@mplpodcast305 100% can confirm, always judgement! It’s very hard to be taken seriously (particularly in male dominated industries) if you’re busty…. Even if you are always completely covered. Sexualisation and objectification of women (and girls) has got WAAAAAY out of control!

@Sara_Rose_G 100% spot on. Watching someone in the crowd hug her (amongst all the standard handshakes) made me feel tearful. A moment of recognition that people are with her and aware of the way she’s been treated

@NicolaSturgeon This made me chuckle. The comments however, crikey how do you deal with that shit every day. Something as innocuous as a joke about getting your shoes back, turns into a pile on about wearing a mask. what is wrong with people?

@DrProudman So many people in the comments not understanding your point AT ALL!! Clearly none of them have been called “aggressive” for merely being assertive. Women are often called aggressive when displaying the same traits that would be called “assertive” in a man!

@_Leyanelle_ @sharrond62 @JaneyGodley It is public knowledge that Janey was raped as a child by her own uncle and prosecuted him as an adult. And also that her mother was murdered at the hands of her boyfriend… so I find it incredibly hard to believe that “Janey has been horrible to survivors of sexual violence” 🤔

@Aiannucci You’re definitely Scottish. Why would anyone want to identify as “British” when the connotations are racism, colonialism and bigotry. These comments also reinforce that.

@manogalo_ @wejustnormalmen @William_Castro so the story goes that the pupeteer had been stopped by police with a few friends of his and while being questioned at the police station, this is something his friend had said "we're just normal men... etc" He had told Lauren the story earlier and was now referencing it on air

@wyatthaplo @DrProudman A vibrator is very clearly an object. A reasonable comparison would be a fleshlight. A sex doll which is specifically designed to be as realistic as possible (to a woman) further ads to dehumanising women. It reinforces the narrative that woman are objects. I hope this helps

@lizzo Victoria’s Secret doesn’t even do bras in my size (40GG in the uk, 40J in the states)….. so unless they start making products for larger bodies there’s no point in pretending that there’s a “plus size” target market for them. Why bother with a “plus size” model?
