If they make Bond black, bisexual, transgender....you know any of those things which are 'right on' then they take away the authors interpretation of the character.
Ian Fleming did not write it for any of those current, trendy social mores.
Undoubtedly those things existed in Flemings time, but they were not openly discussed or considered....some of them you could go to prison for....so they do not feature in his writings.
I am sick of the meddling, twiddling PC crowd. I wish they would disappear up their own hairy bum holes.

Ask any healthy heterosexual woman what she would like in a man and all JB's attributes would figure in her pattern.
If the gay, bisexual, transgender want heroes, or thrilling role models, then they had better set to and write their own...do not steal Ian Flemings iconic character.

totally agree margaret. these people were around since time began. for me its live and let live but i do not want their actions and way of life shoved down my throat at every opportunity. not bothered about any ones sexuality but should not get all the publicity that goes along with it. even her indoors has stopped watching emmerdale due to the frequent story lines on the subjects and she is similar to my views on the subject.

That sums things up very well far as i'm concerned. also the bosses view.

Amen to that Brother! Must admit to watching very little of the UK's telly offerings due to the constant flood of "inclusivity", in fact, I'd say its gone so far that to my mind what I believed all my life to be the norm is now virtually not represented. Instead they pump out the pap they do & it annoys me that these attitudes are forced onto the public with no chance for redress as all the supposed "Controling bodies", adhere to & are implicit in pushing the common purpose agenda.

Re: Oh Hum its a funny old world

the word GAY stands for as good as you. agree but i,m as good as you also. wish the media could get its head round this also. getting to be an under represented part of the community. white, straight and northern.

No, it does not stand for anything.
The word gay means happy, joyful...it does not mean homosexual.
The homosexual community have hijacked this word and given it their own meaning.
Why do they not like the term homosexual...it is what they are.
I have no axe to grind with those people who are attracted to those of the same sex.
I just do not want to have to navigate through their agenda's.
What they do in the privacy of their own space is no concern of mine.

Re: Oh Hum its a funny old world

Twice today, different times different people, brazenly walked into a public house with their daughter's affectionately cuddling a doll.
Which of the authorities should I have reported them to?
Social Services?
Gay rights?
Human Resources? (After all the bar staff will have been traumatised and their feelings need to be considered).
Trading Standards? (Some low life must be supplying these disgusting items).

OR

Do I just think ah bless, normal couples bringing in up their children, NORMALLY!

Even worse, an irresponsible parent has brought a child in cuddling a teddy (surely a sign of beastiality!)

I just hope some depraved soul hasn't the nerve to bring a child in loving a golliwog!
