That's not what I'm criticising you for though

It's so difficult for me to keep track, I get criticised a lot.

But I think it boils down to this - Women are angry that pictures of them eating food on the Tube have been put up on Facebook, they're responding to this by holding a protest on the Tube eating food. The consideration for other people and total lack of manners has been overlooked to make some sort of point about privacy and shaming. Bizarrely, when this protest does occur, the press will be invited to take pictures of women eating on the Tube and the pictures plastered all over the Internet.

Everyone is a dumb face.

As ever RCP who is saying these things to you.

I atleast have made it abundantly clear I don't want, eating or protests of any description on the tube.

So you've lumped me in with a group I want nothing to do with.

You do realise that seeing the world as an amorphous mass and you as the only unique individual, is on the symptons lists for a wide range of psychiatric illnesses.

The reason the group targeted women was because it is still socially unacceptable for women to be seen to be "out of control" when it comes to food.

It is why we have size zero models, secret binge eating and "all you can eat" competitions populated almost entirely by men.

Eating is somehow seen as unfeminine and eating in a public place is the very epitome of that.

You haven't looked at the group, RCP, but I have. The majority of the people posting and commenting are men. The comments are entirely negative - they either openly make fun of the woman or make inappropriate comments about what she is wearing or the way she is eating (the banana girl got the worst of all).

I don't think society views women eating as socially unacceptable. The fact the Facebook group only had 14,000 members goes to prove that point. By extrapolating the argument that minority Facebook pages reflect the norm, then everyone was in favour of the London Riots and Raoul Moat's cop killing antics.

Similarly, eating in a public place is not seen as unfeminine, eating in an enclosed public space is rude and inconsiderate for both men and women - try eating a McDonalds in church or a curry in the Men's toilets at Euston Station.

There is pressure on everyone to be thin, but as women don't like exercising much, they go the lazy starving route - 'food is a feminist' issue could also be called 'not going down the gym is a feminist issue'. Women also judge people by their looks more then men and are hyper critical.

On the plus side, I like the way these future protests are going - I don't want pictures of me eating on the Tube being put on the Internet, so I'm going to protest by letting people take pictures of me on the Tube eating food. I wonder if Caroline Lucas will be getting her baps out for Page 3?

Yes absolutely.

Some bint was eating a curry, a f**king curry with a f**king spoon on the tube the other day.

If I photographed her it would be to suggest keep away from her. A woman who eats a curry on a tube is capable of anything, anything I tell you.

I think people who eat anything smelly or loud in public are pretty rude. But some person eating a sandwich and minding their own business, who cares?

:O

I can't believe we closed down the Magdalene Laundries. This jezebel needs to be stopped!

Ok sandwichs are ok, but not, tuna, egg, subway or similar.

People who eat boxes of fried chicken on buses or trains, should be abandoned somewhere they will never, ever bother the civilised world again.

I was annoyed God stopped turning such apparent women into pillars of salt.

People who eat burgers or fried chicken just make me jealous that I don't have a burger or fried chicken.

Really, I quite like the smell of Nandos at Kingscross where I catch the bus it's right under a Nandos and I swear they've got fans that blast out it's sweet chickeny perfume.

Watching program on benefit cap and a bit torn.
On the one it causes vast disruption and makes secure families insecure and homeless.
But on the flip side, paying commercial rates in the most expensive city in the world, for unemployed or minimum wage families. Especially for large families, was always going to be unaffordable long term.

I'd say there's way more pressure on women to be thin though. There just is. A lot more.

If anything there's pressure on men to not be thin. Skinny anyway.

Not according to the personal ads - just about every woman writes the exact same thing - seeking tall, slim, professional, generous man with GSOH.

So not only do you have to be underweight, you also need to have a good job, earn tons of cash and like spending it on the fat bint shoving Jaffa Cakes in her mush all day - that's where the GSOH comes in. Oh and don't be a short arse, chicks hate that. If you're short, fat and poor, just kill yourself*.

*Don't actually kill yourself, I don't want the blood of overweight, broke ass midgets on my hands...again!

Most of the one's I go for are;
none paedophile wanted to help bring up my 2 bastards....go on then paedophiles apply, but I get a shag on sunday
