Germaine Greer doesn't get it: Semenya, trans-hate and feminism

I was in two minds whether or not to respond to this piece by Germaine Greer in today's Guardian.

Thankfully, I don't need to because other people already said it for me:

Penny Red

and

Laura Woodhouse @ The F-Word.

1 things wot people said:

Comments Moderation Policy

This blog is intended to be a place where I can develop my thoughts freely and get free and honest responses. Essentially, it is my safe space, and for that reason I have elected to maintain this blog as a moderated space. However, I am opposed in general to censorship and believe that usually the best way to kill a bad idea is with a better one, so very few comments will be rejected. Comments designed to cause offence for the sake of it (e.g. abusive or inflammatory remarks with no other content), or else those that I feel cross a boundary of human decency, are most likely to be rejected.
