This male, patriarchal society should not make rules about how much
of their body women have to cover or to lay bare to the male public.


None of the women I know best seem to believe that they live in a
male patriarchal society, other than when they are joking. Although
they presumably feel some cultural pressures, they largely seem to
wear what they want to.

Last week I was told that an organisation I am involved in might
have "gender issues", after I suggested that people often bonded
best in pubs rather than on "team building exercises". I didn't tell
the person that we do indeed have gender issues, the main gender
issue being that I am one of the few token males. Neither did I tell
her that the idea of bonding in a pub comes from several of the
women, one of whom had told me of the research about pubs.

No **** Sherlock. It may have escaped your attention that it is not
Jewish grandmothers or Catholic nuns who are attacking the citizens of
the UK.

No, it is usually young male UK citizens with pale skins and
home-grown ancestry.

Well Enoch Powell did foresee "rivers of blood" if we let in all these

But of course he was said to be an idiot.
Its a shame he didnt live to see his prophesy come true.


Which is the quote that is always trotted out along with the 'Enoch
was right' line - of course the last 40 years have proved him
completely wrong -

Im sitting here in an outer suburb of a fine northern city, many of my
neghbours have different pigmentation to me, yet the streets are not
rivers running with blood, but usually running with children playing
football and neighbours bringing in each others wheely bins. They are
nice likeable children, and good decent neighbours.

And of course for almost all of us that is the experience of
immigration, that different skin colours dont automatically lead to
conflict ( and again showing that Enoch was wrong) and that is why the
right wing racists have changed their strategy and started saying that
islam is the issue not race.


Its pretty clear the two women in the original post have more to fear
from the mindset of the OP than he has to fear from them.

No - the ****ed up hen party *in* Newcastle city centre on a Friday or
Saturday night is intimidating.


Four middle aged ladies returning to Doncaster after a day's shopping in
London. *That* was intimidating.

Can't be worse than a bunch of slightly tipsy northern matrons returning from
a day out in Lille on the E*.

"Oh aye Joan, and said ta tha waaaytah, eh Pierre , you got a long baguette

A journey I won't forget in a hurry.

Gerroff! Are you a man or a mouse?? I cadged a lift to the Warley Show
at the NEC on a bus that was taking a party of middle-aged (and older)
females, inluding The Wife, to another exhibition. "Don't worry, mate"
said the driver when I got on "we've got 'em outnumbered - mentally!"

Now *that's* the attitude to adopt!

Indeed, the alien threat to the values of our society is that of the
Nazi BNP and EDL (and the waiverers in UKIP).

Wtf has UKIP got to do with it? Are those of us who'd like to give Brussels
2 fingers all racist now as well as far as you lefties are concerned?

You'll be seeing racists under your bed soon. Better check behind the door
and in dark corners too just in case they jump out at you!

This remark was superfluous. Just make sure you can manage
to find Khrisong. Oh, yes, and the missing episodes. Yes.

He took his meals and passed his time at the end of the hill.
