The local farm machinery dealer has a female mechanic, ex Army, and the
one I always ask to be given the job. No bullshit just does the job
quickly and well.

A motor factors near me employed only female drivers for a while, then a
few men applied for driving job. They were forced to change their policy
and now employ a mix.

I wonder how many men will start applying for job at this garage, and
fail, with the expected consequences?

[GB]

I did wonder whether it's illegal for them to refuse to take on a male
mechanic. They are probably too savvy to be caught by that, though. They
don't need to give a reason for rejecting him, after all.

There is a company called Lady cabs, which only has female drivers. I
can see a market need (or perceived need) for that, so maybe they can
reasonably discriminate in taking on drivers?

[Fredxx]

The only possible way out would be for each to be a director as
directors are posts and not necessarily direct employees. Even so, I
would say they were on thin ice.

[ARW]

I expect she does. There is no reason why she cannot be excellent at her
job.

Would it be ok if they are all biologically female, but half self

In my engineering days I knew a number of women engineers. I don’t recall
any mechanical ones* , all were either electronics, software, or systems. I
don’t remember any being even below average. Most were excellent.

Sometimes observations are just that. It's bit like observing that an
Afro-Caribbean is more likely to be in prison. Just because you don't
like facts doesn't mean they're not true.

> Being logical, must mean gay blokes are 'ugly' so can't get a woman?

Logic says they're more likely to be effeminate and shorter than
straight men:

I wasn't really joking though, Dave. I used to live in the, er, let's
just call it "bohemian" area of Berlin and there were a *lot* of gays
and lesbos around. LOADS. After a while you begin to notice patterns.
One of those patterns was that, far from the typical man's fantasy
idea of what a lesbian looks like, they're actually very masculine
(dare I say "butch"?) and very unattractive (to me anyway). It was as
if they were men born in the wrong bodies and had adapted their 'look'
to appear less feminine.

>Being logical, must mean gay blokes are 'ugly' so can't get a woman?

I was quite generously disposed to gays until I encountered them
unvarnished. They're actually not very pleasant people - not at all
like Mr. Humphries in Are You Being Served. Bitchy and spiteful I
would describe them - not all of 'em but an awful lot.

Quite, but doesn't prevent an employer specifying a female cleaner to
clean female toilets.

I've known lots of gay men who've been nice but only two that have been
nasty. However the nastiness of the two easily outweighed the niceness
of all the others! Mind you, they were a nasty pair, they really were.
Would have spoilt another couple.

I think in general that growing up and finding that you're in a
minority, and probably a persecuted minority at that, helps a person
develop compassion. In most cases.

I grew up in the NE, when mining and ship building still existed.
Fortunately, so did the 11 plus and grammar schools.

It was a considered normal for parents, where the father worked in the
local pit or shipyard, to want their children to go to the local grammar
school, hopefully university, and get a job that didn’t involve working
waist deep in water down a pit when the pumps failed*, breathing coal dust,
or in a shipyard in all weathers.

out under the sea. Even those that don’t often need to be constantly pumped

The tunnels are still there, full of water of course, surrounded by

Based on working and shopping in 10 different builders merchants,

Interesting comparison. The blacks more likely to be in prison as a
percentage of the population easy to verify. Just why, more difficult to
be certain. That lesbians only lesbians because they can't find a decent
man totally unprovable. Just a fairly typical comment from a man rather
unsure of their own sexuality.

I take it you didn't read the qualifications about this data given in the
report?

It was rather like selecting Tories and then asking how they vote.

Many years ago, I worked on a TV prog set in the Gateways club. At the
time a famous lesbian club, maybe most famous in the word. There were
obvious dykes, very 'femme' and just plain normal looking women in pretty
equal parts. And that was at a club. And impossible to say what percentage
of gay women ever go to such a place.

You must be remarkably unobservant if you think all lesbians are of the
'butch' variety. Anymore than all gay men are screaming queens. But that
doesn't surprise me, since you only ever look for 'facts' to support your
views.

Interesting. If you met a straight couple who were nasty, would you also

Nope. I'm relentlessly self-questioning about such things, Dave;
always have been.

Mr. Humphries was a highly likeable stereotype, though. The kind I'd
have stuck up for if he were being picked on in a train compartment
for example. Sadly there aren't many gays of that disposition
nowadays. They're far more 'in your face' now and can stick up for
themselves I'd imagine (and AFAIC they'll have to).

This last is a much-quoted fallacy. There's no connection between a
person's sureness about their sexuality and their tendency to be
critical of homosexuality. I'd imagine that such a tendency is more like
to correlate with religious or moral views.

I know some lesbians who are very attractive. Most however are what I'd
call 'passable', reasonable looking to a blind man on a galloping horse.

Sorry, I don't follow. Are you trying to imply some sort of

Again, you take my suggestion that a factor can influence a person's

Your logic is as usual flawed.

Yes. There's a tendency these days to think that a person's sexuality is
the be all and end all. In fact most of the gay people I know lead very
ordinary lives and their sexuality is irrelevant most of the time.

I remember hearing Scargill speak at a public meeting in St Austell, Cornwall
debating the pros and cons of the Nuclear Industry. He was up against our
local Tory M.P who seemed to have a very slight speech defect or hesitancy.
Scargill was a brilliant public speaker, the best I've ever heard.
And surely the Coal Industry along with ship building was killed off by a Tory
Government under the late un-lamented Margaret Thatcher.

No, Labour before her actually closed more coal mines.

And no politician killed off ship building, that was killed off
by the stupid unions who made it completely uncompetitive
with Japan and South Korea.

And Ed Milipedes 2008 Climate change act would have finished off
those that might have snuffled on (with subsidies) even if Mrs T
hadn't put them out of their misery.

The Japanese and South Koreans killed off the UK mass-market
ship building industry, not Mrs T. Just look at the utter
debacle of the Ferguson Yard in Glasgow where those two
Cal Mac ferries, being built, are years behind schedule and
about 3 times over budget.

[whisky-dave]

yes I was thinking along those line, it's not always easy to tell gay from straight
for any gender unless they are in a place they feel comfortable in.
Then there's those that want to make a statement of their sexuality.

An understandable reaction :-)

Then there's the first famous person who died from AIDs Rock Hudson,
sometimes I'm suprised to find a particual person is Gay. A month or so back
I found out that Richard Wilson who played Victor Meldrew is gay.
What does suprise me is how many footballers and rugby players I think are possibley gay
but won't come because it's not really accetable in their macho world.
Then there was my girlfiends friend in sweden who was the typical swedish blonde blue eyed,
I'd expect my girlfriend to be a bit jealous as her friend was chating to me, but was suprised
when she told me that she was a lesbian and a prostitute that only slept with men because it
didn't mean anything to her. I supose that makes sense when you think about it.
I know of a girl who has had a transgender op so is male and 'he' works as a stripper in a male gay strip club

I think there's so many differing views and points in sexuality but most people
only ever see the most basic sides

Yes. You stated the 'nastiness' of that couple outweighed the 'niceness'
of the others. Which means you must decide about a group of people as a
whole. Not as individuals.

Scattering around 'probably' and 'most' in such a way shows logic hasn't

Scargill was the 'subject' on a kids 'question time' I worked on. Fairly
undertandably, many of the questions the kids asked had been supplied by
their parents, etc. Or based on parent's views.

There was a possible fault with the recording, so it had to be checked on
another machine. Meaning a lengthy wait for all.

Scargill was very chatty off camera, and the kids asked their own
questions. Wish that had been recorded as it was far better than the
actual prog - and showed Scargill in a totally different light from his
meja one.

When I was at school, had a pal whose mother was a widow. Husband killed
at the end of WW2. Her sister lived with them. Both women worked as
teachers.

Many years later, the sister died. Only then did it become public she
wasn't her sister. Of course their relationship could have been platonic.

In the last year of my primary school in 1952 we had a woman teacher with
very short hair, wore a tweed jacket and a tie, smoked a pipe and rode a
motorbike. She had a 'friend' who worked in a local shop who looked
exactly the same. I can't understand why 2 women acting like men fancied
each other. I thought opposites attract?

It wasn't a question of practicality, they were both trying to look like

Come on Dave. She was teaching students. I could do that in a dress.

I said "I know some lesbians." I'm talking about people I know who are
lesbians.

If I don't know someone I'm not likely to know what their sexuality is.

There's no reason why we shouldn't generalise about groups of people. Or
form a general opinion about members of the group, as an average.

I had a 'bachelor' great aunt. Midwife to our family actually. WWI VAG,

'companion' of the female persuasion. Not unattractive and very
intelligent. Probably frightened all the Edwardian men to death...

As she sat down she said "would you like to come and see me", and handed me a flyer, with the words God, Jesus and church on it.
I said I don't believe in that. I believe in Captain Kirk, she said who's that I said in a suprised voice Capain James T kirk of the starship Enterprise.
She said I don't know who that is I'm lithuanian. I explained that captain kirk will be born in the future in 2233 and then go back in time to around 2000 years ago,
he'll meet this cute virgin called mary, she will asked him "what is this this called love" he'll show her, scotty will then have fixed the transporters
and beam him back up. It's just a basic temporal parodox where our past was created in our furture.
She then got up and sat next to someone else. :-(

Our male toilets don't have urinals, and just because you're a women doesn't mean you have to wear a long dress,
a nice little black number will be ok.
