Ignore the resident defender of racism - Marg doesn't even know if trans women are female or male, but just comes on here to make noises.

Wow, Ella Whelan is on as well, she's excellent.

She certainly is.

@Violetparis thanks for the link.

Sorry Datun, was typing when you posted. You said it better, as ever!

It's amazing though isn't it

I predict India will use this as an opportunity to further India's own agenda, the 'I'm not like other TRAs' line.

Exactly.

It all depends on which TRA is speaking, as to exactly how severe the gatekeeping they maintain shouldn't happen, should be.

India will maintain it's all down to the way they look, and the surgery they've had. Others claim it has to be because of a GRC and surgery is irrelevant. Still more say it's because they have been saying they are a woman for donkeys years, longevity innit.

It really is extraordinary how people expect women to agree that the definition of a woman is a man who's had surgery, or a man with a piece of paper, or a man who's been saying he's a woman for boringly long time.

I often think of Jan Morris and how they were always held up as a shining example of benign transwomanhood, who turned out to be a narcissistic control freak who abused their family.

There are meant to be hordes of transwomen who are perfectly delightful. We hear about them all the time. It's a shame none of those ever step up.

BBC will probably still avoid any difficult questions. I won’t be watching as I can’t bear India

I just hope it steers people to India's Twitter account, and all their other 'interviews', and especially that Big Brother scene.

India is one of the transpeople JK Rowling has been bullying on Twitter I see.

India is a Twitter troll.
(I mean she can’t seriously believe half of the stuff she posts. Can she?)

U.S. / Canadian, Indian fans have already asked her where they can watch and how they can support and contribute.

If 10.30 is too late, it’s on the RED BUTTON at 8pm.

The QT Twitter account usually posts the question, during the 8pm broadcast, so you can get in early on that if you want.

Lol at this. Jkr doesn't bully anyone. India on the other hand, does.

WallaceinAnderland · 02/02/2023 12:24

India is one of the transpeople saying that males are more 'woman' than females.

I really hope IW explains more about this on TV haha

You don't half write a load of old rubbish. Rowling has never bullied anyone, you are actually defaming her. Disagreeing and pointing out logical and scientific fallacies isn't bullying.

ArcaneWireless · 02/02/2023 12:36

JKR bullying IW?

I doubt that very much. In fact I’d stake everything I own on it.

As a person who has been bullied I resent the term being flung about the minute the truth starts to nip at someone’s sensibilities.

Beowulfa · 02/02/2023 12:37

In my workplace, describing someone as a bully is a serious allegation that needs to be backed up by evidence.

Datun · 02/02/2023 12:39

That poster likes to plop provocative comments and then watch while everyone runs around irritatedly refuting them.

Imaginary bullying like imaginary cervixes?

India "more than a woman" Willoughby was the kind of person to leave the tag on the suit jacket sleeve...

Oh my goodness. I feel a tiny bit sorry for India. She doesn’t sound coherent on any tv I’ve seen, goodness knows how they’ll come across on WT. Shock

RufustheFloralmissingreindeer · 02/02/2023 13:14

Definitions change all the time

so I’d really need to see a definition of bullying (as well as evidence)

to be honest if that poster told me my eyes were blue id have to check

PSNonsense · 02/02/2023 13:15

What's with all the deleted posts on this thread?

If you believe in free speech I can't complain about IW being on. However it just shows how crap they are at making bookings. They could have had any one of countless Scottish feminists, or Jo Cherry or a hundred other people who would advocate for women. Ella will be ok, but she's fairly right winged so again it'll be framed as a left/right issue. having said that IW is to the right of Attila the Hun. It's just so frustrating seeing such a superficial line up. I dont think I can bear to watch it, I'll have to follow it on here and twitter. JFC even GBNews parted company with IW!

NancyDrawed · 02/02/2023 13:25

@MargaritaPie

I'm not on Twitter, so have to rely on other people's screenshots and links to know what has gone on.

I'd be really grateful if you could either post screenshots or a link to the thread/s you're referring to.
