Maybe if all the male teachers wore their mankini's it would then be ok for the girls to wear theirs??
Then maybe it wouldnt seem as creepy with only the girls wearing them???
Surely if the females can wear g-strings, the males should be able to as well, as to keep things equal and PC.

Formula Nova, you need to brush up on your grammar.
The title of this thread should be "HAS the world become too P.C.?"
In answer to the question though, my answer is no.

Punctuation correctness should always be the norm.

Cisco, my name is FormulaNova. I hope that you can get that correct in the future.

Yes, I read the title later and realised that I had got caught between two versions; 'Has the world become too PC' and 'Is the world becoming too PC?', resulting in the poor version you are critiquing. Alas, you cannot edit the title and would need to create a new thread.

I will let your failure to grasp my simple name go this time, but I really expected better!

"The English language"

Its an interesting concept. For it is a very fluid thing and anything that is deemed correct today may not be so tomorrow.

That is not to excuse, nor imply I am not offended by, FormulaDunce's very poor command and use of the most basic principles of the English language.

Some people really shouldn't post after wine o'clock.

This is truer and more tragic than you may realise...

Oh man, that is so wrong.

"Similarly, the terms "mother" and "father" should be replaced with "gestational" and "nongestational" parent, according to the Australian National University's Gender-Inclusive Handbook."

What happens if they have both adopted the child, or the 'mother' has adopted the kid and they are both nongestational parents? Quick, someone call the ANU and help those idiots out to make sure that they cannot unintentionally slightly bother someone.

I'm a bloke approaching 50 and live near the beach. I'm constantly seeing kids walking around with bits hanging out where they shouldn't in the main street here, train, as well as the beach itself and I find it really uncomfortable. Fair dinkum the only place that's safe to look is the sky.
If you read the article it refers to girls wearing skimpy stuff that probably causes giblets to hang out and I reckon she is spot on. Just coulda said it better.

Lucky we have universities and paid academics to work this stuff out.

With this sort of research coming out of them who could possibly say universities aren't under funded ?

A few more billion and we might get a handbook on how non-gender binary haircuts are holding back engineering excellence.

Or some research on where did the white male heterosexual go in university campus's and those white males that are left who is pretending to be woke to keep their funding. Yeh I suppose this liberal crapola is a Luxury we can afford. Won't be able to much longer. Wheels and roundabouts. Then the real productive people will need to get going again to then pay for more absurd, self fulfilling and pointless nonsense that academia has become. The irony of lol this liberal lefty nonsense is the very people who felt censored and unheard are the very pricks who are it only being the judge and jury for speech but are constantly destroying real people's livelihoods
with their hair brain ideas.

I personally would like to see technical only universities intrinsically linked to productive industries and then another place where these useless dip****es can spew out their nonsense. Oh and for gods sake stop using good money to fund this bollocks.

Already policy in a couple of hospitals in the UK, along with "birthing parent"...

But seriously now, I do find the concept of "parent" and "child" to be quite demeaning.

It conveys some sort of hierarchal order where one is somehow subservient, or lesser, to the other, based simply on the passage of time.

The use of the word "parent", either the gestational or non-gestational type, is holding many individuals back from fulfilling their own self by implying there is some sort of privileged veto power automatically existing over the decisions that the non-aged experienced might choose to make.

To ensure that society doesn't become entrenched in this spiral of oppression we should be using terms such as "gestational comrade" and "umbilically-liberated comrade" rather than the patriarchal terms such as 'mother' and 'baby'.


I am currently seeking a government grant for 3 years Phd research into how society is shaped by an individual's suppression due to aged-experience gap and concepts of age related subservience in institutional language.

After that I might do a degree in architecture so I can draw pictures of houses.






Nah, just kidding.

...about wasting my time on the architecture stuff.

Don't you find it unfair that the 'previously-referred-to-baby' does not get to choose its own designation? I think it only makes sense that they refrain from calling it anything other than "entity number 41331243214" until it gets to choose its own reference. (Clearly that number needs to change based on the number of entities already numbered.) Once they reach an age where they feel they can choose their own reference, the documentation can then be updated with this.

Also, you will find almost all will fall into the umbilical-liberated comrade category. Do you then discriminate based on age? Clearly that's a "no-no" or a "good on you for participating" situation.

I think reference numbers may be the way to go. There is no inbuilt linkage between one entity number or another, so there is no chance of hurting anyone's feelings at all.

... or we could just call everyone 'Steve'. It would cut down a lot of effort and there is no need to discuss gender/identity/number of years since they were born/architectural courses completed.

I would ask you what you think of my idea, but I don't want to force you to have to respond or to think about an answer well before you wanted to, so I won't. I hope that is okay with you.

Dude these kids are just that. Kids!

Oh, my mistake.
You sounded like an old person calling anyone who's younger than them by 5 years, a kid.

Get the sunnies for the older 'kids'

its not really something you want to see in a lecture, even if she is good looking.

Depends on how stern the lecture is and if spanking is involved.

So if I was to say "Lotofwind, he is funny" that'd be a big no no

Don't think you'll get any argument there.

Can't imagine that anyone on this entire flat planet thinks Loto is funny.


(or from any other planet, as they may chose to identify as originating from)

How are cleavage and the sun similar?

You can glance at both, but with sunglasses you can look a little longer..
