Hmmmm! Just come home from the H........ parliament, held every Saturday. We are of the opinion that anyone who can take offense at "Man sized tissues" should be shot at dawn - along with supporters of delivery companies called HERmes (should be Theirmes), along with adverts for sanitary towels alongside pictures only EVER of WOMEN! It really is time that people accept that women and blokes are different.
@ AdeDunn - you are just soooo right!
As a Pagan, I object strongly to the name of a Greek/Roman (HE was both after all) been used as the name of a rather rubbish delivery company.... I mean, as the messenger of the gods, I'm sure that he was probably rather good at his job, which is something you probably can't say for most MyHermes drivers.... lol That's the thing though, nobody gives a **** when a Pagan gets offended about something (probably because we're usually just taking the piss...), I mean, the press still insist on using the name of a major Kemetic goddess as the name for a frickin' terrorist group ffs!!! Feminists are upset about mansized tissues, meanwhile the buggers are using the name of a goddess to describe a bunch of murdering *** hats!!! Shish...
My point been, people are getting offended about the wrong things, they really are.
As to women's clothes, yeah there's something to be offended about! At least when us chaps read a size on the label we can be sure the size on the label is the size we're getting! Women it's a game of ruddy clothing roulette! It might be that size, or more like between 3 to 6 sizes smaller.... But that's ok, at least they're re-branded that box of tissues... Me, I reckon they should have taken the more prosaic approach to their objection, and taken it to advertising standards!!! As in, hold one up next to the smallest man they can find, nope not man sized at all, so clearly the a lie then! Not man sized at all!!!
Oh, for the record, I blow my nose on toilet roll, like most normal people surely? Aren't boxes of tissues a bit posh and leave you with a hand full of snot anyway?
