I don't care who made the remarks. I've had a great life being 'female' and my husband 'male'. Still working, still running family business and school and most importantly still enjoying life.
And your point is?
Totally outrageous, misogynistic so called news item in the dreaded DM today.
Senior Tories have accused Angela Raynor of distracting our buffoon Prime Minister by crossing and uncrossing her legs - à la Sharon Stone - in Prime Minister's question time.
Can they sink any lower???
Yet another disgusting example of the true mind sets of the guffawing Tories. They're a disgrace yet again.

MissAdventure and Madgran77, I have 4 crutches at the moment after a foot op , a pair upstairs and a pair downstairs. Good job I’m not in Parliament, I could inflame the whole House of Commons flashing those! ?

Obviously I know what I am talking about. It is you who doesn't get my meaning. Perhaps you need someone to explain to you. I've got what I want out of my 'feminine' life so I must be doing something right. Get a life ladies!!!!! There's more to having a happy fulfilled life than just burning your bra or showing your crutch to the Prime Minister.!
What, exactly, is the point you are making?
I'm sure I'm not the only one who "doesn't get" your meaning.
You've got what you want our of your 'feminine' life - good for you. But what has that got to do with this topic?
My point is this: Sir Keir Starmer and Angela Raynor sit opposite Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak - there is a dispatch in-between them. The site lines mean Boris won't see her legs.
I pointed that out on about page 1 Keffie
Johnson can't even see her legs, unless he stands up, leans over the dispatch box and has a good leer..
But what an enjoyable thread this has been..

Is this another trans thread?

Rishi hasn't been bought up in this. Only Boris cos we all know what he is like over women.
So, that leaves a perv staring at Angela legs from the benches or Nadine Dorries who dotes on Boris having a jealous strop over Angela legs to the media
Health warning: you may need a sick bucket, to view the following picture ?

A quick bra burn in the self checkouts might be a good finale!
Meanwhile, they are still trying to establish who the MP is who decoided to make those comments about Angela Rayner. I wonder whether we will ever know!

I couldn't show anyone my crutch.
I'm not at the stage of needing walking aids yet.
Crotch is the word you mean, I think, deputy.
I'm thinking of buying a crutch specially MissAdventutre just to send all the men wild in the Sainsbury's aisle. That would spice my weekly shop up a bit!!

No women have been showing their "crutch" (sic) to the Prime Minister as far as I am aware, despite the Sharon Stone reference, Angela Rayners picture actually showed legs!!. Its the men that may well have been crotch displaying. Not sure anyone has been burning bras around him either!!
Anyway glad you have got what you want with your "feminine" life. Could you possibly explain what your "feminine" life is comprised of that has got you what you want? I am wondering what exactly a "feminine" life is, as opposed to "a life!"

You must have incredibly low aspirations Wong if you get your kicks by ranting at women in an Internet forum.
I suppose you could get a life, too.
There is more to life than dictating to other women how they live theirs.

A crutch is what you use when you break a bone in your leg.

What kind of clothes do the women in your family wear, Monty.
Is it their clothes that cause them rubbish from men?

Miss adventure- I wore mini skirts in the 60’s because Mary Quant made them fashionable - what a relief to wear them with tights instead of those awful suspenders and stockings. I just cannot understand whinging women I’m afraid. Why can’t they deal with it? In Cambridge in the sixties the ratio between the sexes was something like 10 to 1 - if you didn’t want attention- simply say so and walk away. Later I taught in mixed and in boys only schools and the same thing applied. I honestly do not understand women today. My daughter and daughters in law are all high powered and perfectly able to take on rubbish from men. They get on really well with men.
What whinging women? What are they supposed to be dealing with? Which ‘women today’
I don’t understand your comments in the context of the shocking misogyny directed at the deputy leader of the Labour Party
I'm sure Angela Rayner is perfectly capable of defending herself although she was concerned that her children might read this online and rightly so.
She shouldn't have to. This is 2022 although some may not have realised this.
I thought it was a man who was whingeing? Someone from the MoS?

I have worked in male dominated settings all my life, and looking back I can remember incidents of sexist or misogynistic discrimination. But the fact that we accepted it in the 1960s or 70s does not make it all right. Monty
I am glad that your daughters and daughters in law can shrug off whatever rubbish comes in their direction. Good for them. But it looks as if the battle is not yet won.

It is a pity that it seems we have to wait until after the Local Government elections on May 5th to hear just how many times Johnson was found to have broken his own rules, and whether it has been conclusively proved that he lied to parliament and should therefore be obliged to resign.
I sincerely hope so, but it seems there are still people who like him.
They would rather put the blame for his failings onto others.
Surely Johnson has long since lost any vestige of credibilty?
It hasn't done much for Johnson's (if he ever had any)
