I've had the world's dullest day.
Make it duller before I collapse.

I am watching Wallace & Gromit.
How dull is THAT?

I'm listening to early 70's mixed up genre but good musicians Juicy Lucy whilst working through a stack of paperwork.

it's quite interesting
it was interviewing women who were either North African Muslim immigrants or second generation on their views about whether the veil should be allowed in school

There was a discussion programme on this morning about white women choosing to become Muslim.
I would never deny anyone the right to choose but I just can't get my head round the fact they would choose such a masoginistic religion. No matter how much they deny it, women are not seen to be on equal terms as men.
(I helped save b3ta! girlinthehole, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 19:50, Reply)
They aren't going into this blind
At least, I presume they're not.

Islamic society is patriarchal and makes no bones about it.
(I helped save b3ta! The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 19:55, Reply)
There is a lack of challenge
in the media about it. A perception of being racist is attached to questioning practioners of Islam about their attitudes towards women and gay people in particular
(I helped save b3ta! Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 19:56, Reply)
How do you challenge the overt?
As above, Islam is a male oriented, hetrosexual establishment.

Attempting to challenge that fundamental is like asking water to flow uphill.
(I helped save b3ta! The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 20:00, Reply)
It's not pointless trying to change it
and it's certainly not pointless to ask questions about how those essentials can be integrated with Western culture
(I helped save b3ta! Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 20:02, Reply)
I live in a city with a very big Islamic community (Bradford)
That by no means makes me qualified to comment upon Islamic beliefs and attitudes, but the concept of challenging a status quo is, from my perspective, inconceivable.

Even the more progressive elements of the Islamic community retain a patriarchal stance as a basic tenent of daily life.
(I helped save b3ta! The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 20:09, Reply)
Sadly I agree.
But hopefully over the years we can chip away at some of the more extreme aspects of it.

I think a lot of the misogyny is more cultural than religeous but the two are so intertwined that it will be difficult to change their views.
The way women are treated in some Muslim countries beggers belief.
(I helped save b3ta! girlinthehole, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 20:12, Reply)
The best idea really
would be to go the route of France and ban religious symbolism of any sort from schools, and also to adopt some of the Swedish model of school attendence being mandatory from a young age and faced with very harsh penalties if not. That way you have a neutral atmosphere that every child from the age of 4 or 5 is obliged to attend.
(I helped save b3ta! Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 20:14, Reply)
It's a good idea
But it's too confrontational.

It took many generations for Christianity to accept what Martin Luther nailed to the Wittenburg gate.

Over time, Islam will soften. Trying to force it into a shape that it is currently too rigid to adapt will just bring about resistance.
(I helped save b3ta! The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 20:22, Reply)
It should still be implemented
if people don't like it because it interferes with a patriachal culture that doesn't think original thought is necessary (or on behalf of a woman even possible) then that's too bad.
(I helped save b3ta! Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 20:25, Reply)
It amazes me that in the 21st Century we still have people like the Taliban running about.

(I helped save b3ta! girlinthehole, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 20:27, Reply)
Not according to the women chatting today.
But then they are white middle-class muslim women so I guess they don't go through the same indoctrination poorer muslim girls go through when growing up. I'm not saying all Muslim men are women-hating wife beaters but the whole Muslim ethos is geared towards men. If men and women are equal then why can't they pray together?
(I helped save b3ta! girlinthehole, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 19:59, Reply)
Because men might see them
and think about sex rather than prayers. Women are responsible for men's behaviour after all.

Considering possibly a Theology if I want to outside my department
I could do Classics, or possibly Byzantine Studies. The Eastern Roman Empire is fucking amazing, it's my favourite. That and the Early Church. They're very interlinked.

I certainly would love to do an MA, but I probably have to get a first or a high 2:1 overall to be in with any real chance. Last year I got a mid 2:1, but that was in some dark times, so maybe if I buck my ideas up I can do better this year.
Kind of looking foward to the dissertation. Provided I work hard on it.

I can inspect anything you want now.

I'm still prowling.
Although I'm going to the shops in a minute. I've had my chicken dinner and now I really fancy a Fab ice-lolly, so that's what I'll buy.

Anyone want anything when I'm there?

Don't bother if it's only pickled onion.

Oh, and 20 Marlboro Bright Leaf.

Hankering for an ice lolly in January
and furthermore going to the shop with the expectation that they will have any!
(berk, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 21:44, Reply)
I'll report back shortly.
I'm heading off there now!
(I helped save b3ta! JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 21:45, Reply)
berk
I got 8 Fab ice-lollys for £2.13

I'll have one of them now and keep the rest in the freezer.
(I helped save b3ta! JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 22:03, Reply)
I'm very happy for you
Fabs are the ones with hundreds and thousands on, aren't they?
(berk, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 22:04, Reply)
Yeah.
They are, as the name suggests.

Lovely.

EDIT: Just found out, FABs are for girls. :(

I hate to break this to you
but I've never really liked them. I'll have a fruit pastilles lolly or a solero any day over one of those. Or a magnum. Mmmm.
(berk, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 22:10, Reply)
I want one of those
milky ones. Mini milks?

The chocolate mini-milk is horrible.
Are you sure you'd not rather something else?
(I helped save b3ta! JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 22:13, Reply)
I don't think I liked the chocolate one, either
was there a strawberry one, I like strawberry

There was a strawberry, I seem to remember. I liked it.
I didn't dislike the chocolate one, either.

Mini milks are amazing
I might go and have a couple of ice pops. No calories, and I need a drink.

aren't they full of sugar?
(berk, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 22:23, Reply)
Yes, but ONLY
and I mean ONLY, the white ones. The others are rank.
(berk, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 22:16, Reply)
The fact the mini-milk is the most phallic of all the frozen deserts on a stick.
And the fact that Crunchy, Bella, Lampy and berk are suddenly 'wanting' one, tells me a story.
(I helped save b3ta! JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 22:19, Reply)
Lush, cheap, low in calories.

(BelladonnaAnodyne Melissa's gonna wet herself, I swear..., Sun 16 Jan 2011, 22:22, Reply)
And available in 3 flavours.

(I helped save b3ta! JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 22:24, Reply)
I can think of at least 10.

(BelladonnaAnodyne Melissa's gonna wet herself, I swear..., Sun 16 Jan 2011, 22:26, Reply)
Really?
Name 'em!
(I helped save b3ta! JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 22:29, Reply)
10 flavours of mini milk?
Get out!
(berk, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 22:30, Reply)
I don't
so that throws the theory out of the water

Bloody hell
I do remember this one, just about. I used to sing it to my mum in the post office when she was picking up the child benefit and I knew if I was cute I'd get a chocolate bar out of her, I couldn't have been older than 4...
(berk, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 22:37, Reply)
So your chocolate addiction started at an early age yes?
You probably don't remember this one, it was banned (I think) for it gave kids nightmares.

Nope, I remember this one too
I used to hide behind the sofa. It's fucking creepy. It's not as bad as this one though, this one apparently used to make me burst in to tears:

What will you do with the chips you don't want?

(I helped save b3ta! JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 22:37, Reply)

is it possible to buy 'a few' chips?

I've never eaten a whole thing of chips
so it'll be easy to chuck them in the bin haha

Pfft
the likelihood of me getting a mini milk is vastly greater than the likelihood of me getting laid any time soon.

Can you make them with your ice-cream maker?

(I helped save b3ta! JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Sun 16 Jan 2011, 22:29, Reply)
What, men?
sadly not. Frozen milk, however, probably doesn't require an ice cream maker.

Same
I'd like an extra day off please, if it's all the same to you. It's been a good balance of busy and bugger all, but I wouldn't say no to some more lazytime.

I'd be willing to give it a try
or, you know. Just winning the lottery and not having to work at all. Both are equally (un)likely. At least I have something to look forward to for next weekend though, woo!
