what woman would willingly date a bi male

It is extremely strange how dedicated the media in a certain city is to pushing this.

"Dying with dignity" is a euphemism for "dying without becoming disabled."

Yeah, I remember when racism raped a woman to death on a park bench in Southall.

I don’t get it. If Hezbollah had flats in this block (unlikely in central Beirut but not impossible) why did the Israelis give everyone inside an hour to get out — including those they wanted to kill? And if there weren’t any Hezbollah people there, why destroy a building with dozens of civilians in it?

Gail’s bags - emblazoned with the words ‘a small act of petty symbolism’ (what Guardian writer Jonathan Liew called a Gail’s having its windows smashed in) are left outside the Guardian’s office. How very ‘heavy handed high street aggression’.

I was trying to explain to someone yesterday why women defend single-sex spaces. “Imagine you were forced into an enclosed space with a strange man and told to take your top off in front of him. No choice. No opting out.” “That’s different,” they said. “That’s basically sexual assault.” “Exactly,” I replied. “Now imagine the man is wearing women’s clothes - but you still know he’s a man.” You could literally see the penny drop. This is the grown-up version of being plied with cider at a party, shoved into a cupboard with a boy - then being told you’re frigid if you don’t do what he wants. Only now, frigid has been replaced with bigot.

Trip hop has aged incredibly well. Portishead, Tricky and Massive Attack sound great today. Name any other niche time specific genre that doesn't sound embarrassing and clunky 20 or 30 years after its heyday.
