The 99 Women list.
So the BBC thinks women need a bit of help from men to achieve greatness.
The Beeb is trolling us. That’s a point, who is in charge at the BBC nowadays? It surely must be a woman or gay man as everybody knows straight men aren’t guilty of being woketards, and besides, said men are never guilty of making a hash of things…are they?
Yes …. they are deliberately gaslighting. Best ignored …. and don’t PAY them the telly tax.
Same with men though when you really think about it.
You, if you are a licence payer, are paying for this.
defund the BBC.
“The broadcaster said: “BBC 100 Women acknowledges the toll this year has taken on women by celebrating those who – through their resilience – are pushing for change, as the world changes around them.” …”
You know full well that they aren’t talking about the men dressing as women as being a toll, but rather the “far right” and Trump crowd as being a toll…
BBC is a pile of crap
And here is why men who parody women should not be allowed to enter womens’ sports. And to think that Canadian lady was banned for two years from competing by her sporting body for protesting about this. Can you imagine many male competitors being threatened by any female to male ( FtM ) trans people stealing their medals in comparison? Male athletes get to keep their medals/trophies/opportunities while women get theirs nicked by male impostors;

“The BBC says the scientist uses a “queer lens to analyse landscapes and species in a bid to expand the notion of ‘nature’ to better protect ecosystems”.
wtf does that even mean? What shape is a queer lens? This isn’t science its gobbledegook!
Bent. It distorts the image.
One fundamental problem with being woke, in my opinion, is this: you have to live your life in a tangled web of lies.
War is peace. Slavery is freedom. A man is a woman.
There is no way you can escape from this psychologically (and spiritually) unharmed.
The rule for the BBC should be “do no pontificating”, given its unique position of getting 100% of license fee money, everybody else getting nothing. Pontificating is both political and biased.
For me, nothing says ”It’s Christmas!” like hanging a used Tampax on a Christmas tree. I’ve often fought the urge to make wings for my angel out of bloody sanitary pads too. Right at the top of the tree, of course, out the way of the cat. Well here we take the word ”queer” back to it’s original meaning, although the word ”rank” is probably more appropriate, to be honest. Yes, we’re in Germany ( the gift that doesn’t stop giving ) yet again;
”While many in Europe are preparing for Christmas, students from the German University of Göttingen have been setting up an event using festive decorations made from bloody tampons and “butterfly decorations from pads”.
The Allgemeiner Studierendenausschuss (AStA), the political representation of the students, will host a lecture under the title “Oh my bloody mess. Trans and non-binary people bleed too”.
Following that lecture, the AStA will offer to create themed Christmas decorations and ornaments.
In the talk, the group said: “The basics of transitions are explained”, with ‘bloody’ insights into the different lives of menstruating trans and non-binary people.”
“Have you always wanted to hang a bloody tampon on your mom’s Christmas tree or make a beautiful butterfly decoration out of sanitary pads?,” AStA asked on its Instagram account on November 26. “Then it’s your evening. Welcome. The event is open to everyone.”
Speaker at the event on December 5 will be Alexander Hahne, who identifies as a gay trans man, specialising in sexual health, sex education, sexological bodywork, systemic sex therapy, dance and pleasure activism.
Sexological bodywork is described as a client-centred approach to empower, educate and bring attention to felt experience through movement, breath-work, touch, sound, and placement of awareness. Systemic sex therapy addresses the cognitions, emotions and behaviours surrounding sexual behaviour.”

I would have thought this was some sick satire if I had not wasted half an evening of my life listening to a real female BBC comedian also telling jokes about used tampons.
we’re in Germany ( the gift that doesn’t stop giving)
In German, ‘gift’ means poison…
They’ve got a drag artist as a contestant on the Christmas day edition of “Strictly”. I have no problem with drag but it is an adult entertainment and should not be pushed on a family audience at 5.30 on Christmas Day.
Exactly. Look at the state of this, but it’s very common in the U.S and Canada, apparently. Mams and dads cheering and encouraging this drag queen with this little girl. They are complicit in the grooming. Totally inappropriate. But according to some on here, straight men cannot be woketards, it’s all women and gay men, but there’s more evidence floating around and contradicting this biased viewpoint than you can shake a stick at;
”No one should be influencing children to dance for adults for money. This teaches them that their self worth is only equal to outwards attention and monetary value.
It is irresponsible for drag queens to involve children in their lifestyle and it makes the LGBT community as a whole look bad.
This is not representing inclusivity and love. This is inappropriate behavior that will only confuse children and can put them in dangerous situations.”

Pure child abuse. Look at both parents sat there, endorsing this treatment of their daughter;
https://x.com/HazelAppleyard_/status/1863899280852885757
As you say it is pure child abuse and I do not think he understands that he will never have a viable penis or be able to father children.

It has changed since the days of Danny La Rue.
Well of course it did!
Quite obviously a bloke with fake boobs and a bad wig. Definitely not a woman – except in the opinion of the imbeciles at the BBC.
Excellent. It’s all grist to the mill of rendering the BBC irrelevant also in the opinion of normies.
We must be reaching a tipping point soon!
They couldn’t resist using the word ‘resilience’ and this is a big tell because it is a word beloved of the Anglo-Americans in their dying days and if you look at how how the word is used you will notice a trend of pure evil.
The argument from nature is irrelevant in this context. There may well be elements of genderfuildity in all species but human beings don’t base the shaping of their culture on a natural model. You could argue that civilisation is measured by how far man is taken away from his animal nature. This appeal to biology has always been weak and pathetic whichever side uses it. We adopt ways of being that promote the long term health of society and this is based on sacrifice. A man might want to have sex with many women but he accepts that marriage is a sacrifice and the whole point of his wife is to put him off sex forever. He realises that more is gained than lost by the denial of cheap gratification.
Or he could consider hiring one of these. I definitely wouldn’t walk down the street in it though. Mind, it’d probably go down a storm at a Pride parade;

Those that seem most lost right now will be our greatest heroes. I feel that he is chanelling something.
TNT Sport did not bother with any tea or lunch programming for the NZ – England test series and just broadcast some NZ produced player clips and one had a pair of lesbians NZ cricketers and ‘their’ child. So these days if they are not men pretending to be men they are lesbians.
Its no wonder other countrys are laughing at us, the BBC, supposedly a fine upstanding “corporation” now cannot but help dig its own grave even quicker, born male, male, same with female, live how you choose, but despite claiming nature has the “ability” to be “queer”, you will find it doesn’t, and to think these people get paid for this bias!.
Turn off all msm it simply is not fit for purpose.
I am sick to death of the BBC’s agenda. For godsake, turn the bbc off. Stop funding it. It is not fit for purpose.
