It’s raining misogyny! Female weather presenters reveal how they are fed up with being objectified, judged on their looks and even harassed in the streets

I have long thought that the “job” of being a “weather presenter” is the ultimate non-job. Basically, you have to read text off a teleprompter and point at a chart. That’s it. It’s money for old rope. You could pull in someone off the street and train them up in 10 minutes. The sole qualifications for the job are an ability to read, and at least one arm. Needless to say, many women are attracted to this cushy overpaid non-job (“working” less than one hour per day) which brings them to public attention and thereby feeds their narcissism. Predictably, some are now whining about being “objectified”. I’d give the whiners the option of wearing a burqa, or resigning. “Problem” solved with the powerful weapon of man logic. Our thanks to Gerry for this piece, he writes:
Male celebrities are objectified by hordes of chattering groupies, any one of whom might decide to destroy their lives on a whim. And yet, men hardly ever complain. On the other hand, women who are approached, flattered, and even seduced by famous and rich men do not complain about their experience in the same way as they do about men who do not answer that description. So the point is about class. Men do not hold a woman’s class or status against her. But women do in relation to men, and a woman will therefore complain about harassment when spoken to by a man whom she thinks is beneath her. Weather reporters are no exception.

Period pants could get cheaper after VAT is removed

Wonderful news to herald in the New Year. It would appear from the photograph accompanying the BBC piece that morbidly obese black women are disproportionately more likely than other women to wear the pants. The article doesn’t speculate on why this might be.

Julie Bindel: Action Men (Spectator TV)

Yesterday Julie Bindel launched her new video series “Action Men” for Spectator TV, a YouTube channel. The first episode is an interview (video, 34:56), Why we don’t need ‘male feminists’ – Julie Bindel & Michael Conroy | Action Men. Earlier today I posted the following comments which are still there:
It’s nothing short of shameful that The Spectator should give a platform to Julie Bindel, one of the most men-hating radical feminists of her generation (and that’s a high bar). But then The Spectator has commissioned 50+ articles from the woman, and refused to permit us to pay for a full-page ad relating truths about domestic violence which have been known to researchers, and published, for DECADES. I’ve left a lengthy response to this matter on Ms Bindel’s Substack. It includes hyperlinks to ONS data showing that women are almost twice as likely to be abused by female partners than by male partners, and the most violent couples are lesbian couples. Hmm, why does Ms Bindel never write about female violence? Why does The Spectator never give a platform to people who could tell the truth about domestic violence? Mike Buchanan JUSTICE FOR MEN & BOYS
Today Ms Bindel posted a link on her Substack, here. I’m a subscriber (£5.00pcm) and I can therefore post comments and read others’ comments. My initial comments are here. I’ve had a lengthy exchange with a male feminist which you’ll be able to read if you subscribe.
