Re: Men in skirts google trends

Carl when I see that "Sissy mini skirts" are just as prevelant as MIS, it obvious that we are very low on the horizon. After all there can't be that many men identifying as "sissy". If there are then the world is in world. isn't the fear of the wider community? That MIS are a bu...

Re: Men in skirts google trends

Trending is a BS put about when somebody wants to grab attention on some old news. The phrase "old wine in new bottles" comes to mind. I always heard that one as, "old vinegar in a new bottle", but the sentiment is precisely the same. Re-packaged stale nonsense. Google howver ha...

Re: Men in skirts google trends

It's kind of interesting, isn't it? We read the breathless hype about "Men in Skirts are TRENDING !" and yet nothing ever comes of it (like so much else that's hyped into the stratosphere). I think we can safely let this meme go. It's not going to happen in our lifetimes. In the (highly un...

Re: Does anyone assume you are transgender?

Sometimes you have to loose the shooting match to win the war. From all current observations, I posit that the war has already been lost. The reasons for that are left to the imagination of the reader lest I violate the rules of modern PC and offend all sorts of snowflakes. There's also the Souther...

Re: Does anyone assume you are transgender?

Actually there needs to be a method of addressing folks that is gender neutral. There is: "Hey, you!" Short and to the point. That said, our social structure is chock-full of little niceties that are designed to kind of "grease the skids" and make things move along a little more...

Re: Does anyone assume you are transgender?

I see no percentage in getting irate if somebody draws an incorrect conclusion about me upon fist meeting. If they goof it and call me "ma'am", I'll look in their direction and simply say, "Pardon?" and that's usually enough, If somebody harps on the matter, it's usually antagoni...

Re: Kris' Atrium

And at one point in time it was predicted that electricity generated by nuclear power would be "too cheap to meter". Right. Fast forward 70 years. We cannot afford to heat ourselves in the winter because it costs too much to burn the fossil fuels that come out of holes in the ground to hea...

Re: Kris' Atrium

Gosh, it was a while back in the halcyon days of 56K or ISDN! I'm glad I'm not the only one who recalls the sometimes rather savage days of dialup modems and all the fun that went with those. I was also involved during the dying days of BBSes. That was when 9600 BPS was the fastest thing you could ...

Re: Newsweek: Bad Bunny Wearing Dress for Super Bowl Show Sparks Fury

At the risk of going off at a tangent, I'd say that's because you haven't got a properly-funded public broadcaster, like nearly all western European countries have. I'd say that thesis is bang on. We used to have one, but that was sacrificed on the Altar of Greed by the current regime (and possibly...

Here, I'm going to invoke my usual observation about such machinations and ask, "Who is {foo}, and why should I care?" I don't "follow" "celebrities", starlets, jocks, talking heads, or sports -- all being entirely irrelevant to my existence and life. I'm not going to w...

Re: bike riding

Why would people get violent or break your windows just for riding a bike in a skirt? That seems excessive for most places, but, I suppose in some really backwards areas it's possible. That just points up how important it is to know your surroundings and be aware of them at all times. There's also ...

Yep. The choices, although narrowing, are certainly more robust than they are in the men's "section".

Re: Son gives up skirts, daughter in combats and dress that became a pencil skirt

We need to get Carl (CR) out of the doom and gloom mindset and back to proudly wearing skirts everywhere. I'll revert to fine once the stressors are removed; I retain some resiliency. I'm back to wearing skirts much of the time since there's no overt evidence of Gestapo operations in my area (yet),...

Re: Son gives up skirts, daughter in combats and dress that became a pencil skirt

Keep communicating and later there will probably be a time to discuss your feelings with them - now is not that time. Indeed, we tend to keep telling ourselves that, but time, events, and mortality eventually get in the way of it. I always had a very good relationship with my father, but he never l...
