A surgeon who needed to wipe his brow during an operation decided to use the nurses cleavage. :lol:

I can't believe the number of school kids walking home in soaking wet shirts and blazers! I'd recommend 3 minutes a day off the Xbox and on the weather forecast. :lol: :lol:

Meanwhile, the thunderstorm crackpot is spending all afternoon in torrential rain watching the sky. Apparently, I missed a streak of lightning a mile away, which was followed by a crackle of thunder. :lol: :lol:

The latest in shocking revelations that most people probably knew already.
What next? Fighter pilots fondle young RAF trainee's?
These high-functioning, talented people are encouraged to believe they are right. No surprise then that they carry that too far. With status comes responsibility. The latter isn't part of the training from what I know.
I've only known one surgeon, but he once floored me by saying "can you cut someone open if you're not sure about your ability?". And that's the issue for these people, confronted on a daily basis with life and death in your hands.It's not that surprising that they go a bit bonkers. Perhaps!
What is interesting is these stories of abuse are almost always about male perpetrators.
Are men really that despicable? Always! Never a nasty woman?

Ever noticed martial artists always go to their training centre, come back and pop into the supermarket on the way home in their full combat gear?

It would be quite intimidating if they weren't all 10-years-old. :lol:

She says it happened several times in the same operation. When she asked if he'd like her to get a towel, he said no, this is much better fun. :lol:

Shouldn't laugh really. She was powerless to do anything while a patient was on the table and later felt complaining would end her career. But I think personally, I'd risk my career, make a complaint and make life hell for him for the rest of his.

I say again.
Are men really that despicable? It's nearly always a man that is reported as doing awful things! Never a woman?
As a man am I part of a dysfunctional segment of society?

Some men are, but so are some women. For obvious reasons they don't beat us up or pinch our bums but they can still be right bitches. :)

The latest allegations are in an around people operating in a high-stress environment dominated by men. We know now full well, women are equal. Why do men feel this entitlement to abuse?

2nd blue tit sighting all year today. Normally they move in clouds, peck around window frames and even peck at their own reflection. This year? Zip.
Somethings gone badly wrong.
Poor things!

A man's been arrested in Spain for groping a journalist on live TV. I blame Rubiales for setting the example. :)

If you don't need consent to kiss you wouldn't need consent to put your hand on a woman's bum. :)

Rubiales ordered to appear in front of a judge every two weeks - how humiliating. :lol: :lol:

What's really astonishing about the whole affair is that had he humbly apologised and just put it down to overexcitement following a World Cup win, it's possible it could have blown over quickly without too much attention and he may even still be in his job!

Not really hindsight, it's what I would have expected anyone to do, at least not knowing what an arrogant git he is. :)
