So true - apparently the Chippendales are just good, clean fun for the girls.
And for some reason it is OK to put up a "fireman" calendar at work.
And "female friendly" norty movies are nicer - look the bloody same to me!

And don't give me the whole "yes but it would ruin their career" shit. I want females and males for that matter to have some self respect and give back to these knobs. And if it'll ruin their careers then realise that it isn't an industry they want to be in for the rest of their lives.
Umm don't let don burkes public persona fool you. He's not a soft khunt like you assume. You also need to know that tv types are often very quiet and reserved - so someone like Burke is a rude awakening for most in the industry. People feared him both mentally and physically.Quote:

If he was like that (I've heard stories as well) then he most certainly is a weak coward Khunt. It takes strength to treat those with a lesser "status" than you with respect.Quote:

Imagine facing a jury back then for bashing gardening hero Don Burke - they'd be calling to get the death penalty reinstated. Now that his profile is not so big he's an easier mark - but back then it would not have been so simple.Quote:

Burke always defended his rep by saying it was his name on the marquee so any poor review of the show was a poor review of him.
As Dunster said it can easily be passed off as being a perfectionist.
But yeah, his employees obviously loved that payslip coming through.
So what exactly is Don Burke's crime here??
That he hits on women in a sleazy manner
**** me
How many people on this planet are born because their dad was the same hitting on their mother by being crude and rude??
I backing quite a bit
so far, yes.Quote:

not a new thing however, the hippies love trying to tell me that Invasion Day was all my fault too.
Funny, i must have been drunk because i dont remember anything*
*there is a fair chance both Dunster and Jetmaster were alive in 1788 but there is nothing to suggest they participated in any of these events.
But are they really 2017 sensibilities??Quote:

Quite frankly I think this is just more a ploy to neuter the male population into submission by bullying tactics from females
Quite frankly I am in Burke's backyard here
Men need to grow a pair and stick to their guns here
Problem right there. Peeps loved suking their dicks for decades because they're on tv or movies. They arent anything special ffs. Then when they try to get everyone they cant understand no.Quote:

That is a ridiculous over-simplification of what's alleged here.Quote:

Now, the Geoffrey Rush thing seems like a beat up. Burke seems like a monster.
ok well here is where i think the lines are.Quote:

Tinder, well heres where i find it interesting. The stuff that gets said on here is way worse than old Donny ever offered up (from what we know so far).
But again, Tinder kind of has an implication that you know what youre there for.
now, in the workplace, none of that shit should be acceptable. and yes, its even worse if you then abuse your power to punish someone for not taking you up on the offer.
so yeah, the behaviours havent changed, but these days the playing fields are pretty well marked.
Over simplifying it ??Quote:

Me I not really shocked as males are hard wired into their DNA to want to **** everything that moves
Anyone who acted like that around you would be getting much more action than you and be a great wing man for you to hang off
Women actually respond to sleazy behaviour. Don't kid yourself they don't

Parksey seriously ? Your generation [not you personally] has taken meaningless sex and promiscuity to an entirely new level of low that even the acid fuelled 60's can't compete with.Quote:

Once the hook is set things change - but overall, it's no worse than what goes down these days - like people being attracted to each other isn't mostly sexual.
If it wasn't true then why do we even have a type or ideal image of a male or female that is considered "attractive"?
Oh and as far as lines go:
My fav.
Can I buy you a drink or would you prefer the money ?
