Is having a woman's face on bank notes objectionable?

[Heraclius]

Who cares who or what is on a bank note as long as it's worth as much as it says it is?

Gosh. The queen of England has her face on many bills. What's wrong with that?

We have a woman in the watermark of the €5 note...

Will the Coop expect you cover the banknote with a modesty cover???

Ohhh, the question, errrrm, NO.

Not at all. What is objectionable is the fact that the whining feminists, who clearly have nothing better to do, made such a massive deal about this banknote issue. How is this the addition of a storyteller going to make the slightest bit of difference to anyone's lives? The addition of Jane Austen does nothing save nourish the bloated egos of a few man-haters (interesting how so many of them write for the Daily Mail). Will it create more jobs? Rejuvenate our economy? Resolve the NHS crisis? I think we all know the answers to these questions.

Receiving death threats, whether online or otherwise, is extremely unpleasant and such threats should be taken seriously if they are persistent (as these were). However, this does not make the feminists right. Bear in mind that these are these are the same unhinged individuals who were openly disgusted that the royal baby turned out to be a BOY. Can you imagine the reaction if I had complained had it been a girl? The howls of outrage and, indeed, threats?

Remove the trolls from this equation and you are left with some nasty little hypocrites who, behind the self-righteous indignation, would dearly love to witness the eradication of masculinity from the human race. They do not want justice: they want revenge.
