Paid Members Sergio Mendacious Posted February 2, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted February 2, 2017   It's a very odd situation to be in & I'm not sure where it's come from?A friend of mine was in the Trafford Centre in Manchester, she came out of the cubicle to wash her hands, and beside her was a guy wearing a wig & fixing his lipstick in the mirror. Clearly a dude - but in a dress, wig, handbag, make-up, and a stuffed bra. That's a cross dresser - but what can you say or do? She did or said nothing, but it was certainly a bit weird.And how was that clear in this split second interaction??Is your mate able to diagnose whether somebody is 'proper' trans or a cross dresser on sight alone? May be a news flash but *whispers* some of us tranny folk look a bit like blokes   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Carbomb Posted February 2, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted February 2, 2017 The argument that "LGBT has had a Q added on the end now" is bollocks, frankly. Again, the more militant lot would add any number of initials on the end if they could, but the regular four letters are enough for the vast majority of normal people. Â I take your point (like I said, the only evidence I could offer was anecdotal), but I'd question that the regular four letters are enough - surely there's an argument to include the "I", as "intersex" is an actual biological status?

Guest Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Some riots in Berkley (sp) last night, people trying to shut down that Milo whatshisname tit, the gay nazi that is for some reason a known public figure. It feels like I've been asleep for about 2 years and woken up to the apocalypse, it's just become chaos from all angles and I can't wrap my head around it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can we not just make this thread a 'shit Trump has said and done' thread please? Â If it's noteworthy, then it shouldn't be hard to add your thoughts and why you think it's relevant and try to actually make some discussion out of it. Â Don't just post for the sake of it - we can assume that people on the forum know how to use search engines and news websites for themselves, thanks. Â Â Not going to make any more warnings for this point. Short suspensions for this hereafter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Tommy! Posted February 2, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted February 2, 2017 I saw Ice Cube at a wee concert in Ireland I'd always had you down as more of a hard-sports than watersports kind of guy. Â Ohh and the Australian comedian mentioned earlier was probably Brendon Burns from "I suppose this is offensive now". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If "Bisexual" could be given an alternative label starting with E - like "Everyholesagoal" or something - then we'd have a LEGIT acronym that's bound to get over.

Otto Dem Wanz Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 To get this thread vaguely back on topic:  Kellyanne Conway has come up with a complete fabrication about a ‘Bowling Green Massacre’ that was supposedly committed by two radicalised Iraqi refugees in order to justify the immigration ban. This 'Massacre' didn’t happen.  In more encouraging news, the New York Times hit a record 3 million subscribers yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
