Is Ireland becoming a Woke Society? Are people too scared to say anything as it may offend…..
Are we too tolerant and easily lead?
It's the standard refrain when someone's crap joke fails to land. Time was, people would call it a bad joke and everyone would move on. Now, this is what you get.
Who’s offended and the opposite of relaxed? I just didn’t think it was funny. I don’t find bad jokes offensive most of the time.
I know you’re not doing it on purpose, but this kind of language isn’t exactly appropriate.
People who are trans, don’t actually change gender. They change how they present. As far as a trans woman is concerned, they’ve always been a woman but they were assigned the gender male at birth. So they’re now expressing their actual gender to the world, not changing gender.
I know that’s difficult for people to accept and it took me a long time to get my head around. But if that’s how they feel, it costs me nothing to respect.
So in my case, I know someone who was assigned female at birth but is actually a trans man.
Relax will ya.. ppl are way to serious these days, PC gone mad.. Cant say a thing nowadays without offending some one...
Very confused now, if he is a he, what gender did they change?
Or you mean he used to be a she and is now a he, and you misgendered them by calling them a she?
Mod:
Okay, this thread is getting out of hand with personal insults.
@gameoverdude - you have been given a warning for making personal insults and not letting it go. Do not post in this thread again.
Any more personal insults exchanged here will result in forum bans and the thread being locked.
Oh my. Reread your last post. Not dickish? 10 year old?
Right. No offence chief, but I’m not going down this road. It’s like arguing with 10 year old
Kinda was.
It most certainly wasn’t, no matter how many times you say it.
It wasn’t. You called me a dick for no reason
It was dickish.
Do you not find that personal?
Pretty sure that was another poster I was responding too. Plus your post was very dickish.
You called me a “dick” earlier.
Insults. Please point them out. I will apologise as I didn't intend any.
You don't seem to be able to explain what you mean at all. You're liberally thrown in personal insults about people sexual prowess bases on - nothing.
You seem all over the place on what woke means to people who are genuinely actively socially progressive - which seems to cut to the quick of the matter, it's just a meaningless insult to some people.
Bit personal.
No question there ,but I get your drift.
Ill stick by that. Cowardly and pathetic some posters are. Hitch on to any bandwagon going. If they had some testicular fortitude they might get laid.
While I do agree with a bit said on this thread, re sexism(both ways), intolerance in general, I will not have my opinions rubbished. I have explained myself, can you?
I've mentioned it so many times, we need to be like the fonz!
What do you want from me? More than likely I've explained it badly, but I'll try my best if you ask(might not agree with you though).
Is this you?
I genuinely have no idea what you're trying to say, and it seems I'm not the only one.
There a typo, by “rise” I meant “ride”
which this line seemed to imply: “Most of these lads can't get their rocks off by themselves let alone with a woman/man. “
Hold on there a second. I never said that!
Are you suggesting something here?
That's actually an awful comment. I'd like you to spell out to me what you mean. This feels like a trap.
You think people are pretending to be socially progressive to get the ride? Is that it?
Something better than this would be good.
Your best isn't very good.
Best I can make out is more hysterics about woke.
Maybe let's just leave it there.
Can't help you so.
I still haven't a clue what you're on about.
Interesting question. Not really.
Most of these lads can't get their rocks off by themselves let alone with a woman/man.
I find anyone denigration of beliefs disgusting, but if someone can discuss them, I'll argue and hate their beliefs, but I'll never try to cancel them.
I'll flesh out any of the above if you wish.
Based on what?
