If as you say I'm passing myself off as a woman but am really a man, it's a gender thing.

If one is homosexual but pretending to be heterosexual, it's a sexuality thing.

So what if that player's pretending to be something they're not? aren't we all?

One would have to consider the two as the same.

Warning:

please note, gender is a term which in meaning is purely grammatical, referring to masculine, feminine or neuter.

The term you are looking for is sex.

Stupid PC Americans introduced the term gender as they thought sex sounded rude, or distracting, I suppose.

Sex = male or female. That's what should be on your applications and documents. Not gender. If gender is there, cross it out. If sex is there, resist the temptation to write 'yes please'. Keep the faith!

Interesting analysis.
Could a sexually confused person instead
focus on their own gender issue and as such play down
their homosexual turmoil.
This type of person would come accross as quite genuine
as the type of attention they seek would not be of a sexual
nature but secretly they're throwing scraps to the wolves.

That's what I got you down for FQ.

n.b. Ammerja is not a player.

Yes, you're absolutely right but to make my point clearer to Thequ1ck(differentiate sex from sexuality) I purposely chose to use the term 'gender'. I had a feeling someone would correct me... ๐Ÿ˜‰

Twice?

Stop Frog-bashing!

I'm not sure you could put a number on culture- but TWICE? Come on!

Have you seen the Louvre?

Maybe he meant twice because they have the culture they produced on their one PLUS what they stole.

1+1=2

PS: I like France but they really should give all that stuff back! What's with the obelisk? "Oh, this should look good in that square instead of another statue. We have so many already... Ship it!". ๐Ÿ˜•

Exactly, the Frogs and the Saxons were working along the same lines there.

The French were the first Europeans to enter into Egypt, anyway, so of course old N.B. would want to nick an obelisk or two. It's good for the Empire. Honestly, I wouldn't be sending anything back- they're in London and Paris for a reason.

Of course, you have the argument that they actually saved many artefacts that would have otherwise been lost.
