I looked but couldn't see this elsewhere. So Stephanie Davies-Arai, of Transgender Trend was recently on Kay's show talking about gender clinics.
Of course the usual suspects had a normal one and tantrums ensued. Debating our lives, we're in danger, hyperbolic blah blah blah.
One (I'm not naming names in case it gets wiped), had a particular moan, Kay said come on my show let's have a debate then, after which they backed right off. Because they wanted air time to themselves, no debate, what a surprise.
The main gripe seems to be that Stephanie had her say uninterrupted, why can't they?
Excuse me, they've had their uninterrupted say ALL the fecking time!! A trans cyclist recently had an entire ITV puff piece dedicated to their view and how unfair it all was. Were they saying why isn't a woman on to give an opposing view? No they bloody well weren't!
Decisions made, left right and centre, leaving women and their concerns out of the conversation, any TRAs online saying maybe we should hear from these women as well? Nope!
Now all of a sudden they're interested in an equal say at the table, when it suits them! Of course it can't be any old representative, has to be of their choosing. I did see Kay quote tweet someone by name although that person has me blocked despite never interacting, as I imagine they have for a lot of people 😉
I really don't want to see Kay buckle to their demands, but if she does, please let it be a hyperbolic rage monster who will end up making an arse of themselves on the telly!
