so this thread boils down to a bungled attempt
by a bloke on behalf of his brothers
to use the NRL to complain about bureaucrats.

what a bunch of drama queens!

Australia's entire bureaucracy
is in a state of perpetual confusion
because women and men are required to administer laws
enacted solely by men's legislatures
to which women are admitted according to the Constitution
under male supervision.

The Premier of Queensland Anna Bligh is under male supervision? Don't think so. What about the women in her ministry? Unless Anna is a bloke in drag, but again I don't think so.

Cornflower: << ...when it comes to playing the man and not the ball you are the greatest and none of those footy jocks could hold a candle to you >>

I thought it was abundantly clear that I was criticising the Qld coach for his strategy of targeting injured players - which is not only encouraging his team to 'play the man', but to pick particularly on those men who were nursing injuries.

That's exactly the kind of very poor sportsmanship that I dislike about NRL in particular, but apparently it's fine with many of its fans - including Cornflower. I actually had that conversation with some NRL tragics at the pub last night - who were saying what a wonderful game SOO3 was, mainly because of all the biffo.

I don't really mind being in a minority about that.

BTW Cornflower, do you have a crush on me or something? Not that I mind the attention, I just prefer more enlightened women and I'm already spoken for anyway. And I'm not into "buns", so I don't think I'm really your type.

I understand that Antiwomen is available, and he's previously expressed a desire to engage in a gang bang if he can find someone willing.

HAW!

@ Benk I AM A FEMINIST

- anyone who believes in equity and equal opportunity for women is a feminist, another definition would be a humanist with a particular emphasis on the marginalisation of women from acting equally with men in all human endeavours. And I KNOW that the majority of men agree with that ideal. However, exceptions like A-septic require someone to blame and as there are women who are particularly loathsome as well, their minor positions of power means that they can vex the vulnerable like A-septic, who then uses this as an excuse to vilify all feminists. And so it goes: Blame, blame, blame with nary a sight of moving on. I think it is a fair comment to say that we have all been treated unjustly at some time in our lives, whether we progress from our injuries is up to us (with a little help from our friends, family and even some counselling). I posit that men like A-septic prefer a common easy target like feminism, they are blind to the fact that a high proportion of their oppressors are other men.

My ex-husband was controlling and dominating and clever at physically abusing me - he would boast that he "never left a mark", now I could blame all men for this one bully or I could free myself and seek a better life - those times are behind me now, but not for A-septic.

@ CJ Morgan

How many NRL coaches go on to become captains of industry?

Answer:

The same number as can can fit on the head of a pin.

When are we going to have the facility to correct/edit our posts?

"can can on the head of a pin"

Too funny.
