This would be the majority that voted for the council in the first place, and the majority who can see their elected councillors wasting time, money and effort on this type of nonsense.<br /><br />Sensible people realise and accept that we live in a world of two genders. People are addressed by their titles and in most cases insist on being so addressed.<br />I would also imagine that the small number of individuals that have ‘changed’ their sex would be delighted to be recognised as, and be called Sir, Miss or Madam if that title is specific to their newly acquired gender.<br /><br />At school, teachers are either Sir or Miss. The police and other officials would be addressed similarly. If you were in court you would be expected to address a magistrate or judge by his or her gender specific title.<br /><br />If a few oddballs in Brighton feel uncomfortable with having to specify what gender they are on forms, so what? <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377446.post-75631020181109201832012-10-31T08:26:19.459+00:002012-10-31T08:26:19.459+00:00I see the Cultural Marxists are still at it with r...I see the Cultural Marxists are still at it with renewed vigour!<br />"Destroy the family and you destroy society" I.V. Lenin I think.<br /><br />What always irritates and/or amuses me is WHY do homosexuals of all varieties (and even those not invented yet) define themselves only in terms of their sexuality? Do they do nothing else? Do they work?<br />I would feel silly defining myself when asked "What do you do?", to respond with " Well I'm a hetrosexual female who has had a couple of lesbian relationships in the past" So what?

Well, as a journo, i spoke with Brighton Council last week, who confirmed that there was neither plan nor proposal on the table to ban anything.<br /><br />There was a recent survey which asked the local trans community about significant issues and this came up with issues like violence on the streets, discrimination at work and in housing, as well as this rather more minor point: which is that if you don't adhere to the "gender binary" you're going to have difficulty with online forms that make using a gendered title compulsory.<br /><br />Now sensible peeps, like myself, might imagine that the council's next step would be to consider possible solutions and the simplest solution would be to make that field optional.<br /><br />But for some reason, a lot of daft people, including most national tabloids, just jumped on the bandwagon assumption that the only possible response the council might come up with would be to BAN some titles.<br /><br />Why? I mean why would people be so daft as to only be able to imagine that solution?<br /><br />Tis beyond me...<br /><br />janeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377446.post-3793705934931648452012-10-30T15:38:23.444+00:002012-10-30T15:38:23.444+00:00"Why is Mr on my debit card, for instance?

This...Dear Mr Frost,<br /><br />It is a well deserved award.<br /><br />This is another example of the cultural Marxism that infests so many of our public bodies.<br /><br />What is amusing however, is that when one of these people that wish to be titleless or genderless commit an offence or are sectioned, they will be placed in an institution that is gender specific: ie a male prison, if they're male or a female prison, if they're female and this classification is as per their birth certificate. They will be put on gender specific wards in a psychiatric hospital if they're sectioned.<br /><br />I am glad that Brighton and Hove is a true green utopia for you Ken.<br /><br />Regards<br /><br />Mr Tonk.Tonk.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377446.post-16175126688150272332012-10-30T11:50:10.723+00:002012-10-30T11:50:10.723+00:00When you think about it there are lots of out-date...When you think about it there are lots of out-dated titles knocking around; like Sir, Dame, Lord and Baroness for instance; but I bet that none of the Brighton & Hove councillors would turn down the opportunity to add one of those titles to their own names, and they would soon forget the ‘gender’ implications of doing so too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377446.post-61745558492371949352012-10-30T11:36:05.983+00:002012-10-30T11:36:05.983+00:00Brighton is Green Party "perfection" my ...Brighton is Green Party "perfection" my Lord, absolutely no issues here at all;)Ken Frosthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13568488818950912374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377446.post-32413133445879193502012-10-30T11:34:51.616+00:002012-10-30T11:34:51.616+00:00I saw this in the paper, and thought this was your...I saw this in the paper, and thought this was your own local authority, Ken. I don't know about you, but I am sick and tired of this politically correct nonsense, and the way society panders to minorities in this manner. I am sure, Ken, as a council tax payer in this area, you are most happy to learn that the money the council takes from you is being spent so wisely. Would I be correct in believing that there are no real problems troubling the residents of Brighton and Hove, and that the budget is managed so well that there has been no necessity to cut spending on front line public services as has happened elsewhere?Lord of Atlantisnoreply@blogger.com
