Vaginal Knitting!!! ??

Has there been a reality knitting show yet?

The Great British Cast Off with a showstopper challenge?

I wonder if this would catch on in group knitting circles

I am actually loving this thread but, with my problem 'down below', it just makes me want to scratch - especially at the mention of mohair etc! I know TMI

Kittylester & all who dislike this thread: I recommend you read, as a cure all, "The Mirror Within" & "A Woman in Your Own Right" by Anne Dickson. You should have been in Bath in the 1980s - Dickson's suggestions were all the rage there then. I wonder if she's on GN - about the right age now?

....or mould....

Green mohair would look like fungus....

Could they just sit in a circle behind each other crocheting one anothers hairy backs? You could entitle it "Bonding" or "You scratch my back . . ."

Now that would be transgressional. Or tranggressive. Or transaggressive. And definitely post modern: Bunch of hairy men sitting in a gallery with no clothes on for a couple of weeks, crocheting nice sets of genitalia in a variety of interesting yarns. Green mohair. Donegal unbleached wool. Alpaca. Lavender silk.
Now that has not been done before. Can I have my MA without actually setting this up? No? I'll be back when I have booked the gallery and found some suitably macho volunteers with hairy backs.

Don't tempt me, Nellie....

Love this thread! Thank you all!

Gadabout With men has to be crochet as they cannot hold a needle in each hand and where would they keep their balls to stop them from rolling all over the floor.

Do you think it could be cured by use of a canesten pessary?

Pin cushions?

Micelf: Brilliant academic treatise on knitting but in order to restore the gender balance I wish to instigate a learned discussion on the uses of male genitalia for knitting by repeating my previous comment which begins with B & ends with ks.

Galen - experienced in what though? Knitting? I'm sure you're a perfect elder flower who is very cordial.

Please, in the interests of people who suffer the same affliction as Nellie and I, could you please let this thread disappear.

I feel very uncomfortable each time I spot it!

When my sister and I were on a coach being driven down the 90 mile beach in NZ, our Maori driver referred to the 'elder ladies'. We looked around to see who they were, and then at each other when we realised he meant us. We took it as a great compliment. But we didn't get tattoos.

I think it is a dignified look

I already have a chin tattoo - it's called a dimple but guess I could embellish it with some kohl

I prefer the description 'experienced'!

such a difference galen between being an elder and elderly

I suppose it depends where you live Galen, whether you'd be considered transgressive or normative

Does this mean that now I'm elderly I should have a chin tattoo?

just thought of something transgressive that is perfect for women of a certain age - lipstick on the eyes and kohl on the lips. A kind of Pacific warrior look. (those gels look so cool with their black lippy)
I was showing my MIL photos of women with Mokus the other day (chin tattoos - a way of announcing to the world that you are a Maori elder). They would be transgressive around where I live...

I'm just startled!!
