It isn't unusual to find myself shouting at the radio or TV, but it is usually when some opinionated politician exceeds even my tolerance level but I don't hink I have ever shouted at Woman's Hour before. The occasion was an item about the possible new vaccination against some types of cervical cancer and the idiot on the receiving end was Christina Odone. Listen here as she argues that prepubescent girls should not be given the vaccine because it would encourage them to have sex without fear of the cpnsequences. I thought Professor Margaret Stanley, the other speaker demonstrated remarkable levels of self control.
Odone's egregious twaddle reached new depths I think even for Catholic theologians, comparable only to the way on which the Catholic Church has been spreading nonsense about AIDs in Africa.
