Well, the fact that straight men sometimes pick them up by accident without knowing they are ladyboys tells you that some of them are attractive to straight men. Obviously picking them up knowing they are Ladyboys is different, but since gay men never do that I believe it is a straight thing. If they were gay, why not just pick up a "normal" gay bloke? It's not like there's a stigma to that. It's probably because they are not attracted to "normal" gay blokes, because they are straight. Again, I am prepared to be corrected by one of the gay forum members if they like Ladyboys. But every gay bloke I've spoken to finds them very unattractive and wouldn't even consider going with one. Why? Because they look like women whereas they are attracted to men.

Whilst it's certainly not for me (I'm straight) and frankly I avoid them like the plague, any gay man will tell you that attraction to Ladyboys is a straight thing. I've never known a gay man who likes them. I've met quite a few straight blokes who have a dabble now and then. One of them was engaged to a very cute American girl and was basically what some would refer to as a Chad. Maybe some of the gay forum members could confirm?

It's partly that I believe. Which is a good thing. It's also become quite fashionable to be LGBTQ++. Young people love to be the centre of attention and annoy their parents and declaring they are Genderqueer/two spirt or whatever the latest thing is probably achieves both of those goals. Look at meeeeeeee, I'm so special. They can always change back next year when it's no longer at the forefront of fashion, assuming they haven't removed body parts of course.

I'd imagine they found it very awkward. I'm not surprised she was confused, she probably didn't want to talk to you about it. I certainly wouldn't have wanted to talk to my GrandParents about sexuality when I was 18. It's a bit cringe.

That's because he's not very bright. Yes his status as grandson of the Queen would have opened many doors for him. I'm not sure using military helicopters to order (and then call off) a hit on the then Prince of Wales could be described as "doing well" though. I'm not sure how good he is as a husband and father. He's certainly a terrible son, brother and grandson. The bullying of the matron at school suggests he wasn't a very nice child either.

P.T. Barnum probably wasn't an expert on social media. Times have changed. This couple are taking an absolute hammering. I'd actually feel sorry for them if they weren't so divisive, hypocritical and vicious.

Genius indeed.

I thought it was funny. Not laugh out loud type funny, more of a cringe induced giggle as you watch it through your fingers thinking "I can't believe they've done that". The World Wide Privacy Tour ????. They just nailed it in every possible way. Absolutely brutal the way they surgically dissected the hypocrisy and ridiculousness of the couple. Brilliantly done.

Great news. Let her spend the rest of her days in a cave in Syria somewhere. The UK could do without such revolting characters sullying it's shores. Good riddance.

Given that the unborn baby was present during the murder and did nothing to prevent it, surely it should stay in jail under the doctrine of joint enterprise? That wasn't a serious point by the way, before anyone starts asking for links to cases setting such a precedent ????.

Wise move. They wouldn't have won and it would have kept the story in the news for months. The episode was comedic genius. The bit where he opened her head and shouted down, only to hear echos from the vast vacuum within. Absolutely brutal ????.

I beg to differ. I'm pretty sure the family will be more concerned with what happened to Nicola than worrying about some TikTok'er trespassing on someone's back garden.

I think the police/courts have more important issues to attend to than someone walking through someone else's garden ????. Maybe their efforts would be better spent finding out what happened to Nicola?

Prosecuted for what crime? Hanging around a public place taking photos?

It isn't racist to tease a cult hero about his choice of meat. Just like teasing a Scotsman about eating haggis in Scotland isn't racist against the Caucasian race. You'd cry racist if someone asked their Irish pal if he wanted a pint of Guinness ????.

Yes I can. A bit of light hearted teasing/banter with one of your own players (that the fans pretty much worship) is far less serious than a slur that tarnishes a whole group of people such as the fine upstanding people of Liverpool. Great point. Thanks for pointing that out.

It's deeply offensive to Scousers as well. I'm going to guess you're not so concerned about that though.

It would appear that anything short of skipping down the road in gender neutral rainbow attire, sporting pink dreadlocks and screaming "Racist" at random passers by is deemed "far right" now ????. Many places are governed at least partially according to religious beliefs/values. Try getting a beer in a Gogo bar on Makha Bucha day in Thailand, for example. Or listen to Prayut spouting off about Buddhist precepts.

Punctured tubeless tyres are much easier to fix, no need to remove the wheel/tyre, a 2 minute job. Also seems to happen much less often with tubeless.

If minors want to dress like the opposite gender, boys wearing skirts, makeup etc. then they are free to do so. But allowing them to make permanent, life changing modifications to their bodies before they've stopped developing mentally is deeply irresponsible IMO. So they can't drink, can't get a tattoo, can't vote but they can get their breasts/penis removed? Nah, that's ridiculous.

Good move. Minors should be prevented from making life changing changes to their bodies before their mind has fully matured. https://nypost.com/2022/06/18/detransitioned-teens-explain-why-they-regret-changing-genders/

Same as Prayut was only going to be there 6 months? ???? Fool me once...

It was an analogy. I didn't mean they literally set them on fire. Jeez ????. Now, shouldn't you get back to cancelling everything you personally disagree with?

It's a mag wheel.

I'm replacing the very old tyres and tubes on my very old Nouvo MX that I occasionally use on the farm. When I removed the old tyres and tubes, the rims look like they can take tubeless tyres. Anyone know for sure? The research I've done looks like they can. Here is a cross section of the rim. There is only one hole in the rim for the valve. Here is a diagram that leads me to believe the rims can accept tubeless hookless tyres. Anyone know for sure?
