Equality et al.
Grandad is in ‘trouble’ for speaking about the ambiguity of political correctness language.
A few commentators took exception to his posting and proceeded to lambaste the man for all the wrong reasons. Jenny, a lecturer in Belfast, in particular, took grave exception to his posting and even suggested that Grandad not bring Irish blogging into disrepute through such intemperate posts.
Grandad replied here … and again, restated his point about political correctness language/wording.
I commented thus!
The official Paddy Bloggit line is that we are an ‘Equal Opportunities Blog’ ….. we treat everyone the same …. if they deserve praise they will receive it …. it they deserve criticism they will receive that also …. regardless of creed, colour, gender, sexual persuasion etc.
All get it equally here ……

Paddy - I liked your stance in this debate.
You were the first to weigh it up from both sides and cleverly suggest a ‘draw’. As you said yourself - it was a no-win situation!
Has Grannymar let you out of detention yet?
Thanks for the comment Steph ….
Age is a great leveller …. as I grow older my philosophy of ‘live and let live’ rings truer every day.
There are some arguments that will never be won or lost …. the whole PC debate is one of them.
I’m still in detention ….. I should learn to behave on Grannymar’s blog …. but I can’t ….
I reckon Grannymar is a bit of a dominatrix …. she loves the whole concept of detention.
Thankfully corporal punishment has been outlawed!
