Bloke in our office suggested sitting her in front of "X Factor" - if she watches more than ten seconds - deffo female.

Give her a bicycle, a plank and some bricks. If she makes a jump ramp, she’s a he.

Why don't we ask her to do 2 simple tests that will prove it?

1. Reverse park a car - If she passes then it is clear she is more man than woman.

2. Bake a cake - if it comes out all right, then she is obviously a female.

I find it interesting that the ANC called it "sexist". Which sex are we picking on here? As for "racist", well that is just scraping the bottom of the barrel.

Does she lick the chutney spoon?

If she has a this, a that and the other, isn't she a man?

It all sounds very scientific to me.

"So what they do now is they do everything, and then they can say look, not only has she got this, she's got that and the other."

If she has a this, a that and the other, isn't she a man?

The way this has been played out is a fookin disgrace.
She clearly thinks she is female. All this speculation and the results of the tests are going to do her untold damage. Damage that nobody has yet considered.
Whoever let this be played out in public deserves to be shot.

Post of the day IMHO.

Well said that man!

I seem to be suffering from a sense of humour failure today. Sorry people.

No you were absolutely right first time round.

The usual sympathetic and reasoned arguments, rather like on here. We are a mean-spirited and vicious species - it really does get me down sometimes.

On a humourous note, BBC world service interviewed some chap from her village this morning and he said ‘we have known her all her life and we’ve never seen anything dangling in front of her to suggest she’s a boy’.

Indeed though, a shame people understand so little about gender.
