2 AnswersSnow Skiing7 years agoFeminazis and diet coke?
I saw recently that some feminists or (Feminazis) were pushing to get magazines like FHM and loaded taken off the shelves at supermarkets and news agents and sold as porn only in porn shops.
Now reckon you have seen the diet coke advert on the TV where the bloke gets sprayed by diet coke as takes his t-shirt off. my question is is that not objectifying men as the Feminazis say men's lifestyle magazines objectify women if they can have that surely if they want equal rights we should be able to have FHM because lets face it we cant avoid an advert on TV as easily as you can just not look at a magazine on a shelf.

1 AnswerSoftware8 years agoSchool punishments fighting?
I recently saw a video from an Australian school of a kid up against a wall while this other kid kept on pummeling him after a bit of this the kid up against the wall snaps picks up the aggressor and throws him to the ground. It turned out both of the kids got suspended.
This got me thinking when I was in school (many years ago now) attacked and had to defend my self why was i punished and not the guy that attacked me and why was the guy who had to defend himself in the video suspended as well as the guy who attacked him I'm sure acting in self defense is not against the law as long as you use reasonable not excessive force
So why many years ago was I punished and why was the victim in this video punished?
1 AnswerPrimary & Secondary Education8 years agowhy would you commute touni?
I have seen on some forums people saying oh I'll live at home for uni and that's fine if you live a few mins away but these people ate looking at 2 hours each way that's 4 hours a day. 4 hours which could be spent studying. Also uni is not school I had a lecture in first year that ended at 8 so if I was travelling 2 hours I would have got back at about 10 pm (I stayed in halls I'm not stupid).
You also miss out on social bits like nights out bemuse how will you get back how will you bring a girl back you cant.
People say oh I'll save money well actually no you will spend more on train fares even with a rail card with a trip that long I mean when I visited home 1 hour away it cost me £13 magnesia doing that each day but it's double so lets say £26 a day so your spending £130 a week travling .
This is just the tip of the iceberg there are more things you'll miss out on too why can't people see this

My pick is Perez as long as McLaren can sort out their reliability and pit stop issues.

I saw on a film (I know their not that realistic but they are my only point of reference) based around the end of a school year lots of seniors are seen to ditch school (during the film) once they know they are going to graduate and have got in to uni. Does this actually happen or not. (in the UK we just have exams and then leave no graduation or anything)
3 AnswersPrimary & Secondary Education8 years agoshould uniform change?
Now I agree that being able to identify students from a school is a good thing for instance on a trip being able to keep track of the kids is important and uniform is good for that but why not update uniform a bit maybe a hoodie like you can bye if you are at university it's not scruffy and once they went on sale most people got one (you know because it was optional)
Do you think it should change or be updated in any way?
how?
