Great to see Magdalen's legacy getting more coverage.

I remember hearing her speak many years back on youtube vids. It was like being blasted with the coldest blast of cold, fresh air I'd felt in ages. It was terrifying honesty. Simple straightforward truth.

RIP MB. Still in awe.

it is the most gender critical of all the newspapers

The Mail is not gender critical, as a look at the sidebar full of pieces shaming women for wearing clothes and having breasts will quickly confirm.

I remember her on stage at an event in 2016. She had the whole hall up on their feet shouting THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A LESBIAN WITH A PENIS!!!!!

I guess this is that event (or maybe she did that at every appearance!)

That was it!

She peaked me. Sadly, it was after she died.

Aiden Comerford will be as well. He never stops banging on about that one tweet where she lost her temper and called TRAs "blackface actors."

This made me a little teary, in a good way. Magdalen was an absolute force and her videos are brilliant.

Amazing woman. She was spot at on about this before many were even aware of the issues. I still go back and watch her videos every now and then as a reminder.

It may not be all we want it to be, but at least they published when the rest turned their backs and put their fingers in their ears. For this I'll always be grateful to the DM.

What a thoroughly lovely article.
