To be honest I didn't even get the undergarment thing, I took it as a slip of paper i.e. membership card for the PC Brigade.houseboy wrote:Humour mate, not meant as an argument or insult. Read what you have replied to and think again. Whatever I write on here is simply my opinion, not a statement of unalterable fact, you are entitled to your view (as I think I stated) but your reply originally to me was somehow suggesting that I wasn't, or that I shouldn't be expressing it. You will never see me reply to anyone and say they are talking rubbish, or call them an idiot or any other personal insult, if I disagree I will say so but I never go to the level of personal insult (apart from in fun). I will have a laugh or a serious debate with anyone but please understand that nothing I say is ever personal and is never meant to be.
The phrase 'your politically correct slip is showing' is one I use to illustrate what I mean about men being slightly feminised by political correctness, slip being twofold, a women's undergarment and being drawn into the idea that anything male is now being seen by many as bad. Again it is meant as humour, but I suppose to many these days it is 'unacceptable'.
I think I just get annoyed at men who state the opinion that women are somehow plotting to make us 2nd class citizens, which is tin foil hat territory to the extreme. I realise that most of the time it's just said to make a point against some current news story or other rather than actually being a deeply held belief, but to me it lessens the debate and does a disservice to both men and women.
