Sorry no time to read the whole thread so I may be repeating what has already been said.
re the interviewing style. It seems to me the women who have been gracisously allowed by the BBC to be the face of Newsnight have somehow swallowed the notion that the only way to interview is to be agrressive and interrupt. As someone who always though Paxman was an arrogant fart, I am concerned that women feel they have to ape this stupid male antagonism. I suspect they have also been told its good for click bait as no doubt someone will cut and trim to make, in this instance Glinner, look out of their depth.
The problem with this style of interview means you never get to hear the full arguement or reasoning of the person being interviewed.
I think the emphasis by the interviewer on it being about the "choice" of young women a deliberate decision to make it look like a man was telling (young) women what was right or wrong.
I cant imagine being able to get out any sort of sensible sentences in these circumstances, and thought it good that at least newsnight were acknowledging that it isn't just some terfy women who are concerned about what is going on.
Hopeful the combination of the interview and Glinner being so high profile will mean some people might investigate further what the issues are.
re should he have been invited? Well there had been a newspaper article and newsnight often follows up on that, but strange that the interviewer didn't want to talk about why Glinner speaking up for women has lost him work, and who is behind that.
Hopefully if newsnight is so concerned about a man talking about this they will invite some women to come and be interviewed by newsnight.
But suspect it is far more likely they will get someone from Stonewall and they will focus on the Nazi comparison, and they will come over as harrassed martyrs.
Its only like this, staged skirmishes, because the BBC is doing its job of reporting news.
