Is Ireland becoming a Woke Society? Are people too scared to say anything as it may offend…..
Are we too tolerant and easily lead?
Would you like a return to the time when disabled people were abandoned in homes and hidden from society?
Did I even suggest anything like that.
All I said was someone with such a disability that resulted in such a speech impediment meant that they were not very good at delivering live comedy.
Have you seen any of her material?
If not watch it, and come back.
No I do not, but the idea that you remember how you would have reacted is far fetched at best.
Do you not remember your childhood?
I remember almost nothing about my feelings until I got into my teens. I do not think I am remotely untypical.
Your post targeted her disability and sexuality, it's not like she can change either.
I always find those that use the word "woke" are usually those with serious mammy issues.
Maybe it's just me but....
You can't remember feelings from your childhood? That's utterly bizarre.
Not at all, people construct elaborate stories in their heads about what they felt when they have virtually no memory of the actual events they experienced. People are fantastic story tellers - especially about their own lives.
I have memories of key events and even about been in my pram, but I could not tell you how I felt at the time about 99% of my childhood.
I can, you'll just have to take my word for it given it was my childhood.
On what basis do you imagine that you would be horrified by been taught the mechanics of sex when 8 years old ?
Is it? I don’t really remember much myself. I remember events and extreme feelings. Like being threatened by a junky when I was a kid.
i couldn’t tell you how I felt about less extreme events.
I will say this as well, in the modern world it will be a rare child that gets to the age of eight without seeing some form of porn. That maybe an uncomfortable and very sad fact of life but I would much rather those kids had real sex education to counter the unreality of the porn they are likely to encounter.
On the basis of knowing that I wasn't ready to know about sexuality.
If you think you know what I was like as a child better than I do post some proof. I'm not going to pretend I know what you were like as a child or what you're like now.
Maybe I have a better memory?
Indeed, the same level of innocence as 20 or 30 years just isn't there.
That is entirely possible. I was objecting to the statement that it’s “utterly bizarre” not to remember though. I think you’re the unusual one if you do remember
Do most eight year olds have phones at school? , can parents not place site blocks on phones?
It only takes one child with a negligent parent or who is cleverer than the rest.
It's relatively easy to bypass blocking filters.
Can a PIN number not be used?
As I said, it's upto the parent.
Cause where does it end?
Do you keep up with all the pronouns?
God forbid if you used the wrong pronoun by mistake, you would be in a whole heap of trouble lol
Should it be termed "foetus carrier"? When in the womb, it's a foetus. Following birth, it's a baby. To me, a baby carrier is someone who is holding/carrying a baby, most likely in their arms/hands.
I can attest to this. Some of my son’s friends had phones when they were 8. I absolutely don’t trust their parents were sensible about it.
I have a Masters in Electronic engineering and 20+ years experience in technical roles. My sons know more about phones than I do.
You can’t trust parental controls. You either trust your kids completely or don’t give them a phone. Most parents don’t know that though.
I misgendered someone i know twice last week. The rest was him saying “don’t stress about it, thanks for trying.”
The horror
We have a Pin on YouTube kids and Disney channel on our smart tv , my son is seven and very bright for his age, he hasn’t yet managed to circumvent the PIN number though
On the TV. Give him a phone and see what happens.
How does one “ misgender “ someone they know twice in one week?
have you early stage amnesia perhaps?
He’s too young for a phone but I have a pin on my phone too
Atm, 25% of 12 year olds have seen porn. It goes up to 50% by thirteen. It's only increasing too. But it's knowing about transgender people that will destroy their innocence...
