Toodaloo Posted April 1, 2016 Posted April 1, 2016 Its April fools day. I am a minx. BAAAAAD combination... Just been asked out by a guy on POF. So I accepted and just asked if now would be a good time to ask if he is OK with me having a sex change in three months time... The silence is deathly... Apart from in my office... We are all crying with laughter... and hoping he has a sense of humour and realises what day it is... I feel mean but I guess it will weed him out... 11
Phoenician Posted April 1, 2016 Posted April 1, 2016 nice one ! if he is smart and accepts based on the fact he can do sex with you from now until then , what would be your response ? or he might say that he is bi then you will be in trouble hehe
Author Toodaloo Posted April 1, 2016 Author Posted April 1, 2016 He didn't! He just gave me a kiss and said good luck! When I said he needed to look at his calendar he told me he hates April fools... Like I say this may have weeded him out... We are all wetting ourselves in the office though! Poor chap! Must have had a heart attack! More so as you get some very strange people on POF...! 1
Jersey born raised Posted April 1, 2016 Posted April 1, 2016 Great one, wish I could top it but I can't.
smudge21 Posted April 1, 2016 Posted April 1, 2016 You're evil... Quite scared about sharing my sausage with you now! 3
TheArtist Posted April 1, 2016 Posted April 1, 2016 Haha, that's brilliant! I say wait three months and then send him an 'update' photo. 2
TaraMaiden2 Posted April 1, 2016 Posted April 1, 2016 Haha, that's brilliant! I say wait three months and then send him an 'update' photo. I think it should be this one.... 2
Author Toodaloo Posted April 1, 2016 Author Posted April 1, 2016 Weeded him out as a bigot? Or someone without a sense of humour? Both!
Haydn Posted April 1, 2016 Posted April 1, 2016 I think it should be this one.... Uncle Roger has changed a bit..... 3
Author Toodaloo Posted April 1, 2016 Author Posted April 1, 2016 I think it should be this one.... And I thought I was evil!!!
Author Toodaloo Posted April 1, 2016 Author Posted April 1, 2016 This is actually a really awesome way of weeding guys out! Out of three one has come straight back at me. I really want to meet that guy now. He is hilarious. Something so sexy and macho about a guy that is confident in his own skin. One has been a bit erm... yeah... we won't go there... but I am NOT going to tap that attitude. One hasn't got any sense of humour AT ALL even if the rest is alright. Just waiting on number fours response... Should be good!
Author Toodaloo Posted April 1, 2016 Author Posted April 1, 2016 YES! Tall bald guy is funny as f***! Awesome! 1

TheArtist Posted April 1, 2016 Posted April 1, 2016 And all us baldies are hilarious, it's all we've got left! Except our gardening abilities, obviously. 2

We are all crying with laughter... and hoping he has a sense of humour and realises what day it is... I feel mean but I guess it will weed him out... I just got blasted on Fb by someone objecting to this same joke. The following was not sent to me directly. It was posted on a person's page by a transgender... I got 'shared' with the link....! I wonder how many douche canoes are going to pull the "i'm having a sex change operation!" On April 1st. Lemme tell you why that's a sh***y thing to do. People die for being transgender. People. Die. They get beaten, raped, killed, treated as less than human, and ridiculed constantly simply for existing. Can you imagine walking outside and being jumped, raped, and killed for something beyond your control? For just being you? We live with that fear- Every. Single. Day. Our identities are not a cheap joke or an easy pun. Over 40% of us have attempted to or have committed suicide. Many more self-harm. Or are kicked out of their family homes and are now homeless. We don't have rights to PEE places without fear of legal repercussion or being attacked physically. We spend hundreds of dollars on therapy and hormones and surgery and years of time working at being comfortable with ourselves when the rest of the world wants us to be treated like sick animals. We are not a joke for you to make light of. We are strong people who have fought hard to even be allowed to exist. We have known struggles like you could never imagine. If you wanna make a joke, stick to the goddamned whoopie cushions, ya d**k. I'm afraid I wasn't too sympathetic in my reply to the person who shared the link with me....... I advised them that if we had to check ourselves and tick every politically-correct box before telling a joke, then no jokes would ever get told. While I agree that picking on any persuasion and ridiculing it, belittling it, insulting it and badmouthing it, is unacceptable, this joke doesn't do any of those. It's just a joke. We really need to lighten up a bit. There's being sensitive and there's being ..."Sensitive"....! 2
TheArtist Posted April 1, 2016 Posted April 1, 2016 I'm completely with you on this Tara. I don't think any jokes should be off limits because they are jokes, that's the point. Jokes are the only way of making light of something horrific, and it brightens the mood if you can all laugh instead of moping around. I want jokes and funny stories at my funeral, not sadness. There are some jokes I would never make myself, and I don't agree with those directed at a single person if it's harsh and offensive to them, but that doesn't mean I would have a ruddy good whine about it on social media and try to stop other people doing so. I think everything is open to fun and mockery, otherwise we're all going to walk around not speaking at all and that is much worse. 1

We really need to lighten up a bit. There's being sensitive and there's being ..."Sensitive"....! The thing is by using this I found out so much more about the people I was talking to. Really useful information. Sense of homour yes but I also got to find out what their views are on transgender, homosexuals etc in a very light way. I could NEVER date someone who was bigoted. I just couldn't do it. So for me it was a really great way to get rid of those guys and just stick with the guys worth wasting my time on. Perhaps you should let them know that. Perhaps they need to hear that some people who do this do so BECAUSE they support freedom of choice and "alternative" (can't think of a better word for it but I am sure there is one as its not really a choice) lifestyles. Its because we do not want to date people who are going to cause the problems that others have had to face in the past. My friends son is potentially transgender. He is still too young to know for sure or for people to be able to ask the right questions and for him to fully understand them. So it could be transgender, cross dresser, gay... We do not know for sure yet and like I say he is too young but it has been very obvious from a very young age that he is not hetrosexual. I do not want a partner in my life that is going to suddenly turn round and treat that young boy like poop if and when he comes round to my home and me only find out their views 6, 12, 24 months down the line. I have grown up with this friend so I am not giving up that friendship either and certainly not for something as pathetic as an anti view point like that. So yes it is a joke. But it does also have a very useful "weeding" aspect to it and also opens up further discussion into very important view points that are really important to me and are critical to my decision making process when dating. I do not regret doing it. I have saved myself the bother of wasting time going on a date to discover the guy is an a-hole. Wish I had done this before as I could have saved myself the bother of spending a couple of hours in the company of, and being polite to, a nazi a month or so ago... I mean seriously when was I going to find that one out? A my cousins wedding (to a jew)? Thankfully the swastikas were tatooed on his knuckles so pretty obvious and no need to remove his clothing...
