OK. How about "safe, legal and SECONDARY TO BIRTH CONTROL?"


I realise some here don't like the idea of the opposition being given control over language, but I think if the phrase in the title of this thread is what we actually believe, that's what we should say.

Women helmed the three most exuberantly prosperous and enlightened eras of my nation.


Elizabeth I
Victoria
Elizabeth II

The UK prefers a a queen over a king any day. I don't know why. We just to seem to feel at our proudest and best when there is an impressive lady representing us.

I'm not sure if the same thing would apply in a democracy, however...?

If, by now, it is not *crystal clear* who belongs on your ignore list...


Just look at the front page of GD.

I strongly advise the avoidance of the "I have no-one on my ignore list" policy. The magnanimity of those of you who adhere to this strategy is not reciprocated.
