NEELLIANGO48111: A full bosom is actually a millstone around a woman's neck. ... [Breasts] are not parts of a person but lures slung around her neck to be kneaded and twisted like magic putty or mumbled and mouthed like lolly ices.,Germaine Greer,side,

mtchknght8: Germaine Greer: Transgender women are 'not women' - BBC Newsnight
1nt39r1ty: The NZ Police arresting a woman for tipping tomato juice on someone has the same sort of feel as when Germaine Greer was arrested for saying " Bullshit" in public. It will be nationally embarrassing in retrospect.

Time to think, Let Women Speak,
Be more Germaine Greer!
“ I DON’T CARE! ”
Weskittun: Do you read your old QUARTERLY ESSAYS? In about 2003, Germaine Greer did one: White Fella Jump Up. Her thesis was that the Australian continent has 'aborginalized' the white populace, such is the effect of landscape and the outdoors. Could we all be rightly called 'Aboriginal'?
LewSOS: Chris Trotter:
* Some nuance, less so since joining the FSU
* Thinks Posie was slandered by being referred to as an “anti-trans activist”
* Believes Germaine Greer would be banned from Pride
* Pride has become too “safe” because the queers don’t want to welcome their enemies
Xoxox00xoxoX: After listening to Germaine Greer, I been thinking alot about femininity and one of my favorite movies, 'The Witches', staring Angelica Houston as the grand high witch. I loved her performance because I felt like it was a play on women. Almost satire but so good.
samueI_w: has germaine greer always been this reactionary? i’ve been recommended her work several times but always slept on it. her anti-trans tirades lead me to think i’m not missing much though.
ipsumlorems_: I don't care.

GrantEleena: Germaine Greer: Transgender women are 'not women' - BBC Newsnight
NewarkWomen: This is a fair article. But, as a mother at 23yo, who had already read Adrienne Rich, Germaine Greer, Our Bodies, Ourselves, etc, before giving birth, the stage of dissociation from femaleness is not necessary and even inexcusable?
banthebbc: Never thought I'd find myself agreeing with Germaine Greer but its an indication of how far gone this 'trans' agenda is. This interview was several years ago and its all got worse since.
Oct 2015 - Germaine Greer : "Transgender men are not women"
genspect: In this blog about a talk by Germaine Greer, lots of salient points about care and women are highlighted by Greer.
The great majority of very elderly people are female, so women should be fighting for improved conditions for carers and for women in care.

K_Flynny369: By Germaine Greer
ausbrum: Fascinating to see that Posy Parker & Co are regurgitating what Germaine Greer said more than 10 years ago and was pilloried for it at the time
Roa_emm: Listening to Germaine Greer you can actually see her TERFness as an inability to recognize Otherness outside cisgender white Womanness. Her theories about women are totally on point, but anything outside that is inaccessible for her. She's Karen-y in that sense.
waltydunlop: A moment's cacophony for birthday boy Viv Stanshall, who should have been 80 today. Here he is enjoying a quiet moment with Germaine Greer for "Oz" magazine.

TAFKAMacM: So what owning-the-feminists attention-seeking antics will Billy Bragg get up to this week? As he appears to be in Australia, my bet is pissing through Germaine Greer's letterbox.

j4ppleby: More than a touch of Germaine Greer in this amazing woman, and it's not just the auzzie accent
JohnMpuuga2: Germaine Greer on women's liberation, the trans community and her rape
evansmithhist: This was back in 2014-15. Then the protests against Germaine Greer at Cardiff University happened, and then everyone from the far right to the reactionary centre were invested in amplifying that there was a free speech ‘crisis’, with anti-trans campaigners front and centre.

mammywatta: *We in the West do not refrain from childbirth because we are concerned about the population explosion or because we feel we cannot afford children, but because we do not like
children”
Germaine Greer
That’s what I’ve been saying.
mammywatta: “The patterns of gratification are
simple, and seem to fall into two patterns, the Great Bitch and the Poison Maiden.”
Germaine Greer
I am THE GREAT BITCH
mammywatta: You look feminist because you’ve got women doing things. But they’re not doing anything for women. If they were to upset the priorities of the corporation, they wouldn’t be there.

sophfyfe: Got Germaine Greer removed from rotation at the local Cafe this morning after yesterday.
We need to use this as an opportunity to make clear the connections and implications of transphobic feminist thought.
ShylockCorbyn: FEMINISM: It is a plague which began in the early 60s when I was growing up. I fell victim as a teenager and learned then that all men were guilty by default. Not long after came the book "the Female Eunuch" by Germaine Greer. I discovered its members were mainly unattractive>>>

semihsklave1: the idea you saw hermione- the person who always consults her historical books and precedents`-in these bearded fellows who argue among themselves whether Germaine Greer is Really a feminist, is cute, if it wasn`t so retarded.
azaerapolo: This is the outcome of GenZ having grown into a culture of trigger warnings and safe spaces. They have become the most illiberal generation for decades. Some time ago John Carlin called this "The Eunuch Student", over the cancellation of Germaine Greer.
Ben_Ja_mon: I wonder how many women who said Germaine Greer is right have since shaved their legs?
GMurphyDonovan1: Refreshing to see real women like Germaine Greer speak up for real women.
mensrightsbunny: Another raving lunatic feminist who has zero idea about life. Men hate us so much they die, get abused & look after us. What an absolute disgrace of a woman Germaine Greer is. She cheated on her husband SEVEN times. Then he died. Enough said you old battle axe.
Rustmouth1: Germaine Greer's latest stance appears to be, some of us were born with our gonads on the inside and menstruate, and that is the sole arbiter of womanhood. Which has all the strength of something very simplistic.
Peebi: Germaine Greer is magnificent ❤️
DiannaOfPI: Quoting feminist Germaine Greer will get you suspended. Misogyny is on the rise.
SCH451: Where is Gloria Gresham, Germaine Greer or any of the other leading feminists? Deafening silence!

Simply_Kiiki: Just over 21 mins into the full video.
Krishnan Guru-Murthy is a good interviewer.
Perhaps Germaine Greer is making some good points but (contrary to what this clip might indicate) she articulates her thoughts quite poorly. It’s very easy to miss her points completely.
speakoutsister: We assume you WERE going to say Foucault Lucy? Did you know the 1977 petition he signed against the French age of consent was also signed by Simone de Beauvoir? Do you know about Germaine Greer's book the Beautiful Boy?
VOCcrime: Germaine Greer literally explaining why Transwomen are just doing “woman face” & why it is so demeaning to real women, and makes an absolute mockery of what it is to be a woman, and why putting on a dress, wig, eyelashes does not make you a woman.

"If we are to assess the best of her photojournalism it is to Cartier-Bresson that we must turn to find her soulmate."

OWL4TRUTH: Germaine Greer is amazing.
ColmanOfGuaire: When I saw that clip of Germaine Greer on C4 News rightly lamenting how older women are mocked in the culture, I thought of how the likes of Fr Denis Fahey condemned this characteristic of modern culture almost 100 years ago. Feminists didn't know who their real friends were.
LoisPerry26: Good Girl.. I'm no feminist, not in the traditional sense. Not at all infact.
But she's absolutely right..
Being a girl is about more than your adornments and makeup. It runs through your very self and your very soul.
Well done Germaine Greer x
lascapigliata8: We are called radical feminists (it’s what the RF in T3RF stands for) and we’ve been opposing gender ideology for decades - see Janice Raymond and Germaine Greer to mention just a few. You’re all welcome (and welcome aboard), I guess.

ddblake7: Great to see Germaine Greer trending & being widely rtd. So disappointed in some of the senior irish feminists who have drunk the 'be kind' kool aid & have abandoned their biting, critical faculties. All they have are slogans & whataboutery. Nothing radical about it.
sarahrutherfor2: Here’s the real deal - Germaine Greer telling it how it is…..
Barbarian_Brain: Since Germaine Greer is trending again, I must remind the world that she wrote this book.
Feminists seem totally fine with this.

And she nails it down.
Boom.
JONAFearlessFan: "Yet if a woman never lets herself go, how will she ever know how far she might have got? If she never takes off her high-heeled shoes, how will she ever know how far she could walk or how fast she could run?" Germaine Greer wrote in The Change.

MavisCruetsWand: “Femininity is a masquerade. That masquerade is what is being presented back to us as the real deal, with the hair extensions and false eyelashes. Why do you think that is real?”
Bloody love Germaine Greer.
