John Humphreys has always advocated equality in journalism and equal pay for equal work.
It is called meritocracy.
Ultimately we will be left with only female presenters on the news, sports, chat shows, sitcoms, weather, stand up, reality shows, because all the guys are too scared to open their mouths in case they are categorised as devious sexist pigs.

Will they support Locomotive Islington or Spartak Highgate?
On a serious note don't you think tweets like this actually stifle debate around social constructs? It's almost as if certain parts of the population think it's cool to be offended by everything. Surely there are more pressing matters that can be discussed around gender equality/sexism than a packet of sweets.

It's moved on from PC towards a culture of unfounded victimisation based on individual comments taken out of context and/or withour regard for any other evidence. This seems to be born out of social media.
When I said recently that Germany was not my favourite country my son accused me of being racist! I had to explain that Germany was a nation and not a race and that I was allowed to prefer Italy to Germany if only because of the food and climate.
I also had to explain that the dinner table was not an internet forum and his irrational pre judgement warranted an apology.
Yes, there are bad people and injustices but we should be clear about the balance and depth of evidence before we condemn people.
One of my daughters (13) calls all and and sundry a bully, for such terrible things as telling her to have a bath, shower, her hair, tidy her room, wash dishes, etc. She also says "she's offended" if we dare to suggest she's slow in doing tasks etc, or lazy because she doesn't want to move from her bedroom unless dragged (verbally) tooth and nail. Her sister (12) calls her sister ungrateful every single time the older one is rude to us or complains at doing something. They are both bright girls, yet I fear education is failing the youth of today

Schools aren't there to teach good manners. That's your job, fella'.
An idea isn't responsible for those who believe in it.

Half th e problem these days is that parents see schools as responsible for teaching kids all the things the parents can’t be arsed or don’t know how to do.

I did about eight minutes. Do you actually believe that shit Bryn?
Yes..because I believe in a meritocracy where people are treated equally regardless of gender. Also, to deny there are differences between man and women is, I believe, erroneous.

A Sargon classic about a recent discussion between Jordan Peterson, a clinical psychologist and Cathy Newman from Channel 4 about equal pay.
One for Mo here, though he's probably already seen it.
I did catch that last night, Brynnie. Here's the actual debate...
As usual with Dr Peterson they try to twist his words and claim he's saying things he didn't say. I suspect the left wing press were hoping for the story of how Cathy Newman exposed 'Alt-right hate preacher' Jordan Peterson. Since he dismantled her and her arguments I'm expecting them to take the focus off the debate she lost and make the story 'Cathy Newman attacked by on line trolls who hate strong, independent women and follow 'Alt-right hate preacher' Jordan Peterson.
Edit - Video didn't post. Can be found on channel 4 you tube account (Jordan Peterson debate on the gender pay gap...)

Feminists/SJW: Women in the west are oppressed.. Person B: No they're not Feminist/SJW: Why do you think women are picking on you?
I have a skin as thick as a rhino, H, but maybe some young boys and men do not. If what Dr Peterson and others are are saying (that 40 or 50 years of feminism shaping our society to suit girls has led to young men becoming disenfranchised, killing themselves in record numbers, dropping out of education etc) is correct, then do you not agree this is a problem? Do you think we should investigate it's truth? Or are you just gonna post pithy comments suggesting anyone who does is weak? Like I say, I am doing fine but if young men are in a position where they need people to speak out for them, then like the feminists of yesterday, I am willing to do that. And if you want, like the sexist who tried to block their attempts, you carry on trying to ridicule...
Look Hump, you like to imply I hate women or think women are shit. I don't...some women are shit (Myra Hindley) and some are fantastic (Sian Massey). Nearly all women I come across in life I have a fantastic relationship with. Here, look, this is how I interact with them...
(Please note, they are also 'women of colour')
What I am criticising is feminist ideology. Criticising feminists and what they believe is not criticising all women. Feminism and women are not the same thing. Have a look around and you will see many videos by women explaining why they are not feminist and why they reject it. In my life I meet women who are far more capable than myself. This does not intimidate me...I say go girls. A few decades ago I would have been agreeing with feminist, but today we have equality.
Unfortunately, feminists don't understand the difference between 'equality of opportunity' and 'equality of outcome'. We should have equal opportunity...people should be free to choose whatever profession they want, regardless of their sex (or colour/sexuality). And if people are FREE to choose we will not end up with equal male/female representation. The only way to get that is to force women to take jobs they would not choose. Choose equality (of outcome) or choose freedom.
And btw the people crying about the 'Gender pay gap' will next week be telling us how there's no difference between the genders. There are no differences between the genders...so how can there be a 'gender pay gap'? Checkmate dummies

Rise up my brother...you have nothing to lose but your chains
At the risk of coming across like some objectifying chauvinist (or whatever the tag of the week may be) have a look at the blonde on the right, Mo. I reckon if I skipped breakfast I could eat that in one go...

It's no wonder they're messed up in the head if you gave them numbers instead of names.
The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.
