I would have thought contraception was secondary to finding a willing mating partner.

Do you have 8 kids?

I'd say you are from a working class background but are doing ok for yourself now. I did say it wasn't 100%.
But I bet you can guess mine with relative ease. And I can also bet the closest F1_Fan gets to a council estate is when he drops his rent boy home.

Well, I hear that most sensible males (in need or with a desire for willing mating partner) these days won't leave their house without being armed with condoms. Lynx in their armpits is secondary.

So what comes first? Condom. Then Lynx, then sex. Baby is optional.

With those sort of betting skills one can only wonder at the injustice of why you're not a professional gambler instead of a working clas 'hero'

I don't have the stake money .

But I don't read The Sun and I've never lived in a council house...

Feel free to give your interpretation of a modern class system.

Lydia72

I'm from Merseyside, a lot of people there won't read The Sun because of the lies they printed re Hillsborough.

I have never lived in a council house but for three or four years I lived in a hostel for homeless people.

Interpret that however you like

My grandad was an East end market trader, my dad got chucked out of (a grammar( school at 15 but did well as a bass player then ran his own business, I went to a pretty top selective school then a middling comp, I'm married to a girl who went to a comp then a posh school for sixth form, we both have a degree, I've done jobs from labouring to co-running a fairly successful business. I feel privileged to have gained a balanced view on society and could not give a cr4p what class I may fit into.

You're upper middle lower working class, but at least you aren't a a slag or a benefit scrounger

So your Dad took you from working class to middle class?.

To quote the Aviator...

Mrs. Hepburn: "We don't care about money here, Mr. Hughes."
Hughes: "You don't care about money because you've always had it.

This^ is quite good, to be fair.

No I haven't. I worked as a £5.50 an hour labourer for months in my 20s. I lived off £10 a week for a month at Uni and had NO help from my parents. I was on £10k a year in 2003 and struggled massively. I had a good two years of earning very little but I've never signed on. Maybe that's the "difference?" A strong work ethic and always working hard at whatever job?

My folks have very little money and will be utterly skint in retirement. I'm the only one in our immediate family (me and my two sisters) with an ounce of financial sense - the rest sometimes earn well but always spend beyond their means.

I do speak a bit posh though

I'm every class invented I think. In that survey that went around a while back, we came out as "Elite" just because we've saved a bit (I think)…Shows how shallow "class" is.

Why do people worry about it?

Turbohot

I don't.

I've seen some right scums in so-called upper-upper class, some very upper and under-class in so-believed middle class, and very middle class in so-perceived bottom class.

Puts me off.

I don't think anyone worries, it is what it is.

Dingdongler

Funny that as I don't feel like I've been taken down a peg or two. I feel exactly the same today as I did when this thread started

Anyway, the good news is that we can all breath easy as you won't (or perhaps can't) reproduce.

What? A childish, casually misogynistic, borderline homophobic, forum bully? Yep that's you!

No we can't because you can and have! I can only imagine the results.....

Haven't heard that for a while

No, apparently I'm gay

Mouser

You're not sure?

Turbohot

To who? To the ones who wind you up, because you get easily wound up? To the ones who think its ok to continue to wind you up, because it's a good school ground laugh for them? LOL why do you even bother with them FFS??? If having fluffy cats was a sign of someone being gay, half the scoobynet must be gay! E.g. thenewgalaxy, RA Dunk, SJ Skyline etc. and etc. These straight males are proud owners of fluffy cats. And even if some of the ferocious dog-with-big-bollox lovers here are gay, why should it be a problem, anyway. Who cares!

Take no notice of those self-nominated hard man alpha males wind up merchants, f1. This advice is coming from one of your 'female' body guards , as these misogynists put it.

Mega LOLz at them.

No, I'm quite sure of my sexuality, I just don't think it matters one way or the other and feel no need to proclaim it, one way or the other, from the rooftops!

After all it's not me who sees being gay as a weakness to be ridiculed at every opportunity unlike some on here!

Matteeboy

I do.

Bender.

Kwik

iTrader: (10)

I don't think anybody see's being gay as a weakness, more likely someone who's afraid to admit what they are and be secure with it.
It's not like anyone can think any less of you whether you were gay, Bi, or tri-sexual. I don't think its possible to think any less of you.

Absolute crap. The way people use derogatory terms for being gay as an insult on here is precisely because they view it as a weakness otherwise why use the term in the way they do. Gheyer, bender, shirtlifter etc.... all that sort of thing that people use over and over and when questioned just say they are having a laugh. If they didn't see it as a wekaness they wouldn't use it as a form of ridicule! If you cannot understand that then that's not my problem, it's yours!

Listen to him! Forgive me if what someone like you thinks of me doesn't rate too highly on my give-a-****-o-meter

Matteeboy

Tri-sexual sounds racy. Does it involve animals?
