Michael Foran has had to cancel the remaining lectures on Sex, GI and the law.....

[impossibletoday]

due to bullying and harassment of those students wanting to attend.

Anyone doubting this should look at Adrian Vermeule's The New Digest.

He works closely with the guy.

Don't side with misogynists, ladies. It ends badly for us.

On and on you go beclowning yourself

you do our work for us

‘Ladies’??!

Deary me, how terribly retrograde.

God I miss the laugh emoji.

But transparently's posts above very successfully showcase the delusional conspiracy theory / regressive Victorian tendencies of those determined to wedge men into women's spaces .

It's no good mate - Michael Foran's legal credentials are too well established to be smeared by internet randoms. But always worth a try I suppose and thanks for the entertainment

‘I’m a laydeee!’ <twirls>

God, you are SO boring and predictable. “Right wing funding blah blah blah”. Fucking USA imported crappy arguments and smearing. I am BORED of this bollocks on repeat.

Use your brain and read some books and stop whining on with the same bullshit.

Yes, we know who Michael Forman is. Yes, I have read his work. Yes, I find his legal discussions interesting and extremely clear. I expect that is why he is a lecturer at Oxford.

Then maybe read the poem again.

What poem?

Ooh and smearing by association now.
Keep thinking up those purity tests.

I prefer to listen to what people have to say and engage with their arguments rather than listen to bitchy gossip, innuendo , attempts at smearing, “it looks bad if you talk to X”
I do not CARE if it “looks bad” to the judgemental and self righteous purity police.
I am more interested in what IS bad using MY OWN JUDGEMENT.

Imagine being so intellectually fragile that you are challenged by the very idea of women being allowed to read a book written by a gay British bloke who’s an Associate Professor of Law at the University of Oxford. What an utterly ridiculous purity spiral world.

When I was a student I went to a peace camp and I attended a public lecture by a NATO general to learn about the strategic implications of Turkey’s geopolitics - and I read books all around my own subject and more. It used to be called a ‘rounded education’.

Desperate. Just achingly, embarrassingly desperate. Just give it up, mate. No one is listening, you're just muttering into the dark. On your own. Move with the times.

You mean the same Christian Nationalists that supposedly fund us? They don’t

He’s mostly “funded” by his employer - earning a wage much like the rest of us normies who have jobs. But he also has book royalties and Substack subscriptions. His employer happens to be The University of Oxford. And he was name checked for the quality of his work by the Supreme Court and the UK government took his advice on some constitutional law - so assuming you don’t think they are problematic right wing Christian fundamentalists i think you need to withdraw your baseless allegations.

You say the 2 protestors at Oxford were “very polite” in another of your posts. Im afraid that won’t protect them now the RSOH paradigm is shifting. Other UK students have been suspended from university for stating facts like biology is real and not staging any kind of disruption. So measured against those actions, if there’s to be equality for trans people then these 2 should be ejected from the uni asap just like if they were GC students! You wanted Equal rights didnt you?

I think he’s Irish, isn’t he? Not British? Might be wrong

Yes, he's Irish

Case proven - Ireland is closer to America than the UK is, so he must be funded from there. Look at a map, ladies!

Edited to add '🤣' for clarity.

Sorry, can’t do. I’m female. Reading a map is male-coded.

Genderwang!

Freddie Attenborough of the Committee for Academic Freedom has an article in the Critic, questions for the Proctors

Exactly as it should be. Listen to all the arguments and make up your own mind.

Instead, it’s now all about preventing people from discussing things because they have no real arguments that stand up to discussion.

It’s all touchy feel good meaningless virtue signalling waffle. No wonder they don’t do quite so well when a light is shone on it in the courts.

“No debate” was a shit option.

I cannot but laugh at the fervent appeal for the right to privacy in that video, coming as it does from someone who threw his/her privacy to the winds by standing up in public in order to protest against the evil of free speech, and then made a video to argue how right the protesters were to prevent someone else from speaking.

If you want to be private, don't make a noise in public, eh?

FFS. MF has more than 10,000 subscribers to his Substack page. He’s making more than £100k per month just from that.

Frankly you could do the same if you had anything original and correct to say.

I'm sorry, I know this is a serious thread, but you absolute fucking wombat

Ok, but what do you think about his analysis of the law and the content of his speech?

Feel free to drop your analysis below and we can debate it on its merits.

Casting aspersions about you having a funny feeling he might have some friends you don't approve of isn't going to sway anyone, however.

I have found wombats to be clever enough… just saying.

TRA types don’t actually listen to anything MF says or read what he writes. It’s too triggering. So don’t expect any cogent response.

No serious person can expect to throw around wild accusations to discredit somebody based on speculation about who they're friends with, rather than what they say, and expect to be listened to.

Only an absolute idiot would just swallow hearsay in that way, without actually weighing up the merits of somebody's stance.
