Not sure I could love Germaine Greer any more than I do. Everytime I watch this clip 💜💜 her a little more. For all the sex denialists this is the original critique of “gender”. Take note: Women are a sex class.
Just amazing that the conclusion Owen draws from this is "women shouldn't have their own spaces" rather than "men should do something about their own behaviour"
The great Paul Whitehouse is 68 years old today, which means I am obliged to post this (again!) - arguably the most majestically random but brilliant comedy sketch committed to celluloid for at least the last, what, forty, forty five years?
Yes, forty, forty five years.
Happy birthday Paul 🤘
This. How could it not be? For an infant to be bereaved of the one person it needs and wants most in the world happens sometimes, and it’s tragic every time. The idea of deliberately bringing it about is abhorrent.
Hey @LOrealGroupe I like your #hairdye but would you ever sell tubes of colourant and developer on their own? We don't need plastic gloves, plastic tray, comb, conditioner and cardboard box every time we dye our hair. #Loreal#plastic#Sustainability#waste RT if you agree.
No. People used to say all gay people had aids. They were afraid to hire lesbians and gays. We couldn't get married. Couldn't walk down the street safely out with our wives. Now we can. We've achieved equality. No one is telling trans people they can't exist or get married. Actually they're more hirable than the straights. We're saying they don't get thier own cities. They don't get cosmetic surgery on my dime. And they should leave kids the fuck alone.
The BBC has been hit with a wave of complaints after a white man in blackface appeared on a show to weigh in on his experience on racism, dividing listeners online.
Ok. So that didn’t happen.
But this did.
Women are fed up.
Trans allies at the BBC are allowed flags in their bios, TQ ally in email signatures, pronouns, to force other people to use pronouns, told to describe rapists as women.
But a ‘facial expression’ while saying ‘pregnant women’ instead of ‘people’? GULAG

MEN: We want access to women's spaces.
GOVERNMENT: Consider it done.
<Ten years later>
WOMEN: The law says men don't have access to women's spaces.
GOVERNMENT: We need guidance, a Regulatory Impact Assessment, it's very complicated, it's too expensive, what even is a woman?
Let me explain instead how this is a perfect example of how trans identifying men are NOT women.
The idea that a woman’s existence is only as valid as her outer appearance is a FOUNDATIONAL concept of misogyny.
And while women have spent decades peeling back our skin to prove
that beating hearts lie beneath our breasts
that brains exist behind our eyes
that humanity lives inside of us
that we are MORE than how we look…
Men have slipped on our sheddings, to wear as lingerie.
For “funsies.”
Then they have the absolute gall to claim that, should their mimicry of the most superficial, sexualized parts of us be in any way convincing
(Cadigan’s is not)
THAT is what proves they are “real women.”
The shallowness of this declaration is devastatingly offensive.
The only thing it “affirms” is the painful perception that women have felt projected on us for so very, very long:
That we are “only good for one thing.”
That’s why this person is not only a man, but also absolutely hideous to me.

ADOPTION takes an abandoned child and tries to help them heal.
SURROGACY intentionally inflicts the abandonment,
then hands the child to the adults who caused it.
Ban surrogacy 👇
