"Welfare officer Jennie Killip told the BBC: "If you were born female, still present quite feminine, but define as a man you should be able to go into the men's toilets - if that's how you define.
"You don't necessarily have had to have gender reassignment surgery, but you could just define yourself as a man, feel very masculine in yourself, feel that in fact being a woman is not who you are."
A scrap heap of poor English and poorer trite PC toss.Comment

So, a man could walk into the ladies toilets and justify it by saying "I define myself as a woman"?

Indeed How about a man using a kiddies' loo, then piping-up with, "Hey! Don't trespass on my self-definition!".Originally posted by daviejones View PostSo, a man could walk into the ladies toilets and justify it by saying "I define myself as a woman"? This country has gone stark raving bonkers...
I remember with hatred and disgust the few students' union meetings I attended at Hatfield Poly back in the 80s: a maggot-infested corpse of a lash-up it all was, with numerous cliques, whose purpose in life was to create problems wherever they'd never existed before, only to offer up a Leftie and trashy "solution" (with a price tag, always a price tag), thus furthering their journey to New Labour-ism and CV padding. That Manchester Uni is also firmly in the grip of this sort of fabulous dross is, sadly, no surprise.Comment

FRANCIS: Yeah. I think Judith's point of view is very valid, Reg, provided the Movement never forgets that it is the inalienable right of every man--
STAN: Or woman.
FRANCIS: Or woman... to rid himself--
STAN: Or herself.
FRANCIS: Or herself.
REG: Agreed.
FRANCIS: Thank you, brother.
STAN: Or sister.
FRANCIS: Or sister. Where was I?
REG: I think you'd finished.
FRANCIS: Oh. Right.
REG: Furthermore, it is the birthright of every man--
STAN: Or woman.
REG: Why don't you shut up about women, Stan. You're putting us off.
STAN: Women have a perfect right to play a part in our movement, Reg.
FRANCIS: Why are you always on about women, Stan?
STAN: I want to be one.
REG: What?
STAN: I want to be a woman. From now on, I want you all to call me
'Loretta'.
REG: What?!
LORETTA: It's my right as a man.
JUDITH: Well, why do you want to be Loretta, Stan?
LORETTA: I want to have babies.
REG: You want to have babies?!
LORETTA: It's every man's right to have babies if he wants them.
REG: But... you can't have babies.
LORETTA: Don't you oppress me.
REG: I'm not oppressing you, Stan. You haven't got a womb! Where's the foetus going to gestate?! You going to keep it in a box?!Comment

Talking of political correctness, I think these people would be offended if they realised that ferret was automatically labelling them "prats" on here.
