The Persians (and Gauls and Germans) wore them, but not the Greeks and Romans, who thought them effeminate.

Thanks for that correction Chewtobacca! And it's interesting what one time period considered effeminate that another considered masculine. Fascinating.

High heels also used to be a necessary fashion accessory for men as well, before that changed however many years ago.

Gaffer Tape said:

EDIT:  Worth pointing out.  Jesus didn't wear pants.  He wore unbifurcated garments, the category to which a skirt and dress belong.  I certainly hope you wouldn't tell Jesus he looked silly and for him to put on some damn pants because he's offending your traditional sensibilities. =P

Jesus did that 2000 years ago.  Pants hadn't been invented yet.

Yeah they had. The persians and greeks were wearing them roughly 600 years before Jesus was supposedly born.

He looks fine to me.

It's a bit weird to be hung up on men wearing clothes traditionally worn by women when most women wear trousers and lots of men wear skirts designed specifically for men.

That level of insecurity in the 21st century is a bit tragic.

It's just clothes.

*High fives*

Oh dear. Is this going to become another "everyone against Warbler" thread?

:(

gay men look the same as straight men,  men do not look the same as women.

Oh yeah?

BAM!

DOUBLE STANDARDS!!

I have no idea what the hell this pic is supposed to be saying? Bingo?

Look at it again at 6 AM on a Sunday morning. It'll make more sense. It'll change your life.

A million quid in the bank would change my life. But I'll give your theory a go and see what happens.

It's from the forum TREKBBS. They were guessing what a better version of Trek 09's Enterprise would look like. I think I suggested the Pez dispenser nacelles.

It's annoying that I can never find high heels in my size too.

Not sure if serious...

 

Yeah, I'm being serious :P

I don't think Warb is being deliberately fascistic.

He may be expressing views which accidentally chime with that sort of ideology and need to have a good hard think about what he is saying there.

Replace the word "homosexuals" with "Jews", "gay" with "Jewish", "straight" with "Christian","genders" with "religions", "transgenders" with" Mormons" and the sentence is just as worryingly wacky.

Yeah, but never the less, I was really offended by that statement. And hyperbole is my weapon against such pinnacles of ignorance.

I mean wow, I've heard some homophobic slurs in my time, but this ranks up there with this.

Yeah, that was a really horrible thing to say, even if weren't intentionally mean spirited.

Warb, does it bother you sharing a bathroom with a gay guy?

I guess I just pretend all the guys in there are straight.

Double standards!

 

Somehow, I missed that catchphrase. I welcome it back!

Me too! It's been a while. :D

greenpenguino said:

I don't get why items of clothing should be segregated either.

because some clothing is designed for women and their body shape and some is designed for men and their body shape?

 

That's kinda bogus. Yeah there are T-shirts and jeans and stuff which are designed for women's body shapes, but that doesn't mean there can't also be skirts and tights and stuff for men... sometimes I like to wear dresses too :(

If you've been following a few of my latest videos, you will know that I vehemently agree.  Therefore, I make sure I don't segregate them.

oh good God.

Oh, don't be such a prude.

Gaffer Tape said:

  I'm all for eliminating gender-segregated restrooms anyway.

but then we'd have to get rid of the urinals, wouldn't we?  I mean would it really be appropriate for a man to stand at a urinal, do his business, while females could be walking around the bathroom?  

Meh. I don't use the urinals anyway.I like to sit down while I pee.

And yeah, I consider myself to be a feminist too.

I don't get why items of clothing should be segregated either.

Aw come on, Jesus isn't from Australia! Everyone knows this!

He's from Puerto Rico! Duh!!

In which Orci outs Lindelof as being the pro-Khan push

Let the OT.com-Lindelof-hate-fest continue...

and Part 2

That is why I feel that STID is the "Prometheus" of the Star Trek franchise.

SPFX Look Great, Good Actors, Wonderful Established Universe, Competent Director, Lots of Unexplored Story Potential and Seemingly Abandoned Plot Threads, and a Shit Script

And what do they both have in common???

Space ships landing on planets.

And Damon Lindelof

My personal fav scenario is that after being thrown into the Time War the last time we saw him the Master becomes a previously absent element in it's last hours.

He subdues Rassilon makes a temporary alliance with the Daleks and ends the war.

The temporal tinnitus is removed The Master is no longer a maniac and by way of a thank-you he is made high president.

The Time Lords still pretend to be extinct and focus on tracking down the man that almost destroyed them so they can return the favour.

The Master as the Hero of Gallifrey and the Doctor as the bogeyman of the Time Lords.

I wish I'd come up with that before.

Ooo!! That's even better!

Ooooo.....!

I watched the end of The Deadly Assassin and the whole of The Talons Of Wieng-Chiang last night.

The latter gets a lot of stick for the use of yellow face but I don't think there were enough actors from the orient in London back then for the BBC to use, they managed to get at least a dozen authentically ethnic artistes and Doctor Four shows his disgust at the Victorian attitudes to the Chinese.

The main villain is from Iceland.

Someone should release a special edition with an optional giant rat fix because as much as I keep telling myself it's a cultural artifact of it's time that bloke in an oversized faux-rodent suit really takes me out of the story (it did when I was six).

The Deadly Assassin is almost as good today as it was at the time of broadcast (it sags a bit in the Matrix scenes but not much).

Bring back the Time Lords like that again Moff.

It can be easy to do too. A group of dissident Time Lords, led by Romana, disgusted with what Rassilon did and was planning to do during the time war hid in a void ship, similar to what the daleks created and emerge again as proper Time Lords.

There could be some sort of twist in the story too, like they have several re-purposed Daleks  (Looking like a time lord-y Classic Dalek) that they used as protection. Of course, once the daleks are released from the void their natural killing tendancies kick in for some reason, and they have to be stopped by UNIT and the new time lords.

It's sitting in my collection waiting for the right moment to strike like Beyond Good and Evil did.

Gods I loved that game until the impossible boss.

I've yet to play Beyond Good and Evil as well. So many games that I need to play, so little time

This one is a bit rude though. Sorry.

I've been recently playing Psychonauts. I had never played it before at it was a ton of fun to play... until it got to the last few levels. Then it stopped being fun and just became a slog to go through. It's like the difficulty level found a jetpack and flew faster than a bullet train to the moon.

Lots of swearing, cursing and angry whines may have been emitted.

Pavel Chekov's hair

Saw it today. It was silly, but a lot of fun. 3D was nothing to write home about.

I was a little disappointed that Kirk didn't say 'Second Star to the right, and straight on til morning' or something like that at the end of the film, what with all the other references in this film. Nevermind.

Cumberbatch didn't really need to be Khan. He was a good baddie, but he could've been Joachim (or Joaquin, however it's pronounced.) That might've actually been better.

I liked it quite a lot, despite a lot of the stupid stuff. I'll definitely go see it again.

Hipster.

 

Haha, perfect picture, lol. Yuck.

That pic reminds me of a girl I used to go out with, who would... let's just say "splash out" when 'stimulated'...

 

But I don't mind ladies kissing me or licking me all over my face and stuff. I like it.

I wasn't going to mention it, but she does that too! I've always been extremely curious about that whole thing, and always really hoped I'd run across a woman who did that. Now that I've experienced it, it is pretty crazy! 

I don't mind having my face licked or kissed either, but with this beard the whole face licking thing just felt weird and got really wet and unpleasant.

Fair enough.

The whole squirting thing is fun though isn't it? (At least I thought so) The downside was that I would have to keep changing bedsheets or actually put a towel down. :-/

Also Frink, ew...

I used to have nightmares about stuff like this as a kid.

I want to go see it.
