terrahawk you big soft git

Big soft git I may be, but I’m a big soft git who can afford an Orange, so why would they want to risk putting me off buying one?

You see, it’s not the ethics of Girlie posters that interest me. I doubt anybody’s mind will be changed on that one and this isn’t the place to discuss it. But they knew the cameras were coming, it would take 5 minutes to take down the posters (and put them back afterwards) yet they chose not to. Why? If it was meant as a **** you to woolly liberal Guardian readers then fair enough. But woolly liberal Guardian readers make up a lot of their market.

Cheers,

Andy

Shep don’t make me post up a pic of ours.

Why is it, the moment anyone questions possibly offensive behaviour, the anti-PC brigade immediately jump to defend said behaviour?

Who gives a sh*t? Really…

So you don’t think people should ever question something they don’t feel is right?

Maybe Rosa Parks should have just stood up and let a white person have her seat then.

Going back ten years, there were wall to wall boobs in our workshops.

These days its all Deer and Ferraris.

Maybe Rosa Parks should have just stood up and let a white person have her seat then.

Most pointless comparison so far.

Congratulations.

Most pointless comparison so far.

Is it? Care to explain why then?

Receptionist or Fireman 😉

Edging things nicely into Godwin’s Law territory….

did rosa parks have great knockers and do page 3?

How many of the people objecting are female?

Not many, by the look of it…

how many female forum members are there?

Not many, by the look of it…

some of you ‘hand wringingly PC’ types are very sensitive

Back to the engineering firms where girls are dolly birds or ‘wimin’ on reception and foreigners are foreigners hey?

I doubt orange would allow the same calendars to be put up in the entrance for all to see.

Really why not it is either ok or not ok

so much so I don’t know how you go about day to day life spending your whole days getting offended / upset. There’s a lot of bad shoite going on in the world, how do you cope?

Easily I just keep trying to drag you into the current century

To speak out hardly means we are crushed and incapable of coping.I
If you would not put a calender in your office reception or your own front room then you know why we object.
if you would put them there then you are somewhat out of touch with current moods.

How many of the people objecting are female?

Is it really your view that only sesitive hand wringing men object to this …REALLY

Quality 😆

The middle aged secretary that sits behind me at work has some hunky looking dude with his top off as her PC wallpaper…so what, good for her. i don’t see any of the blokes in the office taking a strop / having a flounce…

Maybe due to the fact that there isn’t a massive history (and remaining reality) of sexism against men in the workplace – e.g. women still get paid less for doing the same jobs.

Most pointless comparison so far.

Is it? Care to explain why then?

I would hope you are intelligent enough to already know.

i take it you don’t actually have an explanation for your comment, then? Ok. Thought not.

so it’s not actually a ‘pointless comparison’ at all then. glad we’ve got that cleared up.

To be honest, the comments on here are much more interesting than the original piece, although I agree that it is mostly arguments that have been done to death.

Some people seem to be seriously questioning whether others have the right to care. If you don’t care, that’s fine. Most people would agree with you. But then, most people seem happy to walk through life rarely engaging their brain; pretending that nothing they do has any consequences. In fact, where and how you choose to spend your money is probably the most important political act you can make. The country we live in today was shaped more by the decisions we made about what to buy than any cross we may have made in a ballot box.

Anyway, Hitler would have made them take those posters down.

Right, we’re done 🙂

Men like to look at knorks,
Women like to look at moobs.
Big deal, get over it.
Is this seriously the biggest problem in the world at the moment?

Hows Critical Mass going Mike?

The only solution is to ban it all.

All of it.

No pics of semi-naked women or men.

Ever again.

Anywhere.

I still remember people sending round emails with naked women on them as though it was entertainment. Proper oldschool email shit. 👿

Ban the mini skirt, boob tube, leggings, low cut tops, shorts, vests, skinny jeans, in fact, owt that shows off a bit of skin, lets just all wander round covered head to toe in cloth shall we, preferably black so the gawdy colours don’t upset our eyes. 🙄

But the national gallery would be half empty!

I don’t know, as I haven’t been able to go along for the last couple of rides. I imagine it’s going fine though, as it has done for the last couple of decades or so.

Good to know, i was looking at havin a go on the next london one.

BAN EVERYTHING! EVERYONE! NOW!

Aw! But I like my boob tube!

Too. Much. Information.

Anyone got Hora’s email address? 😉

Double post.

Sorreee..

Woolly liberal Guardian readers are responsible for lots of the world’s ills IMO.

I see no problem whatsoever that a factory full of men doing a manly job like welding and making stuff out of metal should have pictures of women. Personally I’d like to see a return to some good old fashioned values where men knew about being men, not moisturiser and man bags…..

…then went to the pub, downed 15 pints, staggered gome, beat the wife and swore at the darkies on TV too eh?

Those were the days…

nothing quite like putting words in someone else’s mouth post…

if you disagree with his point then rebut his point, not your extrapolation of what you’d like his point to have been.

Saying all this my new phone is already creaking from a great deal of hardcore porn content 8)

To be honest I hadn’t really noticed. I see ladies wearing less in town on Saturday night.
Women have bodies,some like showing them. Get over it.

Its par for the course round here. I reckon most on here are secretly spin-doctors working for the gov practising their dark art here during their lunch-break.

Its laughable.

i take it you don’t actually have an explanation for your comment, then? Ok. Thought not.

You “take it” incorrectly then.

so it’s not actually a ‘pointless comparison’ at all then. glad we’ve got that cleared up.

It most certainly is.

All we have “cleared up” is that you seem to think a few harmless pictures of Women in the workshop, and probably a few Harmless pictures of firemen/pop stars/actors in the office (or any combination of those) causes the same Harm as Racial Segregation 🙄

I’d interpreted andyrm’s post as being somewhat toungue-in-cheek, and responded in a similar vein.

i’m sorry if you took it that seriously.
