Skirt Cafe is an on-line community dedicated to exploring, promoting and advocating skirts and kilts as a fashion choice for men, formerly known as men in skirts. We do this in the context of men's fashion freedom --- an expansion of choices beyond those commonly available for men to include kilts, skirts and other garments. We recognize a diversity of styles our members feel comfortable wearing, and do not exclude any potential choices. Continuing dialog on gender is encouraged in the context of fashion freedom for men. See here for more details.
I keep getting spam e-mails telling me how to 'separate myself from other men'. It involves wearing a patch to make a certain organ grow larger (wish it was my brain )
Trouble is, I have separated myself other (most) men - I wear a skirt :cheer:

Can't you stick the patch "on yer 'ed", then? Or will that just make you stand up straighter?

Mind you, that's probably more likely to make me grow into what I got called yesterday
The aspersion was cast by a cretinous motorist in a soft-top who wanted to jump the traffic lights I was crossing on a bike. When will people realise that a green traffic light only means that you may go once the junction is clear of other traffic? At least with him being in a soft top he knows just what I thought of him
Have fun (and feel free to carve up a few Porshe Boxters for me),

Do not argue with idiots; they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

I hope you were crossing on a green light yourself, if not then you're fair game in my book! 200 points if I remember right In a UK, sorry, in the UK anyway, the rules even apply to bikists!
I am the God of Hellfire! and I bring you truffles!

I was crossing a single lane bridge controlled by traffic lights. The bridge is too narrow to allow cars to pass a bicycle safely. I entered on a green but it takes around 30 seconds to cross on a bike, I was about 30 yards behind the last car going my way when it left the bridge, so, given that I would have been doing about 20mph at that point, the Boxter only needed to wait 3 seconds but he was too impatient to do that.
Unlike some cyclists I am a coward and value my neck, so I do not deliberately jump traffic lights; and I'm still p155ed about this pillock

If you're wearing a UK in the UK, then could you be called an UKUK???(A low guttural grunting sound) Here, I guess it would be a UKUSA or "Yewcoosahhhh", or USAUK which would be pronounced "YewSawk"..(This is, after all, the silly season) :bouncy: :whiteflag

In most civilised countries cyclists, when on the road, are considered the same as other road users and have to obey the same rules, though they tend to be varied a little on such things as signalling.

I used to think of stuff like that, but I'm off drugs now.

Me too. No drugs except the old man's prescription type.
As far as getting "points" for hitting a cyclist with a car/auto you DO get 200 points, and, if you don't kill the cyclist but merely wound him and you're at fault, you also might get "365" days...or more if he fails to ever get up again.:shake:
I really think drivers need to be careful when driving in the same areas as a lot of cyclists are. After all the auto drivers have the wide open expressways all to themselves without any cyclists allowed so they don't really HAVE to be in the same areas as bicycles are. It's true that cyclists need to signal for turns, but failing to have brake lights and other required items autos must have does make them a bit of a target for drunk drivers.
When I was 19 I was purposely run off the road and into a ditch on my 350 cc BMW motorcycle with a loud "Get off MY road" by the car driver. Fortunately I wasn't hurt and could give the tag number to the cops who promptly arrested the guy for DWI. (When I was young it was called "Driving While Intoxicated" instead of the current DUI or Driving Under Intoxication"). WE all have a right to navigate on the various roads we have and should give and recieve respect from others that use them.
