There is a special column open for women and other entities for their particular assertions so why is Open Mike flooded with input on identity politics? Do a large number of such people want to take over NZ/the western world and impose their authoritarian ...
And this from Ian Powell, thoughtful as most of his items are: https://www.scoop.co.nz/stories/HL2107/S00051/boris-the-barbaric-threatens-more-than-the-uk.htm
I have just read a book by Anne Perry set around rape of women and the difficulties of them at that time, in the 1890s, being safe from it, and being able to look for control and justice. because of the deep disgust felt by everybody in society about it, ...

How big business screws NZ. Villa Maria a successful winery is for some reason going belly up for $200 million, approx. owing to banks, the tax dept and sundry creditors not mentioned. Never mind there is always some overseas buyer that will take our ...
I'm just expressing general ignorance Ad I don't know everything as you do.
Interesting discussion about that tentative film on the mosque shootings and PM Ardern's response, or so i thought. https://phuulishfellow.wordpress.com/2021/07/17/weaponising-they-are-us-the-draft-script/ (Sounds as if a reviewer might dub it 'the daft ...
I don't understand the various fluid methods of stopping discussion for some reason that is then counted as something negative because it is criticism. SR is something new to me also. Here is what I found on google about what its meaning probably is. ...

When will government be able to take control over the country again, and ensure that their policies are being carried out well, in a timely fashion, and wield some stick? This business of contracting out of the job is getting to be a farce. Government ...
Molly good sense as usual. That accommodation thing would be important - have to hold on to what you have, then there is travel and maintaining family duties so back and forth. Moaning should become a key subject for students in NZ, something we are good ...
edit 'Ecological change can only come about through empowering women and understanding that they are key. There can be no ecological revolution without a feminist one. The exploitation of female bodies is intrinsically tied to late capitalism which ravages...
And thanks Anker for persisting in being a balanced, thoughtful commenter in everything you do. A good example to me.
Will we have more or less of this? Are various women to be used as a learning module in what women's bodies look like under their clothes? Can we please for the sake of a better balanced society have better sex education that actually shows people's bodies...

I liked their pretty blue twactors. Rolling, rolling, rolling, keep them dogies rolling - Rawhide!
Well I'll eat less and hold in for a day if you will Cricklewood.
About five huge tractors in a line, washed and looking as if they are out for a run to town. All seem the same type - a chance for a dealer to display his wares? They don't look like the impoverished farmers that they have come in to complain about. https...
I'm not debating about the matter of being able to assign one's chosen gender at will on a birth certificate and legally assume that gender, because it isn't open for debate in my view. and SUFW (Stand Up for Women) is not a TERF organisation I am told. ...
With that late change made to the Bill, the Green Party’s Dr Elizabeth Karekare came out in March in full support of it: The current process for changing gender markers on birth certificates is full of unnecessary and discriminatory barriers. This ...
SPC Once upon a time, safe women's spaces meant places where no one could be openly lesbian because other females might be sexually insecure. What would be involved by being open lesbian? Holding hands, kissing each other, for instance? That surely would ...
Sacha 12.48 It is exactly the same as the official transition from Race to Ethnicity. It definitely is not. And I see it is impossible for you to stop your antagonism about it.
I don't know how this works in but I respect James Morris wish to change to woman Jan Morris from fully functioning man. He took the hormones, had the op, went through the whole thing after a lot of genuine thought, and was one of the early changers. Also ...

We create our own cultures SPC, or have them forced on us despite our wishes or expectations. So our experience of 'humanity' is always affected by the current beliefs and practices. But as you say it always starts with a woman giving birth, and preparing ...

pat you are 90% brilliant. (Nobody's perfect, and the small failure may itself allow an interesting and useful weed to get rooted and actually grow to a worthwhile end.)
This sex stuff is actually an attack on humanity and goes beyond correcting imbalances that have long existed between men and women. It combines so many doubts and uncertainties and losses through tech and piratical adventuring including wars, it has gone ...
latifundia - a large landed estate or ranch in ancient Rome or more recently in Spain or Latin America, typically worked by peasants or slaves. Interesting word Sanctuary. And it is my view that is the direction we are going in here in all of NZ. We aren't...
