After all, does he think he'd have had the profile & over-exposure he's had throughout his life for his mediocre so-called talents if he had been a mere woman rather than an over-privileged public schoolboy?

There's a great book about this by @helenlewis I would recommend to him. amazon.co.uk/Difficult-Women…

People only ever change the world with love. Regardless of their gender.

Beautifully said Audrey

This will tread the usual path. A woman, perhaps JKR, or perhaps many women, will explain to Fry why he really doesn’t get it, and he will respond by moving on and never returning to the topic. He gets to do that because, of course, it doesn’t matter to him not one jot.

I have an autographed book by Germaine Greer - in which she wrote - “Be difficult, dangerous, exciting.” I’ve kept it to hand to my granddaughters.

Recently bought a Christmas Tree Deco at Hampton Court Palace in honour of Anne Boleyn, who was far from a well behaved woman. But I feel it also sums up women's current fight to simply be women, equal and unafraid.

And it is men like @stephenfry who are a barrier to women's progress.

You've tagged a parody account. The real Fry flounced off a while ago. Message is valid tho.

Damn right

Brilliantly said. What a pompous ass Stephen fry is.

I had never paid much attention to him before I heard him on some video/audio commemorating Christopher Hitchens soon after Hitchens' death.Can't remember exactly why I came away from it thinking that I had just listened to a misogynist.

Well said. Not that he has the slightest regard for any progress females have ever made. I don’t expect he’s given it a moments thought tbh. He really has reached peak pomposity today, quite the achievement for Lord Pompous of Pompous Hall.

Being nice - kind and inclusive - is what got us in this mess. Fry can toss right off.

Hear, hear. And here’s to difficult women!

According to men who H8 us females are sub-human species mocked, demeaned, demoralized, degraded as faux men appropriate, exploit our female identity. There's no measure for male abuse against us, it has no ceiling to break 💔 enabling 4bn females into substandard living

Fry is not a serious commentator. He just wants to be liked, that's it.

Defending men in dresses because he knows they are men in dresses. Keep up with those 1970s misogynist gay stereotypes, Stephen. Protect those patriarchal homophobes at all costs. Another vichy gay who needs 'cancelling'.

Think you might have tagged a parody account? It's hard to tell these days. Not sure he's on here?

Precisely Loud, disobedient, outspoken women are usually speaking up for women who are considered expendable, exploitable, extraneous, and downright dangerous to their entitlements & privileges to do whatever they want, to whomever they please, for their own indulgence. Women who show DISGRACEFUL behaviours such as these have been incarcerated in asylums & drugged, lobotomised, shock treated & abandoned. What a shame for them that this is no longer routine!

Does no-one remember his time whilst garnering success in the 80's/90's when he wasn't even "out". Only came out when the gay foot soldiers had paved out a safe path for him. White feather for him in the equality wars. @DreyfusJames @Jebadoo2

I just can’t like this tweet enough @AudreySuffolk It’s what I’m teaching my girls And why I’ve been promoted because I work with men who value women who aren’t “easy”

he should listen to Ricky

He's a pompous idiot.

Audrey, that is not Stephen Fry's account.

JKR is standing up for women’s rights against a small subset of men who want to keep their own rights intact and also cherry pick some of ours. The rights they choose to infringe seem to relate to women only spaces such as toilets and dressing rooms etc Not creepy at all 🫠

The last thing Fry wants is any change in the status quo. He is a member of a "gentlemen's" club called Pratts. He was delight to tell us that men who "transition" are still welcome to use all the facilities. But they won't admit any woman.

Now now. Sir Stephen is not going to find you very interesting talking like that

👏🏻 👏🏻

He also called her views "difficult" Newsflash Stephen, every morally correct view in history has been "difficult" for a large portion of the population.

Very true. Old farts like Small Fry are just that. Small fry.

Yes Audrey👌exactly!

He’s a busted flush of man.
