Woman's Hour

It has to be a wind up, or clever irony? If GN was solely concerned with matters domestic I for one wouldn't be interested in it, though these topics are sometimes interesting, because we do live in the real world..

But women's rights and women's issues are still as important today as they were when the suffragettes fought for the right to be heard. We are fortunate to live in a society where they CAN be raised. And fought for!

So we gained equality with the vote in 1928? how come there is still a gender pay gap, fewer women n top jobs, hardly any women in parliament etc is this is because they are " not up,to the challenge" ? I give up
....

Always been the same with Womans Hour. Do they still do euthanasia regularly?

OP is a wind up. isn't it?

I thought it was the Suffrage women who did most of the fighting.
And today a capable confident qualified woman,(or person) can be what she wants to be,the ones doing the moaning are not up to the challenge,so the want someone to blame.

I am furious about this
All you GNrs get back to the kitchen sink now! We don't want any of you women damaging your brains by joining any professions.

This has actually got B****R" all to do with ""feminism" as such.

It's just about women wanting to reach their intellectual potential. Men do this all the time without ever feeling they are being labled with any "isms" at all. #wandersoffintotaldespair

Apricot "You cannot be serious" Your remarks have left me wondering what the suffragettes campaigned for.

Woman themselves have for years had to campaign to acknowledged as capable of the same intellectual and professional excellence as men.

There are still big pockets of predudice against women in many professions.
Engineering in particular.

We are not still living in Edwardian times, where women should not "worry their pretty little heads" about matters of state and really complicated things like science and technology.
Get real! Or back to your place at the kitchen sink perhaps?

Your remarks seem to imply that women cannot/should not be interested in such things.

Suzied, where shall I start,Realism,Equalism,Eauality for all,straight across the board,that's what I believe.
Yesterday's feminist yes.Todays no.They,ve lost the plot.

What's wrong with feminism?

Somebody save us from bleddy feminist.Try ignoring them,that may work grrr!

Apricot I agree with you - I can't listen to it.
But it's one of my husband's favourite radio programmes

I like woman's hour and it's mix of topics. If some women are asking for equality on banknotes etc then we should hear their arguments. Sounds reasonable to me. I don't like it when they do cooking on it as you can't see what they are eating.
