Re: Cash or plastic?
[...] No tranaction fees are charged by either the retailer or the bank. The retailers don't directly pass on the transaction fees that they are charged because it would be bad for business, but for small shops the cost of processing cards is a significant drain on their profits.

Re: Gender Neutral Fashion is failing skirt-wearing boys
I totally agree with Barleymower. My worry is that some people may come to believe these myths if we do not challenge them each time they are repeated.

Re: Gender Neutral Fashion is failing skirt-wearing boys
I am more than happy to show the science to prove there are two, and only two, biological sexes. You must have had to search back before Watson and Crick in the early 1950s to find it (possibly to pre-Darwinian times). I can also find 'science' to prove the phlogiston theory and 'science' based on ...

Re: Gender Neutral Fashion is failing skirt-wearing boys
[...] There is also no such thing as the color blue. Actually it would be easier to argue that there is no such thing as the colour green. If you arbitrarily divide the colour spectrum into two, red is one end and blue is the other -- so you can argue (like Stu) that the colours in between don't ex...

Re: Gender Neutral Fashion is failing skirt-wearing boys
There is no such thing as non-binary. Sex is either male or female. That's all. This has already been thrashed out and explained ad nauseam yet you keep coming back and re-asserting the same incorrect nonsense time after time. It is becoming tedious. Are you incapable of understanding the simple fa...

Well that settles that... the gender guru has spoken!
