Yay, Julie! Sounds right on target to me that feminists’ efforts should be expended upon ending male violence against women. The misogyny is obvious to me in the violence being committed against female bodies by surgeons. I wish more people (particularly women) would see that industry for what it is: violent male domination of human bodies. It *can* be used for constructive (or reconstructive) purposes, but usually isn’t because the control of the industry comes from male dominated association. Surgery is *always* violent, and this extreme body modification idea *could only have come from male minds perverted against Nature.* Great interview. Thanks!
Thank you, Jo, for addressing the issue of language. It’s sad that we can’t speak basic truths, but it was useful to hear Julie explain why she toes the line.

Many thanks for this discussion. I'm looking forward to reading Feminism for Women.
Young working class woman here- thank you Julie. I can't wait to read your book. Me and my sister listen to all your interviews and are learning so much every day.
The book is great. Highly recommended.
Wonderful to hear julie bindel as always. She is an inspiration.
Thank you so much for this conversation.❤️
Sorry I missed the live feed - I have this book on order and have been waiting for it to arrive. Hopefully this week.
Fantastic conversation! Thank you both so much. And I just went to Amazon, and bought the book!!! Love you, Julie; thanks for everything you’ve done, and do.
Smash the LIKE button gurls
I love Julie Bindel so much. ❤️
Great interview! Loved the occasional surprise pop-up Julia Long too!
One of the things I find buried in current polemics in and around feminism/s is lesbianism, and that fact that historically lesbians have remained marginalized as the LGBTQ+ "community" has expanded to include "everyone." Groundbreaking essays such as Adrienne Rich's Compulsory Heterosexuality and Lesbian Existence (1980) is just one example of the radicalizing role lesbians have played in the women's movement.
Activism in the 1990s focusing on gay marriage rather than on challenging the whole institution of marriage (as was done initially in France and Germany) ended up normalizing lesbian and gay partnerships, that more so mimicking hetero-normative social structures than challenge it.
In short, over the last 40 years radical feminist ideals been effectively silenced.
What a great interview!
Proof of the male domination of lesbian spaces appears in the interview of Christie Walker on K Davis' YT channel, You're Kiddin', Right? When I experienced the ideation of my ex husband into a female persona in the early 1990s, many of my lesbian friends told me they were not appreciating the presence of these individuals in their spaces. This was said by at least a half dozen of my friends, but always in quiet, cautious tones. May we prevail, and soon!
Great conversation, thank you.
I don’t know that I agree with Julie in every respect (judging by interviews I’ve seen at least), but I love the bones of her.
Julie Bindel is beyond awesome. A much needed voice in these taxing times.
I wish TV would just be WRHC, Bindel, Jeffreys and other great feminists - woman made news, comedy and talk shows. Then I could know what it feels like to be a man.
YEEESH!!!!!!! WGM!!!

@@dragonfox2.058 I've finished. I preordered her book and ten minutes ago I got a text from the post office that I can pick it up! Maybe there is a God, after all? Maybe it's Julie Bindel!? 😮😂🤣
It's so wonderful to have heard her say that so many women in their early 20s bought her book. It's very encouraging!
I tend to think of liberal feminism as counter revolutionary feminism.
second wave feminist here- words and names matter. in Canada we try not to name the shooter at ecole polytechnique. we want his name to die. just ordered your book Julie !
Thank you 🌻
Aargh, the live webinars are always on anywhere between 1-3 am where I am.
I've just read Julie's article regarding 'Karen's' she's completely off the mark, the first time i heard the name in a derogatory way was by 3 young women on a BBC chat show, they showed pure hatred towards white middle aged women calling them Karen's, most of the people using the term on RUclips are young women not men.
