"I don't really like Beyoncé."

School's that go OTT in suspending pupils over hair dye, piercings etc. Are making themselves look stupid. It is your idiotic policy that's stopping the pupil learning, not the nose stud.

If a schoolgirl wears a short skirt, she's not a slut, and your still a pervy old man if you get turned on by it.

Parents who do not let their adult, 18+ children's proper partners, ( I'm not talking one night stands), stay over are controlling and weird.

LushyMcLushFace love actually is a horrific film

Landlords, ( with some exceptions), are normally money grabbing fuckers and we need strict rent controls put in place immediately.

Nothing's more blissful than a package holiday to Spain/ Greece and if you don't like it your a raging snob.

If your paying someone the under 25 minimum wage rate, just cos you can, you're a cunt.

They should renationalise the water - you don't get choice or competition between suppliers so what's the point .

Driving lessons should be state funded and free first 30 hours .

People are dreadful and the sooner we are extinct the better

Staffordshire Bull Terriers should be encouraged to eat their owners

Drug dealers and users should be dropped at a deserted island a la Bear Grylls and left to fend for themselves

Convicted rapists and paedophiles similar, but different island

I do agree that sports people need to stop thinking they are great / hero's or whatever when they are basically doing their hobby better than most people could.
Some people need to grow a backbone ( me included)

Emma Watson can't act.

Four Weddings is a nasty little film about class and bullying.

Angela Barnes is not funny.

Sometimes, sometimes, children need to be smacked.

Drug dealers and users should be dropped at a deserted island a la Bear Grylls and left to fend for themselves

Convicted rapists and paedophiles similar, but different island

To be fair, they're hardly unpopular opinions.

Gender dysphoria is a mental illness and should be treated as such

When Teresa May made a huge point of proclaiming that being transgender "is NOT a mental illness", she was both lying/misguided AND also causing gross calculated offence to ALL people with MH issues by making the very clear insinuation that mental illness is somehow something shameful and not to be openly discussed or help and support sought just like you would if you had a physical illness or condition.

How can physically being one sex but wholeheartedly believing that you are actually the other - not just liking things more generally associated with the opposite sex, but that you ARE the other sex - be anything other than a result of your mind not working in harmony with the rest of your body? Thus it is a clear case of mental illness. Does that make it shameful? I say absolutely not, but Teresa May (and presumably also her advisers) obviously believes that suffering from any kind of MH issues IS shameful.

Angela Barnes is not funny.

And Nish Kumar should be free to take a very justified outspoken stand against negative racial stereotypes directed at non-white people on television OR to make crass sweeping negative racial stereotypes about 'white people' by pretending that it's just edgy comedy.... but not both.

I find people who get offended by swearing a bit... pathetic tbh. You're an adult, it is just a word e.g fuck or even Cunt. runs off (obviously doesn't include using racist language etc)

Champagne tastes horrible.
BF or FF I couldn't give a shit.
I don't like gold jewellery.

People should be a certain level of intelligence before they are allowed to reproduce.

I think Thanos was a force for good.

all drug users dropped at desert island

Brilliant, I'll get my suitcase! What time is the flight?

Fuck the fact that I work in a job helping others, I'm a daughter, nejce and friend, fuck my relationships, personal qualities eg kindness and strength, fuck my determination to goto meetings after training all day and 2hr commute to training centre to help my recovery, fuck the tapered coming off script...

All that matters is that I got addicted to dighydrocodeine. I'm 'one of them', I'm 'dirty', I'm an addict. Because we all know addicts are completely different species who couldn't possibly exist around others. Of course we all know us addicts are such vile humans that we can't share the same breath as you normals.

I say this is meeting's a lot when people are struggling. Clean time is important yes, but it's nowhere near the most important. I'd place kindness, honesty, openness, friendship, a loving heart, generous, funny all before clean time

The poster who posted this is living proof of that. Frankly I'd rather still be using drugs but be a decent human, than be so fucking judgemental and narrow minded

Madein1995 you don't need to justify yourself to anyone narrow minded enough to think that addiction is a choice. It's an illness and you're working on getting better. Fuck anyone who thinks less of you for it.

People should be a certain level of intelligence before they are allowed to reproduce.

Define intelligence.

People who can sing well naturally shouldn't be praised more than anyone who has naturally beautiful hair, they are just fucking lucky. Why should they win a talent show? They haven't worked at it like dancers, or comedians, or magicians, or other entertainers!

@Sweetchicken even as someone who did it on occasion, I honestly don’t believe they ever need to be. I think we just say that to justify losing our temper. The whole “oh you need to smack them if they are going to run in the road/stick their finger in a socket” is bollocks.

Mine are adults now, and I genuinely regret smacking them. It was infrequent enough that I actually remember each time and why (oldest twice, youngest once) and I’ve apologised to them. The sooner it is banned and people have to come up with alternative strategies, the better. I think that’s probably a more unpopular opinion than saying it’s sometimes necessary anyway.

When you stay in hospital, you/your family should pay for your food. The NHS should not have to. You'd be buying it if you were at home.

Holidays are very over rated and a luxury, not a necessity.

People who write 'your' instead of 'you're' and vice versa, are completely deluded if they think it doesn't matter.

If you cut down on calories you WILL lose weight.

Dubai is a horrible, soulless place and even if I was offered a free holiday there I’d rather stay at home.

WhatsApp is annoying to use - what’s wrong with good old texting?

We should be paying for doctors appointments. The NHS is badly managed. That’s the problem, not the funding.
Addiction is not a disease

Spelling and punctuation are important.

Inheritance tax is not unfair.

Home reversion plans and equity release plans are not unfair. You just didn't think house prices would rise the way they did. Equally, if you have an interest only mortgage because you wanted a bigger house than you could afford on a repayment basis, that mortgage was not mis-sold.

Dubai is a horrible, soulless place and even if I was offered a free holiday there I’d rather stay at home I've never been, but I agree!

People should be a certain level of intelligence before they are allowed to reproduce If you did that, who would do the less skilled jobs? You need a spread of intelligence and abilities so that you can fill all the jobs. It's not good everyone getting first class degrees when you need people to clean toilets and make lazy garlic (or is the latter done by robots these days?).

People who can sing well naturally shouldn't be praised more than anyone who has naturally beautiful hair, they are just fucking lucky. Why should they win a talent show? They haven't worked at it like dancers, or comedians, or magicians, or other entertainers!

But that's the very definition of talent - and it takes practice, training and effort to hone your act and learn your words/moves/techniques etc. Singing is making noises come from your body in a way that people find pleasing whereas dancing is moving your body in a particular way that people find pleasing - how are they really any different?

The biggest 'talent show' in the world is probably the Olympics. Do you think that Usain Bolt shouldn't win any medals simply because he was lucky enough to have been born with genes which made him grow tall and had the potential ability to run faster than other much shorter men? Should brain surgeons not be paid a high salary as their first step on the road to becoming one was a 'lucky' naturally high intelligence - and people with an average grasp of science/medicine could never become one, however much they might be willing to work towards it?

Spending thousands of pounds on Christmas is obscene and unnecessary. More often than not it seems to be people on low incomes, who spend half the time complaining about being skint, who then have a budget of £500 per child on christmas gifts.
