This isn’t about “bowing down to minorities” or whatever I think it’s just basic decency and inclusivity

You're not calling them blokes. Just like Barry wasn't telling rape jokes. Look, everyone has differing opinions and I think the above one sucks as I'm sure people think my opinions suck.
So you've seen everything have you?
Yep
Have you ever seen a man eat his own head?
No
Well you haven't seen everything then have you.

Who? My friend?

I must admit that I get a little lost in this new age stuff, I don't understand it all and I'll probably never try to.

I think that's the point many of us are making, it's not that hard to at least try.

I'd rather try than be left behind.

Yeah, I'll talk to anyone and treat them how they treat me, I wont try to get in their brain though to work out their views as they have bugger all to do with me.

Hearing someone like "Pink" announce that her child is "gender neutral" just baffles me, so I wont begin to wonder why.

I think the daunting thing for some people is, for every rare instance you should adjust calling someone who looks like a male to "Ms", you have to assume anybody who looks like a male could want to be called "Ms".

If you meet a new person (who looks male) through a business connection, I can almost guarantee you would call them "Mr" without a second thought.

Should you ask first? Or wait to be told?

Tend to agree.

20 years ago we were to unconcerned, now in 2018 we have gone the ridiculously opposite way. I'm happy to accept one may want to change gender for a variety of reasons. I'm comfortable with 'Adults' choosing to change gender. I don't get it but that's not my choice.

BUT

I don't care what anyone on this planet tells me you are born with a gender, you have a penis you are born a BOY. You have a vagina you are born a FEMALE. Yes that may change over time but it does not change the fact at birth you had a gender.

Use Ms and/or Mr. Never use Mrs in a professional setting unless you know for sure they are married

In terms of gender etc - personally I think you can make a reasonable assumption - and if you are politely corrected then just go from there

I’ll cross that bridge when I come to it. I don’t tend to spend too much energy thinking about things that haven’t concerned me.

I do too. People who find that offensive need to get a life.


If they’re offended by that they have bigger issues at hand!

Yeah, minus the glasses.

Could you imagine backing one out while someone that was born with a vagina was doing their make-up in the same toilet?
