Hazarika belittles feminist women and pats herself on the back for being so brave and determined. Two for one: you get both sides of the Both Sides award.
Listening to an interesting new podcast. And I would just like to know – when in the history of recorded crime have a group of women bundled a young man into a car, stripped him to his boots and beaten him to death? https://t.co/uyedK5qaVL
So I am asking you, Tortoise, Fawcett Society etc etc etc who look at women’s rage and fear and see a ‘wee stooshie’ that you can infantilise and diminish – where does women’s fear and rage come from? And will it simply disappear along with the erasure of the word ‘sex’?
I have had to look up more Scots dialect in recent weeks from following this blog and these issues than I have ever needed to look up before. Thank you, internet.
I’d been thinking “stooshie” was Australian dialect because I first saw it via something Helen Dale said. But Helen of course has transplanted to Scotland, so her dialect is mixed.
Haha the chorus actually works! Ayesha don’t like it – Wheesht the stooshie
Substitute lyrics about the banning of western music with lyrics about the banning of discussions around women’s rights, and the song’s essence is pretty much the same.

Can one say “Wheesht the stooshie now”?
Sounds like the makings of a rock ‘n roll song. Could probably be sung to Rock the Casbah music. :D
