Here's one for you.

"Well that deserves a good punt in the banjo"

Disgraceful?

Swear filter worthy?

Misogynistic and puerile?

Well I just made it up.
As I'm sure did the hoof and slats originator.
Nothing sinister intended I'm sure.
This place becomes more pious and judgemental and "snowflakey" every bloody day.

Have a word with yourselves.

Describing people as snowflakes sounds pretty judgemental.

Have a word with yourself.

I wouldn't fancy a punt to my banjo that's for sure 😯

Ransos, no toys thrown. You're the one that seems unable to accept that the very people who should know what constitutes sexism or misogyny since they are the ones who live with it disagree with you. Maybe you should have a word with yourself and stop telling people what they should and shouldn't be offended by on behalf of other people that don't need or want you to think for them.

Quite telling that in all the time that phrase has been kicking about on here not one female has seen fit to comment on it's offensiveness. Even in this topic. Maybe that should tell you something.

You seem to be putting a great deal of effort into arguing against things I haven't said. I find it instructive that you choose to grossly misrepresent a simple request to think about your language. Much easier to act like a petulant child, I suppose.

Quite telling that this forum is dominated by middle class, middle aged white men.

Ah did I miss her? Apologies.

Ransos, you did say that. Or as much as. I considered my language and gave you reasons for considering it if not polite conversation then not misogynistic. You can disagree all you like but you chose to dismiss the opinions of the very people this would be directly offensive to if it was, which they deemed it isn't. I at least made an effort and got peoples opinion on the matter, what have you done other than caper about on your snowy steed?
