Stop using terms ‘boy’ and ‘girl’, Stonewall tells teachers
 
I honestly doubt there’s any organisation that’s done MORE damage to the fight for fair, considered trans rights than Stonewall. Might take a decade or two for that to become obvious to all.

We should be concentrating on what the children call the teachers and instill some respect in the little horrors.

Gammon (insult)

Gammon is a pejorative popularised in British political culture since around 2012. The term refers in particular to the colour of a person's (white) flushed face when expressing their strong opinions, as compared to the type of pork of the same name.



the only person who ran away was you and thankfully you dont now use the term (to your credit)

You never admit it

BBC News Text
[The Church of England is set to debate
whether God could be referred to in
"non-gendered" terms, the Daily Mail reports.
The paper says Anglican bishops are
preparing to launch a major project on
gendered language this spring - which might decide
to stop using the male
pronouns "he" or "him" in prayers.]

Tbf nobody really knows what or who God is.

If there is any truth to these religious passages in the first place.

Basically imo the they/them pronouns actually makes a lot of sense when describing a God.

bots 08-02-2023 04:51 AM

the absurdity of arguing over the gender of an entity that doesn't even exist is quite spectacular :laugh:

Why do they feel the need to change the pronouns,this goes alot deeper than that the whole "spiritual" argument. They want to change & erase words from the English language..... Under the guise of
" Making people feel accepted" , when in reality it's more about butchering and seeing how far they can push the agendas.

it's actually a far bigger problem, because the vast majority were pretty easy going, but now they have been activated by the absurdity of everything that is going on and that leads to the empowerment of nutters. It's a battle thats coming closer every day, and it's not going to end well

I honestly think the approach taken when I was a teen was better - no-one particularly cared if someone was LGBT, it wasn't especially praised and the issues weren't elevated, it just wasn't really a thing.

Mmmm when I was a teenager at high school any issues or differences or what we were quickly sorted out .. the teachers just whacked us .. with a cane , slipper or text book … plus a flying wooden board duster aka verbal warnings


I casually looked across at my girlfriend ( at the time) in a lesson .. seconds later the teacher whacked me on the back of my neck/head with a telephone directory … and I was a flaming Angel in class

Nobody wants this, not even the furthest out in the fringe have ever cared about what this made up persons pronouns are

Well it's something the Church of England is literally debating. That's not to say it's because of fringe weirdos pressuring them. And it says that priests will have the choice to do so, not that it would be mandated.

I agree it's a load of fuss over nothing, I doubt any priests would do it given the choice. Those who would want to probably already do, it's not like they send their "scripts" to be approved or anything lol

The astounding thing is that the CoE want to change the gender of all holy writings, but can gay people get married in a church? No bloody way :crazy:

Livia 08-02-2023 01:07 PM

CofE set to edit and rewrite the bible. Hope they don't mess with the first testament or the Jews will have something to say. Also... the Muslims, but we know how liberal they are.

joeysteele 08-02-2023 03:49 PM

This really is utterly ridiculous of the Church of England to even think about or debating it.

For those who do believe and who follow Christianity for example.
The figure seen as the head of Christianity namely Jesus.
What are his followers to say in the prayer it's stated he taught to all.
Starting with ''OUR FATHER'' ........

Could they now advocate saying, something like ,OUR WHAT which art in heaven????
What will they now term too as to, Father, Son and Spirit.

Honestly, is it any wonder the Christian churches are seeing endlessly dwindling congregations.
When they waste time discussing total nonsense like this.
Messing around unnecessarily.
With all the chaos there is in the World.
