I was seriously wondering the other night, why do the Oscars have a "Best Actor" and "Best Actress" award?The Commissioner of the London Fire Brigade thinks we should stop saying the word ‘fireman’ to encourage more women and BAME applicants.
Should we stop using the word? Would it really make a difference?
What on earth is a BAME?
Should we just stop using the term man?
Has the world gone mad?
Given all the PC stuff surround gender identity thought crime. A chairman is now just a "chair" that you can't sit on; in the media actresses are always now called "actors"; firemen are all being replaced by firepeople...
So why is it OK for the Oscars to separate actors and actresses with their own awards? Surely it should just be "Best Actor" and that's that?
After all we're not allowed to call actresses "actresses" now, we must call them "actors" (apparently "actress" is a homophobic racist slur used by the Nazi alt-right). So shouldn't we all boycott the Oscars, or at least wear a balaclava and hide our faces whilst we watch on TV?
