Well, I wasn't going to post on this thread anymore, because I'm still sulking about you carding me. But seeing as you're using me as an example;

cp forever was ranting about sexist attitudes on here in response to a serious harassment issue. My comment, maybe ill-judged in hindsight, was meant to be a deliberately sexist remark , ironically confirming what the poster was accusing. It was not meant to cause offence to anyone, particularly not the poster to whom I was replying.

Would it have made a difference if I had stuck a smiley on the end? Probably not, because as others have pointed out, there are people out there who just can't wait to be offended by stuff so they can jump up and down being jolly cross about the injustice of it all.

Anyway, I agree that somewhere there is a line where banter becomes abusive, but the position of that line is determined by the perception of each individual; so basically nobody can ever know where it is.

Peace.

Anyway back on track (kind of), a woman bent over in front of me the other day revealing her boobs and nips, she did it a 2nd time just to make sure I got a good look.

Made my day it did.

Why am I imagining Gareth Thomas reading this post for an upskirt documentary .

I'm intrigued by the pervy airshow comment. A woman wing walking and then her bra flies off and you get your camera out?

I think surprised is the word you are looking for.

It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses.

I remember AJ's Shorts posting on here once and it was clearly Rag Week. I managed to slip in one of my favourite gags:

What's Angry and rides through the streets of South London?
AJ's Shorts on her menstrual cycle!

I've always been concerned/suspicious about people who are easily offended - usually Charlie Church types who are offended by everything.

Worse still are those offended on others behalf.

I'm normally very bantery and usually assume everyone else is.... which sometimes leads to some awkward situations but then again life's a bit too short to worry about over sensitive types.

You fed me, you bred me, I'll remember your name.

Nail on head for me Pikey old chap. Being offended on someone else's behalf I think is quite a dangerous activity. You can end up causing resentment against a person or group who never wanted to impose restrictions on you in the first place. If I directly offend a person I'm much more likely to apologise than if someone goes "ooo, don't say that about them, that's XXXXist or XXXXphobic"
