    WOKE, or should I say whoa!!
    At a meeting yesterday all about the correct use of 'pronouns' with regards to the QUIT what ever lot.
    In our time at sea knows lovingly as queers, the word gay had not yet been invented for them.

    The following quote is on the paper we were given.

    Gender dysphobia is the distress or discomfort that may occur when a person's sex assigned at birth does not align with their gender'????????????

    Well shiver me timbers mates, there I was thinking that gender was a choice of two, male or female.
    I thought depending on which bit you were born with determined your gender, not any more!!!!!!!!!!!


    I would point out Marion that your first version of the Kingston Trio had four in it.
    Which goes to show four can be three in the new WOKE world,
    Happy daze John in Oz.

    Early times suggest Dandy, someone stylish and fashionable. A man who takes great care with his clothing and general appearance,
    bit before coming out of the closet became the norm.

    The word gay arrived in English during the 12th century from Old French gai, most likely deriving ultimately from a Germanic source.

    In English, the word's primary meaning was "joyful", "carefree", "bright and showy", and the word was very commonly used with this meaning in speech and literature. For example, the optimistic 1890s are still often referred to as the Gay Nineties.
