So, now SWMBO has chipped me for being inappropriate.
I often say, & admit I probably shouldn't, to our boys "Stop acting like a girl!"
SWMBO has informed me that this is no longer acceptable.
I have been instructed that "Stop acting like a Wuss. is OK.
I asked if "Stop acting like a soccer player." was OK.
SWMBO said that was fine as long as I clarified that Female soccer players were not included!
I have decided to just tell he to "Pull their heads in!".

Come on Jonesfam, be a MAN, if it is acceptable to say that, or you could say "stop acting like a gender neutral person"
The brain is a bit slow. Just had a thought. Perhaps we should say "Stop acting like a GNP"
Perhaps 'Person Of Neutral Gender', i.e. 'PONG' would be apt?Quote:

Words fail me. Reckon I might join OldGuy and live underground at Coober.
You will definitely be pinged for saying ponged. I am always non PC when talking to the kids just because it winds them up so much.Quote:
