as normal"

"you've been lucky"

"what's the difference between you and someone born a woman"

"genitalia, no menopausal system, grieved the childhood I didn't get, I'll never give birth"

"You will never be a complete woman"

"Thank you for the compliment"
