Posie on Talk Radio this evening

KJK was on Talk radio yesterday (starts at 53.40 on this clip) and the host (Kevin O'Sullivan)was really pushing her on pronouns for Laurel Hubbard, which KJ was not budging on. (I was already cross with the him for repeatedly saying Transwomen and cis women leading in to the segment!)

KJK has put on Facebook that she is back on this evening - it would appear that Kevin O'Sullivan has found someone from the trans side to have a live debate with KJK (don't know who, though, or if they are an ally or a TRA or a regular TW). Also, there is not a time given on the Standing for Women page, and annoyingly, I will be out this evening, so won't be able to to listen live.

I'd not seen it mentioned here yet, but thought it might make for an interesting listen.

Oh, she is so good. So clear, so calm, and at this stage in the long, long game, so bloody well practiced. Tatchell talking entry-level soundbite shite.

Melroses · 04/08/2021 20:21

I'm not sure what Tatchell is supposed to bring to the 'debate'. He is a gay man with second hand opinions on this issue.

He's done all the man 'live and let live' stuff with absolutely no regard as to how women live, apart from the 'woman he knows' that works in the refuge and we can all have a friend like that 🤷‍♀️.

heathspeedwell · 04/08/2021 20:22

He's very experienced at interviews so he knows how to come across as reasonable, but he's disingenuously pretending that men as a class are not more dangerous than women as a class.

PronounssheRa · 04/08/2021 20:22

Tatchell acknowledged that some trans women have harmed women, but still thinks women's spaces should be opened up to all trans women except those who have convictions and are unrreformed.

He cares little for women's safety, dignity or privacy.

Ah Women's Liberation expert ......

Biology is not destiny falacy ....

Amazes me that any programme invites Tatchell on to talk, given his track record of dubious comments on paedophilia.

KimThomas · 04/08/2021 20:26

@endofthelinefinally

Why the constant comparison with black women? It is so insulting and rude to black women. It is embarrassing.
I wrote about that here:

It's not as if they're spoilt for choice when it comes to fine upstanding proponents of men in women's spaces who are prepared to debate. Especially with a woman.

heathspeedwell · 04/08/2021 20:30

Tatchell literally said: "most transwomen are not physiologically much different to other women"
"their testosterone levels are not that different to other women"
He's definitely not debating in good faith.

Signalbox · 04/08/2021 20:33

It's just bonkers. I can't believe this debate is real. It's madness.

BernardBlackMissesLangCleg · 04/08/2021 20:34

most transwomen are not physiologically much different to other women

jfc

of course he fucking knows that all transwomen are massively physically different to women. if he needed someone to gestate a baby he sure as shit wouldn't be asking a transwoman

twerp

It would be very helpful to have a transcript of the discussion so that a fact check could be done (especially of Peter Tatchell's claims).

PronounssheRa · 04/08/2021 20:35

No he wasn't, he also doesn't seem to have a clue about some of the issues raised.

heathspeedwell · 04/08/2021 20:35

Well hats off to KJK who did brilliantly under the circumstances, but Tatchell was given much more time to talk and he wasn't challenged at all for his disingenuous nonsense.

If anyone can do this, R0wantrees, it is you!
Melroses · 04/08/2021 20:36

There was a lot of easily disproved rubbish in his claims and he did go on rather a lot at the end.

GNCQ · 04/08/2021 20:38

Starts with Tatchell.
Ends with Tatchell.

That's about all you need from the transcript.

PronounssheRa · 04/08/2021 20:38

Tatchell was force teaming. Women and trans women all face the same issues, they should work together to tackle misogyny etc etc.

lifeissweet · 04/08/2021 20:38

KJ was doing a lot of blinking. I think to stop her eyes rolling.

FartyBrainedHippo · 04/08/2021 20:40

That flew by - I think it could have gone on for hours and barely scratched the surface. Much as I loathe and detest PT, it was refreshing to actually hear a conversation, after an eternity of 'no debate'. I hope this continues, as I'm sure he's peaked a few more with his obvious lies tonight.

R0wantrees · 04/08/2021 20:42

Many of the false claims made are those frequently recycled and whilst a lot of us here are familiar with the rebuttals, it can be useful for those newly arrived.

In the past, transcripts have proven illuminating.

GrandmaMazur · 04/08/2021 20:44

I would be curious to know how Tatchell proposes to stop the ‘unreformed’ predatory transwomen from entering women’s spaces.

I entirely agree. Everything he says just sounds so reasonable to the initiated who want to be kind.

It's all untrue, though.

I get so pissed off with his 'i can't see what the fuss is' take. Of course he can't. He has no skin in this game - and we all know far too well that the transsexuals in the LGB community of old are nothing like the new breed of TRA who are emboldened to issue women with death threats and ladydick. It's almost like he stopped thinking in the 1970s and hasn't bothered his arse to open his eyes since.

somethinginoffensive · 04/08/2021 20:46

He definitely contradicted himself in one bit.
