Fuck Yeah, Gender Studies!

It was a link to a topical news article! Jfc give over already. 

Oh don’t worry they haven’t forgotten about you dickhead now fuck off.

“People come to this site looking for answers since they are genuinely in the unknown of where to begin to look for them”.

By ‘this site’ you mean Google, right? People go to Google for answers when they don’t know where to look for them. They don’t, reasonably, go to a fringe blog about GENDER STUDIES (which, let’s face it, isn’t known for gladly suffering fools) to ask about 1970s & 80s UK POLITICS. 

Just because she was a woman doesn’t mean i automatically have an encyclopaedic knowledge of her. I was barely alive when she left office.

Yeah guess what buddy this isn’t a blog about Margaret fucking Thatcher, i’m not your Margaret Thatcher 101 professor and asking if you’ve heard of Google is still not an insult.

Well… i only own (and have only ever owned, now i think about it) one t shirt with a face on it, and it’s his face.

Ask the trans community.

Yeah, i know. I broke it. 

Please tell me what part of what you quoted from me was an insult bc i just don’t see it.

Wow. Are you kidding me? Have you heard of a little thing called Google?

Here are some things you might want to look up: her relationship with dictators, her attitude to the working class, her perspective on women, her economic views, poll tax, miner’s strike, Hillsborough, the Belgrano, the NHS, capital punishment, unemployment, privatisation of industry, selling off of social housing, section 28, Scottish oil, 21.9% inflation, pals with a child molester.

EDIT: Here’s a hand list I found courtesy of a nice person on Yahoo Answers (who knew?):

1. She supported the retention of capital punishment 
2. She destroyed the country’s manufacturing industry 
3. She voted against the relaxation of divorce laws 
4. She abolished free milk for schoolchildren (“Margaret Thatcher, Milk Snatcher”) 
5. She supported more freedom for business (and look how that turned out) 
6. She gained support from the National Front in the 1979 election by pandering to the fears of immigration 
7. She gerrymandered local authorities by forcing through council house sales, at the same time preventing councils from spending the money they got for selling houses on building new houses (spending on social housing dropped by 67% in her premiership) 
8. She was responsible for 3.6 million unemployed - the highest figure and the highest proportion of the workforce in history and three times the previous government. Massaging of the figures means that the figure was closer to 5 million 
9. She ignored intelligence about Argentinian preparations for the invasion of the Falkland Islands and scrapped the only Royal Navy presence in the islands 
10. The poll tax 
11. She presided over the closure of 150 coal mines; we are now crippled by the cost of energy, having to import expensive coal from abroad 
12. She compared her “fight” against the miners to the Falklands War 
13. She privatised state monopolies and created the corporate greed culture that we’ve been railing against for the last 5 years 
14. She introduced the gradual privatisation of the NHS 
15. She introduced financial deregulation in a way that turned city institutions into avaricious money pits 
16. She pioneered the unfailing adoration and unquestioning support of the USA 
17. She allowed the US to place nuclear missiles on UK soil, under US control 
18. Section 28 
19. She opposed anti-apartheid sanctions against South Africa and described Nelson Mandela as “that grubby little terrorist” 
20. She support the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia and sent the SAS to train their soldiers 
21. She allowed the US to bomb Libya in 1986, against the wishes of more than 2/3 of the population 
22. She opposed the reunification of Germany 
23. She invented Quangos 
24. She increased VAT from 8% to 17.5% 
25. She had the lowest approval rating of any post-war Prime Minister 
26. Her post-PM job? Consultant to Philip Morris tobacco at $250,000 a year, plus $50,000 per speech 
27. The Al Yamamah contract 
28. She opposed the indictment of Chile’s General Pinochet 
29. Social unrest under her leadership was higher than at any time since the General Strike 
30. She presided over interest rates increasing to 15% 
31. BSE 
32. She presided over 2 million manufacturing job losses in the 79-81 recession 
33. She opposed the inclusion of Eire in the Northern Ireland peace process 
34. She supported sanctions-busting arms deals with South Africa 
35. Cecil Parkinson, Alan Clark, David Mellor, Jeffrey Archer, Jonathan Aitkin 
36. Crime rates doubled under Thatcher 
37. Black Wednesday – Britain withdraws from the ERM and the pound is devalued. Cost to Britain - £3.5 billion; profit for George Soros - £1 billion 
38. Poverty doubled while she opposed a minimum wage 
39. She privatised public services, claiming at the time it would increase public ownership. Most are now owned either by foreign governments (EDF) or major investment houses. The profits don’t now accrue to the taxpayer, but to foreign or institutional shareholders. 
40. She cut 75% of funding to museums, galleries and other sources of education 
41. In the Thatcher years the top 10% of earners received almost 50% of the tax remissions 
42. 21.9% inflation

And i’d tell you my opinion of her but it’s just a load of four letter words, so…

I don’t know about “usually” but here are some common things that are done. 

1) Firstname Mother’ssurnameasmiddlename Father’ssurname
2) Firstname Father’ssurnameasmiddlename Mother’ssurname
3) Firstname [Middlename(s)] Mother’ssurname-Father’ssurname
4) Firstname [Middlename(s)] Father’ssurname-Mother’ssurname
5) Firstname [Middlename)s)] Portmanteauofparents’surnames
6) Firstname [Middlename(s)] Brandnewlastnamebutnotaportmanteau
7) Firstname [Middlename(s)] Mother’ssurname

or, worst of all

8) Firstname [Middlename(s)] Father’ssurname

I’ve personally seen people do 1, 2, 3, 5 and, sadly, 8. I’ve heard of people doing the others.

Or to illustrate more simply (i hope)

1) Kid Mum Dad
2) Kid Dad Mum
3) Kid Badass Mum-Dad
4) Kid Badass Dad-Mum
5) Kid Badass Mud
(or Kid Badass Mad/ Kid Badass Dum)
6) Kid Badass Fuckingawesome
