Tories accuse Angela Raynor of "doing a Basic Instinct"

What's the right way, then?
Perhaps you could enlighten us ladies.

She is a revolting woman. Why would you sit in Parliament with your skirt nearly up to your knickers? Perhaps she hasn't the brains to be able to carry a position which requires a bit of a brain and intelligence, without degrading women by hoisting her skirt up to her backside.

But did the DM spell her name correctly, Nannee49?
It’s Rayner. With an E.

Aaaahh, Wong...

A bit of nominative determinism there, I think.

Or a windup...

I should imagine she has a fair bit of brains and intelligence, Wong.
Have you sat in parliament? (with or without your skirt hoisted)
No?
Didnt think so - that's why you're still getting barged out of the way on your commute to work.

Not sure what 'nominative determinism means in this context but you are obviously one of our liberated women friends who have their heads so far up their backside that they are ruining it for all us 'normal' women. This is google's definition, so what the **are you talking about or are you one of those women who think intellectual debate is a sign of higher intelligence above us who only have a 2:2 "the theory that people are psychologically predisposed to pursue occupations or interests that resemble or evoke their names in some way.
"if nominative determinism were foolproof, Rob Raven should rightly be working with birds".

Lets just say its a wind up if that makes your higher intellectual level more comfortable.

By the way I'm a deputy head. What do you do?

Well that escalated quickly.

Revolting woman. Will she stop at nothing?

... so you take it is truth then?

Even though the allegation is from from an un-named source - too cowardly to come forward. That's if it's even true.

With your high moral standards you must be appalled at Johnson who has children from affairs - one of which he conducted whilst his then wife was undergoing chemo for breast cancer... and installed his mistress into Downing Street prior to making a 'decent' woman of her.

Or is that different?

Wong.???

? Don't understand that.
Probably because I'm not a deputy head, I expect.

Ooh, I must retire to my chaise and put a cold flannel on my head!

I'm still over dosing on smelling salts whilst sipping on a light sherry ...!!

But is it up her backside? Or just that she has crossed her legs and her skirt is resting on them? Not sure how she sits has much to do with her brains really!

I mean, lets consider all those men with their splayed legs, (regularly seen in Parliament, on the tube trains, offices, anywhere you like to look (if you do!) crotches in full parade, and quite often decidedly lumpy ...which may or not be because of the type of underpants they wear!! Are they "degrading men", expressing their "personality", "playing a power game", being "revolting men" or ....?? Any suggestions?

Well really!
Lumpy crotches now!!!
My delicate sensibilities can't take much more!

Lumpy crotches made me laugh. I am easily pleased.

We need more mps who have the decency to keep their lumpy bits to themselves, like Mr. Snooze Mogg , pictured here, displaying his intelligence and enthusiasm.

I have my own head

Witzend...apologies already made for typo page 4 upthread.

My eyes glazed over ....
Good thing I'm going to have an eye test tomorrow ?

I don't know what normative determinism is.
Should I pull me slax up over me knees and hope nobody realises?

Get a life ladies!!! Life is difficult and unfair. Just get on with it. I'm fed up with women complaining. Instead of complaining, get on with life, prove your worth and we'll all get there. Do I mind not getting a seat on a train and being pushed out of the way rushing for the train, being abused etc etc. just because a group of women want to be equal to men. Don't you get it? We are equal as human beings, we just have to prove our equality in other ways. If we are as strong and equal as we think, this shouldn't be a problem. Unfortunately, I'm old school and want to be feminine and a total female but if I do it correctly I can have the other benefits men have if I go the right way about it.

Your comments make little sense.

You are fed up with women complaining so I assume you think they should just suck it up when they are falsely accused of using their sexuality as a lure? Is that what 'getting on with it' means?

And what "other ways" do you think we should use to prove our equality?

And what, in God's name, is a "total female" - and how are we supposed to "do this correctly" to have the other benefits men have?

Do you even know what you are talking about?
