I'd have to have a better idea of what exactly your analysis amounted to quids... ;-)


but is there any need to keep banging on about



I mean, is there some un-PC forum you usually hang around which is much more fun and we should go and check it out???


As for the question I'm not even sure where it comes from - who exactly goes around calling people spinsters?? Or bachelors?

And where exactly is it less acceptable for women to be single in their 40s? Am I hanging around with the wrong people? Again..

who is "you and the pc world"?


Please note I simply asked the q as a general interest I am in no way fussed one way or the other. :p

If a spinster spins, what do confirmed bachelors do?

Perhaps we could make up a term and try to propagate it from this moment forward.


I'm guessing that traditionally they would either die or cottage, neither of which is particularly useful for us here.

Perhaps a whittler? Mutterer? Toper? Philateler?* Philanderer? Grizzer?


*yeah yeah, ist, I know

    • Kwik Fit buggered up an A/C leak diagnosis for me (saying there wasn't one, when there was) and sold a regas. The vehicle had to be taken to an A/C specialist for condensor replacement and a further regas. Not impressed.
    • Yes, these are all good points. I agree with you, that division has led us down dangerous paths in the past. And I deplore any kind of racism (as I think you probably know).  But I feel that a lot of the current wave of xenophobia we're witnessing is actually more about a general malaise and discontent. I know non-white people around here who are surprisingly vocal about immigrants - legal or otherwise. I think this feeling transcends skin colour for a lot of people and isn't as simple as, say, the Jew hatred of the 1930s or the Irish and Black racism that we saw laterally. I think people feel ignored and looked down upon.  What you don't realise, Sephiroth, is that I actually agree with a lot of what you're saying. I just think that looking down on people because of their voting history and opinions is self-defeating. And that's where Labour's getting it wrong and Reform is reaping the rewards.   
    • @Sephiroth you made some interesting points on the economy, on the Lammy thread. Thought it worth broadening the discussion. Reeves (irrespective of her financial competence) clearly was too downbeat on things when Labour came into power. But could there have been more honesty on the liklihood of taxes going up (which they have done, and will do in any case due to the freezing of personal allowances).  It may have been a silly commitment not to do this, but were you damned if you do and damned if you don't?
    • I'd quit this thread, let those who just want to slag Labour off have their own thread.  Your views on the economy are worth debating.  I'm just stunned how there wasn't this level of noise with the last government.  I could try to get some dirt on Badenoch but she is pointless  Whilst I am not a fan of the Daily Mirror at least there is some respite from Labour bashing. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/grenfell-hillsborough-families-make-powerful-36175862 https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/nigel-farage-facing-parliamentary-investigation-36188612
