As a Tory voter, are you offended by being called 'Gammon face'?

[ENG601PM]

You can avoid going gammon by keeping control of your temper.

 

It’s simple.

 

That's like saying that homosexuality is a choice too.

I’m really worried now, I’m wearing sandals, t shirt and shorts, and am about to consume a vegetable lasagna, does this mean that I’m a Corbynite?

 

 

Only if you are also wearing socks

[Mister Gee]

I asked that about an hour ago but for some reason it got deleted.

Ok , you can have the kudos for it

[Mister M]

He might be moving to Crookes at some point, lots of old lefties up in Crookes.

 

Or even Woodseats! Apparently there are lots of trendy Wendies up there!

Nonsense, lots of people change their temperament, attitudes even political affiliations. Some people change their attitudes to their own sexuality, become more accepting of their own homosexuality. As a gay man I've met several older gay men who would recognise themselves as gammon when they were younger: closeted, unhappy and angry when others find love. When they came out they became much more relaxed in their attitudes.

Cheers gammon face.

[nikki-red]

Back on topic please.

 

Thank you.

[hackey lad]

Cheers gammon face.

So being a gammon face is something like gender fluid?

I think perhaps it's a little bit of a novelty middle aged white men being labelled, and lightly salted mocked. I suspect if it's something that happened over a lifetime, and they faced real discrimination - then that's different.
