Maya is amazing. They certainly messed with the wrong woman with her. x

That was brilliant! Shame about the nobheads trying to create discord in the chat. Of course if you hadn’t joined in to support Helen and commented then you would have been “jealous” and “afraid that Helen’s channel will become more popular”. No win situation with those types of people unfortunately. They always manage to contrive ways to make it about them but pretend it’s in the defence of someone else. Anywaaay, fantastic interview, well done Helen! Maya was as amazing as ever. Will share on the dreaded bird app. I don’t know if it’s just me but I love listening to Maya- her voice is so lovely and the way she speaks is so precise and clearly enunciated. I’m getting old, enunciation matters 😂

I just saw one comment

I saw a couple. “Shame about Graham” for example at the end. I didn’t see anyone say you would be ‘jealous’, I was just guessing what would have been said if you hadn’t shown up to join in and show support. For some people you can’t do right for doing wrong, mate! You just have to keep on being you because you’ll never please everyone and there’s no point in trying 👍🏻 You ARE greatly appreciated and loved even though it probably doesn’t feel like it with all infighting going on 💜

we just need to start talking around them, like Helen Joyce said

Absolutely, Graham! Ignoring the provocation is the only option. Although I have failed miserably a couple of times recently and should have been a better person. The “feminist” YouTuber personalities slogging it out on Gettr just gets me riled up because it is so obnoxious and divisive. Anyway I’ll shut up now 🤫 It was a good day with Helen’s maiden launch on her channel, hope you put your feet up and chill and sleep well tonight 👍🏻

Yes Graham is dammed if he does, or dammed if he doesn't … by a certain section!

upsetting for me, I have had to give up wine :(

Red grape juice works well, and elderflower cordial in soda water is good to feel a bit celebratory :-)

Last night I had a non-alcoholic cocktail which was really delicious and very 'sippable' because the flavour was tangy. I think that will be the way to go!

I will join you in non-alcoholic yet tangy spirit the next time there's a WWW or maybe a TMWI! Here's to your good health :-)

Well done to Helen - very enjoyable - and thank you to you Graham.

Did someone suggest in the comments that you should write the Maya Forstator film/play?

Expand full comment

Yes. The suggestion was "Maya - the musical!" But she already has a few ideas for this... as told to the audience at Bush Hall on Friday 1st April. Great evening!

Wonderful to listen to these two brilliant women! Wow!

Can I request that next time you explain anything you refer to that's happened in the past couple of days for those of us not in the loop? There were a couple of references that I didn't understand - what did Kathleen Stock tweet about what photo?

Other than that - fab! Thanks to you both for everything you're doing. Brave women!

No wine in the house! Damn! And yet I still watched, listened and reveled in what these two women had to say. Their speaking out makes me a little braver. And, I'll make sure to have a glass of wine on hand for Helen's next "Wine and Women" interview. What wine goes best with a bit of wise TERFery?
