    So because my parents gave me a male name I can only identify as a male? Are you from the 1950s?
    I had no idea you were made to register on this forum as your christian name? 
    I'm proud of my name, why would I not use it?

    I have no idea? Maybe if you didn't identify with the gender its associated with? 
    So now you're going to tell me what names are appropriate for me to use? Amazing stuff. 

    Here we should have a middle aged white man slowly realising he's actually been a bit sexist and ageist. Now, instead of apologising he simply gets defensive, huffy and red faced. A state known today as "being a massive c***".

    It's so hard to know what is and isn't cultural appropriation these days.
    I bloody hate that term.

    Cultural appropriation is a compliment. Someone copies something from your culture because they enjoy it. That's a celebration of diversity ffs.
    Yeah, i mean why can't those indigenous people just let us take their shit? We like it, so why can't we have it?

    I guess I should've guessed a thread about something in rugby was gonna be filled with gammon chortling about how funny ethnic minorities are.
    It was fun while it lasted, but you're trying to hard now.
    And here we have a middle aged white man slowly realising he's actually been a bit racist. Now, instead of apologising he simply gets defensive, huffy and red faced. A state known today as "gammon".

    hahaha put your rod away. 'middle aged'..cheeky little Kuntaddick.
    I'm sorry but you're on a wind up.

    No way anyone born after 1980 is called Gary.
    What a weird and pathetic insult. Get a life you sad little man

    actually, i pointed out that you had assumed "everyone's" gender. twice.
    cafcdave logic : Feel free to criticise and mock indigenous people's dances. But don't assume some one's gender on a predominately white male message board.

    Righto.
    don't try and make me out to be the bad guy because you cant get your narrow little mind around the fact that some people in 2019 consider themselves non-binary.

    Cultural appropriation doesnt exist.

    A simple question in the OP turns into a binary/non-binary, colonising racists, gender, age and race assumptions and all round bollox.

    It's a sport - play f*cking rugby (a stupendously great game, Henners!) and leave the dancing to Len Goodman.

    You assumed Dave to be a bloke. Now I know Dave very well, and so I also know that in doing so, you may aswell have called him a cunt

    You must be drunk, I didn't insult the haka at all, in fact I asked if it should be protected from cultural appropriation by the New Zealand national team.

    You then started being racist and didn't like it when you were called a bad name.

    I'm not white or Angry. Or middle aged. Or middle class. And I don't enjoy Gammon. Bit salty.

    I'm what's often referred to as olive skinned. That's my eastern and southern European heritage at play.

    you do seem pretty hung up on skin colour , you have mentioned it a number of times usually when digging people out.

    Pretty sure no one else dropped the c bomb.

    Gammon is a clear reference to skin colour, Mr 1950s

    Where does the tag "gammon" come from. Genuine question
    Dickens coined it in Nicholas Nickleby 

    Here's the quote: 

    The time had been, when this burst of enthusiasm would have been cheered to the very echo; but now, the deputation received it with chilling coldness. The general impression seemed to be, that as an explanation of Mr. Gregsbury’s political conduct, it did not enter quite enough into detail; and one gentleman in the rear did not scruple to remark aloud, that, for his purpose, it savoured rather too much of a 'gammon' tendency.

    The meaning of that term—gammon,' said Mr. Gregsbury, 'is unknown to me. If it means that I grow a little too fervid, or perhaps even hyperbolical, in extolling my native land, I admit the full justice of the remark. I am proud of this free and happy country. My form dilates, my eye glistens, my breast heaves, my heart swells, my bosom burns, when I call to mind her greatness and her glory.
