Quite right. Dr Harrup told Posie off for appropriating the word Woman. I kept expecting him to say How very dare you
I must practice my Limericking.

How many? Who? Is Scotland trans central now?

When clubbing in my student days in the gay cafes, clubs and pubs you didn’t come across many transvestites or transsexuals. Lots of boring old gay people of course.

Purplewithgreenspots · 29/01/2019 07:22

I read in the Scotland section of The Times that trans people are feeling threatened by the tee shirts. I just want to shake them and say “not everything is about you”. Do the tee shirts mention trans people at all? No? Point made.

GerryblewuptheER · 29/01/2019 07:01

Are women appropriating the word woman again?

Tsk tsk

Can't wait to see the pictures.

Adult. Human.Female.

Pedalo84 Grin [grin ] Wine I was irresistibly reminded of Jane Clare Jones' description of Owen Jones - misogynist child with column in major left-wing newspaper. Grin

Pedalo84 you're on fire!
Bowl you've got a literary future ahead of you or my name's not Patience Strong.

OMG you OUTRAGEOUS RIGHT-WING FASCIST women.

Don’t you know that all of the following believe someone with XY chromosomes and a penis is a man:

• The American right-wing
• Putin
• Theresa May (maybe? Depends on the results of the consultation)
• NOT St. Jeremy, Patron Saint of All That Is Good
• David Davies, A HEADBANGING RIGHT-WING TOOOOORRRRRRY MP. A TOOOORRRRRRY. TOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRY. This is 1982 and we are 19 year olds in a student union bar after all. All TOOOOOORRRRRIES are evil.
• Hitler
• Stalin
• 99.9% of the people on the Clapham omnibus

Aren’t you ashamed of being in the same boat as them? Ignore how convincing the arguments are, just focus on who's in the same boat. Owen Jones isn't and, as you know, Owen Jones is the guardian of who's on the right side of history.

Also, if you paint watercolours, aren’t you aware Hitler painted them too? Aren’t you ashamed of painting watercolours?

If you haven’t got a grown up argument, go fuck yourself, ‘Scumsnet’.

It’s a fair cop, I’m afraid I’m guilty of ThoughtCrime too. Gulag here I come! Shall I go via the M32? It’s quite a detour but I hear something exciting is happening there...

GrinitchSpinach · 27/01/2019 20:21

Bowl, do report on your imminent dressing-down from PC Gul as soon as possible!

loving the limerick Bowl. I must say it's nice to see some poetry around the place.

makes us look classy

ChewyLouie · 27/01/2019 19:57

A bunch of women with a dictionary definition in large letters = right wing 😂
Feminist seen turning right on a roundabout= fascist.
Right handed feminists there’s lots out there = feminists are fascists.
All those women standing on the right on escalators to use the tube=fascists.
Explains why there are no dodgy men at all, ever ever ever masquerading as women. Men would never be right wing, that’s a bad feminist role.

Bowlofbabelfish · 27/01/2019 19:44

Yes I’ve often come across groups of American tourists - sick of the usual Windsor castle-lake District-Edinburgh route, they whisper with awe about the plastic sandwiches at Catterick, and name their children after Leigh Delamere...

Needmoresleep · 27/01/2019 19:43

How dare they. The American's favourite road has to be "the sweet little Chiswick flyover", opened by Jayne Mansfield 60 years ago. Perhaps the Americans could fund a banner there.

I find "feminists" claiming the territory, when self-ID proposals affect all women, almost as irritating as TRAs claiming our vocabulary. Indeed on this board I wonder if some are one and the same.

But good on you Bristolians. We are many. They are few. Plus we have science on our side.

Rogueaccountant · 27/01/2019 19:41

It certainly knocks Route 66 into a cocked hat, whether it’s the M32 or the 62.

HamiltonCork · 27/01/2019 19:37

But maybe it wasn’t the Americans who paid for it? Maybe it was the Russians? Or even some sort of industrial espionage from China?

One thing we can safely rule out is it can’t be British women grouping together and paying for it themselves. That would be ridiculous.

boatyardblues · 27/01/2019 19:34

The M62 is the most iconic of all the british motorways as far as americans are concerned.

It was the M32 FFS!! All this careless mis-numbering is so hateful.

HamiltonCork · 27/01/2019 19:28

American tourists do not come to the UK for our lovely scenery, heritage and royal family but because they can’t get enough of our motorways 😂😂

NothingOnTellyAgain · 27/01/2019 19:24

"We're not going to get far if women have to agree on everything vaguely political or contentious to be allowed to join in!"

YY - and that's the whole point of it.

NothingOnTellyAgain · 27/01/2019 19:22

Hamilton -

They can't get enough of it.

Bowlofbabelfish · 27/01/2019 19:21

on the M32 near Brizzol
Sedition occurred in the drizzle,
A banner unfurled
From across the world,
Funded by women of all political stripes because all of us are bloody sick of being treated like crap.

Oh that doesn’t rhyme. Never mind.

MrsFogi · 27/01/2019 19:19

Do women have to be left wing to be feminists, to be allowed to take part in debate, to believe that woman = adult human female, to oppose self-id? News to me, I'm not left wing but I am certainly a gender critical feminist. Surely women, like men, should be able to hold political views and/or views on any other issue?

I believe that many women in the UK (political views undisclosed) have donated to Posie, FairPlayForWoman, A Woman's Place etc.

We're not going to get far if women have to agree on everything vaguely political or contentious to be allowed to join in!

HamiltonCork · 27/01/2019 19:17

Why would Americans fund a banner on the M62? What utterly immature drivel.
