That's disgraceful and I feel sorry for her too Arista.

Round of applause for what she said.

Good to see women fighting back against being obliterated ...pregnant people lol

The Slim Reaper 22-06-2025 01:43 PM

Hallelujah. Good to see the height of female ambition is being called women. 31% of children in the UK live in poverty, but at least you've got a word :laugh:

Crimson Dynamo 22-06-2025 02:18 PM

The apparent correction, during a broadcast on Saturday lunchtime, was endorsed by JK
Rowling, the Harry Potter author and gender campaigner, who posted a clip of the incident on X.

“I have a new favourite BBC presenter,” she commented.

The gender-neutral term “pregnant people” is used by activists who claim to believe biological
women who may be pregnant can be men, if they identify as such.

The Slim Reaper 22-06-2025 02:35 PM

If folks can't see the blatant radicalisation behind trans people existing, then a billionaire author having a new favourite presenter, because she said "woman," should be a stark wake up call.

You're being used to focus on unimportant things, over and above feeding our families and having decent living standards for everyone in the UK. Interesting that a billionaire who should be paying more, is leading this charge.

I have no idea whether this is true or not, but if it is, it should be the one issue in this thread that rightly and justifiably raises feminist ire, but it won't, because she said "woman."

"there is no social revolution without the liberation of women," has been changed by women themselves, to "look, she said a word." Sad times.

If you recall she took the BBC to task for ageism a year or so ago

Stop it. Men haven't tried to take words away from you. Support for trans people is highest amongst lesbians. Do those women not count?

Micro-focussing on a word as actual women's rights are being eroded around the world, is wild.

The belief that supporting trans people and supporting women are mutually exclusive is the biggest misconception on the forum.

Disliking individual women on the forum does not make anyone a misogynist, in the same way that women on the forum not liking me, doesn't make them man-haters.

They have no interest in holding genuinely misogynistic posts/posters to account, but say you also support trans people, and all of a sudden, you're ready to chain every woman to a kitchen sink.

Is it, Just because I take issue with how someone dresses in a very sexually explicit way who is idolised by little girls, if her target audience were adults I would have no issue at all why is that hilarious? please explain it to me

What I find ‘hilarious’ is that you claim to ‘support all women’, but only as long as they fit into your idea of what’s ‘appropriate’. Sabrina Carpenter doesn’t owe you, or anyone, a dress code, regardless of who looks up to her. Girls aren’t that fragile, and women aren’t public property. If your ‘support’ only applies when women dress and behave to your personal standard, it’s not support at all.

What a ridiculous statement, she can dress how she pleases, however if she is influencing little girls, its a moral dilemma, unless you want to live in a peado paradise of course, I can disagree with how she dresses on stage and still support women, its not mutually exclusive, I mean you want men with penises in womens spaces then say you support women, now THAT is hilarious

What a mess of a reply. Criticising a woman for how she dresses doesn’t make you some champion for little girls, it just makes you the fashion police. The ‘paedo paradise’ line is gross and desperate, as if bare legs and a low neckline somehow justify predatory behaviour. The only people responsible for that are the predators themselves.

And as for ‘you want men with penises in women’s spaces’, laughable. Trans women are women, and repeating this tired ‘danger in the bathroom’ trope doesn’t make your point, it just shows how little you understand about women’s safety and solidarity. Trans women don’t attack women in bathrooms. Men do though.

So no, you don’t ‘support women’; you support women when they stay within boundaries you’ve decided for them, and you use that as an excuse to attack others. That’s not feminism. That’s policing and discrimination dressed up as ‘concern’

The Slim Reaper 22-06-2025 06:25 PM

The same attitudes that blame women themselves for being sexually assaulted. Madonna, Beyoncé, Miley, and Dua Lipa, to name but a few, are not dressing like prostitutes and pushing young girls into a lifetime of harlotry.

Women being free to dress how they like should be celebrated. When we have Muslim women wearing Hijabs, everyone has an opinion on how wrong that is, but a free young women dressing for herself is cause for moral panic?

Hypocritical to say the least.

Little girls in Gaza are having limbs amputated and their lives ended on a daily basis, but I don't see an outpouring of feminist support on the forum for that group.

People are free to feel how they like, but maybe folks shouldn't be so liberal with cries of misogyny when they help perpetuate stereotypes that have harmed women through the last 1600 years.

Crimson Dynamo 22-06-2025 06:29 PM

Ms Croxall made headlines in April for challenging a pro-transgender activist who said April's Supreme Court ruling on the definition of sex within the 2010 Equality Act might need some 'clarification'.

In a live interview with the presenter just after the ruling, campaigner and ex-Labour MSP candidate Heather Herbert - who has now joined the Greens - said: 'I feel like I'm under attack.'

He clashed with Ms Croxall throughout the segment, as the host questioned how it was an 'attack', adding he felt it was just a 'clarification of what the word "woman" means'.

Ms Croxall said the case made clear 'sex is binary and immutable' when the activist said local authorities which have not protected single-sex spaces on the basis of biological sex may need to reconsider in light of the ruling.

When Herbert asked for 'clarification', the presenter replied: 'The ruling is that "woman" means biological sex.'

As predicted. Ignored 90% of my post and resorts to ‘you’re a man, sit down’. It doesn’t matter what you call trans women, they are women, and your ‘dictionary policing’ doesn’t make your point any stronger. What it does make clear is that you don’t ‘support all women’; you only support the ones you deem acceptable.

Trans women aren’t a threat to women. The threat to women has always been male violence and patriarchal discrimination and no amount of sneering ‘lol’ can change that fact. So maybe try addressing that, instead of punching down at those who already have enough to deal with.

Sit down, there is a there about a LBGTQ suicide line where fair enough people want to be heard by someone who knows what they are going through, you know NOTHING about being a woman so sit down and get back in your box
