This has been discussed in another thread, but Fleming's L&LD was censored even during its original printing in the US. The New York portion of the book was susceptible to cuts of content, with the entire discussion between a black man and his girlfriend removed from the text and the "controversial" chapter title of #5 changed.
I'm personally curious how much longer the Korean content of GF can last.
Quoted, because it's the truth.
Unbelievable. There's many apologists out there for the PC or SJW movement (and some on this forum), but you can see in just this newest example how much of a weapon fake outrage can be in our current climate and the role it can have in manipulatively ending the careers of people who are innocent of any wrong doing. Seder joins a long list of bright and clever commentators whose obvious comments of derisive commentary were spun into a genuine view they had by those who want their voices silenced, and the mainstream media is too worried about their already poor reputations and audience or sponsor backlash to take their heads of their arses to see what's really going on. What the hell is this world spiraling into?

Not sure how the world of F1 works but I'm pretty sure these girls haven't been people trafficked into it and see this as a great gig with lots of perks.
But what do I know? Soon being a gorgeous bird will actually be outlawed anyway. Thanks to the Weinsteins and Trumps of the world appreciating the female figure pretty much already is.
Viva la revolution when all women will be forced to look like a combination of Hattie Jacques and Bella Emberg for the sake of inclusivity.
If you're going to ban F1 girls then you might as well close down the whole fashion industry (which I'm sure is far more damaging to the girls psyche) while you're at it given that is based on the wholly correct premise that people like looking at fit girls.
"Daddy, I'm not going to college or university so dont worry about the fees. I want to be a gorgeous bird and hold a numbered board in front of a car."
How would I deal with this situation and what would I think of a culture that provided such pathetic role models for school girls. It's time we grew up and moved on.
I'm all in favour of that. I know the Yanks love it (and I can understand - having to sit through their dismal sports, a bit of eye candy is a welcome distraction) and they do it at pathetic clubs like London Utd but if I'm at a big match I'm concentrated on that and don't want a few birds from the local dance school prancing about.
A nice pie or hotdog (with dubiously sourced meat) and Gerry and the Pacemakers cranked up to 11 more than enough pre match entertainment for me thank you very much.
I'm all for gorgeous girls in various states of undress but the serious business of a football match is not one of them.
Unless it was Eva Green, Gemma Arterton, Lea Seydoux and (sorry Bazza) Maryam herself doing the full Monty then I don't want to be distracted from the business at hand.*
*The exception being England in the business end of a tournament (by that I mean knockout stages onwards Woy) and then all of the above can sling their hook. To quote AP himself when faced with a Ursula Andress offering herself to him on the hard shoulder 'Put your top on and get out.'
Matt Damon has stated in an interview that there's abuse and abuse: smacking a woman on the bottom isn't the same as raping her. Consequently, some actresses have reacted via Twitter...
[because people don't know how to properly communicate anymore; they just "Tweet" like it means something]
... stating that abuse is abuse, no matter what.
I guess Goldfinger is at risk now of being censored once the knight of PC-dom get it their way.
It's like the Lara Croft models, people who never played the games, let alone knew who or what Lara Croft was, got outraged, so the idea was done away with. It was too much hard work to ask Allison Carrol, Karima Abebibe or any of the previous models if they felt demeaned. Oh no, can't do that, nothing must come before outrage.
Punching hurts. Killing is painless. Surely the former is much worse.
Depends on the method of killing old boy.
Brady shoots them in the head. Decent.
I don't know what you're talking about, old boy...
Don't you mean, "old man"?
There is licorice between my toes, old boy. Help yourself.
No, really!! Those ARE toes.
