  so much is said regarding men , in a negative way.

  shaving commercials are now lecturing us as to how bad we really are.

  men should be less masculine.

  What Are Your Rights?

  by Simon in

  1. jw

  rights seem to be everywhere nowadays.

  say hello to someone in the wrong way and you've violated 101 of their human rights.

  people imagine they have the right to all sorts of things - food, healthcare, housing, internet ... so many things are labelled basic rights and then you get onto their human rights - a favourite of the do-nothing bodies such as the un to declare.

  This from Freeths, a UK firm of solicitors specialising in law regarding public houses:

  Right to refuse entry

  The age-old right of a licensee to refuse entry to whomever he wishes still remains and a landlord is not obliged to serve anyone just because they are willing to pay. A pub is a private place and the landlord can make the rules. HOWEVER, when deciding who to permit entry to or who to serve, a licensee must not make his judgement based on prejudice. Entry must not be refused unlawfully and equality legislation makes it unlawful to refuse entry on the grounds of sex, race, religion, sexual orientation and disability amongst other reasons.

  The dramas were a welcome addition to the droning repetitive talks but the recorded voices with the endless uses of ... Jeehhovvaaarrr

  You mean Jehovvaaaar Gaaaad?

  Also, great to be the one that breaks the link and saves the family eh?!

  Yes indeed. I have a great feeling that my family has been rebuilt following my parents foraging in witness-land.

  My brother and I are now great friends after 40 years of little contact. I have 5 children, 6 grandchildren, a very pleasant social circle and life is pretty good. I'm a very lucky man.

  The words used to frame a debate have a huge influence on our feelings about it, and thereby on the outcome. Abortion is the classic example. Neither side defines as “pro-” or “anti-” abortion, rather as “pro-life” and “pro-choice”. Each term is an ambush – implying that to disagree is to identify as “anti-life” or “anti-choice”, and thereby inherit an unappealing platform.

  On the subject of same-sex marriage, the term most in use these days is "marriage equality", the inference being that if you don't support same-sex marriage then you're anti-equality. Another ambush.

  It's interesting that Parliament's politicians decided that a call for a General Election requires the support of 75% of MP's.
  But to leave the EU only required 38% of the voting electorate to defeat the other 35% who voted.
  More than 26% didn't vote, resulting in Brexiteers winning by a majority of 1,269,501. (3.78% of all who voted)

  Presumably the 26% who didn't vote didn't care one way or the other about the result. Or maybe they were on their phones. Or maybe still in bed. Accordingly, the non-voting 26% can't figure in any way in meaningful statistics as to who wanted in or who wanted out. It's as though they simply didn't exist. Which was their choice.
