I agree with Terf Vibes' article, but I think we also need to find new ways to accept boys being gender-conforming, too. I'm talking about accepting rough play, hitting things (not people), risk-taking, male bonding. Of course, what I'm not talking about is being disrespectful, treating girls and women badly - we need to instill into the forthcoming generations that women are human beings deserving of the same regard as men. Somewhere, the upbringing I (and - I suspect you - Dusty) got deprecated, and too many boys and young men think that porn is reality.

Hi Jeremy

I agree with all that. When I was young, apart from when doing homework, I'd be outside interacting with other children. Me and my mates were crazy about playing football and would play it for ages. I was allowed to watch Children's Hour and that was about it in terms of TV. Of course there were no computers. Covid undoubtedly caused an escalation of this. I ended up being a patrol leader in the Scouts and that took up a lot of time as well and taught me loads of practical skills. Trouble is parents are now ( probably understandably) paranoid about letting kids play outside on their own.

Terrifying about the spread of porn and what, apparently , some young people now think is normal.

Sigh!!

Excellent points Jeremy, I agree. The sex differences have been so maligned to the point that it’s now regarded as thuggish to be manly, particularly from left wing people and sadly many women. What happened to ‘vive la difference’.

Really sorry to hear about KJK’s daughter. Thanks Dusty, I’d missed that information. Hope all goes well.

Apparently, the hospital missed sepsis - a story that keeps repeating when it shouldn't.

Cheers dusty

Great song

Like yourself I’m in two minds about glinners recent crowdfund

With any of his I’m usually like here take my money - but this one doesn’t sit easy with me - and I’m entirely unsure why 🤷‍♀️

I must do more investigation into the surrogacy business ( although I think that was in your last post ) I had warm fuzzy feelings that it was helping couples in need although it would seem it’s much darker than this

Best wishes to KJK’s daughter

Back to being me - was out for tea tonight with lp - o she was a hangry little shit ! Wasn’t amused at me eating lamb whilst scoffing down chicken !

Will teach her about hypocrisy on her next visit

You're welcome, Petal.

I'm still not sure re Glinner's fund though now feel it might work if the police still reject the even more evidence and then you can take legal challenge against the police.

I have become totally opposed to surrogacy on the basis that it exploits women and commodifies children.

Fingers crossed re KJK's daughter.

Don't quite know what that argument with LP was about!!?? Lamb versus chicken 😊
