      At my current place of work, I'm surrounded by women of an age group that I have always treated with a certain condescending deference. For example, when offered a cup of tea I say "Ooh, yes please!" as opposed to "yeah, thanks" which would be my response to anyone else making the offer.

      The looks I get from these women as I am conversing with them are quite withering. This led me to think about the situation; these women may be grannies but not of the benign, cake baking variety. These are a generation poisoned by Germane Greer and her ilk and are more interested in getting their clitties pierced than rustling up a nice Dundee cake.

      I lament the demise of the Great British Granny.
      They are giving you withering looks because you are a monumental weirdo.

        I hate it when sockies slip up. Can't they stick to some consistency ?

          Can we just be clear here - when we say 'older', what do we mean? Older than what? I'm sure one of the lads at work says "Ooh - yes please" when I make him tea...

                I am of an age where some laydees that might be called older are still young to me.

                It's a good job I dress on the other side these days.
                How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

                  title is about older women at work, the substance is about intimmate body piercings and Australian feminists, and the summary is about that great British institution - the traditional granny.

                  It is a disaster of a post.

                  come on sockpuppet Gricer, focus, get it together and stop this post-creep

                  WEOS.
