Political Correctness Gone MadFreddy Woo writes: "I once worked on an animation to help highlight the issues homeless people face in winter. The client was happy with the work, then a note came back that the ethnic mix of the characters were wrong. These were cartoon characters. They weren't meant to be ethnically anything, but we were forced to make one of them brown, at the cost of about 10k to the charity. This is how your donations are spent. Wisely as you can see."

This one annoys me ...When the local swimming baths is closed so they can hold a 'women only' session.
It can't be an equal rights thing, as there is no men only one - which makes it discriminatory towards men.
I can only assume it is because 'all men are perverts and oglers' which is the same as saying all women are prostitutes - just because a few are doesn't mean they all are.
I'd complain..... but i am a perv :)

Discrimination, surely?I'm skinny and pale, and get very self conscious about women seeing my ribs sticking out through my translucent skin. Can I have a "men only" swimming session too, please?
