Has the world gone PC mad (part 2)
30 Answers
Isn't it amazing, not only does this ruddy Muslim get to not serve alcohol in a supermarket (just like the under 18 year olds) but (and this really makes me mad):
If I were to employ a woman, she would be able to just leave her job if she got pregnant. And she would have the right to return to her job in 12 months time. If I didn't provide her with a job she would be able to sue me. Men don't get that right.
I tell you - it's PC gone mad. Its the end of Great Britain as we know it. Bring back the corsets and the regular beatings. blah blah blah, muslim, muslim, muslim, asylum seeker, paedophile, muslim, ad lib to fade.

Personally I think we should drop the Great, how can a country have any pride when the PC brigade have taken over. I have included some well sourced (well they were on the net in print) references to conclusively prove my point
"We must not forget the main destroyer of our society... the 'political correct' brigade".
"Office Christmas parties face the axe after the Government's industrial relations watchdog warned bosses they face being sued for a raft of "politically correct" misdemeanours".

Oh for crying out loud!
Everyone agrees vic.
Even the rest of the mulim community.
Ghayasuddin Siddiqui, director of the Muslim Institute and leader of the Muslim parliament, said: �This is some kind of overenthusiasm. One expects professional behaviour from people working in a professional capacity and this shows a lack of maturity.
There is no PC conspiracy here

I see what you are saying vic, but being unable to perform the regular duties of a post for whatever reason, should surely stop you from applying was the point I was trying to make. If a woman applies for a job just in order to take advantage of the maternity pay I think that is wrong as well, however, the country would not survive if women did not have babies and until their partners - if they exist are paid enough to support their families, women will be needed as part of the workforce whether they like it or not. It is a completely different argument.

Look - there's a simple answer to this.
Young people don't know what PC is.
They just get on with each other.
People over 30 who have a problem with respecting other people...well, we'll all die out - like dinosaurs, and it won't be an issue.
Was the Britain of the 70s the same as the Britain of the 20?
Was the Britain of the 90s the same as the Britain of the 50s?
No...people change. Outdated attitudes get replaced.
PC is brilliant.
All those who are 'anti-PC' are wrong.
There...I'm sure that settles it.
Surely?

Sir, that's poppycock.
If you were a woman working in an office in the mid 70s, do you really think that you'd receive the respect and career opportunities that women enjoy today?
Seriously?
I remember the 70s quite well, and it was very 'bottom slappy'.
The olden days were brilliant if you had testicles. Not so good if you didn't have testes...or if your testes were brown/black/not from round 'ere.
We're living in a society where old fashioned attitudes still exist, but like smoking/spitting/going out without deodorant on, old fashioned attitudes are frowned on.
That just seems brilliant to me.

Of course you can wear your corset.
As long as it doesn't have conical bra bits. Only My Good Lady is allowed to wear that one.
Raggy...I've been thinking...
I think the big problem is that we're now living in a transitional period. There are those people (mainly older) who would prefer a world where PC didn't exist, and a younger generation who have been brought up with it, and don't have a problem with PC (which I think should shand for stands for 'politeness and consideration').

Actually, in our place, bloke get paternity leave - but it only lasts a couple of weeks.
But in addition to that, they also get to stay at home one day a week until the child is five years old.
I'm totally in two minds about this.
On the one hand I think it's a brilliant idea, helping fathers form a better bond with their kids...but I think it's absolutely outrageous that I don't get one day off a week so I can sit at home and think about Kylie.
Seriously - the maternity leave thing is fair in a way, but you'd have to look at it more broadly.
Maternity leave is good for children, good for families, good for communities and the country in general.
No government in it's right mind is going to introduce laws curtailing maternity leave because no politician is brave enough to be considered 'anti family'.

From what I understand, in Denmark, parents can 'share' maternity leave - they BOTH have 3 months leave to start with and then they have a further 3 months to divvy up as they see fit.
This of course means that they don't have the same type of discrimination as we have in the workplace (there are very few small employers who will employ women of child bearing age in this country for obvious reasons).
Seems fair to me
