> Well, back in the real world I don't believe the rugby crowds
that I've seen have a problem with LGBTQQIP2SAA folk (yes, I did
trawl the internet for the longest acronym I could find). There
may be people, as evinced on here, who have issues with the
concepts (e.g. there's no such thing as T), or the way some
entities have tried to accomodate people of different
persuasions (e.g. prison service and T men->women, sports clubs
and how to deal with men -> women). However, I don't believe
we'd make anyone unwelcome at the Stoop because of their
orientation. The fact the club supports these people to make our
club "inclusive" is something to be admired, in my view.

That's how I want my club to be! That's what my club wants to
be!

Actually that was me as "Admin" took away those buttons because
you were abusing them. DOK is the Harlequins supporter, Admin
runs this board. I can understand the difference, I hope you
can.
It might be helpful for everyone to remind themselves of the
relevant part of the rules of this forum as they currently
stand.

As somebody who works in advertising, I’d love to see any
evidence you have to back any of that up.
Either the 80% black actors or the zero representation of other
demographics.

If advertisers have increased representation, it's because they
want access to a wider range of people's money, not because of
box ticking.

see why a lot of forums chuck the ‘follow on discussions’ into a

don’t get rehashed as nauseum in the sport section of the
forums.

LOL yeah, bod is the one with an agenda.
He's outlined his objections, why not explain why you disagree?
I don't much like the TQ lot either. I HAVE FEMALES IN MY FAMILY
