Wonderful interview. Just shared with my Australian friends and family. They have no idea what is happening in their own country because the ABC and many other media outlets whitewash the whole story and stifle discussion and debate as Julie Szego has said. Deeply disturbing.

I agree its a great interview. I live in Brisbane and participate in feminist efforts to raise awareness of what is happening and protest changes such as gender self ID which has just passed into law in Queensland - in spite of our submissions and provision of evidence. Having only ever watched the ABC I had to turn to Sky News to hear any news and critique of gender ideology. Now I also receive information from numerous Australian feminist FB sites and UK podcasts and books and substacks. When we tell people what’s happening they are shocked and can’t believe it’s real at first. Thank you for sending this to your family over here. It all helps.

"Journalism is supposed to be about truth telling on the mainstream media a platform for a myriad of ideas, opinions and debates. " Hilarious, coming from a feminist 'journalist' like yourself. For feminist journalists, the creation and dissemination of baseless conspiracy theories (e.g. the patriarchy), fantasies, lies (e.g. about domestic violence), delusions and myths has been a money-spinner for DECADES. It's rich that feminists now complain about being 'cancelled' when they've been the ones doing the cancelling for so long. Elizabeth Hobson https://j4mb.org.uk/elizabeth-hobson-2-2/ and I experienced this first-hand at Cambridge University when we went there in 2019 to deliver a couple of talks.

Can't be bothered to get into your deranged views on whether patriarchy exists, but you should be aware that feminists and feminism are not monolithic (unfortunately), so unless it was Julie Bindel who threw a milkshake at you why are you bringing it up on her Substack? Why are you even here?! I do hope you got your dry cleaning done though. Super important issue in the grand scheme of things.

Hi Lucy. The only deranged views on patriarchy are those held by feminists. If we lived in a patriarchy Julie Bindel and other radical feminists would not be earning livings from the mainstream media, while anti-feminists would be. There would be no Gender Studies departments,. no Minister for Women & Equalities, no Harriet Harman or Jess Phillips... all in all, a more functional society.

My point, lest you couldn't grasp it, was about feminists' hypocrisy. It was about feminist 'academics' and students and alumni doing all in their power to no-platform anti-feminists, as they so often have. They sought to have Elizabeth's and my talk cancelled, and came up with a pile of lies and BS in their efforts to achieve that end, and blockaded the lecture building while chanting "There are many, many, more of us than you" outside the lecture room where we delivered our talks.

I didn't raise the milkshaking issue in my earlier comments. What on earth does it matter, whether or not Julie Bindel threw a milkshake? I'd say the milkshaking was the least important issue that day. But since you raised it, herewith the indomitable Natty Raymond chasing after and filming the feminist culprit who threw it. The feminist went from fierce SJW to damsel in distress in a heartbeat, predictably. It's comedy gold and on our comedy channel. Link to the video (4:32) here:

You included a link to the milkshake occurrence, Mike. You brought it up, but you're quite right - it doesn't matter! No one cares, and that's why I questioned you posting here. You may be laughing at feminists but you don't seem to be able to fathom that your opinion is irrelevant. You are posting here because you obviously have time on your hands and possibly an unfulfilling life. You feel the need to be noticed by people you claim to hate which is perhaps something you should work on in private. Improve yourself, Mike, don't waste your time needlessly insulting others. I sincerely doubt you have successfully debated many feminists, as you've claimed elsewhere, but rest assured you have provided me with a good laugh too! Judging by your increasingly petulant comments, you're just another sad old man infiltrating feminist spaces where you are not wanted.

Thanks Lucy. I feel it my duty to bring knowledge to the ignorant, light into the darkness, so to speak. I did so with the 'Lying Feminist of the Month' awards, presented to such luminaries as Caroline Criado Perez (three times winner), Laura 'Special Snowflake' Bates (two times winner), Harriet Harman MP, Gloria de Piero MP, Paula Sherriff MP, Sandy Toxic, Kate Smurfwit... and so many others:

Julie Bindel was among the winners of our 'Toxic Feminists of the Month' awards:

Whether you wish to engage with the knowledge I present is up to you. By all means carry on cherishing your bitter men-hating narratives.

Hi Rebecca. Triple threat? You're quite the Special Snowflake, aren't you? A title we usually reserve for the woman-child Laura Bates of The Everyday Whining Project.

Very proud to be an anti-feminist, given how utterly destructive feminism is, and has always been. You might care to check out the 39 videos on feminism by the peerless Professor Janice Fiamengo on this matter, starting with 'Why I am Still an Anti-Feminist':

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLGFFi6pRCnCdQTe1iG3Tw4Td9jvhY2w74

Do enlighten me as to how I'm patriarchal and misogynistic. In 2020 I handed over the leadership of Justice for Men & Boys http://j4mb.org.uk (at the time, and until recently, a political party) to Elizabeth Hobson https://j4mb.org.uk/elizabeth-hobson-2-2/. Was that the action of a patriarch and misogynist? Likewise having Janice Fiamengo as the keynote speaker at the 2014 International Conference on Men's Issues in Budapest.

Have a nice evening.

Thanks Rebecca. Trust me, you'll look VERY silly if you argue with me, so I understand your reluctance. I've had discussions with many feminists, including prominent ones (but not Ms Bindel... yet) on TV and radio over the past 10+ years. In every case the feminists came across as what they all are, ridiculous and driven by visceral misandry. The discussions are all on our YouTube channel:

Take care.

Thank you so much for this Julie Bindel! I never heard of the wonderful Julie Szego before!

Dear Julie Szego, if you are reading this: I am a Hungarian feminist with jewish heritage who lived most of her life in Budapest, then London, and now in Syney. Thank you so much for everything you do and stand for!

To wonderful Julies in one podcast indeed!
