Doesn't it seem that these TINY minorities are all given huge priorities,yet the majority are forgotten about and why? Because none of us speak up enough and that includes me

Don't make any difference if we do speak up.  We don't have money behind us, nor the time to go out with placards shouting our particular cause.  Many of these are known activists - seen on many a picket line over the years.  Same with the National Trust - were taken over the some lobby or other due to sheer numbers present  >:(

But look at all these IDIOTS who hold up traffic and what happens? The police offer them cups of tea,emergency services stopped in their tracks,people trying to get to schools to pick up their children and these people yet again are in the minority,half of them with nothing better to do.We should take a leaf out of Germany's book,the protesters who super glued themselves to VW dealership,at the end of the day,all the staff left and shut them in  ;D ;D

These kind of people just love the limelight and would protest about absolutely anything. Who on earth can afford to spend all day protesting.  Do these people not work?  After the boob I made earlier today, I have just been, funnily enough for my mammogram and it got me thinking (whilst my droopy post menopausal boob was plopped out on the slab) that surely it can't just be 'females' having mammograms now.  Would that not be sexist?!  Anyone who wants to identify as a woman (but who is clearly not) should be made to have their breast squeezed into a vice like contraption.  See if they like being a woman then.  Obviously, it would be very difficult for them to have a smear test but we all have breasts.   ;)

Men can request mammograms if they are going as females  ::).  And yes, the machines were designed by a woman. Apparently  >:(

Goodluck Jaypo, I was dreading mine as I found it really sore last time.  Think the nurse was a bit slapdash, however it was fine today.

Oh dearie me. I nearly fainted last time I had my mammogram  ???  I thought it was sore and felt the colour drain from me.  One of the nurses said….
“I think she’s going to go. Quick, get her some chocolate” I recovered sharpish  ;D ;D

You'll be fine Jaypo  ;)
I'm just such a wuss. Jumped off the table at a cervical smear appointment too  ;D
I'm surprisingly OK with bowel screening  ::)

Smear tests should be offered to everyone, I can’t understand why they’re not  ;D

Us ladies can’t get them routinely so opening up the criteria might make them more available maybe!

Smears are offered to 'at risk' age groups.  Occasionally someone might be affected either side of the age groups.  After 70 we have to ask.  Same for mammograms.

Oh they should definitely have smear tests. If they want to be women they should have the full experience!!! but of course they want to pick and choose the best bits  >:(
