sometimes, I just feel like crying......

perhaps it's just because the sheep are better looking?

Cheeky sod!

I thought hard before posting that. If you'd been a youngster I'd have swerved it cos a youngster might not have seen the humour in that.

No offence meant, and thankfully none taken (I hope).

None at all. Gave me a good belly laugh actually. Very quick.

Anyway, I don't think Welsh men can tell the difference between women and sheep, I've often been accused of being mutton dressed as lamb.

FC I live in Wales and have spent more than half my life in Wales but I was born in England. When Wales play England at rugby I cheer for Wales, so you tell me if that makes me Welsh. My two daughters were both born in Wales so they don't have the dilemma.

As for Neil's sheep stereotype, at festivals we decorate our encampment. However as I hate national flags we have a daffodil windsock on our flagpole and two inflateable sheep attached to our awning to declare our Welshness.

However there's this curious thing that people from a country can mock themselves but may find it offensive when people from another country use the same clichees.

A few years ago a bloke in Hull was prosecuted for buggering a nanny goat. He used a defence of it was "a spontaneous act." Being from Hull I think he would have got off if he had claimed mistaken identity for his girlfriend.

His defence was "A spontaneous act"!? He must have had terrible Baaa-rrister

[grumpyhack]

It's the nanny state again. He could have tried this to spice things up.

I'm more bemused by orange tans. Why do women like them?

[Kyelo]

If we are saying that women shaving is being driven by mens oppression then the spray tan is clearly driven by women but why?!

I dunno, I really don't. My sister is helping doing counselling at a secondary school, and she's surprised at how some girls are giving blow-jobs very easily and not even thinking it's a sexual act....

[feral chile]

it probably is fashion... but a fashion which still encourages women to look like they're under-age and being dominated by males. And it would be fine if it was the women driving it, but I don't think it is overall

I think one of the comments was interesting, that the sexes are becoming more divided than ever

bit like the divide between the rich and poor

maybe that's what this periods legacy will end up being.... more division?
