    Not the worst in the world, is she? My perception of her used to be based on what I'd read about her here. There was a thread with most of the posters calling her a sap for about 90 pages, but I listened to her on a podcast and she's just a normal girl really, a normal girl with anxiety about what people think of her and insecurities about her work.

    She's far more relatable than I first thought. The way people slag her off on this I thought she was like a sort of Katie Hopkins type, but she seemed very pleasant, funny and down to earth.

    I don't know a great deal about her work or her politics, but as a personality I found her quite endearing. You can't really doubt her success either. Good on her I say.

    That's all really.

    It was hilarious when she went head-to-head with Jordan Peterson and tried to make an argument based on feminist mumbo jumbo.

    ‘You attribute the rates of mental illness amongst young men to their inability to express their sentimental emotions. I don’t think that there is a shred of clinical evidence for that.’

    Now if only he'd go on Blindboy's podcast and school him on that drivel he spouts about young men needing feminism.
