Phew, I'm just glad the crowd supporting a large Irish contingent took the "gender-neutral" colour choice of green so seriously...

The divisive stuff served up by right-wing newspapers. They know exactly what they're doing - and they know how to press the buttons of their readership, if the comments on here are anything to go by.

I just struggle to understand why people feel so threatened by things that try to be more inclusive. Why does it bother people so much, particularly when it has little to no impact on their day-to-day lives?
So, anyone who has an opinion that doesn't match yours, is frothing at the mouth, having their buttons pushed, and feels threatened. Or, as your equally childish colleague says, is having a gammon meltdown.

Can't you for once, cut the self righteous morally superior crap out, stop goading and not spend your time on here trying to put down other posters. Just counter the post which you disagree with with a comment. If you can't do that walk on by.

See Salem's comment here. Same both ways.

Yet more appeasement to the minorities & and women again are the target .
Geldings are always male btw . Tends to be a thing in nature that there are only two genders .

Apart , obviously , from humans where there are apparently 72 at the last count . What a time to be alive :D

Sadly, female-only initiatives continue to be damaged by politically correct zealots and infiltrated by a handful of men pretending to be women. It's sinister.

The decline of gentlemen's clubs are suffering the same fate. For some reason, it's bad for men to have their own spaces.

Indeed it is. Apparently geldings will now be allowed in the fillies + mares race next year, won't someone just think of the children!!!

In his and your opinion. That doesn't mean you insult or try to belittle people who's opinion is different. That is not accurate comment.

Read the posts. All this shit about gammon meltdowns and frothing at the mouth is just WUM tactics, it is clearly aimed at TF posters, and it will stop one way or the other.

If you feel that you need to express yourself in that manner, then go into Pandemonium.

Will start by shipping the posts or part of the posts out from now on, and see if that fixes it.

Because one day it will, but since the original change was conceded without a fight it will be too late then.
