Depends whether you class testicles as meat?

Nuts aren't meat. Obviously.

BM is correct, of course they're not meat. Haven't you ever heard the expression 'meat and two veg'?

Facebook in ban on
Demi bump By JAMIE PYATT

A MUM-to-be photographed in Demi Moore's famous naked pregnancy pose was left stunned - when Facebook bosses BANNED it from her profile.

Angela Hurst got a professional snapper to set up the tasteful shot.

Just like Ghost actress Demi - whose photo was on Vanity Fair's cover in August 1991 - she covered her modesty.

Angela was so proud of the result she made it her profile picture.

Just three days later Facebook removed it because its terms of use bar "nudity".

Angela, 34, of Lee-on-Solent, Hants, said: "The picture was a bit of fun and not at all seedy - all my 'bits' were covered.

"I had a lot of messages from people, particularly women, saying how much they loved it.

"It was something nice to remember my pregnancy by and was not sexual - and if Demi Moore can do it, why can't I?"

Husband David, 32, said: "The picture's lovely. This is a huge over-reaction."

A spokesman for Facebook, which has 500million users worldwide, said: "Our rules prohibit nudity on the site."

Most important part of the article...the fact that a man is pregnant:

I'm going to this, the highest profile 'soccerball' ever to be held in Tucson. It's actually quite exciting for me to have some almost proper-ish football coming to Tucson. Sort of.

They are advertising the 'big' names, Thierry Henry and the two Mexican internationals, Omar Bravo and Rafa Marquez, but I'm looking forward to seeing Sven's mate Hans Backe on the touchline as Red Bulls manager, and Ryan Smith turn out for Kansas along with his team mate, none other than 'Casino' Jimmy Nielsen... :icon_bigg

I'm sorry FF, I refuse to read any of that. I invented my own rules for this thread and the first one entails that picture being moved to the Lovely Ladies thread. Immediately.

Hubba! Hubba!

It's not really Sandwich; it's on the outskirts of Ramsgate.

I've walked along the beach from Deal to Sandwich today. With the weather down here, the poor thing probably froze to death.

What on Earth makes you think that will piss off any atheist?

 

[The Major]

What on Earth makes you think that will piss off any atheist?

After the 2001 Census, the figures collected were used to justify the following policies:

Increase in the number of faith schools
The continuation of collective worship in schools
The public funding and support of ‘interfaith’ and faith-based organisations above the support offered to secular organisations
Suggestions of an increase in the role of faith in Britain under the coalition government
The appointments of government advisors on faith
Contracting out public services to religious organisations
Keeping the 26 Bishops in the House of Lords as of right
Continued high number of hours dedicated to religious broadcasting
Specific consultation at government and local level with ‘faith communities’ over and above other groups within society
Continued privileges for religious groups in equality law and other legislation

I was asking how you as an individual would be able to piss off any atheist with the way that you, privately, filled out your census form.
