Just played a weird mashup of the Nolan report and the Benjamin guy umm oh and ahhing about what gender is over a sound track of ‘don’t know much about biology’.

It’s right at the end. I don’t know what to think!

Bloody brilliant

I'd need to listen again closely, but I think this included the amazing clip of Justin Trudeau tripping over the correct alphabet

I will be internally replaying 'don't know much biology ' during LGBTQ+ Re-education sessions!

Came on to post about Trudeau too - for goodness sake!!! It really highlights the crazy

The left leaning parties might be the most vocal advocates for gender ideology (and they can all go fuck themselves, I can't see me ever trusting them again), but all this mess has happened under the watch of the Tories.

I wasn't at the LGB Alliance conference but didn't Jane Clare Jones discuss a timeline with its origins in the early 1990s? (I don't know any more than that.)

And we can not forget the excellent debates in the House of Lords (take a bow, Baroness O'Cathain). The people there had a very clear vision of the unintended consequences that were likely and they were promised that they wouldn't happen.

Have listened to it now about 10 times literally crying. Not sure with laughter or with sadness.

All you've noticed is that the UK media has a default Tory-friendly stance, that's all.
Serend - you obviously aren't in Scotland with the wokiest McWokers. My U.K. MP agreed totally with trans women not in female sport my Cons MSP seems as nonplussed at the snp gov as I am.

That was great

Thank you, I've never heard the Skewer.

I approve.

Heartily.

I can’t usually listen to The Skewer because the disjointed style irritates me, but that was well worth making an exception for. Thank you Jon.

Excellent, thanks OP

Yeah after punching the air I teared up hearing Dave talking about Daphne.

Wow, hadn't heard of The Skewer, thanks for the share. Not just a clever name is it. The Alec Baldwin bit made my jaw drop!

So good to hear this stuff out in the open. For all the times we've wondered 'can these people hear themselves?!'... there it is. That's what it sounds like. Bravo.

Also - who was the lesbian who considered herself extra lesbian because she 'loves dick' that was quoted? Hadn't heard that before?

Anyone else want to suggest this for Pick of the Week? www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/59w5B29SrJ3yzb7sdqrhty6/contact-us

Highly doubtful they could put a clip on at 6:15 on Sunday evening but worth a go. After all, The Skewer was heavily trailed every morning this week during the Today programme…

Thank you for sharing

Brilliant. Will be recommending for Pick of the Week.

oh. my. goodness.

This was amazing. Amazing.

That was so comical, especially Ben Cohen, he is clueless, I was laughing out loud until the end when Chapell talked about Daphnie How very sad.

Brilliant. I've taken to sending positive feedback to the BBC every time I see or listen to something that indicates they're moving in the right direction on this. We need them to be in no doubt that the majority of their viewers and listeners are behind them.

@Yusanaim

This probably isn't the place but I want to say that only the Tories with their many, many faults stood against this gender stuff, all the others crumbled and pandered to it nauseatingly.

Yep. Its one hell of an eye opener to a raving old leftie like me.

Also - who was the lesbian who considered herself extra lesbian because she 'loves dick' that was quoted? Hadn't heard that before?

That was Arielle Scarcella, a lesbian who has had a YouTube channel for 11 years. She started out extremely pro-trans, and vehemently TWAW, with no problem accepting transwomen as lesbians, and there is a video entitled "Transgender Woman Shows Lesbian Her Vagina" where one of her friends takes the opportunity to reveal her minge to Arielle and is showered with praise over its perfection.

About 3 years ago she got into big trouble with the transgender activists by saying that there is nothing wrong with being a lesbian who prefers to only have sex with females. She did a video with Blair White where Blair says that as a MtF transperson only biological males stimulate a sexual response, despite an ability to admire the beauty of different body types.

They were so awful to her that her attitude began to change, she feels very strongly that lesbians have the right to be same sex attracted without having to apologise or feel shame. Her videos have become increasingly outspoken, and what you hear her saying on the recording is probably taken from one of her videos where she reads out some of the letters she gets sent.

I've just made two nominations for POTW, the Woman's Hour Kathleen Stock interview and The Skewer

Thanks squirrel, funnily enough I was only watching one of her videos last night! But didn't make the connection.

That is an extraordinary piece of broadcasting. TRA 101 in 4 minutes!
