I could be wrong but I think she mischeviously held back from elaborating on which cheek she had in mind for the 'R' tattoo to be placed.

While Germaine Greer's feminism seeks liberation (for everyone, not just women) the others seek equality and parity between the sexes. Everyone is equal on the heart level but how can equality in terms of worldly actions or deeds ever be achieved? This is complete nonsense.

md Yes, googling Piers Morgan and it turns out he is actually a year younger than her. It's interesting that she was born just one month after Martin Luther King made his famous 'I have a dream' speech and two months before that memorable day of the deaths of President Kennedy, Aldous Huxley and C. S. Lewis.
Jo Wow, she has a bit of a nerve, doesn't she. But perhaps she's just suggesting that their way of thinking is on its way out? She can't be too young herself… Google Google… she's 55.

You'd think a criminologist would have spotted that, wouldn't you? I notice that a few seconds later she also refers to victims as "they".


I don't think these sorts of discrepancies really matter to him or the media, Jo. Ageism also seems to be lower down in the hierarchy of topics and 'isms' most likely to cause public outrage. Lysette Anthony certainly had no qualms pulling out the ageist card in her tirade against Germaine Greer and opponents of #MeToo in yesterday's Express :

I have been outraged by [Germaine Greer's] cruel inflammatory soundbites. Women don't need to be whittled away by other women. Life's tough enough at times.

Melanie Phillips has also railed against the #MeToo movement. Repeatedly. As has Piers Morgan. As has Michael Portillo. My goodness what a curious self-serving bunch. Ageing, too, which is the common denominator.

It does matter though when these sorts of stories are seen and used as 'evidence' in law courts and jury rooms.
