Oh hi 👋

I go to Cambridge about two-three times a year. I’ll be happy to meet the next time I’m around 🙂

Re: The Gurdian: Fashion designer Thom Browne: ‘Men should be able to wear anything’

I recall the many references to the Grauniad. I think Private Eye still calls the paper by this name. If you open you browser’s Developer’s Tools, you can see the website of the Guardian includes, among others a JavaScript file named: https://assets.guim.co.uk/…/graun.standalone.commercial.js So, t...

Re: Boots/legwear

Zara and Bershka have a collection of shoes on elevated platforms or heels, but one particular pair of shoes features a 10 cm (!) block heel: https://www.bershka.com/gb/men%E2%80%99s-high-heel-square-toe-ankle-boots-c0p149435595.html https://i.pinimg.com/564x/60/d3/03/60d303abbe60f4f0d87382c4ae400ca...

Re: bike riding

I cycle in exactly the same clothes as I do all other everyday activities in, which these days is mostly a skirt. Depending the weather it’s either a knee-length (or slightly over the knee), or — if it’s cold — a longer one (a few times almost a maxi one).

Re: Pyjama Skirt?

I bought one off AliExpress, it came too short with the slit too high, so it went straight to the recycling.

Re: Gucci Takes Toxic Masculinity to Task for Fall 2020

There is nothing inherently toxic about masculinity. The notion of toxic masculinity is essentially a myth - a manifestation of misandric hate speech invented by radical feminists. As some explained above, toxic masculinity is very real and it does not mean all masculinity is toxic. It is a term en...

Re: Gucci Takes Toxic Masculinity to Task for Fall 2020

If "toxic masculinity" meant that masculinity is toxic, then the evaluation of the term as "misandric hate speech" would be correct. But the original meaning of the term is not that all masculinity is toxic. "Toxic" here is an adjective that defines a specific subset o...

Re: Bride gets to grips with skirt-wearing man

Have you got an actual source for this citation? Everything I find are online bigotry reservations or hoax-spreading websites. https://www.change.org/p/the-guardian-this-person-promotes-hate-speech-and-should-not-work-for-the-guardian That’s not a source citing her , it’s citing some bullshіt video...

Bindel, who was a full-time Guardian columnist in 2015 when she said: "“I mean, I would actually put them all <…>” Have you got an actual source for this citation? Everything I find are online bigotry reservations or hoax-spreading websites. She also hopes that “heterosexuality doesn’t survive...

Re: Bride gets to grips with skirt-wearing man

I have been reading the Guardian for many years too, and it provides a platform for some of the most pernicious, man-hating feminist lunatics with whom we have the misfortune of sharing our society - including the likes of Julie Bindel, Laura Bates and Charlotte Proudman. It's vile. If women were e...

Re: Bride gets to grips with skirt-wearing man

The writer didn't need to turn it into an ideological point and I hope that wasn't what she was hoping to achieve. I don't want to sound cynical, but I am always suspicious when The Guardian prints stuff like this as there is so often a subtext of man-hating feminism . This is complete nonsense. I’...

Re: Out and About -- In the World at Large

Wearing a skirt on a trip to Brest, Minsk, Kiev and Lvov, I think I’ve never had so many literally jaw-dropping reactions as in Brest (and a bit Minsk), and people half-secretly taking pictures of me as in Lvov today. Damn it, people, just ask politely, I want to have pictures of me myself :)
