| 201 | Stephanie Butterfield | I am a feminist myself, but not a lesbian, however as a transwoman I feel Stonewall have slapped the face of all transsexual people by short listing the Bindel woman, who has consistantly wrote anti transsexual articles.
I call on Stonewall to open the eyes and see this woman for what she is, and remove her from the shortlist. |
| 202 | Anonymous | This woman is obviously bigoted and prejudiced. She should not be allowed to have recognition for such disgusting views that damage the nationwide view of trans people. Her opinions are generalized, hurtful and downright rude. If her comments were applied to any other minority group she would be made to be accountable for her actions and made an outcast. |

| 207 | Anonymous | Ms Bindel comes from an antiquated school of radical Feminist thinking, and whilst some of her other work is to be applauded, her constant ignorance and mis-information that she spreads about transpeople is very damaging to both transpeople themselves, but also Feminism. This is in despite of having met transpeople of all diverse backgrounds and identities that have proved her ill-thought ideas should be condemned along with Greer, Raymond and Jeffreys.
She certainly does not speak for all Feminists like myself, and her very ideas are just as oppressive as what Feminism hopes to fight against in wider society.
In relation to Stonewall, well, I have no problems in principal that they are a primarily gay and lesbian foundation, and not a trans-focused one, however, at times they have been found rather clueless in such issues, and this is the latest example. |
| 208 | Nikki | Julie Bindel takes cheap shots at transgender stereotypes in a manner no different from straight journalists did at gays and lesbians before Stonewall. |

| 212 | Nazmia Jamal | |
| 213 | Julie Sewell | This is totally deplorable, especially as i have only just joined the trans community, it makes me feel even more threatened and in an ever increasing list / combination of minorities
This is supposed to be the 21st century not the dark ages ! |

| 228 | Felix Garnet-Simister | I am tired of Stonewall trotting out "GLBT" whenever it wants money. The "B" is consistently ignored, in my experience and the "T" tagged on with no regard for its meaning. Transpeople were the instigators of the original Stonewall activism and for an organization to adopt its name while actively supporting transphobia is doubly appalling. |
| 229 | Emily Dodge | Yet another third rate journalist with serious personal issues. She shows no understanding or compasion for those suffering from this dreadfull condition. No of us wants this and would rather be all male or all female. Her comments are hurtfull in the extreme. There is no way that she is deserving of any award bearing in mind her transphobic opinions.
Regards

| 230 | Lucie Evans | Shame on you Stonewall.
What deep-dyed hypocrites you are. |
| 231 | sahhara ella | im appalled by this comment.
in this day in age? sad! |
| 232 | kay meddings | Valuable though other work that Julie Bindel has done in the past, her complete lack of knowledge and understanding of gender dysphoria, transexualism, and trans issues.,allied to her offensive and outspoken remarks on the field, make her a gobsmacking nomination for journalist of the year. |
| 233 | Denise michelle mosse | This woman should in no way be recognised
by a nomination , let alone actually receiving an
award. Her views are downright insulting. |
| 234 | Anonymous | This award to Ms Bindel goes against EVERYTHING Stonewall stands for, i.e equality and diversity, Ms Bindel has at any given opportunity written negative and harmful comments and provde that she has no understand of the situation suffering or medical research on the TS condition. |
| 235 | Anonymous | Ms Bindel is entitled to express her views, but Stonewall should not be endorsing any form of transphobia. Transition and surgery are the only proven ways to successfully treat gender dysphoria - aversion therapy works no better on trans people than on gay people. |

| 237 | Krissie Pearse | Is a comment really nessecary? |
| 238 | Nicole | |
| 239 | Vanessa | This is despicable. That an organization who has fought for civil rights would endorse someone with clear disdain for the human dignity of those in the transgender community is disgusting.
We should be embracing love, tolerance and trying to further civil rights. Not rewarding hate and lauding discrimination. |
| 240 | Frank Wright | |
| 241 | Rose Marie Webster | What can you say? this is just so wrong and its blatantly obvious why |
| 242 | Dru Marland |
| 243 | Pia Arber | |
| 244 | Jaye Bloomfield | |
| 245 | Belinda Wood | This sort of action promoted by a well know charity group, who are totally media savvy is trying to undo all the good work that we in the transgender community is doing,
to increase public acceptance of our community.
This could set us back years if it gets the great publicity in the tabloids.
Shame on you Stonewall !!!! |

| 247 | Anonymous | Nominating members of Stonewall, you should hang your heads in shame. This woman is a bigot and you of all people should fight ALL bigotry, wherever you find it. |
| 248 | Alina Wicks | |
| 249 | Gina Morvay | Julie Bindel being honored by an GLB organization that claims to support trans people is so misguided and wrong. Bindel is a believer in cisgender superiority and a bigot. There are plenty of literate queer women and lesbians who actually understand and have compassion and respect for the trans community. Why you felt the need to legitimize the writings of this hater is beyond me.
Very disappointed in your organization! |
| 250 | janice smith | stonewall should not surport or give any one an award thats hatefull to any .Trans person. the Guardian should not let this lesbo cow use there paper to voice her own views in public, as she is a lesbian cow who is against trans people |
