Re: Missing Cafe' Members
PDX was getting a bit too aggressive with asserting that any man who dares to shove both legs down one pipe IS trans-* and came in for some fire over that and stomped off in a huff.

Re: Skirts in Schools - No hope for boys
The level of hypocrisy in schools has always startled me -- for the simple reason that we should NOT be teaching children, by example , of what hypocrisy is. We should be trying to dissuade them from it. But, the status-quo is more important than anything else, so that's what gets beaten into the li...

Re: Sir Garyson Perry is "just a man who likes to wear dresses"
No, this is not "future thought" in the slightest -- it's perfectly applicable in the here and now. For both of the use-cases above. Let men be human ! What's so hard about that? (Unless you're entirely consumed by rad-fem doctrine where dehumanising the opponent is critical.) And if one i...

Re: Sir Garyson Perry is "just a man who likes to wear dresses"
I hope that GNC becomes more widely used to describe us. Some here would disagree with this sentiment - some would like skirt wearing to be normalized as mens clothing, such that they are conforming to their gender in wearing one. I know for sure that I disagree with it -- vehemently. I am a human ...

Re: Sir Garyson Perry is "just a man who likes to wear dresses"
II really do not like the work transvestite ot tranny for short. It still has a perverted sexual connotation that I believe is not good for our cause. Crossdresser is not a great term, but I accept it because the definition is accurate and it applies to me. {sigh} How many times does this have to b...

Re: Out and About -- In the World at Large
If a private business has rules, policies, etc. that you don’t like or agree with, why not simply do business elsewhere? This is by far and away the simplest and least confrontational way of doing it, but the problem is that there are no lessons to be learned -- by either the establishment or socie...

Re: Skirt from a tablecloth?
Oh I do not disagree - and would only resort to laser for precise needs (such as cutting a gasket). But I love the idea of using one, which is how my projects tend to grow in scope. There is some "sexiness" to the thought of using space-age tech in the creation of things -- and in places,...

Re: Skirt from a tablecloth?
A good sharp pair of scissors is more than capable of doing a perfectly decent job of this. We've been making clothes since way before LASER technology.

I was just playfully bustin' you. There was precisely no ill intent intended. I, too, fall into Analysis Paralysis from time to time.

Re: Skirt from a tablecloth?
Remember the KISS method - Don't over complicate the process. Hence my comment about reaching for either a slide-rule (upon which Pi is clearly marked) or a calculator. Circumference is 2 * Pi * Radius (which is the same as Pi * Diameter as Diameter is 2 * Radius). Some simple algebra will lead to ...

Re: Harry Styles again
This stereo typing what boys can wear and what toys he should play with, can be fueling the shortage of those who become nurses and doctors. To me if you take away from boy who likes to play with dolls may have the protentional of becoming a nurse or doctor. I believe all these restrictions being p...

Re: Skirt from a tablecloth?
It's 70" in diameter? I should be able to fold it a few times to get the precise center. Fold it in quarters (halve it, then halve that) and the resultant "point" will be the precise centre. Mark that, as that'll be your starting point. Get the slip-stick (or a calculator) and figure...

Re: So my wife got me a handbag for Christmas….
The word purse was used to describe a bag that a person carried long before and gender connotations were ascribed to it. There we go. Imagine that ! Hilariously my late ex actually crocheted me a bag from household twine many years ago and which I still occasionally carry. I'm not "bag averse&...
