Has the BFI gone completely mad ? Using a MAN to talk about the female experience of working in film. No intelligent, articulate actual WOMEN available then ?

Could I suggest the radical idea that BFI choose a women who works in the film industry as their key note speaker? Bergdorf is neither.

This constant prioritising of celebrity trans identified males over women is showing the open misogyny of institutions keen to uphold patriarchal systems that prioritise men over women. You aren’t even trying to hide it.

How can a man represent woman in the film industry? This person has no prior knowledge or experience and has not dedicated their life’s work in film like the many women who do.

Munroe Bergdorf is not a woman and in no way represents women in the film industry.

Bergdorf is a man acting as a woman and whilst I realize that the BFI applauds good acting let's not mistake it for reality under the influene of a powerful cult. Women will not thank you.

Nothing changes your sex and only sex counts. The first and most important way to honor women is to acknowledge that no male can ever be female.

Why use a male to celebrate women. It is beyond insulting.

Sort your e&d policies, BFI. It’s ‘sex’ not ‘gender’.

Disgraceful. What an ill thought out choice. Bergdorf is no role model for all those girls aspiring to be part of the film industry.

Year of the woman. 100year since the vote. A huge year for sexism against women in the film industry and as a result a man with no film experience is chosen to talk about feminism to women instead of a woman. Insulting and Orwellian.

We beseech you to examine your choice : a biological male is not a woman - even if he has breasts surgically implanted. Even if he grows his hair long. Even if he changes his name and performs with a feminine manner. Womanhood is not a performance. Women cannot be surgically created. ‘Woman’ is a biological reality. Please stop adding to the dilution of that reality. Stop erasing women!

Trans women do not have the same experiences as cisgendered women not only that she isn't even a film maker this is an absolute joke!
