When one judge attempted to stop the heckling she was called a ‘frigid b***h’.
‘Sexist comments were made about our appearance.’
Ummm, that bit about frigidity; that's not a reference to appearance and it can't be solved with a dab of make-up or a sexy black dress; I would have hoped that university students would know that.
And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014
But if the women were putting forward some contentious argument, whether a fluffy one about needing to donate more to people in poor countries or the opposite, like arguing that the NHS should be abolished or that student loans were a Good Thing, then maybe the hecklers were simply expressing hostility to that. But poor form even so, for people who are supposed to be educated.
What's that got to do with it?
If you educate an idiot what do you get?
