Lewis Hamilton

[mids]

Is he a massive transphobe? He's been forced to abase himself before Twitter and beg forgiveness. His sin was criticising his young nephew for wearing a princess dress, which was videod and put online. Should he be forgiven or should we destroy him?

[moggyonspeed]

He was criticising his young nephew.

The problem with that is that there are a large number of people out there who think that, by extension, he is criticising cross-dressers / trans people across the board. It is a base society indeed that is so intent on upholding the rights of minorities that the rights of the individual to hold an opinion, to express it, and to account for it under public scrutiny are being threatened.

What does Hamilton's apology mean? That he no longer holds those views? That he shouldn't have expressed his opinion on social media? That it was unwise to single out his nephew? Deep down, I struggle to believe that he no longer holds the views he espoused in the original tweet but. hey, a Pyrrhic victory to the PC brigade. Again.

He’s a sad bastard.

It’s just dress up, child’s play!

[reverend]

Why would he apologise, just tell the snowflakes to go fek themselves!

[mids]

He's utterly spot on of course. He shouldn't have done it on social media though. He should have privately and gently persuaded his nephew that boys don't wear princess dresses.

[reverend]

Naa sod that, if he wants to say boys don't wear dresses then that's up to him, you don't have to agree with him, it's his opinion so why should he apologise for it, we have people apologising left right and centre these days for the most fekin ludicrous crap, if the snowflakes whine give them something to be really offended about, maybe that way the precious feks can understand the difference!

A reminder of why Lewis Hamilton is a pathetic sad sack, particularly on the subject of princesses.

So he seemed to like Di, not a problem.

[flatandy]

Nah. He's a monstrous bellend.

And he's also wrong about the kid. Kids should be allowed to wear whatever they want in dress-up.

Who'd have thought that someone who has hundreds of millions of quid for driving round in circles would not be very well adjusted?

[nobody]

Because he appears to like Di doesn’t really qualify him as a bellend, as for driving around in, not quite circles, faster than anyone else, is a more skilful quality than The mighty Mo, who only runs in circles like a mad dog chasing his tail.

if his relatives want to dress in clothes of the contradictory gender, I’m fine with that too, I hope they don’t get all hissy if someone mistakes them for the wrong gender.

Exactly. If little boys want to wear princess dresses after succumbing to BBC propaganda, they shouldn't be surprised when they're not allowed to play football or climb trees.

bit up himself for a driver.

Let kids be kids. And dress up as whatever they want. It’s just child’s play.

And even worse, what kind of uncle drags their niece/nephew all over social media?

What. A Bellend.

Nah he’s a bellened for getting prissy about a boy wearing a princess outfit. If a boy can dress as a robot, cowboy or dinosaur botnsonsure why a princess outfit is out of the question.

Boys can of course dress up any way they want. Pirate, Viking, cowboy, spaceman, Spiderman etc etc.

A few years ago, my SiL, who's lovely but a bit Guardianista, bought her first grandson an expensive looking toy cooker for Christmas. He played with it a bit, probably just for the novelty, but soon went back to his cars with which he is mildly obsessed. I couldn't have been happier if he was my own son.

Yes, completely agree with you there.

Boys can and should dress up as anything they want - nurses, catwoman, sailors, princesses, ponies etc.

And adults need to get their own hang-ups out of kids play. They’re just kids. That’s it. Bloody hell my brother used to always try on my clothes when he was young and my cousins heels. Now he’s one of the blokeist blokes on the planet and dies of embarrassment when you mention his child play.

My brother wanted a kitchen set when he was young and my father forbade it. So my mom brought it for “me.”

I never touched it and my brother played with it all the time.

My fri nd brought her son a toy vacuum cleaner and broom and dustpan set to get him to leave the real ones alone. He loves them.

I don’t think I said otherwise

Yes too right. Xey are ungendered until xey are ordered to wear princess dresses or other girls clothes by the feminist cultists at pre and primary school. Xey're toxic small boyishness must be brutally stamped out until xey are left to xeir own devices and dress up in princess dresses. It is of course entirely up to xem what xey wear or play with as long as it's approved of femicultural toys and clothes. "Boys" must have the complete freedom to choose girls clothes and toys.
