Way too “impactful” thanks

Storyhouse part 2. To recap: Storyhouse Chester did a purported Weekend of Events Celebrating Women & Girls which included women on the stage berating women in the audience for not being on board with talking about men who playact women at an event celebrating women.

The chief berater on the stage, I’ve now learned, was Patsy Stevenson, the woman who bounced to fame by making the Sarah Everard vigil All About Her. Here she is again:

Listen to what she says. Those pesky women in the audience asking questions get trans people murdered. She actually said that. Someone applauded when she said that.

On the upside, there were roughly 40 people in the audience. The places seats 800.

Storyhouse’s promo for Patsy Stevenson’s talk:

Join us for an impactful afternoon with Patsy Stevenson, an award-winning Campaigner, Equal Rights Activist, public speaker, and writer. Patsy, named Harper’s Bazaar Woman of the Year, rose to prominence after her arrest at the Sarah Everard Vigil captured public attention. 

That is, she exploited Everard’s murder to “rise to prominence.”

Also: “impactful.” Get out. Go on, get out, right now.

In her keynote speech, Patsy will delve into the essence of activism, sharing personal anecdotes and the unexpected journey of her arrest photo going viral. She’ll address the issue of misogyny within the police force and explore community-driven solutions to reclaim our streets for safer walks home. Additionally, Patsy will unveil exciting news about her forthcoming book, set to be published in Spring 2024. 

In short, she’ll talk about herself.
