    That's not political correctness. That's people talking through their hoop.

    No one is telling you that you can't eat meat on Christmas day. It's an awareness campaign, feel free to ignore it.

    Have you ever looked at the meaning of political correctness or do you just apply it to anything you dislike?

    I think I say it best when I say would they ever fook off and keep their dietery opinions to themselves, same to that clown who won't accept the new £5 notes because they contain a meat product in them.

    No, they're telling us we shouldn't eat meat.

    I have no problem with this trend of women getting naked to try and make me stop eating meat. I'm not going to stop eating meat no matter how naked they get, so it's win, win.

    I must say, it never crossed my mind to eat 1/2 naked ladies on Christmas Day- until now.

    If you must preach, it is more palatable if you are largely in the nip.

    Calm down OP, it could be an anti-sprouts campaign.

    Other than that protest today, I'm pretty sure that this isn't a recent development.

    People have different opinions, it doesn't mean that you have to listen to them. I will be honouring the animals this Christmas by eating them, in order to ensure that they did not die in vain.

    Yet again somebody misuses the PC term.

    This has nothing to do with political correctness nor are telling you to do or not do something. It's a protest, a campaign even but they are in no position to 'tell' you anything.

    The first time I heard the term 'political correctness' was during the first gulf war when they came out with phrases like 'friendly fire' and 'collateral damage'. I've always thought it meant to sugarcoat your words rather than to say something horrible like "a moronic Yank in a plane has dropped a bomb on a hospital full of innocent civilians".

    Not only is a blood soaked woman on a plate not political correctness but I'd say it's the exact opposite of it.

    And there was me about to skim over another AH thread. This is worthy of my attention.

    I remember a girl years ago who used to get naked and eat meat.

    God I miss that girl.

    Ha. Someone you don't know is protesting about something you don't care about and nobody is going to make you do anything as a result.

    Jeez, it must be tough being you. Seeing vegans under the bed too? If symptoms persist, consult your physician.

    So unless we stop eating meat, blonde ladies will continue to carry out semi naked protests on the streets.

    There may be a weakness in this strategy.

    You're very fond of brigades. "The animal rights brigade!" "The climate change brigade!" "The politically correct brigade!"

    Great craic altogether.

    But aren't they the guys who tell us not to meat on every other day of the year too ?


    The only way this would be mildly interesting is if they said "Eat meat on Stephen's day instead."

    NO! You're too politically correct to understand but there are whole brigades, BRIGADES, of policitally correct, animal rights brigadiers that are try to steal the turkey and ham from your children's mouths.
