Ugh men can be pigs

[Remaker]

I flew into Edinburgh airport this afternoon with DP and my teen son and daughter. They have a system there for ordering taxis with large touch screens - as tall as a person. There are 3 screens but just one was in use for ordering cabs with a staff member assisting while the others were live and connected to the internet.

In front of us was a group on a blokes weekend to celebrate a 60th birthday. One of the younger (30ish) members of the group brought up a porn search on one of the screens which then became full of images of full on porn - fisting etc.

DP and I immediately very loudly objected and I jumped in to help one of the older guys who was trying to get rid of it from the screen without much success. He was obviously embarrassed. But the rest were all just whooping and saying things like ‘can’t take you anywhere’ while laughing. It was 2pm, there were little kids, women, older people in the queue subjected to this. The guys weren’t drunk. Surely it’s not too much to ask to not behave like animals in public?

Funnily enough, my daughter works at the same airport. She says that men travelling in groups are most often rude twats.

I've seen groups of hens/women on holiday in my city act no different in fairness. Terrible manners and carrying a large blow up coack around in the afternoon. It's not just groups of men.

I saw an article a while ago about an all-female settlement in Kenya, I feel sorely tempted to start something similar

yes because women are such a nice civil superior creature and groups of women get on so well together and there is no nastiness with women only? Um don't you read mn?

She said men 'can' be pigs. Not all men are pigs. And she's right, lots of men are gross.
