That was quite a weird thing for me to have said in retrospect, but the hell with it. If anyone does seriously want to just turn up, i'm cool with it. We're all adults, there will be... well, probably not lots because i don't have that many friends, but at least 20 other people there.
As mentioned previously, it's going to be a poker tournament but there will be other Western-themed activities. If anyone makes a move on the object of my affection, there may even be a duel.

Yes, go to the cowboy party with the man who seems quite fixated on broads chicks slappers women and getting them to sleep with him by pretending to like things. Make sure you get lots of pictures of you together for the news Insta

My feelings for Daisy are actually entirely pure. I've never had to pretend to like anything to impress any other woman, and to be honest, 'impress' was a poor choice of words.
It's more about her being able to walk into the break room, see me doing something new and unexpected, and wanting to talk about it. I wasn't entirely expecting my rendition of smooth criminal on a thumb piano to lure her into bed, like some sort of weird pied piper.
And to be fair, i've fully committed to each hobby i've picked up. Except smoking, that was included as a sort of joke.
I still don't see anything wrong with words 'broads' or 'chicks'. I did use slappers a few days ago which is maybe a little questionable, but it describes a certain type of woman and wasn't a generalisation.
Likewise, i've not long come out of a long-term relationship, so certainly haven't been obsessed with getting women to sleep with me. Yes, i've had a few dates with a woman i met on an app that i've spoken about, but nothing has happened.
This whole misogyny thing is tenuous and quite stupid, really.

Broads is of the time period i obviously aspire to live in. I don't think i've used the word since someone last made a fuss about it, despite my own thoughts that it's perfectly fine. Chicks, okay i can see why it might offend someone. I'll not use it going forward. Bitches is obviously quite offensive, so i wouldn't use that. I'm afraid i would use 'females' because i really like Friday Night Dinner. Femoids just sounds idiotic.

Broads is of the time period i obviously aspire to live in. gremmi's theory is starting to hold some weight Except no, it isn't. My interest in the 1940's Noire scene is purely aesthetic, and a tiny little bit of the slang. Broads, copacetic etc. What i'm explicitly not into is 'beating women with impunity', racism/inequality and dying in world war 2. And to make that kind of a judgement based on the way someone dresses is really dumb. Additionally, i don't know that much about 'incel' culture but none of them seem to dress like me anyway.

But calling women broads is linked to how women were viewed and treated in that time period
I don't really care how you dress and I don't want to lay into you so I'm going to nope out but your views on women could do with some reflection

I honestly couldn't give a shit what you wear, Rodizzle. Like I said earlier the watch seems cool (if a little incomprehensible after a couple of beers)
You notice how nobody else comments on each other's clothing here? We never actually fucking mention what we're wearing, that's why...
Fair play for posting pics, but it was your own monologue that lead to you doing it.

It's going to be a spectacle for the ages. Just a bunch of the coolest people in Essex playing some cards, drinking some whiskey and enjoying ye olde pianey music and sepia tone photography.
If anyone has any ideas for other attractions inspired by the old west, let me know.
And fair enough. I'll have a think about whether or not the word broads is really okay.
I didn't mind posting the photograph Dfunked. I'm quite comfortable with my look, and do have an interest in clothing and accessories.

To be clear I don't think rod is an actual incel/alt-right whatever, but it's one of those unfortunate co-opting situations where, as fun as it is to cosplay wish.com Sam Spade, the aesthetics and general wistful reminiscences of times gone past have somewhat of a blot on them by usually being heralded by bros who believe in "tradwives" and all that bullshit. Coupled with some weird comments like the slapper one just now and it's getting into the realms of people who post shitty memes like this unironically. So, do you by all means, but like someone else said, maybe a bit of reflection and self-awareness added to it.
