Dawn French Has No Shame - Here's Why You Shouldn't Either

Perfection has taken on a life of its own in recent years. Dawn French worries that the pursuit of perfection is stopping us from being who we are, and from making mistakes we can grow from.
In this chat, Fearne and Dawn explore why when we have low tolerance for others making mistakes, we’re likely judging ourselves for our mistakes too. So, in order to have more self-compassion, we have to talk about the cringey times we’ve held inside for fear for being shamed.
They also discuss the best ways to apologise when we’re in the wrong, and to allow space for robust debate that might just change our minds. Plus, why it’s so important to be able to say “I don’t know”.
Dawn’s book, The Twat Files, is out now.

[@vickyjones9253]

I really loved this conversation - a meeting of the minds of 2 inspiring, warm and empathetic women. I really appreciated the discussion about the culture we now find ourselves in and resisting dominant narratives. I totally agree that we should be receptive to owning our mistakes, apologise - but I also think it's OK to not take on everyone's critique or correction of our behaviour as 'wrong' as fact. It's OK to appreciate the other person's perspective but kindly hold firm to our own. And agree to disagree

[@flowerpink724]

I've a feeling at lot of this is women being shut up about the trans issue and are afraid to talk about it.

I have listened to just the first 16 mins of this podcast for the very first time, and it is striking such a significant chord with the way I feel life and humans have become more divided, than more connected and open to others thoughts through listening and processing, than the single-minded, entitled viewpoints of having to be right. I applaud and champion this openness of conversation, and wish that there was more of it in the mainstream.

Oh Dawn, you don't need to 'catch up'. You know what you think, and you're not making mistakes but SAY IT!! Be direct, and claim that courage that otherwise makes you the coward you don't want to be. Unless all us women do, it's left to the few brave heroines like JKR, Kellie-Jay Keen, Helen Joyce.... Also, what mistake(s) did JK make?

[@lemonjelly625]

I agree, a lot of this with JK comes from brainwashing in schools and msm. A woman is a woman. No catching up required. Also, I agree with Dawn and Fearn - genuine grown up debate has all but disappeared. 😢

Shame is very healthy

[@moonsharn]

Being a younger person who would have been telling Dawn to catch up, you grow a bit older and learn more about the world and then start to realise that those people who seemed out dated in perspective actually have a wise reason for their mindset. Every generation wants to change everything, but not all change turns out to be what’s best.

You will get through whatever it is that is holding you back, and overcome it, bit by bit. ;-)

25:24 what mistakes has JK actually made? It would be nice to actually have a robust conversation instead of just endlessly talking about having robust conversations.

[@lavienestpasunlongfleuvetr2559]

Exactly. Dawn is really just sitting on the fence here, a bit like Graham Norton saying that Rowling's speech on gender identity ideology was 'problematic', without actually explaining why.

[@valbonney2575]

I think maybe the topic was too big to include in this video? The main discussion was about making mistakes, owning them, not being ashamed, apologising and forgiveness. The trans issue, although touched upon, would have taken over the whole thing I think, if they'd gone down that route?

[@murrumbidgeekid]

Should we though? I have no desire or need to 'discuss it'. More attention on the attention seekers.

[@feechi8719]

@@valbonney2575 You’re right it probably would have taken over slightly but that wouldn’t have been a bad thing in my view and would have been entirely relevant to their discussion. Dawn talks about the confusion at being told to simply: “catch up!” instead of having her mistakes explained to her so to then be vague about JK’s “mistakes” in a tone that implies we all just automatically know what they are just makes no sense in the context of the conversation they’re having.

The topic of forgiveness I found particularly interesting. Whilst I can acknowledge the power of forgiving someone something, there are times and instances where forgiveness is not possible, no matter how huge the returns would be. You can just choose to eliminate that person from you life and move on. The key to this is to leave any baggage relating to them, with them. I'm not lugging that around!

[@johnhunt8388]

This was such a thought provoking interview. I could have listened to you both for hours. I have got to the point now where I won't share thoughts and opinions on social media. I shared some thoughts preciously and was persecuted for want of a better word. How dare I say what I said. After that I gave up offering opinions. I wasn't being offensive or forcing my opinions on everyone else. I just said what I personally thought but the comments I received in reply made me distressed to the point I took my comments off social media. It seems to me you can't have an opinion of your own anymore. If you don't agree with the majority you are forced to keep your mouth shut and say nothing. I do feel like free speach has gone out of the window as well as the right to hold different opinions to every one else. Why can't we debate? Why can't people be accepted for having a different opinion to everyone else? If we were all the same life would be very dull. Your conversation really resonated because you expressed everything I feel. You do feel forced to have a certain opinion even if that isn't what you truly believe. Not only that like Dawn said you do feel like your thoughts, opinions, experiences etc. don't matter. It is a case of keep quiet and stand in the corner. I think this situation will only get worse and that is a very sad thing. If I as an adult feel constricted and restricted imagine how the younger generation feels. I feel it is safer to stay silent unless you want to risk confrontation and unpleasantness. Thank you for raising all these points.

[@carolinemacrae6227]

​@@ladeanbartlett2530Correctness is the opposite of political correctness. Things like changing a life drastically is not something to be shrugged off. Jk Rowling is completely right from what I've heard from her. She is speaking from the experience of a child who was sexually abused and with the result had body dismorphia. She knows this happens to autistic girls and they having been molested Political will not take that much grooming to jump onto the trans wagon. This is because she cares that she says it not because of hatred towards a genuine case of a wrong outside body for someone with a very different internal body. correctness is the enemy of democracy. Bearocracy caused children to go to school and lose their genius by aged ten.

[@Older_Mountain-goat_1984]

Disagree with the video title advice. I suffered from dibilitating shame for decades. All sorted a number of years ago. For me, the problem is not shame, but dysfunctonal shame. Healthy shame, is a built-in morals warning system, letting the person know they've done something wrong that violates one's moral code of conduct. Dysunctional shame is grossly disproportionate to the event, and feeds self-condemnation. I appreciate my beneficial shame system that I developed by healing the wounds and dysfunctions that causes dysfunctional shame.

[@MelarkyClarky]

I feel like a lone voice here, but as someone who believes in intersectional feminism, I feel so upset for trans women, & trans people in general.

JK Rowling has not paid a huge price. She is still exceptionally wealthy and she still has multiple platforms (including writing her own books) in which she can display her opinion. You aren't owed an audience. People are allowed to decide for themselves if they want to continue agreeing with you or they want to give you anymore attention, especially if they think your opinion is damaging to society in some way. If you still have a platform, you aren't being cancelled. The idea that people are being unfair to JK Rowling by stating their opinions about her opinion is just so entitled - the people complaining about 'cancel culture' are so entitled.

[@BubbleMix-96]

entitled? talk about projection..

[@JB-qf5ep]

@@BubbleMix-96 Projection? That doesn't make sense because I am not claiming that I am entitled to an audience's attention either, but people like Dawn French thinks I have to like JK Rowling until I die because I enjoyed reading Harry Potter as a child. How am I being entitled and they are not? Nobody is owed an audience, but the 'everyone is getting cancelled' crowd are pretending that some entertainers are entitled to your admiration and attention, because they are complaining about audiences changing their mind about their support. Bo Burnham had it right when he said 'If I stop entertaining you, throw me to the curb. I work in the service industry, I'm just overpaid'. He understands that audiences aren't wrong to divert their attention elsewhere for any reason. So what on earth are you talking about? Ah I get it. You just want to defend Rowling by saying anything, even if it doesn't make sense, because you like that she is transphobic. It is amazing that even with a comment that made very little sense, you managed to reveal what kind of person you are. Yikes.
