Honestly, this is getting beyond ridiculous now.

Luxury views and in the same media circle as Damien Barr.

Enough said!

She just wants to be LIKED so much. It’s painful to watch.

The ultimate disappointing funfem cool girl, I have never really understood her appeal.

Even with the grovelling her card will be marked, which is never a good position to be in.

"Love to see people owning their mistakes. Sorry your comments are dirt now tho"

How utterly sinister and unpleasant. Judge, jury and executioner indeed.

And it's such a tightly closed circle those media luvvies inhabit. Caitlin must have had to really dial down the whole periods/uterus/boobs/belly/oestrogen schtick that has been the mainstay of her columns and books because any tiny betrayal of the TWAW creed would be akin to shitting on the table at a Soho House soiree. She would be ostracised forevermore.

McDuffy · 11/03/2021 16:33

If I had a hysterectomy I wouldn't be less scared of men.
Craven is right. Surprised they haven't called her out for differentiating between non-womb having women and TW.

@LaVitaPuoEsserePiuBella

She has no moral fibre.

I threw her book into the recycling a few years ago - it didn't even merit the charity shop.

Superb...I know exactly the type of book this would be... ''I'm not going to sully another reader with this nonsense''
ChonkyChook · 11/03/2021 16:43

Bet she's got that fear feeling right now, wondering if they'll come for her.

Maybe she should keep her mouth shut if having periods means her lady brain acts up.

vesuvia · 11/03/2021 16:44

Quotation from Moran - "... a bit more of a commitment to being a woman than just accidentally being born one."

I don't like her use of the word "accidentally".

Also, being or not being a woman is just biology, not a competition with brownie points for effort.

SenecaTrewe · 11/03/2021 16:46

"Accidentally being born one".

What, like those millions of baby girls who fall victim to infanticide? Did they think "whoops - if only I hadn't accidentally been born a girl"?

Fucking idiocy.

ZombieEthel · 11/03/2021 16:50

She's an utter coward. I don't buy her books or read her articles anymore. Suggest others do the same.

AbsintheFriends · 11/03/2021 16:58

She's like Jess Phillips in that she gets it, she obviously does, but she's too scared of her cool mates turning on her to own what she believes. It's appalling cowardice.

Exactly. It was that crap in that book that made me realise Moran is just desperately trying to balance everything she says so the TRAs don't come for her next. She has no backbone and fuck all integrity in the debate because she's only playing it for her own ends.
Vargas · 11/03/2021 17:06

I just can't believe that she really, in her heart of hearts, believes that TWAW. I assume she is just protecting her career.

PurpleWh1teGreen · 11/03/2021 17:21

So the author of How to be a Woman and How to Build a Girl thinks
woman - womb = transwoman.

Someone needs a new formula. And I don't just mean the equasion.

Helmetbymidnight · 11/03/2021 17:26

Jesus.

McDuffy · 11/03/2021 17:28

She was the reason I subscribed to The Times when it went behind the paywall. Janice Turner is why I still pay!

CardinalLolzy · 11/03/2021 17:31

If she really thought that TWAW then they too would just be "women without wombs", no seperate mention needed.

Exactly grabthar, this is the sort of thing i was referring to in another thread. It's a sham belief. I have more respect for the people that have reorganised their views of the world and the humans in it to at least try and assimilate this belief (probably not being clear, but the discussion is on another thread! )

"Anyone who’s been rejected by The Man is a friend of mine!"
The assumption that anyone who is a member of any "disadvantaged" class or an underdog in any way is a good egg is so facile. Would she consider the racist Yaniv a friend?

Babdoc · 11/03/2021 17:36

Couldn’t her far superior colleague Janice Turner take her aside and, you know, explain feminism 1.1 to the gormless fool?

McDuffy · 11/03/2021 17:37

Good point Cardinal
Like when chief handmaiden Jameela Jamil said she "took all of them" Hmm

DaVinyl · 11/03/2021 17:38

@nauticant

Also, Moranthology appears to have been mis-spelt.

McDuffy · 11/03/2021 17:42

Haha just got that 🤦‍♀️ took me a while!

HermioneWeasley · 11/03/2021 17:42

God, she’s pathetic - craven and cowardly. She knows exactly what a woman is, but is so desperate to be cool and liked she throws all women, especially the most vulnerable, under the bus.

What’s the opposite of integrity? That’s her.

Janaih · 11/03/2021 17:46

I do not identify with this Bullshit.

TheTamingOfTheresa · 11/03/2021 18:12
