    But Jeremy, if we are to be equal, then we must be equal across the board, and you have to take the good with the bad. And when you challenge the bad, and you're dealing with a complete twatcock of the female gender, don't hold back on the female twatcock just because she's a female, or even use gender in the argument (unless it's an argument specifically about gender, natch), just have at it, as you would with a man. It's not a "ok, you can be equal so long as you're not a twatcock" kind of thing. Equality is one of those warts and all dealies, I'm afraid.


    Jan, isn't it fabulous! I <3 Harry Enfield. :)

    Oh, god, you guys! I don't know who I am any more! Am I Gen X, a babyboomer, Generation Jones, all three, 2 of three, on the cusp...? 1963, was my year of geniture. All I know is it was a good year for French Bordeaux and surfer grooves!


    Ahh, those days of "No sex, please, we're NZers", back when little girls should've been flattered by molestations. We must fight hard to never return to those dark days.

    Nah, Jeremy, I just think that some women are twatcocks, and have been from birth. No penis envy needed.

    And speaking of nastiness in Oz, the Lindsay pamphlet incident takes the cake.

    Jesus, Mohammed, and Yahweh! *eek*

    I did laugh, Jacqui. And still do when I read some of the comments, and wonder how the heck they get away with it, while I get banned. It's a weird, weird internets.

    lol, how appropriate, Joe! A dirt box for a dirt story.

    So if you weren't allowed to read it, was it because it had a busty page 3 girl with no top on? 'Cos if they did, did no one pull them up on the hypocrisy of their naming and shaming a stripper, when a topless model is making them money on page 3?

    @Petra: no, don't know about these. Must have been before we shifted to Hammy from Wellington in 1992.

    Ahh, yep. Most excellent parties they were, but very much in the 80's. Maybe in the 70's too, but that would have been before my time.


    As for the Truth, I always thought they were just a gutter tabloid, but more of the busty page 3 girl variety, rather than the let's bash some students heads variety. Though, come to think, maybe there isn't really much difference between the two. Hmmmnn. Never read it myself, and never saw it around the house.

    I think I have a vague recollection of the King's Cross stripper from NZ though. Maybe...

    there are similar strong conservative waves over here, i hear the most outrageous things about race,economics and welfare down here everyday.

    You've been reading comments at Yahoo!, too, have you? Bloody depressing. I tried to put them right, I really did, but I got banned "for harassment". Go figure.

    Indeed, Jacqui. NZ (oh, shit, that includes me) is not above it.

    An old acquaintance of mine, who is now a friend on Facebook, is still raging against us liberal/left hypocrites and our "CLOYING, MAWKISH DRIVEL!!!"
