How far do we go in pandering to these minority groups?

ESSENDON Football Club have announced they want to ditch traditional titles, and use gender neutral terms as a part of an effort to modernise the club and make it more inclusive.

There is obviously a strong push by the AFL, to be seen as general neutral and inclusive.

Surely then, this can not only be a token gesture, and just a bit of self promotion.

I should expect to see Gender Neutral toilets, in all AFL Grounds in the very near future.

They cannot be "Unisex", as that would be discriminatory, as it only is inclusive of two sexual gender types Male and Female.

And when we have these " Gender Neutral" toilets, and a 60 yo paedophile is found in there abusing an 8yo girl, lets hope they sue the AFL for all they have got.

No one has ever stated that they dont accept any person, whatever their race, gender, beliefs, upbringing, and in general, most Australians are tolerant, and accepting of others, but why is their this continual need for people to feel inadequate, in some way or form, to feel unaccepted, then everyone else needs to change and adapt to accept them, all because of their own insecurities.

That last paragraph of your hits the nail on the head .   Gender  Neutral is just so ridiculous .   You simply can not be neutral.  You are either one or the other, even if you have both sets of parts, you still choose to be a he or she. 
I for one do not want to walk into a public toilet and see some old fella there with it all out having a wee, thanks very much !!!  More so at a club where they have no doubt been on the booze and are blotto !
Having to subject a small child to that is even worse.
Things are getting crazier by the minute.

In reference to every post in the Trump thread ... "There may have been a tiny bit of license taken there" ... Ok, Thanks for the "heads up" PT!

Nice of you to venture down into the abyss Luva. We need more feminine input down here. Acacia, Second Chance & Whale are about it at the moment - with the odd dash of Gay 3 of course. Cheers

I'm with you Luva, I'm tolerant of everyone, except these divisive, gender-bender obsessed freaks - even Whale.

My theory on this is that these are a subsection of society, who were obviously bullied as children, and rather than being taught resilience, they have been taught that they are victims, and this is their "Revenge of the Nerds" ... you can pick them a mile off ... unsuccessful, unattractive, introverted sooks, and almost without exception ALP/Greens voting SJWs!

Meanwhile, as we gently descend from Dr E cloud cuckoo land, back in the real world:


"Essendon Football Club directors want to ditch traditional titles such as "chairman" and "deputy chairman" in favour of "president' and other gender-neutral terms as part of an effort to modernise the club and make it more inclusive.

Other recommendations to be voted on include a proposal to ditch postal mailouts in favour of email updates to cut costs and save paper.

Members have also been asked to consider a proposal to open up a board position which had formally been reserved for the club's executive officer.

More than 75 per cent of the votes cast by members must vote in favour of the changes for them to be passed."



Radical, man- far out.
An honest politician is one who when he is bought will stay bought.

Something 9 other clubs have already done before them. That should give a few in here some back-dated outrage to occupy themselves in those lonely pre-dawn hours.
