@SethAbramson It’s heartening to see Elon and so many other men worried about the rape of girls by immigrant gangs. It’s a pity they are not equally concerned about the 1 in five girls who are sexually assaulted overwhelmingly by a relative or known adult, many of whom happen to be white.

[Kasey Edwards @KaseyEdwards]

Remembering John Marsden blaming mothers for male violence.

"Men who feel rage as a result of the failure of their mothers … are highly likely to project that rage onto future intimate partners, and often all women." The Art Of Growing Up.

Once more, witches, we bring you our listener report from Kyle and Jackie O’s radio show.

We know people hate reading these as much as we hate recording them but if you care at all about getting this foul commentary off air, we’re asking you to read these 3 tweets, and re-tweet them or reply if you’re able.

If only so you’ll understand just what companies like @ALDIAustralia, @igaAustralia, @DeniUteMuster, @MercedesBenz, @Kogan, @RMIT, @Telstra, @Coles, @HarrisScarfe and @Beforepay are openly and brazenly funding to the tune of tens of thousands of dollars each.

Do their staff, suppliers and customers know they do this? Please, if you can, read our pinned tweet to learn how to let them know what you think.

Kyle and Jackie O Show, KiiSFM, 5/8/24, approx. 7am - 10am. All quotes Kyle unless stated. Wording in brackets are our own MFW additional explanations where needed. Not all quotes are exact but are close.

6.52am Segment
“When he [Lachie: KiiSFM employee] was entering the Only Fans woman”
“He was pounding some hottie on the Gold Coast”
“Aren’t you glad Lachie buried one away because the guy’s odd, he’s gonna have limited options [Kyle, meaning Lachie isn’t good looking so will having trouble dating women, this said in front of Lachie]”
‘Have you got any back-up filth?” (Kyle to Lachie, “filth” refers to a woman)
“Are you rooting her too, Alfie?” (Kyle is obsessed with an Only Fans woman Lachie hooked up with once, none of these men appear to care this woman’s sexual activities have now been splashed nation-wide, probably without her consent)
“He doesn’t want Alfie to be where he’s been” (Kyle about Lachie not wanting Alfie, another KiiSFM employee, to have sex with the same woman)
“He doesn’t want Alfie to get her, he wants to think only he can get her” (Jackie)
“If you can get a little bit of young strain, good on you”
“She looks alright” (Jackie) “But only with a filter and everything” (Kyle)
“Her partner liked to smell sex on her undies the next day” (caller Andrew)
“I don’t like the stench, but my wife doesn’t have an odour down there (Kyle)
“I can only smell the guy’s semen (Jackie)
“It’s a vag smell, a shit smell” (Kyle about after-sex smell)
“I like to wipe her down with a warm washer after” (Kyle about his wife after sex)
“When you’re ovulating you should wipe your fanny with a finger and use it as perfume on your neck, it drives the guy crazy” (Jackie)
“You wipe your vagina juice on your neck?” (Kyle)
“We don’t know much about that stuff” (Kyle with his ‘the guys’ schtick about women’s menstrual cycles)
“Jesus designed them [vaginal secretions] to put on your neck?” (Kyle)
“Would this work in the gay world … like, pre-cum?” (Kyle, meaning should gay guys wipe secretions from their penis on their necks to help find a partner)

7.12am Segment
“No bloke is gonna buy that bullshit” (Kyle talking about astrology and fair enough, here at MFW most of us think astrology is bullshit too but his relentless focus is on ALL women as frivolous brainless fools and ALL men as far more intelligent)
“Did you bang that bloke?” (Kyle to Jackie)
“Brooklyn [producer Brooklyn Johns] … you’re no fan of the black man?” (Kyle) … “Not at all, I love black people” (Brooklyn)
“Have you seen her with no makeup on?” (Kyle about Beyoncé, ironic eye roll here by our listener as big as Jupiter)
“People thought I was tapping that” (Kyle about Beyoncé)
“Those toxic men movies, they’re not rapey, they’re just men being men”
“Now it’s just some gay guy having sex with the dirt, some gay guy licking sperm out of a bath”

“Tony our boss” (Jackie) “He’s NOT my boss!” (Kyle)
You must be some root” (Kyle to Jackie, disparagingly)
“After the break we have a woman coming in to teach men how to cheat better without getting caught” (Kyle about next guest Bonnie Blue, a sex worker who advises men on having affairs)
“You’re both female and female boxing isn’t currently cool, so do we need to check everyone’s chromosomes before we start?”

Tears started to well in the eyes of one of our friends.

"My son doesn't like himself," she said, reaching for a tissue.

@AlanBixter I know women who look wealthy but don’t have the financial freedom to buy a coffee, a card for a friend or even speech therapy for their child. Hidden purchases via gift cards are their only option. They used to use Medicare cash rebates for the same purpose. 2/2

[Kasey Edwards @KaseyEdwards]

@AlanBixter Another reason might be financial abuse. Some women are only “permitted” by their husbands to spend money on groceries. Any discretionary purchases (even items for kids such as uniforms or birthday presents) are triggers for control and abuse. 1/2
