Again, i’ve got to suggest you havent really absorbed the idea of the thread :think:

Like most threads the discussion accommodates directly related issues. Is that so difficult to comprehend. I know you like to see yourself as some kind of thread/speech controller but forgive me if I disagree.

:think: no I think you just love changing the topic to something that makes you angry. It's odd.

And the world has gone mad . I used "tall blondes " as an example as people have different preference , there is some people more attracted and sexualky attracted to tall blondes . just like some prefer petite /slim rather than bigger people.

My point is it's a preference ,are those people discriminating against others NO :nono:.

Unless they have hate or unhealthy attitudes ,then there's no issues.

I don't know where you've been. Even in celebrity Big brother back in January , India played the transphobic card :bored: just because Ginuwine was honest and said he WOULDN'T date a trans person .

Do you not get that a preferece for blonde's is not the same as a preference to a sexuality or gende


To compare hair colour to gender is weak at best

You are right though you don't where I have been


I can tell you now globally this opinion is by and large considered small minded.


As much as I love BB...I won't base my opinioin on A CBB in INdia

What is odd is that it’s obvious that I responded directly to other posts but no such criticism from you about them apparently going off topic. Funny that. :shrug:

I think this thread has proven how most people will react to a headline without reading the article in question.... And people get pissy at me for suggesting the public as a whole are rarely informed.

I'm not just comparing hair colour , there's all kinds of dating preference . im not arguing I'm just stating those as examples.

There's people who don't date outside their race .

And I don't think it's a weak comparison, you're missing the point .

Well the title of the thread is misleading. But I would say I am informed

And I can still criticise the public any way I please, just like anyone else can because that's what freedom of speech is.

Instead of trying to deny me that with odd and ineffective ways of trying to shut down my opinion, try arguing against it.

But you don't represent the public.

Just because you think you are informed doesn't mean much for everyone else. You aren't the public as a whole, you are, like every other individual, a grain of sand in the desert that is the public.

You use that word ‘odd’ again - what a coincidence! I will leave it there as I am being discriminated against and apparently not allowed to respond to your posts without getting infracted. Speaking of freedom of speech! Don’t want to make it too easy do I. Might be too late already. :shrug:

Well obviously we're all different :shrug: .

Like I said the title of the thread was misleading ,which is probably why some people seem "misinformed" . But the article is there for people to read :idc: .

Tom4784 21-07-2018 11:06 AM

I see you aren't interested in an actual discussion then, I'm not going to be dragged down into an argument with you, Brillo.

They reacted to the thread title without reading the article. That's why so many people in this thread think he has been sacked from the NHS when he simply didn't get a job as an assessor.

I originally thought the same thing until I read the article , like I said it's misleading .

Tom4784 21-07-2018 11:13 AM

Problem is not many people actually read the article.

I think most people (possibly stupidly) generally expect the actual story to bear some relation to the headline, even if the headline is obviously OTT. No doctor was sacked in this, so unsure why its made out that he was. I fall for this sometimes, have replied to threads with essays only to find out that the actual thread is nothing at all to do with the title/headline :facepalm:

Cherie 21-07-2018 12:54 PM

Why can’t the thread title be amended to reflect the article, that would save alot of time for everyone

BTW Who out of interesd who told you .."you wouldn't be allowed to say you WOULDN'Tdate a trans person"...


Jez talk about dumb logic

Anyone can be discruminated against including things like hair colour, weight, looks, intelligence, accent - many things that people are born with and can’t change.

In their head and usually in practice everyone discriminates about something. But for me to make up half the world population,in the case of females, I think it’s a bit more, and still be discriminated against by all, including minority groups, is the worst discrimination of all. It really is coming at you from all directions then and an insitution.

It’s been known for pages now the thread title is wrong, alot of peoole don’t open links or read any posts on the thread so they will react to the title, you can hardly blame them

Brillo there is a vast difference between who a preference and discrimination....Surely any adult can see that?

Oh come on people can have their lives made a misery and treated very differently by some for the examples I gave - what is that if not discrimination.

Women have been discriminated against since time in memorial and still are in some societies. It is institutionalised discrimination worldwide. So therefore women from all races have likely experienced discrimination and many likely still do. Please don’t try to imply I know nothing about discrimination.
