Lord Lucas really gets it

[NotAtMyAge]

...and isn't afraid to speak clearly and bluntly about women's issues. Now's the time to express your concerns, as he is obviously really listening and wanting to learn.

Here's hoping his actions shame others into taking women seriously.

Yes and no one is calling him a Terf.
I’m starting to think of him as a hunk, a bit like the judge in the Humberbeat case

He really does!

The replies are heartening although it's a bit depressing how we've lost so many rights that we need to explain what is bloody obvious YET AGAIN.

Weird man asking if menstrual flooding is a real term though and being told by some weird people - no, not really. Double

He looks like Jim Broadbent irl, (his pic is a bit out of date) which makes him even more endearing.

I think his 'menstrual flooding' words will have come from numbers of angry women who would have written to him (off Twitter) when he originally opened up his debate.

I didn’t mean he was a weird man. There was a weird man on his timeline asking about this. I’m just that anyone - even a clueless internet random man - would query this. I mean yes - it’s a thing and the name is fairly clear about what it is and what happens.

My periods are usually quite light; but my DD has this on her very first period. She'd just got home from school and rang me so upset and in a panic (I was at work). Really distressing for her and I am glad she had been at home.

It's a funny old world when a male hereditary Tory peer takes up cudgels on behalf of women when two female contenders for Labour leadership couldn't give a flying fart about women.
