Re: Mississipi School Discriminate Transgender Girl
The press talked about banning things as the press is apt to do. However the way I read it, it is a calibrated plan to teach children the various facts of life when they are old enough to take the information in. Obviously, all children are different and there is a discussion to be had about what y...

Re: Pride
With regard to the "Pride" movement, I think at some point they should wind it up. They have won what they wanted and good for them. Being gay etc is like being left-handed - some people just are and nobody really cares. Live your best life and good luck to you! Were that but true. But in...

Re: Dr Who
Are you sure? This is the Daily Telegraph we're talking about here. Their hate on anything LGBT related knows no bounds.

Davies also said that, should the still of Tennant in Whittaker’s clothes have leaked, “I guarantee you it's the only photograph some of the papers would print for the rest of time.” He continued: “If they can play with gender in a sarcastic or critical way, they will. We could have the Doctor dres...

Re: Man in skirt wins Eurovision
I'm afraid this is really becoming a flag, which is good for them, but definitely not for an average guy who may be hesitant to give it a try :-( This will make me reconsider twice about wearing a skirt publicly in the coming weeks, to avoid the unwanted linkage. I was actually wondering about this...

Re: Man in skirt wins Eurovision
I found it most interesting that the song "The code" is not that far from what we're about here at the cafe. For example: Welcome to the show, let everybody know I’m done playing the game, I’ll break out of the chains You better buckle up, I’ll pour another cup This is my bohème, so drink ...

Re: Hypothethical Question
In inventing the "GNC Box" you're merely isolating yourself even farther from the mainstream. GNC is a description, namely the opposite of Gender Conforming. It no more creates a box than saying "leaves are green" creates a box of green things. It does not specifically refer to ...

Re: I finally wore a skirt in public
Thanks for the heads up. I’ve decided to buy online from Shein. They sell plus size skirts and dresses which look really good and they are an affordable price. I bought myself a black pinafore dress which looks lovely. https://www.shein.co.uk/SHEIN-EZwear-Plus-Solid-Overall-Dress-Without-Tee-p-2763...

Re: I finally wore a skirt in public
Anyway back on topic my partner is taking me shopping to buy a pinafore dress as she knows women’s dress sizes. She told me that she is proud of me and that I look great. I think that's a great look. Though pinafores don't seem to be super popular around here right now. A tip if you're want to try ...

Re: Red pleated skirt... that inspires a kilt
As the others have said, I've found ironing the pleats first, then sewing helps a lot in getting then straight. Also, sometimes theres a foot which helps keeping the needle a constant distance from the edge. Regarding pockets, I didn't succeed in finding a good design for integrating them into the p...

Re: Red pleated skirt... that inspires a kilt
That actually looks really cool. I can't imagine a bit of ironing will do nothing at all. Pleats take absolutely ages and I can understand if they didn't all come out well. These are all straight knife pleats, right? I've always wondered if there should be a point in the middle at the back where the...

Re: Barbie Ken Games & AI
The main thing to remember about Large Language Models and similar is that they reflect the world as it is. They were trained with data about the world now, and so will only repeat that. The funniest example I've heard is that if you ask for a picture of a fish you often get hands included because m...

Re: So my wife got me a handbag for Christmas….
My SO got me a cross-body black handbag a few years ago and I use it a lot. Not so much in the winter since when you wear a coat all the time outside, the handbag feels like overkill. But now it's warming up again I'm using it more often again. it's so nice to have all the important things in one pl...

Re: Sensitive Training
People and society? Not so much. This is one of the reasons I like where I work: as someone noted when looking at a group photos of my colleagues, we're like one huge collection of nerds (even the women). Everybody has something weird, in any normal company we'd be the weirdos, but here it's the no...
