    Nah, they could point to using the popular americanism of the term 'guys' meaning both male and female.
    I couldn't give two fornicators! Yes, really!

      In UK law, he can mean she unless it is explicitly stated to be a he. Such a shame.
      If your company is the best place to work in, for a mere £500 p/d, you can advertise here.

        That's what a public school education can do to you.

            If I saw an advert line like that, I would assume that someone was organising a gangbang...I would ask for pics of the bint!!!

                    AFAIK, the porn business is always going up...

                    Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

                      I thought it was always going down.
