You are a legend! Just wanted to say Happy New Year to you if you're on here.

(Apologies if there's already a thread? Had a look but couldn't see one. Will delete this one if I've missed it.)

Thank you @UlrikeinYork you did an amazing job!

This, if I got the link right, is where IW tweets with death wishes to Debbie Hayton.
It is on an Ulrike tweet thread.

I have just noticed IW has also ‘misgendered’ DH ( unless DH has said previously that she doesn’t mind)

That was in answer to @ Shmithecat2

Why is it always "transwomen are women" and not so much "transmen are men"?

Indeed, they misgendered her too. That's literal violence - when it suits, anyway 🙄

Is Max just trying to be deliberately provocative to get hits and attention?

BaronessWrongCrowdRex · 01/01/2022 21:33

If he is, Mask, then he isn’t doing himself any favours.

Redshoeblueshoe · 01/01/2022 21:40

Thank you Elrike Flowers

Nicely done Ulrike. You were the voice of many of us when we speak to people in real life and they often end up saying, absolutely, we agree but we are too scared to say so.
As an aside, Max is shockingly inept - I had never heard of him, and having listened to his interviews with Ulrike, Debbie and Kelly-Jay I am surprised at how inadequate he seems to be as a journalist. I don't think he actually believes what he is saying, wouldn't it be nice if he came out and said so?

@Maskless

Yes, but it is actually beneficial when we get to see women such as Ulrike of York fighting back so eloquently. She made mince meat of him. A grown man telling the wired it’s very ‘complicated’ to know what a woman is. Such an idiot.

At what point will we have this conversation about the word 'man'?

Bouledeneige · 02/01/2022 13:50

Brilliant Ulrike. I too was surprised no backlash on Twitter. Then I realised the students aren't up yet !

I don't think he has had any journalistic training, he was hired after his appearance on the first Apprentice, where one of the interviewers for the final 3 remarked (paraphrased) that he could have applied for any Reality TV show as he just seemed to be motivated by fame...

"he could have applied for any Reality TV show as he just seemed to be motivated by fame..."

We can safely say he's had that over the last few days :D

When I found out he was on the Apprentice I did think it was rather apt given the calibre of contestants on that show.

Ah thanks for that. Reality tv person? In that case I think Rylan should have Max's job, he'd do it better.

YouWereGr8InLittleMenstruators · 02/01/2022 19:05

Du var jättebra!

TheFormerChild · 07/01/2022 10:59

Is IW aware that .25 equals one quarter?

AryaStarkWolf · 07/01/2022 12:24

@UlrikeinYork

Thank you all so much for your feedback, it means the world to me! Amazingly I’ve had next to no abuse even on twitter (well India Willoughby’s not happy) - I really think we’re turning a corner!
You were brilliant, thank you so much
