    Default They walk amongst us at the highest level

    Today is Armed Forces Day in the UK.
    The army is issuing new guidelines on diversity,
    Riflemen, infantryman are terms not to be used anymore, presume they will be called rifle personal or something
    The word Sir, when addressing a senior is not to be used, presume heyyou is not acceptable.
    Education
    Schools can no longer have head girls, or boy's, just head of school
    Students are now learners
    Where will it all end?

    As a non specific person who came from a gestational parent and was chest fed I am not sure.

    There is however a non gestational junior down the road who may have the answer to your question.

    But as the question is related to non specific person that person of non specific gender may not be able to answer as questions of that nature come under the WOKE heading, so when you woke up to that then you will be able to ask the question/

    Is that clear, no I thought not!!!!!
    Happy daze John in Oz.

    Evolution is the idea that living things change from generation to generation, with features that favour survival. The present attempts of these weird groups of people to alter the natural progress of life such as sex changes etc etc. is going to have a profound affect on future generations . Humankind today is nothing to boast of , in this so called enlightened times , and I think the highest level as the title of this post , they should be the first to go , if they cant control these minority groups. Then get out and let others do what they cant. We see in our news today that China has arrested newspaper editors in H.K. for news items against the state or words to that effect, maybe they have a better reason for doing this than we are lead to believe by the other media who will be supporting them. I never even knew what the woke was until told on here, but all they are going to do is promote further unrest which is not required in the world today. Cheers JS

    #5.. John any girl with the surname Nicholas at the school I went to was in for a hard time. Every boy must have known the standard joke and warned her not to climb trees. Today that would be classed as criminal intent I suppose , funny how we all survived these traumatising experiences .Cheers JS.

    Post Re: They walk amongst us at the highest level ..... Wokes and Karens !

    Same here John.Until the 2020's i always thought 'Woke' was when one's precious warm sleep was interrupted when put on the shake at 0500 for standby on an icy winter's morning.
    It is not a nice word either-,the letter 'k' in it does it no favours,k' being a hard whingeing sound redolent of a protesting,pouting,defiant recalcritant etc teenager- "Aw no,you woke me up.Aw no" -a Kevin,in fact(yet another K !). .In my opinion it really does deserve it's contemptuous connotation. Statue-topplers are a good example.

    Another new word is --- a 'Karen'. I'm in two camps about this one because I have known quite a few Karens and they were/are all perfectly lovely ladies..I don't think this time it's the inclusion of the letter 'k' which detracts from the name.Au contraire I think it's because it's the forceful initial letter of that name that makes the bearer coming across as a no-nonsense attractive sort of woman. I've digressed again,but a Karen is.......'a pejorative name for a white middle-class American suburban housewife with a side-bob hairstyle usually ,who seemingly thinks she is entitled to favourable treatment,e,g." I demand to see the manager!" the term was increasingly being used in media and on social media as a general-purpose term for middle class and usually middle-aged ,offensive,angry,,sexist,misogynistic,often racist White women,who like to police other people's behaviour. especially during the Covid 19 pandemic and Black Lives Matter protests . The term has also been applied to male behavior. The Guardian called 2020" the Year of the Karen"

    So American yes,but she will coming to a country near you soon if not already arrived ! And definitely online as there are no boundaries there!

    Cheers!
