Re: Skirts in Schools - No hope for boys

I hope you do. Keep us informed if you see a trend developing.

Re: Skirts in Schools - No hope for boys

I am not sure what your reasons are, but a standard school has all of the above. As a governor you have a voice to affect the ethos of the school. I am a governor and the uniform request we got to consider was "could the girls be allowed to wear shorts as the boys were in hot weather?" my...

Re: Skirts in Schools - No hope for boys

I spent several hours at the home of a relative of my wife who had died. The relative had been a school governor for a secondary school for many years and his wife asked me if I would be willing to apply for her late husband's post as governor which, she assured me, doesn't take up too much time. I ...

Re: What feminine items do you wear?

Masculinity is very fragile and very weak , more-so than an egg. When compared to femininity, masculinity is years behind in the stone age. Maybe yours is - mine is fine. I don't "shun" feminine things, I just see no need to adopt them myself. I manage perfectly fine without smearing lips...

Re: What feminine items do you wear?

What feminine items do I wear? None. I'm a guy. Why would I wear feminine items?

Re: Intimate Medical Issues

And no problems with having a woman doing the checks! She bounced them up and down (gently) and didn't squeeze hard at all. Many men don't have a problem with that, but some of us do. The whole experience is what turned me from a frequent MIS to an exclusive MIS (trousers worn just twice in over fo...

Re: Intimate Medical Issues

...women patients have a legal right to be seen only by female medics for intimate issues while no corresponding right exists for males. That's an inequality. I expect men rape women much more often than women rape men. So women fear men more than men fear women--it's reasonable. Fear hinders openn...

Re: Intimate Medical Issues

Stu, do you have a source for this. I have consulted the "NHS Constitution" https://www.gov.uk/government/publicati ... ges-to-you and couldn't find an explicit female right. I may have missed it, but would be interested in more information, since this inequality is wrong. I have a confes...

From the other side, once you seen one you've seen em all, But you ain't seen mine. :wink: As an erstwhile medical student, I would do the exact opposite. My female contemporaries worked much harder than the men did. Well, mostly. I have a daughter who is an erstwhile consultant and I know she work...

Intimate Medical Issues

In the UK, patients supposedly have the right to see a doctor of the same sex for any intimate issues if they wish. This is normally aimed at women, but I guess men can also ask for that. Some people don't care - a doctor is a doctor. However, I am extremely uncomfortable with the idea of being exam...

I tend to find heavy work in my garden plus having two walks a day keeps my back pain at bay - aided by a codeine med to take the edge off it.

Re: The boundary between skirt wearer and TV

Crossdressing is wearing something because it is intended for the opposite sex - it is an identifier and an intentional signal that the wearer wishes to be associated with the opposite sex. And it's not generally restricted to just one garment, but rather to an entire look, incorporating shoes, hair...

Re: The boundary between skirt wearer and TV

A man who wears a skirt is just that - as a woman who wears jeans is just that. A TV is a male crossdresser - i.e. a man who wants to present as a woman or a boy who wants to present as a girl, whether that's in public or in front of a mirror. To me, as a semanticist, the boundary is perfectly clear.
