Half way through, and I have to say that listening to Germaine speak is as asphyxiating as it is a breath of "fresh air". Truths are hard to swallow, albeit, as they come out off her mouth...a bit contradictory and perplexing...some of what she said her is truth...though dishonest. My view, these "victories" are only such that because multiple victims were made because each one previous remained silent, took the money or decided to speak because funds dried out. I believe the women, it just frustrates when women don't speak. It enables the rapist to continue abhorrent behavior. Almost to the point where even I find myself tossing up my hands in disgust not just at the alleged perp., but the alleged victim.

He hates her? 🙄 Get outta your feelings. She’s a critic taking the MeToo movement apart like an analytical person does. He’s an analytical host taking her argument apart. The opposition should do it but Mehdis job is to challenge the position

He should really let her finish. I don’t agree with everything she says, specifically when she downplays how damaging rape/assault can be on a person, but if he lets her speak, some stuff she says really makes sense. Me too is not really helping but for celebrities it seems and companies who want to advertise they support the “trend”. Otherwise, many men who are the source of the problem, still can’t have the conversation.

Well she definitely does not shy away from controversy and serves as a good reminder that freedom of speech can be very frustrating to hear at times. But even still I think it is always good to have someone like her shake things up so that these feminists don't assume that their narrative is the only valid one especially since it is coming from an "icon" like her.

The irony: it's a discussion about empowering women to defeat oppressive male hegemony and not a single woman in the room had the courage to call out the male interviewer's aggressive and condescending manner in the way he spoke to Germaine Greer. He was allowed to arrogantly dominate the discussion, without a single voice of dissent! This alone shows the hypocrisy at work; if only I could have heard more of Ms Greer's insights, had she not been so rudely interrupted by Mehdi Hasan on multiple occasions.

I don't agree with everything Germaine Greer said, in fact, I disagree with most of it. But then again, notice the stark difference between the host and her in terms of being open to listening to the opinions of others. While the host wouldn't even let her finish her sentences and finish making the points she headed towards (especially in Part 1), she listened with full attention to the women on the panel who made their arguments against her and let them actually finish. Even if you disagree with your guest, what in the world is the point of inviting them and simply calling them "legendary" a couple of times if you're so determined to not listen to them and keep your mind at least remotely open to both sides of the argument?

I love Germaine. She never plays victim card. She is strong . I am proud of having her as my role model.

While I understand Germaine's fans' frustration, I truly admire her honesty and courage to still speak up her mind and not just go with the flow as most people do these days. As she put it, "we live in the time of slogans". By not wanting to be an icon or running after keeping her big fan base, pleased, she sets her own self free.

And Germaine, in 2020, is correct. Me too was a classist movement that got some celebrities locked up. But for the everyday woman or the women in developing and 3rd world countries, it did nothing! Germaine was positioned in an adversarial environment with a hostile audience who weren't out to hear a different point of view, but rather, to attack her for not joining the 'mob'. Also, Hasan, you are an inappropriate host for this forum because as the typical male as you are, you kept overspeaking your guest and not allowing her the time to fully answer the questions. For example, I strongly suggest viewers to look up why Germain has no position on female genitial mutilation. Her perspective is something that western feminism tends to discredit. Me too resulted in a backlash again women's rights and a small victory for rich white women. WAKE UP!

06:36 "It's only been 6 months".... It's 2020 now and it still hasn't changed much. Because it's the WRONG WAY. Millions of women claiming(!!) to have been harassed doesn't change ANYTHING, it just belittles the pain of women who actually suffered SEVERE cases of rape, abuse and assault. it does NOT change anything about patriarchy to point your finger at men. They will just be even more defensive. End of story.

The whole idea that women needed an awareness campaign to recognize if they are rape victims is inherently flawed.

I'm astonished how come the majority so called "smart people" simply stay at the very shallow surface,and not sencerly focus on the essence of a complicated long existed problem,seriously I'm so shocked!!!The host is dreadful disaster,who's over proud of showing off yeh he can speak English,and very very fast.And amazing how Germain patient with these people is,love Germain💖.

This host is approaching this as this as a prosecuting attorney and Greer is on trial. He doesn't appear to be interested in actually understanding what Greer's perspectives are.

What an awful interviewer. He wasn't interested in having a conversation, he wanted to shame a woman who regardless of how you feel about her, has devoted her professional life to highlighting feminist issues. I don't understand all this anger towards her. I don't understand why this interviewer thought it was appropriate to interrogate, bate and scoff at everything she said. I am interested in seeing how the MeToo narrative develops, I didn't get to see that. There were instances where she was being thoughtful and taking her time to answer difficult questions. The interviewer seemed to take great pride in pouncing on her while she worked her way through an issue. She intellectually outclassed him and he responded by throwing loaded, damning, reductive questions, which made him look desperate. Also, all those Cheshire cat grins came across mean spirited, unprofessional and creepy.

11:20 AGAIN, SHE'S NOT THERE TO GIVE SOLUTIONS. Also, let her speak. Just because you don't have another solution, doesn't mean you can't say that something is obvious bullshit. Not having another solution yet wouldn't make MeToo more effective. (There would be TONS of better solutions, but just as Germaine said, people wouldn't do what is required for those solutions, so it's a waste of time to even talk about them. Women would rather prefer pointing their fingers at others all of a sudden.) Also, it's incredible how this moderator disrupts Germaine constantly and his obvious lack of respect towards her opinion.

Mehdi is really bad at this. Doesnt even let her speak.

This is terribly moderated. He asks a question and then doesn't allow a full answer. He is being abusive to these women to discredit them as usual. How can I judge their answer if I don't hear it. I want to hear the complete answer.

Germain is a real feminist

This was not a debate about me2, but a prosecution of Germain Greer. Aside from the obviously egregious transgression against her very person, ranging from ridicule to outright hostility, it shuts down diversity of opinion necessary for navigating difficult topics regarding human interaction between the sexes. Where nuance was required we instead got pat phrases and feminist slogans. Worst of all was the idiotically bombastic host who wasn't going to allow for intelligent discourse of any sort. It showed once again, how truly courageous voices like those of Greer are constantly drowned out by the cowardly mob of anonymous me2 self-labeled survivors and ideologues. What a waste of time and opportunity of such a wonderful forum as the Oxford Union.
