    Stewart lee sums it up best


    He did indeed put it perfectly.

    I refer to the fallout - which yes is a very small price to pay - as Lee said.

    For example Paddy Irish man jokes are non-PC but even being Irish - I don't find them offensive on the whole and do tend to find them funny. Also most posts on this thread may be non-PC as are many great comedians and shows like Family Guy, etc.

    I don't care what those idiots in UKIP and Fox (Faux) News yammer about. They are despicable bigots.

    But people can be overly sensitive and can turn a mole hill into a mountain for little things unfortunately. This is the misunderstanding here.

    A belief in gender identity involves a level of faith as there is nothing tangible to prove its existence which, as something divorced from the physical body, is similar to the idea of a soul. - Colette Colfer

    How many atheists must feel like saying when they hear religious folk deny facts by saying things like, "well in the [insert silly holy book title here] it says ... ".
