    No, it's data that you can't put in the corner, but you'll have the time of your life with it.

      I need a haircut and was thinking of stopping in at a hairdressers I passed today, then decided not to as their sign said unisex hairdressers. I'm not going through expensive and painful gender-neutralising surgery just for that.

        It means you have to be male OR female. Transgender not allowed.

        NLyUK is not welcome....

          No it doesn't.

          It says "unisex" not "unigender".

          So they rely on your chromosomes but ignore your hormones and appearance.

            Whoosh. The sound of a joke going over SE's head.

            How is the mod application going?

              Unisex is what you get between leaving school and getting a job.

                It was a very poor one using gender and sex the wrong way.

                Can't be a mod as I may have to get a proper contract soon.

                  On the subject of applications, I was interested in joining a volunteer group and was sent a long form to fill in. it's an active role repairing footpaths etc, so fair enough to ask questions about health, but why do they ask about sexuality? Do they imagine I am going to molest ditches or something?

                  Apart from straight/gay/bisexual it has the option other. Who is going to tick that when pursuing many other sexual interests is illegal? They would probably get a supplementary form to fill in asking for more details of preferences - children, corpses, goats etc. and then get arrested.

                    Useful psychics

                    Why must psychics be so involved with serious stuff, always telling us about the end of the world or some awful fate that awaits us? I'd really rather not know about those things. Better to live your last few weeks in ignorance that worrying about the coming doom.

                    It would be much more useful if they helped us out with little everyday things. It surely must be much easier for their spirit guides to find out about those than about some coming Armageddon, so they could charge a reasonable fee and have a better income from a lot more customers!
