For everywhere else, it might take a bit longer to get distribution- check your Amazon for now, and if it's not there right now, it might get a listing closer to release. Thank you for your patience!

I like how people speak so confidently about what God wants, as of they heard him themselves yet can be so deaf when people tell them what they want
YOU MEAN THEY WEREN'T THERE?!!!! 😮 lol I hope you heard all the sarcasm in that 😂
"I distrust those people who know so well what God wants them to do, because I notice it always coincides with their own desires."~ Susan B. Anthony
Given that there is no God, they're hearing voices, and that's not a good thing.
As the story goes, it is better not to know so much than to know so many things that aren’t so.

“After all, Ginger Rogers did everything that Fred Astaire did. She just did it backwards and in high heels”. - Ann Richards
That seems an incredibly delicate replacement for what should have been an invitation for that fellow to go perform an anatomically improbably act on himself.
Translation: She was telling that dude to go fuck himself.
He could take half the play book from those cephalopods - that would make the act less improbable. Though more of a one-time activity and then never again...
It's depressing how much talent and expertise goes down the drain simply because of sex, colour of skin or beliefs held by society over what's supposedly acceptable💔
Laura Knight is fantastic. I love her painting called "In for Repairs" which shows a group of women mending a barrage balloon. She has several paintings in the excellent "Now You See Us" exhibition on at Tate Britain until October. Highly recommended.
Ty for that information x
People who want children and can raise them should be able to. Those who do not or cannot should not.
@@user-dh6bj2me5p that's rich coming from the person with a default username
@@user-dh6bj2me5p It is better to remain silent and be suspected of being a fool than speak up and remove all doubt - just for your future...
I'm doing my best not to have children.
@@user-dh6bj2me5pare you trying to suggest that people who can't have kids or don't want them should have them anyway? Because that's a really dumb take
@@thembill8246 It is a really dumb take... but if those who are incapable of raising children to be "useful members of society" stopped having children then the Children's Aid societies and the legal Courts that are set up around them would go out of business and all those people with their University degrees would be out of work. Where I am there are also connected gov't agencies who would also have no work.
Why would people who should never even have house plants be forced to have children? Why do we look down upon those who choose to have children? It is not easy.
Those who want children should be celebrated and supported. Those who do not want children should not be harassed. Too bad it seems to be the other way around. The population world wide is going to collapse without the need for wars or germs.
I've loved Laura Knight's paintings since I was a child, her circus paintings were my gateway drug, as it were.
I hope there will be an audiobook version narrated by you!
It’s amazing that in her Nuremberg painting you can tell who she painted despite the eye naturally being drawn to the back with the destruction.
Thank you for educating us! I love that period in history, and learning how they lived. ❤
Fair play to Jenny, there is absolutely no way I could have finished the sentence "So if you would give up the work of Laura Knight and Daphne Pearson and Ruby Loftus because you'd rather they be having kids..." without using an expletive.
I have found that it is often opportunity and not ability that divides the sexes.Looking forward to reading your book. Hoping for a bit about James Barry and maybe Aphra Bahn
Women should have options and choose what makes them content. No woman needs to be told by male politicians what they should be doing. End of story.
I would love an audiobook version with J.Draper reading it. I don't have much time to read, but I watch (mostly just listen to) videos while driving. Thus, an audiobook version of Mavericks would be amazing. I'd pay extra for it!
Ordered the book:)and tks for reminding us of the bravery and talent of this lady. I would think God would want us to fulfill our full potential. Organised Religion has the straight- jackets. Its easy to forget what women have gone through to gain independence and the ability to follow their talents and succeed. Wish i lived in uk, would certainly be on your tours , you have a wealth of historical factual knowledge.
Oo oo, she was from my hometown Long Eaton! One of the few people we have. She enrolled in Nottingham art college at 13 and actually took on her mother’s classes when she was unable to
She really is a Long Eaton icon
They've even written her name in the pavement outside big Tescos 😂
Sounds like there will be enough for a Part 2 book :D
Laura Knight's "Self Portrait" (sometimes "Self Portrait with Nude", or "The Model") is an extraordinary picture, controversial in its time, and still with an air of challenge about it, as well as being beautiful. It's in the National Portrait Gallery.
I know it's going to be a better day when I wake up to a new Draper video!
Everyone men and women was involved in the war effort. They all had vital jobs to do and just got on with it. What they went through was just incredible. I don’t think our generation appreciate what the war generation went through. To me they are heroes. In their youth, they saved the world .
But what are you fighting for? You fight because you want your kids to live in a better world. Without a next generation why would you sacrifice yourself.
@@ducthman4737 for your friends, sibblings, nephews, nieces, the admirably good kids of that obnoxious neighbour down the street etc.
@@SonsOfLorgar
So they can have kids who can live in a better future. Society is about having babies. Without babies society disintegrates as we see today.
I think it would be fun if you did an audible copy of your book. The topics that you cover are very interesting, but you are what brings me back. Your enthusiasm is priceless!
One of my aunts who had been sewing shirts was a machinist during WWII, she loved the job and apparently she was good at it.
An amazing woman has stepped up to the table to save America from the clutches of one who would change it for the worse.
Women enrich our world in a myriad ways and can enrich their children, male and female, to make this a better world for all.
As for 'god'; a mythical being ... We are all people, capable of wonderful things....
Fantastic history fact, also love the bowtie!
"I have a world view, your not playing to it. What's wrong with you?"
Ms Draper is a class act.
I would love Mavericks as an audiobook if possible 👀
I second this!
Excellent. Another addition to Bad Squiddo's range of fantastic woman miniatures.
I can't believe how un-famous great female artists are! I had never heard of Laura Knight, and my Grandmother was an art historian!
Dude doesn't know that one of Hollywoods starlets invented the stuff that allows us to have car remotes and such, does he
Whom are you referring to as Dude, and he?
Are you bringing up Hedy? JD is well aware of her, as are most of the people who watch her stuff.
You thinking you have personally discovered something few know about, says much more about your personal knowledge.
Are you going to announce next week, that you have discovered the orange?
Still, it is good that you are trying to improve your knowledge
@@georgielancaster1356 they are refering to the christian taliban dude calling in to the show before Jenny takes an oxy-acetylene torch to his brainwashed delusions of propriety.
@@georgielancaster1356 The idiot at the start of the video saying "God put women on this earth to have children and look after them" Pay attention George! JD Draper knows who Hedy Lamar is, but JD Vance and the person quoted at the start of the vid probably don't. They don't watch those old movies
@@georgielancaster1356 Also, if you plan to insult someone for sharing something, please make sure YOU know what you are speaking of. I could have also used Ada Lovelace instead of Hedy, to make the point. The fact that YOU seem to have missed much of Miss Drapers video speaks more of you than it does of me.
As for something I have discovered, that few seem to know about, that is an entirely different subject, and one you'd be surprised to find out actually exists.
I remark often to friends that it would be interesting to note where society would be if that society had and didn’t shun more than half the population.
Love this story; thanks for sharing it. I am happy to say your book is pre-ordered; can't wait!
I'm so looking forward to the arrival of your book! Remember when you were a kid, looking forward to Christmas, and it was So Far Away? The book comes out 6 weeks after that!!!
I hope you will include those women in your second book. I'd never heard of them, and little kids need to learn about such amazing women.
Amen! Love your videos.
Can’t wait to find it in bookshops!
Great work as always. I have this big fat book called The 20th Century, I think it was published 1970-ish. It is a history of the twentieth century up until that point. It has that painting of Ruby Loftus in a chapter on life at the home front during WWII. Great book and painting. I didn't know anything of the background of it until...now.
And yeah, the whole women staying home and making babies thing is just, wrong and horribly out of date.
What is more complicated and sacrificing than being a mother? Working in a dirty factory.
❤️❤️❤️❤️ GO GIRLS!!! Love this!!
Bravo on the new book.
Thanks for the reminder, Jenny. Pre-Ordered.
I love this channel so much. Thank you
Book looks fantastic... pre-ordered and waiting. 😁
Ok I do want to read this book
I don't wanna wait til February
thanks Jenny. your content is awesome
I’ve pre-ordered and I can’t wait 😊
You rock Jenny!
Thank you
Begging the question, _Why_ did her story get cut?
Thanks again, English Lady
My two cents' worth: Employers should arrange jobs so that employees, male and female, can be good parents.
also, iirc, wasn't the person that invented computers or computer programming/coding a woman as well? imagine today without computers, it would be totally different!
Ada Lovelace?
@@kkobayashi1 yeah! that's who i was thinking of
Thanks!
I would love a long video on Laura Knjght
Congratulations for your book! I have hard time reading due to impared vision. Absolutely love your videos, maybe some tgey there will be an audiobook?
Love it!
Pre-ordered your new book - DONE!
Already pre ordered mine J x x
Awesome! Will there be an audio version?
Cpl. Pearson could be your twin
I mean just from ww2 alone that guy would also being doing with Beatrice Shilling and Hedy Lamar.
And princess Elizabeth who might just have run him over with her lorry on the way to deliver shells that other women turned and filled to those AA guns yet more women built and spotted for!
In my religion women and men could do just about anything hell some of the goddesses are rulers. So I'm glad we're correcting an idiot saying idiotic things. Also congrats on completing your book
Clearly, there should be a book 2.
Preorder done JD.
Never could stand anyone who thinks mentioning God as justification for narrow-minded bigotry is a mic drop moment.
The book is not on German amazon, yet. How I hope I'll be able to get a copy!!!
She was also a time traveller who painted a picture of you 🤯
Sounds like you will have to do a second book :)
She may have been cut from the book, but Laura could go in the sequel (hint, hint)
Happy days Jenny, love all of your content, thanks for sharing
Now go pick the kids up, and get back in the Kitc..... oh wait 😂 god told me to do it😅😂😂😂
The idea of women being subjugated to the kitchen and being just mothers is ridiculous! They can be anything they want to be!
Congratulations! Will you be doing any signings in London?
Are we sure the guy who made that comment wasn’t JD Vance?
Those men who are talking about how a woman should raise kids somehow turn out to be distant, cold fathers. I wonder why ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I would love to hear the book read by you. Will there be an audiobook version?
Pretty sure many of the amazing women of the second world war performed incredible acts of bravery and service to their country AND had children. It should never have to be either or.
Looking forward. any plans to release a paper back?
Is this book going to be available in physical form in Australia at some point? Thanks
will there be a paperback? im gonna buy it either way J you got me real fucked up, even with watkins publisher, but itd be nice to save a few pounds
Do you know if it’ll be distributed in the US?
Yes! You can order from Barnes & Noble, or your favourite local bookshop.
Will you be narrating an audiobook version?
👍👍👍
Hi Jenny! I love your work...any thoughts about making it possible to get a signed copy of the book?
Ah, I see that attitude is not confined to the USA these days... (Kidding, I was quite aware.) Sadly one of our major candidates for Vice President is weirdly interested in correlating a person's worth with how many children they have.
Any chance of an audiobook? 😊
Thank you for taking off the ai art thumbnail
Audiobook please!
Audiobook?
It is unbelievable that in 2024 there are people(if we consider right wing politicians as such) saying such load of 💩.
As for those who listen to them and applaud, i dont know anymore. I am 65, and even 50 years ago people had given up on these racist ideas.
What is happening?
Why does human society walk backwards?
🖌
I hope it’s not inappropriate to say that I think you are beautiful and you have awesome red hair. You don’t wear makeup because you don’t need to. But that being said , I’m not here for your looks. I think you put out great videos on a wide variety of subjects. And I appreciate your commentary. Thankyou!

Why does the CIA always, all the time have it's presenters wear bow ties for CIA talking points?
'That bow tie is really a camera'.
@@notalcno9 I'm not joking when Tucker Carlson was doing doing CIA talking points he always wore a bow tie as well.
Because Jeffrey Epstine was a top CIA agent now they are trying to lay low with the gayz.
