Saw on the front of one of the TV listings magazines"Will  Kim Tate survive fatal fall?" Surely if it's a fatal fall she can't survive otherwise it wouldn't be fatal?Or has my understanding of English deteriorated so much?

[STEMO]

I've been having to put up with that, and similar, shite for years. Just recently it has featured more storylines about sexual minorities and weirdos than any normal person should have to watch. So I told my wife that it was my turn to be offended, as it is not just the preserve of snowflakes, and if it remained on I would watch telly in a different room.
Here comes an argument, I thought. No. She agreed with me and added that Coronation Street has gone the same way. We agreed that, if she felt the need for a top-up, she would watch in a different room.

A small village in Yorkshire. In the last six months....a serial killer, two gay couples (one male, one female, of course), a returning transgender thingy, an acid attack, drug addiction, a mixed race relationship, affairs galore, etc., etc.......

At this point I could mention that I'm lying in bed typing this. She drew the line at Casualty.

Surely there should be a schoolgirl pregnancy or two in there.........have you noticed that nearly all the TV adverts that feature couples tend to have one black and one white person.

The teen pregnancy is not shocking any more, too tame. As for your point over the brainwashing of the population by portraying mixed race marriages with coffee coloured kids, whose friends are all gays as the norm, I almost posted that very thing last night. I agree with you wholeheartedly and, if you start to watch out for it in adverts and trendy CH4 programmes, it becomes as laughable as the Russian spy interview. Do they think we are morons? Yes.
The vision of British life shown on tv ads is about as far from the truth as possible.

Here's a question... How many people do you know and actively socialise with that are a different race?

Strangely, I don't know any really obese people either. My son doesn't know any students who are suffering mental health problems. But these people are everywhere, they represent large parts of the population......according to the news.
Most of the people I know just get up in the morning, get on with their day and go back to bed. I must lead a sheltered life. 

[ronnyd]

I,m also sure that some of the viewers who watch the soaps avidly think they are documentaries.

[BazaJT]

What? you mean they're not real?you'll be telling me next there's no Easter bunny

Swmbo is beginning to get fed up with the constant lefty liberal agenda in Emmerdale (and Corrie) but still insists on watching it come what may. Even turns the volume up so she can hear some of the dialogue over the sound of herself talking.
They really are strange creatures.

Speak to any operational police officer and you will find out that much of their time on many shifts are spent dealing with the results of mental health issues.  A large part of my input into police operational matters, amongst the rest, is on or about mental health issues, and other conditions that do affect a significant proportion of the general public.  Indeed that is why a number of police forces have patrols that include mental health professionals.

I don't know any, so they must all be down your way.

What's mental health to do with race or sexuality...

Besides, mentally we all have issues, and what defines them is only the opinion of others...

A zebra with spots instead of stripes is only wrong if you have a problem with it...

It's got nothing to do with race or sexuality, it's got a lot to do with the shite we are being spoon fed on the media.

Because those who suffer from doubts about either their sexuality or identity will often suffer mental health issues

What about heterosexual Caucasian people? Are they therefore exempt from mental health problems because they don't have a crisis of persons?

For an intelligent person, you can be most presumptuous...

What the hell are you on about DG??!!

That question itself puts YOUR intelligence into question and shows how little you understand the issue of mental health that affects ALL people at some time in their lives regardless of who they are or where they are from. I was commenting on certain issues raised in the thread about sexuality and gender affecting mental health, but you obviously have failed to understand that.

Come on DG, you are better than that and I thought we had got away from personal insults,, but hey ho..............

Can you all shut up. Debbie is about to get married to Jo.

I pulled a girl called Donna once...... in a kebab shop in Torquay!!

As a teenager in the seventies about one in every 3 girls seemed to be called Debbie or Debs. Not so popular now.

Emotional trauma is no respecter of names.

Actually, thinking about it now, one Debbie refused to have sex with me so obviously she wasn't quite the full shilling.

It was clever thinking on behalf of British Leyland. They knew that, in a supermarket car park, you can't open the doors fully on a two door. Well done, I say.

No, they just ordered far too many landcrab doors in the 60's so every model for the following decade or two had to be "styled" around using them up.
