My girlfriend got this book in a charity shop. I knew nothing about her, but when we got home, I casually picked up the book for a flick, and it looked really good. I then read it, and loved it. Brilliantly written, really fun, and I agree with everything in it. Its rare to find a book that ticks all those points. I would heartily recommend it to......everyone!
i wrked on the Bjork interview and actually edited the 'canned' laughter and thought i did it really well.....seamless and believable. Bring back 'canned' laughter i think it makes the programme funnier..i reckon.
Interesting to read the comments.I was at that Book Festival event, and it's not canned laughter, some of it is me, laughing. I don't know how one can tell if someone is on coke..hadn't occurred to me ..maybe she was a little bit nervous talking in front of a live audience.She seems to scratch her head/mess with her hair a lot, which I read as reassuring herself..I loved the book, very funny and positive.
coke, ok maybe but the thought is the same, she is proposing a new feminism, maybe her associates take coke..this is London literati society we are viewing inc CM, so what..she's amazing.
she is a very captivating and interesting person, but i think she is wrong in her attitude and comments over the race debate she found herself in. her "girl next door" feminism is a good thing potentially, but she is also enmeshing herself in the deeper and more academic side of things, by representing a kind of everywoman, whilst also being held up as an intellectual by virtue of her inclusion in the literary press. While admittedly she is not everywoman. using words like retards, disavowing herself from larger contextual issues, and crossing over by accident into the purview of racial commentary in response to criticism, are things that hold her own neighbourly brand of feminist consciousness under the harshest light and shows the gaps in the logic.

Well ,at least she's honest in admitting she's just using the guise of feminism to actually just tell people what to do and how to live their lives.
"I love you to bits, but you look weird." Hilarious!
shes talking about Kate spicer

She is quite amazing
She is amazing
@MARSBELLA1 I've seen many people on coke. I don't think she's on coke. She's just a bit nervous. I act the same when I'm nervous.
I love this woman
This is the first time I've heard.
I wonder what she thinks about someone like Dita Von Teese.
She sounds very much like Victoria Wood.

I bet you any money it's Ruby Wax...

*Sigh*
Petition to rename Caitlin Moran to Dorothy PORKER.
"How To Be A Woman" should be compulsory reading in secondary schools.
British people say "Bottox"??
Caitlin is cool but me are pressured to look good too and they are judged by women if they put on weight etc
Interesting how she can't say 'vagina' without nervously laughing. Her audience react the same. Smug.
Must say though, she is a very attractive woman now she's lost some weight...: (
She's lost her accent! :(
