He'll start one soon to find out which hand you hold your fork in. Then another to ask do you put your left shoe on first or your right shoe. Got to keep those topic starter stats up.

It'll have an angry title though. 'Some right-forkers out there', or something.

Thought this was a piss-take thread at first. Absolute load of shite, belongs in the bin. Sorry, I mean bin.

C'mon Tepid, get off your high horse. People disagree with you, and you know they are good people with good intentions (mostly anyway

)

You started a post telling other people should speak about women, based on how you feel, and how you think women probably feel, without any consideration for different cultures, how people in different parts of the country and world converse with each other, and seemingly without really asking women.

There's nothing disturbing about it.

I asked the girlfriend her opinion. She said to get a grip if you think this is offensive.

I find it bizarre that people actually discuss shite like this. Mentioned it earlier but if this was real life I’d swerve the fuck out of anyone involved in that convo. It’s fucking bizarre to me

I don’t hardly watch tv but I’ve seen bits and It’s the sorta shit discussed on loose women.

Join us next week as we talk to Kerry Katona on her decision to get Botox in her tits and finally finding Mr Right after her 18th marriage

I am female - I don't particularly like the term "the wife". I absolutely hate the term "bird" for females and find that offensive.

Finally! I’m the woke one…

Genuinely though, it boils my loss every time I hear it. My wife? Ok, that distinguishes her another persons wife. “The” wife…. Urgh …
Genuinely a bit shocked by the response to be totally honest.

You probably won’t find a more “woke” intersectional feminist and general do-gooder than me and this thread is cringe and tryhard. Sorry!

For context, I love in the south east.

The people who use the phrase “the wife” here are Tory golf/rugby club middle types who weigh their wives once a month (and this genuinely happens).

Maybe I’m influenced by their use of it?

They certainly use it in a derogatory manner, so I’m happy to be in a minority of one. I still think I’m right.

It sounds like 'fixing' the language used is just putting a sticky plaster on a wider issue.

I thought that 'clubbable' set would refer to the 'Ladywife' or 'She who must be obeyed'. 'The wife' sounds a bit - Northern?
