    It seems to me that people understand "woke" to mean ultra liberalism. Some of the replies to your OP seem to bear that out. So if someone (probably in the media) refers to woke policing, they are probably talking about coppers spending hours trawling through someone's @rsebook history to see if they offended someone 4 years ago, instead of trying to catch the toe-rag who burgled your house last week. You and I do not have the right not to be offended. If people use what we might think of as offensive language, then that's the price we pay for free speech -and it's a price worth paying all day long.

    There are trans people with gender dysphoria and then there are ‘trans’ people who are doing it because it’s a trend. Kids especially like to experiment with their identities.

    Best shag I ever had was with a girl with a mohican hair style. This thing was about 18inches from her head and right down her back. Nearly poked my ****ing eye out on several occasions. She was such a stunner, really beautiful girl, gorgeous eyes but oh my god she put the fear of god into just about every man in the pubs and clubs, not ****ing me though. Her skin was literally as white as snow, not 1 single hair from the waist down and the largest bright pink nipples I’ve even seen, talk about hang your shirt on them. I can remember my legs being like jelly walking home the following morning, good job it wasn’t windy, would have put me on my arse. I could not wipe the smile from my face for a week. If this story has offended anyone, tough ****, I’m using my right to free speech, **** any shrinking violets who may or may not be offended….

    It's funny when people say that you can't say anything anymore. I presume they've never watched South Park.

    a good example of being woke is the BBC putting the womens nations league results between tonight's Premier League results and Championship results

    Think she had a Huron haircut as in the picture. For some reason people in this country started calling it a Mohican cut but in the USA it was a Mohawk, of which the Hurons were one of the tribes. The Mohicans had long hair.

    Was watching SKY before the game. Another box ticking exercise saw some hopeless female Scottish international on the panel as she wasn’t playing in a deserted Hampden because of injury. Good job she has something to fall back on,

    I am not offended but am offended on behalf of someone who might be.

    also Iroquois - I think confusion came from tv version of last of the Mohicans , many moons ago, when most of the Indians - woke version, native Americans - had ' mohicans ' but the last of the mohicans, ie only one indian, hence the word last - had long hair - however the word mohican stuck

    Yes. Always watched that on TV.There was a craze for mohicans in the early 60s, only amongst those a bit older, and generally from let us say the rougher estates where parents were a bit more lax in their parenting, and a sure fire way to be sent home from school. Once heard a barber saying the same about haircuts when I was waiting and some lad asked him for a Mohican, Asked him if he was really sure before going ahead.<laugh> Funny old world back then. You got sent home if you had a crewcut then 2 years later if your hair touched your collar.
