Grace Lavery on Woman’s Hour Today (7 April)

[CaveMum]

Why on earth I do not know, but the “delightful” Grace Lavery is on Woman’s Hour today.

This Grace Lavery

It's not HRT Grace. Your body didn't make the hormones.

@DomesticatedZombie

I'm transcribing but my fingers are freezing and I'll need to go back once it's up as a recording and fill in the bits where I was doubled over laughing I missed.

Thanks for taking one for the team

@AlisonDonut

Do womens' hour usually have people who glamourise and post photos of domestice abuse of their partner all over the internet? How times have changed.

My response exactly. As for the miscarried foetus - JFC.

Oh god, I'm laughing too much.

Students previously wanted to remark on Grace's intelligence before transition, but afterwards it was all about how caring Grace was...

EB dropping a hint that Mr and Mrs Lavery are a heterosexual couple.

will empathise.

EB very wisely keeping extremely quiet here. Savvy.

Wow, Grace can really talk.....and talk.......

@Lynnthesearesexnotgenderpeople

Wow, Grace can really talk.....and talk.......

But not say anything at all.

GL: It is possible to change sex. Sex is real.

This is the most middle class thing I have ever heard. It’s a work of staggering bourgeoisness.

YAS Emma!

Ah, "changing sex" in GL world is changing secondary sexual characteristics.

'Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt'

Wtf are secondary sexual characteristics? Boobs?

EB treading a tactful path here. No need for grilling. Grace is revealing all the madness entirely on Grace's own.

Come on Emma...

@Lynnthesearesexnotgenderpeople

Wow, Grace can really talk.....and talk.......

'There are those who will believe that you will never fully become a woman'

• and those who will believe you will never even a tiny little bit 'become' a woman if you are male. Believe it or not.

@bellinisurge

We need more of these wankers on mainstream programmes to show what a ridiculous pile of shite this is. More sunlight

Yes. This interview has really cheered me up after a crazy week. Love the use of the word 'penis' throughout.

EB now asking GL about sport and Harper's comment that transwomen maintain their advantage and so women are concerned about fairness, and leads to her asking whether there's such a thing as the female body. GL's answer is untranscribable.

Grace thinks that dropping the word 'patriarchy' every 40 seconds makes her the most womanly oppressed woman ever to be a womanly woman.

@tabbycatstripy

This is the most middle class thing I have ever heard. It’s a work of staggering bourgeoisness.

Luxury beliefs and pseudo realities imposed on us lessers by the most privileged in society - why the fuck does anyone fall for this arsewash?

Getting testy...

Patriarchy tells us (apparently) that there is a naturally occurring organic type (female).

Ha ha ha.

“Difficult to think one’s way out of structures...”

Ha ha ha.
