Yes, I'm aware. Are you aware that I'm stalking you because it was news to me?

It's not LM.
I'm on a gagging order, which is a bit like having a lollipop permanently stuck in my mouth. I do worry about my teeth in these situations.Comment

Well...damned if I do, damned if I don't.
Of course, stalking is no laughing matter unless you're aiming to take home a haunch of venisonComment

Still, I'm curious to see what constitutes harassment on here and I'm now afraid to 'like' too many of your posts LM although I suspect that you don't consider me to be a stalker.Comment

Originally posted by mb31 View PostQuite so, I think it was because of my ironing poem on your sex thread. It's silly old light verse I wrote years ago. This is the first time anyone's called it inappropriate (and on this site of all places I'm surprised) and I've posted it on several other forums.

Sexism exists,
Over the last few years women have started to say enough is enough – this is upsetting some people
Over the last few years men have started to realise they can have emotions – this is upsetting some people
Over the last few years genders have become diverse to some – this is upsetting some people
Over the last few years more people are refusing to conform to society norms – this is upsetting some people
Some people are hard core sexist twats, some people are overly sensitive, looking for offence types.
Most people are between the two extremes.
The last time I picked someone up on sexism was a chap who (having just learnt that a good friend had died very young) shed some tears & said that “he should just man up” I called BS & told him to grieve if that’s what he needed to do.
Its ironic that as a female in construction I see very little sexism at work – on site, generally people don’t care what you are or how you identify so long as you don’t preach on about it & get the day job done. One day the rest of society may catch up!Growing old is mandatory
