On the back of International Non-Binary Peoples Day we discuss what a nonsense non-binary is and how it essentially functions as an attempt at retreat from womanhood (female adulthood) for many girls and young women, leaving in its wake the potential dismantling of women's rights for all. Episode includes debunking the existence of gender identity at all, how we are already seeing a return to 'True Trans' by the Transgender lobby after being given an inch and taking a mile, plus how demanding other people use pronouns is embarrassing and cringe.

In this episode we tell the stories of how we gradually hit 'peak Trans' (reaching 'peak Trans' or 'peaking' refers to realising that the liberal media narrative around Transgenderism is false). This is told from a perspective as lesbians and activists on the socialist far-Left.

We discuss the emergence of Traditionalism and its surge in popularity amongst Gen Z. In a world of porn, online dating, cost of living crisis, and increasing alienation, why are young people turning to traditional catholicism, romanticising feudalism, and rejecting democracy in favour of monarch rule? We go over Trad's aspirations (marriage and children), its sexual politics (please, no more porn!) and other rising subgroups of volcels (voluntary celibates), femcels (women deciding to be celibate), and incels (involuntary celebrates) that are each responses to the current landscape of dating app merry-go-rounds, normalisation of BDSM, and the downturn in privacy and adult independence. Traditional sexual politics is seen as the antidote to these, with women turning to conservative dating apps like The Right Stuff to find a man who isn't interested in a polycule or calling himself a woman. 

The latter third of the episode concerns what Marx actually meant by 'abolishing the family' and the liberal Left's twisted version of it that promotes surrogacy, brothels, sterilising gender non-conforming children, and, of course, unbridled access to violent porn. We end on Sophie Lewis (author of Full Surrogacy Now) and her call for a caste of women who will be sexually exploited by all - a mirror of the call for a caste of women in prostitution. Final remarks are on Lewis's claim that people can experience 'queer love' with octopi (perhaps there will be a squid on the Pride flag soon).

This episode begins with a focus on what Pride was, the marketing disasters of Bud Light and Target, and why the concept of 'chosen family', recently endorsed by high street chain Primark, is stupid. Why are companies invested in supporting the increase of letters in the LGBTQA+ alphabet soup?  We argue there is a corporate interest in promoting the continual extension of LGBTQA+ because it builds a greater market to sell Pride affiliated products to - the more straight people who identify in expands the 'rainbow demographic' of buyers. We also discuss the events of Pride Month, specifically the proposed reforming of the UK Equality Act to insert 'biological' in front of 'sex' so it's harder to conflate sex with gender identity. Jen tells the story of Labour MP Lloyd Russell-Moyle in her kitchen in relation to his contribution in parliament against emboldening these sex-based provisions in law. Finally, we comment on the break slamming u-turn of Melbourne University over the last 4 weeks and the irony of targeting lesbian academic Holly Lawford-Smith during Pride Month.

Formerly beloved British TV presenter Phillip Schofield has recently been sacked and exposed for grooming, but the child grooming aspect of the case has been obfuscated by an emphasis on 'lying' and winding the narrative around sleeping with a colleague with less status. We discuss the taboo around grooming in our society and why people feel more comfortable talking moralistically about less harmful sexual issues than child sexual abuse. Who does that serve ideologically? And why is it so hard to maintain focus on the reality of child grooming when supposedly everyone deplores it?

Last time we record in the park! Apologies for the background noise.

The episode is about Kathleen Stock's appearance last week at the Oxford Union, with a rather large interlude in the middle of that discussion about the environmentalism movement and its particular class composition. With mention of Hegel, Lenin's internship at the Winter Palace, and Stock's status as premier golden retriever lesbian, we cover the ridiculousness of 'safe spaces' at Oxford and how self-advancement is the key purpose of the protests we saw last week.
 
 This episode was recorded in a park - so expect some breeze, planes, and birds - but we are soon investing in microphones! With windshields, other professional equipment, and plan to do the show in a properly set up studio environment as of next month.

After taking part in a Twitter space organised by some Australian feminists last week on the theme of feminism and the far-right, we spend this episode answering the rest of the questions that were intended to be discussed during the space. We cover the differences between fascism and communism, the history of No Platforming, whether communistic / socialist countries are democracies, whether feminism is antithetical to fascism (short answer: yes, entirely), why fascists claim to care about pedophilia, and much more. 

This episode is about obnoxious rightwing commentator Steven Crowder's newly public divorce and his tactics to Amber Heard his wife via the courts and public smearing. We discuss the security footage that shows Steven threatening his 8-months pregnant wife who was carrying twins and how limiting a resource (such as a car) is a form of control. We also chat about how neither the rightwing or the Left live up to the sexual politics each promotes, with the 'sex positive' Left actually being incredibly traditional and the Right frequently beset by 'sex scandals'. We move on to how fathers often become jealous of their newborn babies and Jen fails to pronounce Candice Owens' name correctly.

After a Twitter space attended by 400-women about 'feminist grifting' hosted by anonymous user 'Kylie' we discuss the merits of the claim that Kellie-Jay Keen, aka Posie Parker, is a 'grifter' (defined as a person who engages in petty or small-scale swindling). We talk about Kelly-Jay Keen's experience of mob violence in New Zealand, how the far-right are radicals who want to totally reorganise society and are therefore not conservatives in any sense, before moving on to Trump derangement syndrome and other liberal afflictions. This episode also features our analysis of how limited the false dichotomy of the 'personal is political' is and how it fundamentally leaves out what's important: politics. We make a case for populism and how terms like 'nonce', 'pedo', and 'goof' are part of the vernacular of the working-class and how the Left has ceded ground and handed an area of success to the far-right by being absolutely terrible on the issue of CSA (child sexual abuse) and safeguarding. 

Special guest Shay Woulahan and RedFem's Hannah Berrelli discuss Let Women Speak's recent successful event in Belfast. They touch on issues of how sectarianism impacts feminist organising in Northern Ireland, address the presence of notorious unionist Jolene Bunting, and elaborate on the nature of anti-Irish racism in Belfast (including the "fuck the Pope" chants by the counter-protesters at Let Women Speak). Plus discussion of Rosa Luxemburg, socialist-feminism, why it's vital to allow all women a voice to speak on their experiences of misogyny, and what happened in the pub after the Let Women Speak event.
